Now, being 17 still without Dakota , Ava has climbed the social latter. Ava is popular and Dakota hasn't been in the picture since freshman year, so when he comes back in their junior year he's something to talk about.

However, Ava now has a new secret of her own and becomes curious about Dakota. Will her resolve break down when she sees him? Will she be able to hide behind her smile like she has since freshman year? Or will his new and improved shy away attitude bring back memories that hurt her too much? Will he still be hiding behind his walls that he started building when it happened? Or will her secret come out and ruin something that hasn't even started?

She's only ever lived with her single dad and her three older brothers, which means she was bound to grow up more like them.

Until she realized that Alex decided to make her life a living hell. Well, that's what Brooklyn thought, at least... ___ "He leaned in and put a hand behind my head to kiss me, leaving me frozen and speechless. Almost instinctively, after a moment of processing, I stood on my tippy toes and replaced my fingers in his hair, my other hand on his neck. Butterflies exploded in my stomach, replacing my hunger for food, as he pressed me against a vacant wall. Without a word, he lifted me up while my legs wrapped around his waist, leaning in closer to him, even after there was no more space to fill."
