Quinn Crimson Campbell lives a hard life. From the moment her father left six years ago and took all the money, they've been a poor family. And then her sister left two years later, embarrassed and ashamed of the family she had to live in. Then it was down to only Quinn and her mother. 

But what Quinn doesn't know is the secret her mother has been hiding the moment she was born. Secrets that are ugly. Uglier than the ugliest truth. And she's been told lies. Lies prettier than the prettiest flower. 

Four years passed in a state of hard work, bills to pay, and emptiness. But during all that time, nothing happened, until Quinn's final year of high school. Threats are said, lies are revealed, secrets are unraveled, unusual friendships are made, people are killed.

But what's going to happen next? That's for you to find out

She then learns what it really meant to get the raw end of life. Follow as Alexandra deals with more then she thought she could handle. Alexandra might be strong willed but nothing could possibly prepare for what was to come. [Please keep in mind that this story is a very fast paced story. 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•

After her parent's divorce she swore she would never fall in love. The two of them quickly turn their relationship from just friends to friends with benefits.
