Newton needed an apple to discover the Law of universal attraction.
I needed Alex Carter to discover the attraction.
Alex Carter, THE BAD BOY. Do I need to say more? Probably not, because everyone knows him.
He's the typical bad boy with bad behavior, leather jacket, and that dark aura that makes almost every girl drool over him, along with the fact that he is strong, handsome, with brown hair, tattoos, and a smolder look that can set you on fire.
But he's also known for fighting, dealing drugs, vandalism, and so much more that make everyone fear him.
He screams Danger. He is Danger.
Me, Elena, on the other hand, I'm a nerd. Do I need to say more?
Well, there isn't much to say. Nobody knows me. I'm invisible.
I always play it safe and follow the rules.
I have two friends, and I've been bullied several times because I'm shy, awkward, clumsy, and I have good grades, attributes that don't really help in high school.
Everything separates us, or so it seems, yet an irresistible attraction pulls us together.
People will say 'opposites attract', but maybe we have more in common than we've thought, and that's what draws us together...
Like 2 free electrons, will our encounter result in a rare, beautiful, perfect balance, or will it cause a ravaging explosion?
Warning for strong language and mentions, and some steam in the chapters.... ;)

I turn around and look into his blue eyes, searching them. When I'm certain that he's not lying, butterflies erupt in my stomach and I gulp audibly.
His fingers move from playing with the tips of my hair to my cheeks. I wrap my arms around his neck and pull him closer. His other hand moves from my waist to my jawline and he trails his thumb along my bottom lip.
He pulls my face closer until I can smell his minty breath. His eyes close and so do mine. My head tilts to the side slowly and I feel his lips on mine.

Natalie Bennett: a sassy 17-year-old, who, after leaving her home in Paris, starts at Lakewater high in America. Natalie is humble, sarcastic and smart, funny and forgiving. She complains when she has to wear dresses, heels and make-up and she can't stand annoying fake girls.
Alex Collins: cocky, egocentric, and a magnet to the female race, that is, all girls except Natalie, who can't stand him. Alex is a player, a model, and a singer. His family is rich. He's the definition of a bad boy, but behind those ray bans hides an intelligent soft side.
But when they unexpectedly bump into each other both Natalie and Alex begin to realize there might be more layers to the other than they expected.
