Hoping for love doesn't come that easily. It can sometimes lead to a mental break down in your bedroom cause you feel like theres no-one out there for you but then again it could lead to something beautiful. This story is set on the sunny coast of Australia, Gold Coast. Where heading to the beach is just down the road.
June believes in love but not for herself. She is almost 18, yet still has never had a boyfriend, let alone her first kiss. She hopes that there is someone out there who will love her but she doesn't see the likely hood of it.
A new boy moves to her school and she swears she has seen or met him before. He seems to drop hints that he knows her too but maybe thats just what her mind wants to hear through his words. Maybe he will show her that she can be loved more than a motherly or fatherly love can do.
Who knows what life has in stored for June but the only thing she can do is to Hope For Love.

However, there was a catch - his beloved was far away, and their relationship was bound by distance. Despite the odds stacked against them, the young boy refused to give up, fighting valiantly to keep the flame of their love burning bright. But fate is a fickle mistress, and three years later, tragedy struck. The boy received the heartbreaking news that his long-distance girlfriend had passed away. Consumed by grief and struggling to make sense of his loss, he turned to his diary for solace, seeking answers to the question that haunted him day and night: when did it all go wrong? As he embarked upon the daunting task of unraveling the enigma before him, our protagonist found himself confronted with an array of formidable obstacles that threatened to entangle him in their grasp and impede his progress. These challenges, which were to prove more insurmountable than he had anticipated, weighed heavily upon him, shackling his life and casting doubt upon his ability to overcome them. Thus began a journey of self-discovery, as the young boy poured his heart out onto the pages of his diary, reliving the memories of his past and grappling with the harsh realities of the present. From the highs of first love to the lows of crushing loss, his story is a poignant reminder of the power of love and the strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity.)Complete

Because instead of the most realistic scenario-him reading the letter and rejecting me privately-the last thing I'd ever expected to happen did. The letter doesn't end up in his locker. But in the locker of one of the most popular football players in the senior class, Ian Bale. Who also just happens to be my crush's older brother. Luckily, he promises to keep it a secret.
