"It's not that I don't care or that I intentionally want to hurt peoples' feelings, It's just that over time I've learned that caring leads to heartbreak and heartbreak leads to downfall. I don't want to fall again- so I've decided to give up on love. I've given up on miracles. So don't bother trying to convince me that I, myself am one. I'm a bit too broken to fix nevertheless actually worth your time."
----
Autumn Knight is the definition of compelling- well, at least to Spencer Franklin she is. She's like no other girl with her quirky personality and startling sense of humor, because after all she is his childhood sweetheart. But that all seems to change when she drops her true identity for a cold, harsh, unbreakable cover when her life seems to start slipping from her grasp. With a jarring tragedy that causes her so called 'downfall', the once affectionate teenager has a need to break away from her now-toxic life which includes dropping her friends, quitting her true passion, and convincing herself that isolation is the key to preventing herself from further anguish.
But with a boy as persistent and relentless as Spencer, this grim mask that she puts on every morning will soon start to crumble; at least once the girl turned into stone finally meets the boy who can change it all.

The passenger window rolls down, and I spot the most unexpected person seated behind the wheel. "Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?" Eyebrows raised expectantly.

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
