Aleena Winslow is the girl next door; or at least everyone think's she is. Behind closed doors, she cries herself to sleep wishing she could leave this cruel world. To top that off, she still isn't over her ex-boyfriend Jake O'Brien, the jock who ripped her dreams and heart. Now promising to not let others hurt to the max, she has set up her future, carefully perfecting how her life will be for years to come.
What isn't in her planning is almost getting into a car accident, putting to risk her life and the new student, Colton Stokes, bad boy phenomenon. Handsome with charming blue eyes that makes you want to please him forever.
She isn't ready for her 'perfect future' to take a whole turn when she finds out he's her neighbour. But what she doesn't know is about Colton's depressing past, and that maybe-just maybe- he is more broken on the inside than she is.
They show each other another world, breaking each other's wall they had made over the years. They show each other that if they won't live in the present, they will miss all the breath-taking experiences that could shape who they are.

Before She Even Knows
''There is only one thing crossing my mind right now. If he hates me so much, then why the hell is he kissing me back?'' ----------------------- Emma White has always been kind of a loner. Her mother died giving birth to her and her father never really cared, always working in his successful company. That's why she decides to go to a college away from home, something she's been dreaming of since she can remember. However, what happens when at her very first day on campus, she crosses path with Noah Allen? He is rich, popular, cold, rude and a player just to start with. No surprise she calls him Mr. Grumpy. What is driving her insane though is that he's only too cold when it comes to her. After some not so pleasant moments and lots of glares, she tells herself that the best is to stay away from him, but it won't be that easy. After a disastrous kiss and hidden jealousy, she finds herself deeply involved into what is this frustrating boy. Add to that the fact that he is her roommates' childhood best friend and you can see drama from miles away. Noah claims to hate her ever since they met, and he doesn't mean her first day of college. He remembers her just fine from a couple of years ago and all the feelings are back. He knows she doesn't remember him and he'll use this as his leverage to do what he has to do. It's what he promised his father and himself, even if it means he has to pretend to care for her. All he cares is his family business. At least it's what he tells himself, until the feelings start getting too mixed and he ends up thinking of her more than he should. Maybe it's not all about business after all. He knows their history started before she even knows, what he didn't expect was for her to be so different from what he has always believed.Complete
