[NEW CHAPTER 1 - OUT NOW] Victoria Fitzgerald - her existence was like a piece of gum that Patrick Walter couldn't scrape off his shoe. Ever since the Walters moved across the street, Tori assigned herself as his de facto best friend. He didn't understand why she liked him so much when he couldn't stand her at all. She was annoying, weird, and a total outcast at school. At the start of their senior year, Patrick vowed to rid himself of the association, that is until his best friend, Oliver Hayden, decided to ask Tori out. Patrick couldn't care less, so why does he feel this way when they're supposed to be just friends?

[BOOK 1] "I won't leave" I whisper, and he smiles, "I know, baby" he says softly, and my lips tug upwards into a smile. "You're the exception" he continued, his tone tender as he pressed a short, sweet kiss to my forehead. I didn't know it then, but I started falling in love with Finn Brookes, we were each other's exceptions. * * * Lily Garcia didn't come to university looking for love-especially not with someone like Finn Brooks. He's charming, infuriating, and a walking complication she doesn't need. But no matter how hard she tries to keep her distance, there's something about him that feels like gravity, pulling her closer with every encounter. Beneath his cocky exterior, she senses the fractures he tries to hide-the same ones she's been running from her entire life. Finn's been through hell, and love isn't part of the plan. He's good at keeping his walls high, locking out anyone who might get too close. But then Lily shows up, and suddenly his carefully controlled life begins to unravel. She's everything he didn't know he was missing, and that scares him more than he's willing to admit. But with their pasts threatening to destroy what they could be, and old friends trying to drive a wedge between them, trust becomes their biggest hurdle. And when a new love interest steps into the picture, everything Lily and Finn thought they were building starts to fall apart. Fighting their demons was never supposed to include each other, but now they have to decide if the risk of heartbreak is worth the reward of finally letting someone in.
