Luke hasn't had it easy. At the age of seven his mother died of an overdose and he was put into care. Until he was 18, he was shipped in and out of different foster homes. This took a toll on his behaviour, schoolwork and relationships. Now at 21, after being released from prison, he is homeless. He crashes with friends as much as possible but is frequently left sleeping on the streets. It's been like that for nine months now, after all, who wants to employ someone with a criminal record?
Katie has a lot of demons. Three months ago, she attempted to kill herself. No one saw it coming. Katie was the kind of girl that was always smiling and had hundreds of friends. However, she was struggling. Ever since the sudden death of her father ten months previous she'd been finding it difficult to cope. Despite the medication and the therapy sessions, Katie feels like she's spiralling out of control.
When Katie meets Luke she feels hopeful for the first time since the passing of her father. However, as their friendship develops and their troubled pasts are revealed things begin to get complicated. Katie and Luke are two people that would normally have never met. Will their story have a happy ending, or will they cause each other to crash and burn?

Today I'm turning my fiction to reality. ❣️•••❣️ Excerpt: Just as I was about to seek shelter under some building's roof, the tires of a car come to a halt, I wonder who might pity the lonely girl walking in the rain. The passenger window rolls down, and I spot the most unexpected person seated behind the wheel. "Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?" Eyebrows raised expectantly. He sounds annoyed, like he regrets his decision to ever stop and help me. ❣️•••❣️ #5 in cynical #2 in loveandfriendship #1 in opinionated #4 in ihatelife #10 in nerdgirl #10 in HighschoolRomance #26 in GoodGirlBadBoy *contains mature themes. *contains cursing.Terminé

When you're a seventeen-year-old girl with anxiety disorder and a gorgeous, popular girl that absolutely hates your guts for who-knows-what reason bullying you whenever she gets the chance, Anna Falls has no choice but to face reality.... her life sucks. But the little sparks of hope that build up her optimistic, bright soul convince her otherwise. She will always think of one thing and that there is hope in life. Maybe even a goal. It might not be visible now, but she knew that it became as clear as a bell when she ran into Luke Carter. Twice. In one day. Second time being literally into him. -- "How about fifty-fifty?" I offer in ragged breaths. "We could have just done this from the beginning," he replies, breathing heavily. We both chuckle. I gaze into his green eyes. "Your eyes are really beautiful," I blurt out. "I know," he smirks. "Are you always that egotistic?" "It depends," he answers, pushing my hair behind my ear. I smile at him. "You're welcome then." "I never said thank you." "And I said you're welcome. Are we done, Catherine Obvious?" -- #3 in annoying: 11/18/2020 #39 in teenagers: 01/03/2021 #8 in disorder: 01/12/2021 #110 in romance: 01/19/2021 All media used within the cover does not belong to me, but belongs to the app Canva.Terminé
