Targeted

"Emma," he almost whispers, his warm hands cupping my cheeks while his blue eyes dash back and fourth studying my every feature, "...I will never leave you, and you know why? Because I'm in love with you. Nothing can ever change that. You are my everything, the person I can rely on most in this world... and I'm never letting go."

Emma Corrie's label at Crestview High is definitely not something to be proud of. She has a real big reputation ー and not a good one at the most. She's known as the freak who doesn't go out on Friday nights, the girl who'd rather do her homework than go to some party, and the nerd who would rather die than have her perfect attendance ruined. She has no friends ー not including her mom, dad, and her brother, Alex. Not even one student speaks to her.

That is until Ryder Gold, aka the school's hottest "bad boy" gets dared by his two trouble making best friends, Jake and Kyle; to sit with Emma for the whole lunch period. Pretty much everything goes ape shit crazy from there. Emma screams at him, Ryder screams at her, and the crowd laughs as if it's the funniest thing they've seen in the whole entire world.

But what Emma doesn't expect is for Ryder and his two minions to keep harassing her. Bullying, pranks, dares. You name it, the three demons did it.

And Emma knew one thing, and one thing onlyーshe was targeted by the three most popular guys in her school.

And one of the boysーespecially, drives her absolutely crazy.

But a good kind of crazy.
