Our Broken Pasts [Editing] | #Wattys2017
Hailey Martin has never been one to stick out in a crowd. She's always been perfectly happy to hang out in a corner, listening to her favourite playlists with a book in her hand. But all that changes the day Will Williams, the school's resident bad boy, walks into her life. The last thing Hailey needs is arrogant (and charming) Will getting close to her and her past. Will doesn't need her to figure out the secrets that still haunt him. Will love be enough to risk everything for, or will the two lose each other to the past? ____________________________________ This story is complete. The original version will be staying up as part of draft one. I'll be posting second drafts of the book as I am able to write them. Feel free to read the first version while you wait for the second (which will be enhanced - plot, characters, etc.). Thanks for being patient and I hope you enjoy the story!
