COMPLETED. Sienna Grace is going into her third year of university with only her boyfriend by her side. She's reeling from the loss of her best friend, Ethan, in a car accident that summer, and if that wasn't bad enough, she has to deal with the guilt that comes from knowing that Ethan got drunk at that bar because he was nursing the heart that she broke. Sienna's social support network is waning thin: Her boyfriend Josh, whom Ethan never really liked, is more distant than usual. At work, there's Liam, who's way too friendly and Maggie, who's not friendly at all. It appears that it's going to be a lonely year for Sienna until her Monday morning English lecture. There she meets Hayden Strong and she can't help but be envious of his carefree attitude and charm, to which she's not immune. Despite his blatant flirting, Hayden insists that they only be friends, and that's not just because Josh is still in the picture. As her relationship falls apart, Sienna realizes that she wants Hayden. She's just not sure that she needs him. As Sienna and Hayden spend more time together, they'll be forced to wonder if a broken heart can still beat.All Rights Reserved

He's got dark brown hair, perfect eyebrows, and soft brown eyes. Honestly, he's gorgeous. And since I've read, and edited, about five articles about him, I recognize him immediately. Dane Sawyer. He's the best pitcher on our baseball team. He's hoping to go pro, although I'm not totally sure what the process is surrounding that, since I don't retain much of the information from the articles that I read about him. I know that he's also a junior, and that his girlfriend is hot as fuck. I've seen them together on campus. They're hard to miss because they are easily one of the most attractive couples that I've ever seen. I'm convinced that I must be hallucinating, because he makes eye contact and walks towards me.

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.
