A drunken one-night stand becomes a secret summer no-strings fling between a reformed party-girl, Emily, heir to a rich and well-known family, and Nathan, a less fortunate mysterious man with a dark past.

[this is the first draft of my story. so, if there's grammatical mistakes and continuity errors, i apologize and i will be editing in the future.]
Lia James was living in a nightmare. It all started one night, when her mother was in a car accident, and never survived the night.
She spent the remainder of the summer in mourning. She never ate, or left her bedroom for that matter. When her Dad started to notice the new habits, he suddenly became worried and requests she lives with her two best friends for her senior year across the country. Hesitantly, she accepts.
Senior year was supposed to be the best year of her life. She made the Varsity Softball team, and she made tons and tons of new friends. That is, until she comes across Andrew Price: Local bad boy with a well-known reputation, and a heavy bank account.
From leather jackets, to secrets, to new relationships, Lia finally comes to terms that her senior year will never be normal. Especially when her best friends and Andrew have a very public hatred towards each other.
Will she manage to stay above the drama? Or will she fall into the crossfire of her best friend's feud?
