The bad boy next door
"She promised herself she wouldn't fall for him - the boy with secrets in his eyes and sins on his hands. But promises were made to be broken." Evelyn Quinn has always preferred to stay in the background - quiet, careful, and a little too good at keeping to herself. So when her family moves to a new neighborhood, she promises herself this time will be different. A fresh start. A chance to belong. But new beginnings are never as simple as they seem. Between the pressure of fitting in and the unfamiliar faces at her town, Evelyn's world feels like a maze she can't quite navigate. That is, until she's introduced to her cousin Emily's group of friends - loud, confident, and nothing like her. Then there's him. The boy everyone warns her about. The one who's all sharp smiles, late-night rides, and secrets he never talks about. He's reckless and magnetic, the kind of trouble that pulls you in before you even realize you're falling. At first, Evelyn tells herself it's just curiosity. A crush she'll outgrow. But the more time she spends around him, the more she sees a side of him that no one else does - a side that makes her heart race and her guard crumble. Soon, she's caught between the girl she's always been and the girl she's becoming - between safety and danger, right and wrong, heart and reason. Because some people come into your life to teach you lessons. And others? They change you forever. Will Evelyn's new life help her grow into who she's meant to be... or will it lead her down a path she never saw coming?Complete
New York to Seattle
******* " If I were you, Evelyn, I would put that gun down and stand back. " Her sickening voice traveled to my ears. I turned around to look at her dead in the eyes. She gulped and cowered a little at the direct eye contact. Keeping my eyes locked on hers, a menacing look in mine, I sauntered towards her. My stance, now confident and terrifying for her. " And if I were you, I would have run a long time ago. But look what you did. You came right in. And you tried to take what was mine. Again. Do you think I'll let you walk away now? " I sneered in a low threatening voice. A slow victorious smirk made its way across my face as I saw complete terror finally set into her evil brown eyes. ******** Evelyn Rose Johnson is a 21-year-old, not-so-normal girl living in New York.
