Being with Richie was one of the worst things I'd ever done. He was heartless and cruel; with a 'love' that ruined me entirely. "God knows what is hiding in those weak and drunken hearts. I guess the loneliness came knocking, no one needs to be alone, oh save me." -Birdy (People, help the people.) Becca has never met anyone quite like Richie Moscow. He is everything a girl would want. Handsome, magnetic, compelling. But what happens when being with Richie starts to stem down a dark and scary road? What happens when Richie isn't as...sweet as he appeared to be? Between a hectic school life, a misleading boyfriend, a boy who doesn't talk much, and an obsessive father, Becca struggles to keep her head above water.

But, she tries her hardest to keep him away, even though they both know they're drawn to each other. Will she ever let him in or not? Of course she will, that's how these stories go.
