Sarah Rowen, an excellent 8th grade trumpet player, moves to a small town in Florida from New York City. At the beginning of the day, she doesn't expect to make any good friends. By the end of the day, however, she's made two lasting ones. August Hendrix, a fellow trumpet player with the passion and playing ability of someone way beyond his years; and Medina Thornton, the son of the band director and a trombonist with the ability to make anyone feel like they belong. Of course, there's also Dawson, a wealthy brat with an unexplained vendetta against August but a new-found crush on Sarah (who, naturally, despises him). Later, she meets Maggie, a phenomenal chorus student, and Violet, a golden-hearted diva who may be able to reform Dawson. With these people, Sarah may (after 2 years of playing) finally experience a true band family.

Beneath the surface, though, she hides a secret that has nearly ruined her life once, already. You see, Jay is a closeted lesbian in a military town.

The Bad Boy and Me
Meet Violet Summers. She's the sarcastic girl who doesn't really ever get noticed by anyone. She blends into any crowd because of how "normal" she is. And she loves it. She wouldn't be able to stand the attention of everyone around her. That's why she won't tell Ryan Bloore, her crush for three years, that she practically worships the ground he walks on. Ryan is the captain of the basketball team at their school, so guys see him like he's a god and girls act like he walks on water. If they were to date, all eyes would be on her- she would be under everyone's scrutiny. So she's kept her feelings a secret, and she's done her best to suppress her emotions these past years, but she's realized that she's been so caught up in making people not notice her that she didn't realize how lonely she would be when no one was watching. Now meet Ryder Knight. School bad boy. Quarterback captain and heartthrob. The kind that wears a leather jacket and has tattoos all over his arms. The one who shows up to school riding a motorcycle. Just your average run of the mill "if you get involved with this guy, you will meet some serious trouble" kind of male. Well, too bad for Violet, she's stuck with him now. After all of the years of pushing away her feelings for Ryan because of her fear of being seen, she is now all anyone can look at- because of Ryder. Because of him, she can feel their stares, and she hates him for it. The longer they spend time together, the more Ryder starts to realize he actually enjoys being around her-despite her snarky comments about how much she despises him. And if Violet is being completely honest with herself, she's also starting to realize she might not actually hate the fact that people are noticing her now, but hate the way Ryder makes her feel.Complete
