Lost In It|✔️
Ethan and Linnea have been close friends and neighbors since kindergarten, which is a unique situation. As seniors at Starlight Woods High, the drama escalates and unnecessary competition is unveiled. ~ Just so you guys know, I am editing this book because it is way too rushed. I wrote this around early seventh grade so there will be spelling errors at the time. Besides, I was trying to write my first actual "long story" since I always used to write two-page long stories on Loose Leaf paper. Also, I was only twelve:) Thanks, SDSComplete
