falling
(v.) move downward, typically rapidly and freely without control, from a higher to a lower level.
Maya Hart always knew she was falling for her best friend's uncle, Josh Matthews, from the moment he walked in. The blue of his eyes, the mess of his hair. She feels as if there's chemistry, but the age difference always keeps them apart. Joshua Matthews understands this and for awhile, Maya Hart was nothing but a child to him, his niece's best friend who just seemed to find him attractive. Then after a night outside a Bistro, everything changed — and it's something that the soon to be college student just can't quite accept. While she thinks she's losing him, she's only gaining his attention when she least expects it. Josh is scared to take chances at first but when Maya becomes abruptly closed off, he'll soon realize that falling in love with her isn't as dangerous as it may seem.

Two-sided
Kait is a 16 year old girl from Montana. She's pretty, athletic, wealthy, smart, and witty. Everything you expect one of the most popular girls at school to be. Dylan is a 17 year old city boy. He grew up in Minnesota, going to school with 800 people just in his class alone - about 700 people more than what Kait is used to. Dylan was popular, the star of the hockey team, and comes off as that typical jerk of a player. Kait describes him as being "handsome as hell", but his exterior doesn't seem to quite match the inside. He is a complete smart ass, and isn't afraid to speak his mind, while being a huge flirt, but there's more to him than he likes to show. When Dylan's father threatens to hurt him and his mother, they decide to move in with Kait and her family. Although their mothers were high school best friends, Kait and Dylan, two of the now most well known juniors in the school, don't exactly get off on the right foot. Dylan is constantly harassing Kait in every way he can for his own amusement. Kait decides she cannot stand him. Secretly, Dylan sees Kait in a very different way than he's willing to let on. Eventually, Kait is able to realize that there are two sides to Dylan: and despite what she'd like to admit, there's one side of him that she just can't help but be drawn to.Complete
