Jared Holmes is the only boy I have ever truly hated. 

When I was five, he put play-doh in my pigtails and my mom had to cut it out. Thus, leaving me with a ridiculous looking pixie cut. 

Seven years old, Katie and I were baking cookies for the schools bake sale. Jared was eight at the time and put worms in my cookie dough when I wasn't looking.

When I was eight Mr Holmes had built a tree house in the backyard for Katie and Jared. Nine year old Jared pushed me out of it and broke my leg. 

I started my period when I was thirteen. I was staying the night at Katie's and thank god she had started her period before I had but Jared overheard our conversation and called me 'bloody Mary' for the rest of the year. 

The first time I had a boyfriend, Jared told him that I had herpes and he broke up with me the next day over text. 

Let's just say that being Jared's little sisters best friend did not have its perks. Katie Holmes has been my best friend ever since we were both in diapers and her brother was a narcissistic asshole who also happened to be my older sisters best friend. 

Fun, huh? 

Jared made it his life's mission to make my life a living hell. He knew just how to get under my skin and he loved every single minute of it. We would argue practically twenty-four seven. People at school were used to us by now. But of course, nobody would say anything to Jared about it because he was, typically, the schools Captain for the hockey team. How cliche. 

But despite all of that...Jared Holmes was also the only boy that I had ever loved.

(Before You Leave #1) She was sent to boarding school over the smallest of mistakes... Okay, burning down your schools gym might have been a big one. But she didn't mean to do it. This time. And she's certainly no snitch. She's had a fine life. But she wanted something more. And so she created chaos. She was misjudged and misunderstood. And now she's the havoc of Birchwood Prep. They call her the devil's bitch, the principal's worst nightmare, and a screwed up whore. They can think what they want, JJ Ashton has heard these all throughout high school. She doesn't want a future, she just wants to take control of now. She's everything Birchwood Prep doesn't want, but is deemed to get after her Father decided it was the only option for her to find some discipline. She's not going to make it that easy for them. Gideon Andrews is the perfect student. Good grades, never missed a day, and never had been in trouble of any sort. He thinks life is great, but meeting JJ, she thinks life for him could be better. Less plain and vanilla. He hates her guts. It's mutual for her as well. But the headmaster has made it Gideon's personal mission to get her back on track and into a better life. She's allowed two screw ups, has to join a sports team, pass all of her classes with at least a C and get some friends before the year is over, or she will be held back. And she's not about to go another year in the hellhole called high school. (Marked mature for language and brief talk about sex.) *Still editing parts/making corrections* (Sequel is called: When I Stay)

Aiden Bennett was my first crush, my brother's best friend, hockey superstar, and now? He's my fake boyfriend. Running away to Boston was a chance for me to start anew, but as life goes, I find myself back in my hometown for my sister's wedding, where I'm unfortunately dragged back into the judgmental spotlight over my failed engagement. Enter Aiden, who much to my surprise, swoops in like a knight in shining armor to shield me from any more scrutiny. His plan you ask? Pretending to be my boyfriend. Yup, you heard that right. I didn't believe it either myself. Little did we know, a leaked photo from our night of playing pretend would spark a media frenzy, landing right into the hands of Aiden's agent who has a plan of his own. His plan? Use this charade to help polish Aiden's recently damaged image while securing a long term future in the league. Now I'm stuck in a whirlwind of public appearances, unexpected moments, and conflicting emotions. I've spent years keeping the feelings I had for him frozen away, but with every look, with every touch, he's chiseling his way back into my heart. As time goes by, I'm terrified that the lines between real and fake are going to blur, and after everything I've been through, could I be ready to take a chance on love again? Do I play it safe, or risk everything for the one person who has always been there, just out of reach? Aiden Bennett could destroy me, but maybe that's a risk I'm finally willing to take.

-- "You think you're so tough hm?" He says, getting closer to me. Both of our eyes lustful, deep and glued to each other's. "I am" I certify the one standing in front of me, our proximity making me nervous, but I'm refusing to show any signs of it. "You're testing my patience, princess." He admits as his hands lay lazily on my neck, I smirk at his sentence. "You're either leaving this place with a black eye or a hickey" He announces. "You wouldn't dare to kiss me." I bark back, his smirk growing as mine fades away. "Try me, Rora." He states, with the goddamn nickname. ---------- !! - It does contain mentions of sexual references, mature themes and strong verbiage.
