Jesse Smith has at long last escaped from his stifling life, now free of responsibilities he was once felt burdened with. Applewood is a blessing with its peace, quiet and laid back nature. He's finally in control of his life, until his eyes land on the beautiful girl with big brown eyes and a shy smile.

The Worst Part by circa1927

Max is over her ex. And over relationships. Really. She is. Just because she'd been in love with him since she was 16, and they were literally moments away from getting married at one point, why wouldn't she be over Evan? After all, he left her at the alter and absconded with her "best friend", Andrea. Max may be over Evan, but the little town she lives in, Brush River, is anything but. The nearly 2,000 residents won't let her forget their golden couple status, let alone live down the saddest, most humiliating day of her life. And then there's Sam. He's not quite a resident of Brush River, but he suddenly shows up, and starts to make himself at home. Quiet, a loner, and unforgivably good looking, Max can't help but wonder about his story. Why is he all alone? Why is he so content fixing up her Uncle's old, dilapidated farm house? And why can't Max get him off of her mind? Besides, she's over her ex. And over relationships. Really. She is.

Her mother died giving birth to her and her father never really cared, always working in his successful company. That's why she decides to go to a college away from home, something she's been dreaming of since she can remember. However, what happens when at her very first day on campus, she crosses path with Noah Allen? He is rich, popular, cold, rude and a player just to start with. No surprise she calls him Mr. Grumpy. What is driving her insane though is that he's only too cold when it comes to her. After some not so pleasant moments and lots of glares, she tells herself that the best is to stay away from him, but it won't be that easy. After a disastrous kiss and hidden jealousy, she finds herself deeply involved into what is this frustrating boy. Add to that the fact that he is her roommates' childhood best friend and you can see drama from miles away. Noah claims to hate her ever since they met, and he doesn't mean her first day of college. He remembers her just fine from a couple of years ago and all the feelings are back. He knows she doesn't remember him and he'll use this as his leverage to do what he has to do. It's what he promised his father and himself, even if it means he has to pretend to care for her. All he cares is his family business. At least it's what he tells himself, until the feelings start getting too mixed and he ends up thinking of her more than he should. Maybe it's not all about business after all. He knows their history started before she even knows, what he didn't expect was for her to be so different from what he has always believed.
