Faith Monroe had never once stepped out of her comfort zone. She had always buried herself to work, achievements, and titles in hopes for her Father to acknowledge her hard work. But no matter how hard she tried to attain his attention, they never worked, and they never would.

The glint of hope that abode inside her own little world, vanished almost instantly when failure rendered her hopeless. There was no more point of trying, she has failed herself for her Father to be recognized, and she no longer has the will to try and win his attention again.

Well - not until Hope Sebastian Elrod came knocking in her life. An unusual but remarkable guy who's come to change the entire course of her life. And just so you know, by 'change the entire course of her life', well he sure did. But not in a sense of a good thing anyways.

Her Father had finally notice her existence, but not because of her hard work, nor the efforts she had wasted throughout her entire life. It wasn't because of any of those; but because of Hope Sebastian Elrod, her secret partner in crime who turned out to be the worst obstacle she had come across yet. 

Now that the situation had gone worse for her, it was time to get out of the comfort zone. But as soon as she set foot outside the barrier that had kept her inside for so long, she finds herself entangled from the series of unfortunates and calamities. Like a small fish sunk into the oceans filled with sharks and unfamiliar creatures.

How will she survive her way out from the danger that awaits her? Especially when the danger itself is a notorious jerk who's name embodies the element of trust, but quite the complete opposite of a person that he truly is.

Hope.

"Do they not say that a good friendship builds on a ground of lies?" I joke, lightening the mood immediately as his green eyes glint in humor and a smirk falls on his familiar lips. "Do you kiss a lot of your friends, love?" The underlying tones threaten to provoke a blush on my cheeks, but I get myself together. Smirking at him, "Well, of course, is that not the norm?" *********** Dakota Moore is the perfect example of a beautiful disaster. Her wisdom is ready to knock anyone down, her self worth is an exact replica of the way her father raised her, and her pain so intense it screams over every building. She refuses to show anyone what's going on behind closed doors, especially when her lovely father gets the traumatic news that he has an incurable disease. Elijah Black is the spur of the moment kind of guy, he's the one no one ever settles with because of his angry outbursts and rude ways. Even though he throws everyone off, except for when they want sexual advances, he still can't help but feel enthralled by the freckled girl who's hiding so many secrets behind a fake smile. As they clash and try to reject the obvious rush, will they accept their attraction, or is everything just too much? After all, how can two ruined teenagers manage a youthful love without destroying themselves in the process?
