"He rests his forehead on mine and closes his eyes. Instantly, my own eyes flutter shut. I can feel his lips so very near to my own.
'Mia..," he says, almost like a whisper, 'I'm not him.' I gasp as his lips almost brush mine. 'Please... I need you to try and trust me.'
If only he knew what he was asking of me."
***
Mia Valiente is a girl who's spent her entire life trying not to be noticed. Her goal for the rest of junior year is to keep her head down, survive Track & Field season, and avoid her ex-boyfriend, Sean, as much as possible.
It's been a year since she decided she loved Sean. It's been a few months since he broke her heart. It's been a week since he came back to stomp on the pieces. She feels like she's completely lost who she is. She doesn't know if she'll ever be that person again.
Until she meets Hunter Scott. And all that begins to change.
Hunter is tall, charming, and confident, with an edge that makes his kindness all the more surprising. Not to mention, gorgeous as hell. He's the kind of guy who knows exactly what he wants.
So why does it seem like all he wants is Mia?
Maybe Hunter is a little lost too, and maybe through finding each other, they'll find themselves.

"I wouldn't mind watching you. Maybe we could tan together this summer." He suggested. "Without having tan lines." I could feel the smirk playing on his lips. I lightly slapped his chest.
"Don't ruin my mood with your cockiness."
"I think I made it a lot better."
"Well, keep going and you'll have to deal with your boner yourself." I teased.
"Why does it always come back to my boner?" He asked with a smile playing on his lips.
"Because it's just so huge." I said absentmindedly.
"Is it now?" He raised a brow at me.
I stripped myself away from him and pouted as I folded my arms across my chest. "That's not what I was supposed to say."
"Hmm," He nodded. "What were you supposed to say then?"
"That it's just as annoying as you." I laughed.
SUMMARY:
After the death of her father, Blake moves in with her estranged mother and twin sister. Coping with her father's death was one thing and being involved in dirty work is another. Add a bad boy to fall for on her plate and things can't be more messed up.
She tries to start a new life but ghosts from her past just aren't ready to leave her. Question is, can she make it through and have a happy ending or not?
Give it a few chapters, nobody gets the hang of writing their first book immediately. It gets better story wise and writing wise, I promise.
