People at her old school saw her as odd and she only had two best friends that were left back in London when she moved. She is forced into a new school being the new girl and hating the people in the school.

A certain bad boy who happens to be her neighbor takes a keen interest in her. She's never liked anyone and has had no real interest in any relationship, only her studies that kept her busy. He's smart but acts like he's the greatest and he tries to impress her but she can hardly be impressed by things she can do. Distractions around every corner with the bad boy and the popular mean girl group that doesn't approve of the bad boys attention on her.Terminé

Echoes of Rejection: Learning to Love Again
Fifty-one rejections. Fifty-one times my heart was broken, including the girl I thought I'd never stop loving. After that, I swore I'd never fall for anyone again. Love became a game I refused to play - every smile, every kind gesture from a girl felt like a trap. Years passed. College came. I buried myself in studies, friends, and distractions, building walls so high no one could reach me. Until she appeared. Aya. Gentle, patient, and fearless in ways I hadn't known existed. She didn't chase me, didn't push. She simply stayed - quietly, persistently, until I realized the walls I'd built were trembling. But trust doesn't come easy. Fear lingers. Past heartbreaks echo. Can I let myself be vulnerable again? Or will my own walls keep me from the love I've always wanted? A slow-burn story of heartbreak, self-discovery, and the courage it takes to let someone in - even when you've sworn you never will.

The Edge Of Us
"Between what we were and what we became... lies the edge of us." *They weren't meant to cross paths. But fate doesn't ask for permission-it creates disasters.* Anaisha Sharma never wanted attention. Especially not in a school that thrived on whispers, reputations, and boys who thought the world revolved around their name. She had her past, her silence, and her plan: survive the year unnoticed. Enter Ekagr Malhotra - the brooding perfectionist with a mic in hand and heartbreak in his voice. Cold. Arrogant. Untouchable. And Dhruv Arora - quiet eyes, kind soul, and a heart that speaks in silence. Her comfort, her friend, her maybe. In a world of spotlights and shadows, Anaisha finds herself caught between two boys, two versions of herself, and a truth she's not ready to face. He was the chaos she never wanted. She was the calm he didn't know he craved. But on the edge of love, pride, and heartbreak - someone always falls first. - **Enemies. Friends. Almost lovers.** This isn't a love triangle. It's a slow unraveling of hearts that were never supposed to beat in sync. ---
