(Previously titled His Game)
~~●~~
When April Winters gets caught up in a dangerous car accident, her entire life is flipped around. After spending months in coma, she wakes up to realize that she has been diagnosed with amnesia and has no full remembrance of who she was. Now she has to handle being tormented and bullied by the notorious Asher Black for reasons unknown to her. Will she ever find the forgotten reason for his intense hatred? Will she ever find out who she really was without toppling off the verge of insanity?
Asher Black is cruel, undeniably attractive, and April's biggest tormentor. The sole reason behind her scars, and the sole reason behind her smile. His hate is driven by the ghosts of his past, and burning desire for revenge; to play her in a game the same way she did. However, as Ernest Hemmingway once said, "All things truly wicked start from innocence."

Now being 17 years old Kyle Everest still holds this unknown resentment against his next door neighbor Olivia Kingston, and torches her in any possible way he can, but what would happen when Olivia finally gets sick of letting Kyle torcher her unexplainably? Everything would change in the matter of one day when Olivia accidentally gets them both locked in the principals office in search of the same thing: The truth. But while staying together in a cramped room with no phones and surviving off nothing but the secret stash of their principal, while the entire schools is off on spring break, secrets will be told and feeling will unravel. And let's not forget, hate letters will be sent. This book may seem light and fun but it has some mature scenes and dark thoughts that I'd suggest for viewers 16+Complete
