Astrid

Carter slowly walked towards me, butterflies swarming in my stomach, filling every inch of me.

"Assi." he grabbed my wrists, and made me look at him. "Who was that song about?"

"You know who."

"Was it... about me?"

"What would you say if it was?" I cocked my head to the side, our eyes staying connected with each other.

"I wouldn't say." he moved closer to me, towering over by the slightest bit as his breath surrounded my every nerve.

He leant down, took a sharp breath and connected our lips.

Astrid was a beautiful girl, who had lost her sense of who she was and where she belonged. She went through something traumatic at only 14, but no one noticed. She moved to Roseville for a fresh start with her best friend Kaitlyn by her side.

But Carter notices. He was a "bad boy" with a heart of gold (ik it's cliché) . He never let anything slip by him. He doesn't say anything as their personalities clash and they hate each other.

You know what they say, there is a thin line between love and hate.

Will these two step over the line?

But sometimes, running away from your problems doesn't go down unnoticed. The very person Astrid ran away from is after her, and this time, the consequences will be worse.

This is an enemies-friends-lovers book and they become friends early on because I find it difficult to write going from enemies to lovers so yeah.
