"Maybe one day you'll realize how much you mean to me."
One day she had it all. The best friend. The unforgettable memories. The soccer talent. The naive life.
But that changed when she went to high school.
Enter Leia Meadows. She isn't the brightest girl in school, but that doesn't stop her from pushing herself. She thought freshman year was going to be a blast, with her sophomore friend Annaleigh Rushman by her side.
As luck would have it, Leia came into high school without a single friend, Annie having moved on to bigger and better things.
But just when she thinks it could get worse, she bumps into Chris "Richie" Richards, a sophomore who just so happens to be one of the most popular kids in school.
Cue romantic music.
Yup, as cliche as it sounds, Leia falls head over heels in love with Richie, feeling the impulse to write him letters.
Despite the trouble she's heading into, she believes that maybe, just maybe, he could be the solution to all of her problems.
But, oh, just when Leia thinks she has him, he gets a date.
And that's not even the best part. (Note the sarcasm).
After a whole year, she thought she had it all under control.
She was badly mistaken.
Enter...all of the cruel bullies and helpless bystanders.
Poor, naive Leia has to go through the next three years being terribly teased, beaten, and harassed by other kids in school.
Will she ever make it through high school alive?

I'd like to note that this may sound cheesy, and I'm sorry if so. But, please, don't let that stop you from reading.
This story is for all those who have ever been bullied, whether it was verbal, physical, cyber, or what have you. I hope you enjoy this book and are able to connect with Leia as a character.
