Seventeen-year old Alex Carter has been dealt the worst cards in life. She is tired, tired of feeling numb. She wants to let loose and enjoy at least a few months in her life, where she doesn't have to worry about someone in the hospital and how much longer they may have to live. She wants to feel. To heal. To mourn and most of all stop feeling numb.
James Smith is not your average bad-boy high school senior. He's not arrogant, cocky, rich or handsome. Well, maybe not the last part. He's had a happy life as long as he can remember. His father left his family when he was 12 years old. His mother stepped in and played the role of both his father and mother. He helped raise his 5-year old sister and guided her. James doesn't believe in love, having experienced it first-hand and what a disaster it turned out to be.
What happens when James mother suddenly falls sick and he doesn't have the money to pay for her treatment and coincidentally, as if it were a miracle, someone offers him money, money to break Alex's heart?
Will sparks fly or will they end up burning each other more than they have been burnt themselves?

Hopelessly Devoted
"Never call a girl a bitch," I glared into his eyes as he opened them, piercing into me, the bright blue drink I had just poured over him still dripping from his dark hair. "Or she just might act like one." I gave him one last sarcastic smile before pushing by him and walking away, practically strutting.

Infallible Mistakes
'I don't want your money, asshole.' I seethe as I shove him away from me. 'What you want and what you need are two very different things, mon amour.' He says, a smirk adorning his features. 'Fine,' I huff, 'I don't need you money, then.' I cross my arms over my chest, trying not to get distracted by the fact that his body was caging me to the wall. 'And don't act like you know me better than I do-' 'That's the problem, isn't it? I want to get to know you better, I want you to let me in,' He blurts out, 'But you're too damn stubborn to let me.' I look at him, my eyes wide, stunned for a moment. The way he says it makes me forget who I really am talking to. Is this really the man who would belittle people for the fun of it? It felt like he was exposing a silver of himself that, somehow, cared. ----- Lana Auclair, a girl who is troubled by her past and present but still manages to hide it from the world, who earns money in a way that is both dangerous and illegal.
