Apart of every high-school, there are the nerds, slutty cheerleaders, the nobodys, the badboys, the emos, and of course the sex-crazed, sport driven players that are chased by literally all the girls. You may think, "Yep that does sound like a high school to me, but where do you fit in?"
Well, my high schools an exception to all the other high schools out there. We don't just have 2 or 3 players, we have 6, they all play baseball and they're all related. Oh and one more thing, I'm their little sister.
Ella is falling apart trying to live a "perfect" high school life. Then she meets Ren, who can see past her scars. Suddenly perfection isn't her only option.
