Autumn Sommers has had a rough past, but her best friend Louis Tomlinson has always been there to get her back on her feet and keep a smile on her face. Little does she know, that Louis is secretly in love with her, but doesn't want to tell her in fear of ruining their friendship.
When a certain curly-haired new kid comes to school, Autumn is instantly mesmerized by his stunning looks and boyish charm. She falls for him fast, and hard. Louis becomes jealous and starts avoiding her, and she is torn between her best friend and her crush, who seems to like her back.
Autumn's already sad home life starts to crumble as well, and without Louis there to comfort her, she feels lost and even more depressed than usual. With little going her way, Autumn is constantly fighting the depressing tragedy she calls life and trying to go back to the joy she had when she was young; but with so much going wrong, is there really a way of finding happiness?
Liam can't help but stare. This boy is the epitome of everything he wanted to avoid in his life, but this feeling that creeps into his chest makes him think that he was wrong all along.
The way he concentrates while he draws, his lips parted and tongue pushing at the back of his teeth, jaw loose and his brow furrowed as his fingers smudge the trace of the pen make Liam's throat suddenly too dry.
Sophia never made him feel like this.
Or:
They're forced to spend the summer together after so many years. The air is too hot and the sea is too cold and Liam can't decide if it's because of the weather or because of this guy that doesn't resemble his best friend anymore. Liam tries to breathe but Zayn won't let him and they try so hard to hate each other that they end up screwing it up and falling in love instead.
