Anna Parker is not so outspoken. In her mind, being reserved is easiest; no embarrassment, no humiliation. When Aiden Wilder comes crashing into her life - literally - and makes it difficult for her to do anything but talk, she slowly finds that even a boy who comes across as complicated, contradicting, and confusing can be so different than what meets the eye. She soon realizes just how true the phrase 'Don't judge a book by its cover,' is, or even by the first few chapters, for that matter. Anna learns, slowly and gradually, about new people and old friends and how to leave things be when every internal instinct is telling you it needs to be fixed. She discovers that there is so much more to the world than routine, and how simply it can happen if you just allow yourself to take the risk. Anna finds that sometimes, falling is better than just standing still. {#566 Teen Fiction ~ 4/14/15} ®All Rights Reserved - Be like Aretha Franklin and R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Cover Credit goes to @lasveagas

Book 1 of the "Used to Be" Series Scarlett Fisher: the school's resident mean girl. Beautiful, smart (but doesn't let people know), charismatic, confident (or at least that's what everyone thinks.) The truth is, she's scared, Scared that one day people will see past her smile and charm, and see the person she really is on the inside. Scared that someone will remember who she used to be. ~•~ Now I know I seem like a bitch, and your probably thinking I'm your stereotypical mean girl, but I wasn't always like this, back when high school first started. I had a best friend who I thought I would be friends with forever. I was shy and timid, and I was foolish enough to believe what people told me. Back then everyone knew me as Arora. After the incident I decided to stop going by my first name, I had also learned that being mean, and not taking anything form anyone was the only way to get people to treat you with respect. ~•~ Arora Fisher: the girl most people didn't notice until they needed help with homework, the girl who was voted most likely to disappear and no one would notice. The girl who her believed in the good in others, who wanted to just give people a chance, no matter how many red flags. The girl who was lost to tragedy. ~•~ "We'll be broken together." He try's to smile, but he can't manage it and I nod, knowing how much pain he feels. "We'll be broken together." I whisper, after that we sit there, in an empty silence, neither of us wanting to be the first one to speak again, because it feels off, like the sound of our own voices might somehow break our hearts more.
