Ally's past is more damaged than most. One incident in particular though, has pretty much condemned her to a life of loneliness and mistrust. 

James' childhood has hardened him to become the shelled and private person he is today. 

When their paths collide, they realize that they share something in common: Both of them hide more than what they show the world.

She believes that dancing will be the only thing left that makes her happy. But will that change when the guarded yet witty law student unexpectedly waltzes into her life?

She spends years flying under the radar, keeping her feelings for Nathan hidden. A jig that doesn't hold for too long, and Nate wastes no time vocalizing how much he despises her fantasies. Heartbroken, Peri tries to live her life, navigating through High School, as well as, Nathaniel's illegitimacy, a trail which ultimately finds its way back to her. On their quest to find Nathan's real Father, Peri finds Nathan yearning for her, the same exact way she spent junior high yearning for him. The only question is: will Peri take her shot at a fresh start with someone new, or, resume the dance that Nathan's had her in for years?

By Your Side (Preview) by LiAWake

Sometimes the biggest threats are family. James, a soon-to-be high school graduate and ranking member of the locally known outcasts, is about to take the next step in his life. Reflecting on his past leading up to this, he regretted not doing what every other high schooler seemed to do, from constant partying and experimenting with drugs, but what he deemed most important-having a relationship. Watching his childhood crush, Hannah, who he was once inseparable with, becoming the most popular girl in school and leaving him in her rearview mirror. Fighting with his emotions and wondering how he'd ever rise above the seemingly more qualified fish in the sea resulted in James being consumed by his internal darkness. The only thing able to pull him out of it is his best friend, Clare-Hannah's outcast cousin. With everyone going their separate ways, it presented one final chance. James is forced to decide if Hannah's worth chasing after and keeping his darkness at bay. Or letting her go and fully giving in to his self-destructive ways.
