A life without you is a world without music.

Emma hates clichés. She's strong-willed, talented, and (more importantly) desperate to escape the small town she grew up in. Now, in her senior year of high school, she's managed to avoid opening her heart to anyone. But when she discovers the dark secret of her brother's best friend, her year takes an unexpected turn.

Jake spent his childhood pining over his best friend's twin sister. But now they're 17 years old and he's the epitome of everything she hates - he's the quarterback of the high school football team, he dates her arch-nemesis, and he's (unknowingly) the reason she stopped playing cello in front of people. But when his harrowing past catches up with him, will Emma see him in a new light or will the darkness come between them for good?

Our Song

35 parts Complete

Leah is beautiful, outgoing, and popular. Because of this, she's gotten everything she's ever wanted. Except for one thing. All she's ever really wanted was to please people, but she never seems to be able to. Unlike her friends, she doesn't care about any of the superficial things that seem so important. To Leah, if something isn't fair, it just isn't right. So when an isolated classmate named Blake gets to listen to music during class while no one else can, she can't help but feel annoyed by him. When their English teacher partners the two of them up for a project that will last them the entire school year, this only adds fuel to the fire. Their assignment is to create a song describing their relationship. Sounds easy, right? Not for these two. Blake is different, and Leah is about to find out that different is just what she wants and needs. But what she doesn't know is that Blake has a secret, and it's something he desperately wants to keep from her. Falling in love with someone isn't as easy as it might seem. Life isn't fair, but Leah and Blake are about to find out that love isn't either.
