Jane Carter’s newest thing is she hates men. After waiting for her father to come to her 9th grade play, The Wizard of Oz, that he PROMISED to come to. He instead went to his friends house, had too much to drink, and died. Her mother didn’t pick up her phone for two weeks being on a business trip in India. Jane never really trusted adults anyways. She just puts her hard shell on while her mom is home for a brief three weeks, for the funeral, before returning to India leaving Jane for the summer. Jane feels abandoned, but that’s no new feeling to her. She lives through the first few weeks, having her best friend Lanie help her through it.
But Jane’s hate for men doesn’t change. Jane either averts her eyes from any male walking by, or stares at them with an intense hatred. “All men just betray women,” She often tells herself.
But can things change Jane meets the easy-going and kind Alex? Can Jane finally get over her grudge and loosen up and let go of the past?

I'm not here to write a romance with a happy ending, I'm writing to prove life isn't always perfect, in most cases it never is, especially when it comes to love. This is to prove that no matter how hard life gets, don't give up, don't push people away, stand up and show whoever or what ever it is that you aren't going to let them or it hinder who you are. Life is precious and we need to live it as we want to be, not as other people want us to be. Jane has been an outcast her entire life, she was orphaned at a young age and grew up without a family. When she turned 11, the Mavery's adopted her, for the past 6 years of her life she's been stuck living in their attic. They don't treat her like part of the family. Her stuck up step-mother Ana only ever points out her flaws, and Neal her step-father doesn't stop her. You'd think that would be enough to drive anyone over the edge, but now add the little 'brats' that torment her constantly. Cortlyn and Oscar. Cortlyn has always been jealous of Jane and her friendship with Adam, the boy next door. Oscar actually likes having another sister, but he always sides with his twin, he'd never admit to it. And Adam? He loves Jane, like loves, loves Jane, but of course she's completely clueless, after all it is her best friend...her only friend. But the real trouble starts when Jane finally stands up for her self, what's this crazy family going to do to her next? Like I said before life isn't perfect, you never know what's going to be thrown your way, neither does Jane.Complete
