Sunflowers bloom and are usually cut once fully grown. They're marvelous flowers. Bright and magical, plus they smell absolutely wonderful. The catch is that once they're cut they might never come back, but if they do they'll never be quite as beautiful as they were when they first blossomed. 

My Sunflower loves came in all forms; a boy named Michael, a girl who adored bugs, and a picture taken by a guy I knew as Liam. 

But Theodore Cade Montgomery was determined to make sure he wasn't a Sunflower. 
I am way out of my league when I stand beside him, but he never seems to want to let go of my hand.

I wish they told me how hard it would be to navigate through dating if you never experienced a relationship in high school. I wish I was informed about the difficulty of approaching and being approached. I wish that it was easier and that somehow I wasn't destined to screw it up.

"Why do you keep calling me Benji?"

"Because anyone can call you Winnie," Theo leans his forehead against mine, his eyes piercing mine as our breath flirts between us. "I can't stand thinking that I'm just anyone to you."

Noah Rollins, your typical all American good looking man and my long time best friend. He had it all the hockey career, the perfect girlfriend and all the female attention one man can handle. I, however was the wallflower, the girl that just blended into the background. The one who never took the risks, in fear of failing. The best friend to someone I so desperatly had loved since I was 13, but didn't say anything. So here I am in a jewelry store helping said best friend pick out a ring for his forever person. My heart told me not to go as I know it would break the moment he found that ring, but my best friend needed me on this important day. Sometimes thought it just takes one little incident to let that wallflower shine bright in that other person's eyes. This is the story of how that happened for Noah and I. Noah Rollins, 26 and the starting centreman for the Detroit Red Wings. He has the life he haf always dreamed of. NHL superstar, smoking hot girlfriend and a best friend he knew would always be there for him. When Noah makes the decision to propose to Anslee, his best friend Tiffany is there to help him pick out the perfect ring. Too bad the proposal doesn't go as planned.

Always self concious about her looks and comparing herself to the model like women Noah is always dating.

Aiden Bennett was my first crush, my brother's best friend, hockey superstar, and now? He's my fake boyfriend. Running away to Boston was a chance for me to start anew, but as life goes, I find myself back in my hometown for my sister's wedding, where I'm unfortunately dragged back into the judgmental spotlight over my failed engagement. Enter Aiden, who much to my surprise, swoops in like a knight in shining armor to shield me from any more scrutiny. His plan you ask? Pretending to be my boyfriend. Yup, you heard that right. I didn't believe it either myself. Little did we know, a leaked photo from our night of playing pretend would spark a media frenzy, landing right into the hands of Aiden's agent who has a plan of his own. His plan? Use this charade to help polish Aiden's recently damaged image while securing a long term future in the league. Now I'm stuck in a whirlwind of public appearances, unexpected moments, and conflicting emotions. I've spent years keeping the feelings I had for him frozen away, but with every look, with every touch, he's chiseling his way back into my heart. As time goes by, I'm terrified that the lines between real and fake are going to blur, and after everything I've been through, could I be ready to take a chance on love again? Do I play it safe, or risk everything for the one person who has always been there, just out of reach? Aiden Bennett could destroy me, but maybe that's a risk I'm finally willing to take.
