To Love Asher Cole
Asher Cole could be more interested in a rock than Oakleigh Keating. And yet, Oakleigh could not be more interested in Asher. Oakleigh Keating has had a crush on Asher Cole, a close friend of hers, since before she could remember. Yeah, Oakleigh and every other girl that's ever met him. Star football player, criminally good looks and a panty melting smile? It's no wonder. But despite spending years trying to get him to notice her, Asher only seems to see Oakleigh as his little sister's friend or someone to tease or laugh at. But after seventeen years of hopefully pining after a boy who couldn't care less, Oakleigh decides it's time to grow up. Leave Asher Cole in the dust and move onto bigger and better things - like the Royal Albert Hall. Like her career as a ballerina. Like getting skinnier. Like the promise she made to her father. The answer is simple: Forget Asher Cole. So why can't she get this damn boy out of her head? --- TW: The main character of this book suffers from an undiagnosed eating disorder.

Now, Amelia is forced to leave everything she once knew behind and start over in a new school for her final year. Thrown into unfamiliar hallways and surrounded by strangers, Amelia is just trying to get by-until she crosses paths with Asher Lovings, the school's golden boy. Arrogant, charming, and everything she can't stand, Asher is the last person she wants anything to do with. So when they're paired together for a major school project, Amelia is certain her year has just gone from bad to worse. But sometimes, the most unexpected people sneak up on you, and you have no idea how you ever lived without them.
