Are you up for a steamy romance? One night, one mistake that will change her life forever.
He never thought he would feel anything again, especially love, until he met her.
Everybody thinks that she's the quiet type, Nobody knows who she really is except for her best friends Sarah, Natalia and Sky. All anybody knows is that she came here for one thing to graduate, and that's all she can possibly focus on, right? She's an all A's student and she never fails to win.
Nobody expects such a goody two shoes to be as bad as she really is. There's no way a person can fall in love with someone overnight, right? Because that's impossible.
I'm not supposed to be loved, and I'm not supposed to feel love. I'm a loner who stays by herself. The only exception is my friends, and that's just friendship. I will never ever fall in love. The idea of it makes me scared. For somebody to love me back is impossible because everybody that's ever loved me left me, either in death or in literal sense. I'm a curse that has not been broken.
The Night Sky.
He's the type of guy every girl wants, but only a select Few can get.
At what cost will he pay? By pursuing this non-Blueblood. Because in his world, reputation is everything and this will taint it. But he
doesn't care. He only cares about her. Everything about her is beautiful to him, which she seems to find impossible, and he doesn't know what to do because he's never felt anything before in his life and that, that is what scares them both the most.
How can one's taste be so addictive, so powerful? Why am I so drawn to her? I've never felt this way about anything at all in my whole entire life. Ever. Nothing. I feel nothing. I've always felt nothing. So why does she make me feel something? I'm drawn to her, and I cannot stop. And I will not stop at any cost. I will get this girl because she is mine and she always will be. She just doesn't know it yet. I am a curse. People always leave me in death, but maybe she is my cure.
"How many romance books do you read?" Devin asks me. I shrug.
"I like them," I say. I keep browsing, running my fingers along the spines.
"So, you like romance then?" he asks me. I nod. "What's your favorite part of a love story?"
"I like the very first kiss, but I like the second one even more," I say. I bite my lip and look at him.
Oh. My. God. What the hell am I doing? Am I flirting? I think that I'm actually flirting. With Devin. Devin, my best friend. I have officially lost my mind. I should probably stop. But I can't seem to.
"Will you grab me that one?" I ask. I point above my head, my back's pressed against the bookcase. He locks his gaze on mine and reaches over me to grab the book I asked for. "Thanks."
I don't move and neither does he.
Riley and Devin have been best friends forever-since Kindergarten. It's Senior year of high school, now. And it's always been simple, Riley's got his back, he's got hers.
But as life goes on Riley can't help but wonder if maybe he's not just her best friend, if she likes him as possibly something more.
As her feelings deepen and become something greater it becomes more evident that she's falling, really hard. No matter how hard Riley tries she can't stop falling, she can't stop from loving him. Even if it tears her to pieces or even if it destroys their friendship.
Pretty soon Riley is going to have to choose between walking the safe line of friendship or taking the unpaved path of love.
Will she risk everything for love?
