Cassy Elle Anderson has never been one to gamble with her heart. Love, with all its whispered promises and cruel betrayals, has always been a game she refuses to play. Too much had been lost before, too many scars etched beneath her skin. And yet, two years ago, everything changed. Ben Mills stepped into her life-captivating, impossible to ignore-woven into her world through her best friend, Paul.
She told herself it was nothing. A fleeting fascination. But no matter how fiercely she tried to bury it, the ache remained-a slow, smoldering ember she dared not fan into flame. Until one day, Ben said the words she never expected to hear, his confession forcing her to stand at the edge of something she never thought she'd want.
Just when she convinces herself to leap, Blake Handerson emerges like a storm, creeping into her thoughts, unearthing buried doubts, and turning her world upside down, leaving her torn between two choices.
Love, trust, betrayal-nothing is as it seems. As the walls around Cassy's heart begin to crack, she must face one question: Who truly deserves her heart?
"Once you turn the first page, there's no turning back."
Gawking two guys in a hot-blown make-out session in the mathematical section of the library was not what I expected my first day after Winter breaks to be like.
And didn't realize that seeing them was about to change my whole high school experience...
Lillian Smith, the shy, quiet, nerdy girl, gets transferred to the most prestigious high school in her town, West Hills High, on a scholarship in her junior year. She spends half of her year hiding from the rich kids at her school to prevent any trouble. But one accidental encounter at the library with the popular bad boy of her high school changes things for her.
One little secret leads to another until Lillian gets stuck with the secrets of the popular group, The Clichés. The burden of the secrets becomes heavy, and Lillian doesn't know what to do with them anymore.

"What's your name?"
"Lillian... Lillian Smith."
"Okay, Lillian, so this is what going to happen next." He crossed his arms. "I'm going to let you go and you-" he held his finger at me, "- will tell no one about this." I bobbed my head. "And if I hear even a single word uttering from your mouth about us..." He gestured between him and Toby. "I will-"
"- Kill you." I finished for him and give him a thumbs up. "Got it."
"Then it's settled!" Toby announced, clasping his hands and beamed. "It's going to be our little secret."
