How can you have everything you could ever want, and still feel as though you have nothing? Rebel Daring, has everything any teenager would be lucky to have, she has great looks, a successful family, amazing friends, and a picture perfect future already planned out. She has everything. Yet she has nothing. Her looks aren’t cover girl worthy, more of a scene girl beautiful; earning vicious remarks, and bullying. Her parents may be successful but they are never there for her, never really cared to much about what she does or doesn’t do. Her friends are amazing yes, but only because they are in for the money that practically grows on trees for the Daring’s. A picture perfect future indeed, only not planned out for her… more like for her parents. Mom is a lawyer, and Dad is the owner of a TV show, her future is becoming a doctor, not really what she wants. Rebel can’t live her whole life living up to others expectations and pretending to be happy, she has to stand up, go her own way. Unfortunately, when she does she is not the obedient Rebel Daring everybody once saw; she is just Rebel Daring the misunderstood teenager.

Why did you take your life? Your family so dearly loved you. I will find out, just for you, and so that you will say that I'm perfect in every which way as you watch down on me. Or up at me, whatever side of your wonderful personality the Lord took. However, my father, there is this new kid. I can't seem to remember his name. He's the silent type, perfect prey for my friends and I. But he's different. In fact I have made a deal with him. He'll help me solve your mystery, daddy, on one condition; I change my ways. He's such a joke, a cute joke. Oh what must I be saying, he's absolutely insane. I don't need to change my ways, I'm perfect. If anything, I should be helping him. Oh I remember now, father. Aiden.

Looks 4. Wealth But what happens if you break rule no. 1 like Hayley did? Then you gotta work harder to make sure that you abide by the rule. And it will be harder if a distraction like Alex Gold comes to her life and turn it upside down. Maybe with the help of Alex, Hayley might see that her parents are wrong, perfection doesn't really matter to be happy. As stated, the book is under editing so read at your own risk.
