“My name’s Caleb, but you probably already knew that,” he says, looking at me expectantly.
I shake his hand. “I’m Reagan.”
“I know,” he says.
There’s a moment of awkward silence before I tell him bluntly, “You don’t look old enough to take care of me.”
“Well, I am,” he says. “Barely.”

It does have around 40 chapters so it might not seem like it. But trust me that it is.] ||Full Disclosure|| I started the book in the end of 8th grade so it needs MAJOR editing. It also does have Sexual Chapters, as well as people of the same sex being together, murder, brutally torture talk of rape and sexual harassment. So if you do not wish to read things like that then this unfortunately isn't the book for you. ||You Have Been Warned|| First book in the Heart series. •Do Not Copy This Book In Anyway•Complete
