"Hard is trying to rebuild yourself, piece by piece, with no instruction book, and no clue as to where all the important bits are supposed to go." -Nick Hornby

Evangeline just served five spectacular months in a juvenile delinquent center in North Carolina.  At only fifteen, this teenager had a criminal record  all because the judge wanted to make an example out of her.  Now she's back living with her mom and her current boy toy Robert in a place that never quite felt like home.  Trying to turn her life around, her math teacher enlists the help of the all around perfect Jason Worthington the Third.  The two slowly get to know each other and form a special bond.  But things are not always what you imagine them to be, especially if you're dealing with a delinquent and the school's apparent golden boy.

~MALE POV~ Amaya Brooks. She's got to be the prettiest girl ever. She always looks so beautiful. She's always got this bright, carefree smile on her face. I'm crushing on her. Hard. Like, it's bad. She's so out of my league, too. By a long shot. She's the exact opposite of me. Extroverted, rebellious, confident, gorgeous. All things that I'm... not. I always hope I see her in the halls during the bell or outside during lunch. She's never there. When I do see her, she's usually with Jason and his friends. What does she see in him? I already know. He's hot to girls, hell, even guys. He's such a jerk though, at least to everyone who's not as good as him. I hope he treats her good at least. She deserves it. I know she deserves that even if I don't know anything about her. She's such a hard book to read. I want to know her. Learn all about her. And I do. But she has a problem, and I want, no, I need to help her. But is that just who she is? Or who she was forced to become? - *Mature Content* Started: June 2019 Finished: August 10, 2022 Over 200,000 word count. #1 in #teenromance (June 6, 2024) #1 in #hot (February 14, 2023) #2 in #romance (December 18, 2022) #1 in #goodboy (September 13, 2022) #1 in #badchick (November 2, 2021) #1 in #goodguy (December 20, 2021) #1 in #rolesreversed (January 6, 2022) #1 in #obedient (December 1, 2022) #1 in #reversedroles (August 30, 2022) #2 in #badgirl (February 16, 2022) #5 in #delinquent (December 18, 2022) #3 in #innocentboy (November 23, 2022) #1 in #malepov (July 13, 2022) #8 in #darkpast (October 25, 2022) #14 in #love (February 25,2023)

When her ex-friend-turned-boyfriend reappears in her life, Anna must put her hurt and resentment aside to help him survive his withdrawal before he relapses, or worse, dies in the process. Two years ago, Anna's boyfriend disappeared, leaving Anna hurt and abandoned in a new city to rebuild her life. Until he appears at her doorstep, begging for something to eat and a place to sleep. Bitter and determined not to let him hurt her again, Anna agrees. As she witnesses the slow deterioration of his physical and mental health, however, and with flashes of their past together haunting every waking moment, her resolves begin to weaken. Can Anna save Kyle from his self-destructive behaviors or will she lose him once again? This time, forever. | Featured Wattpad Editor's Pick | shortlist ONC 2019 | Warning: The story contains mature language, mentions of suicide, self-harm, mental health issues, child abuse, and substance abuse.
