New "it girl" Charlie Doyle had come a long way from the shy, awkward kid who befriended Elliot Reed outside her bedroom window. A long way from the hours spent binging High School Musical with Elliot in her basement, and studying AP Bio alone in her room.
Three years ago, Charlie ditched the glasses for contacts, saved up for her first curling iron, and turned her weekends at home in for a pair of glitzy pom poms and Friday night football games. And never looked back since.
But when unforeseen circumstances reunite the pair together, C and E are quick to learn that their story is about to be completely rewritten.
*~~**~~*
This is the story of a second chance friendship. The story of two teenagers navigating the world of first dates, broken promises, and unrequited heartbreak.
Join Charlie and Elliot as they discover the true meaning of friendship in a story that is bound to leave you crying, sobbing, and gasping for more.

Growing Pains
In the day-to-day trenches of high school, it is almost the default-setting to believe we are the main character of our own coming-of-age story. This is not wrong. It's just ours isn't the only story there is. The jocks, the nerds, the cheerleaders, the losers, the stoners, the fangirls, the skaters. Everyone's the realest most important person in existence, all of them, at the same time, first-person narrators to their own stories, stumbling into each other's plot lines, defying the status-quo, catalysts to ups and downs. A deconstruction of all the high school tropes and cliches written over the years, a deep-dive into the psyche of students trying to finish high school while going through irrevocable self-discovery, the most improbable of connections, and the insufferable pains of growing up.Complete
