Book 1 of the Harvard High School series! In the hallowed halls of Harvard High School, Autumn and Rhys couldn't be more different. She's the admired cheerleader, while he's the heartless playboy. They share a deep-seated animosity, fueled by their clashing personalities and past heartbreaks. Autumn, scarred by love, refuses to believe in its existence, while Rhys sees her as nothing more than a conquest. Their senior year takes an unexpected turn when Autumn becomes the victim of a sinister plan orchestrated by her best friend and her boyfriend. As she struggles to cope with the aftermath, Rhys unexpectedly finds her and begins to unravel the layers of her pain. What starts as a begrudging friendship slowly blossoms into something more profound. But just as Autumn begins to lower her defenses, she discovers Rhys's initial intentions were anything but genuine - he saw her as a mere bet. Heartbroken and betrayed, she distances herself from him, unable to trust his motives. But Rhys is determined to make amends. He cuts ties with his toxic friends, vowing to prove his sincerity to Autumn. Forced to work together on a class project, they find themselves confronting their misconceptions about each other and forging a deeper connection. As their relationship teeters between love and resentment, Autumn must confront her fears and decide if she's willing to take a chance on Rhys - or if their tumultuous past is destined to keep them apart.

[COMPLETED] Autumn Cross is now in 12th grade at her new school, Willington High, with only one goal in mind: passing the 12th grade and going to a good college. But her world changes when she meets Ryder Becker. Ryder Becker is one of the most popular boys in all of Willington High. I mean, all the boys want to be him and all the girls worship him. He could care less about grades because he knows that football is what's going to get him into a good college. But his carelessness in grades changes when he meets Autumn. Not only does Autumn get partnered up with Ryder for the biggest class project of the whole year, she also lives on the same street as him. In the beginning she thinks it's a total curse, but maybe it's a blessing in disguise... They both may pretend on the outside that they are fine, but truth be told, they are both broken. The way his smile doesn't match his sad eyes draws her towards him, and the scars and bruises on her skin draw him towards her. A cure for your sadness could be another person, right? Well put her broken pieces together with his, and you have cracked the code. Love could put their broken pieces back together. ----------------------------------- A sky full of stars and he was still staring at me. "Why are you staring like that?" I asked him. "You scare me, Autumn." Ryder admitted. "How come?" He looked down at the grass beneath us then back at me and gulped. "Because I want to tell you secrets I'm too scared to admit to myself." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🤍I wrote this when I was around 13-14 (i'm 19 now) so some chapters may be cringy but I am too lazy to rewrite them, and still so many people enjoy this book and i'm truly grateful! But sorry in advance for scenes that may seem unrealistically cringe...I was young and naive. But anyways,enjoy the book (hoping to write more books in the future)🤍 Highest rank: 2019 #1 scars 03/12 #7 love 04/30 #4 romance 06/07 #1 highschool 06/07 #5 teen fiction 06/09 #1 cute 06/15 #1 lovers
