When she nearly fails her exams, her wealthy traditional family sends her back home, stripping away the independence she has cherished and settles her in the suffocating pressure of a family name that carries weight in society.
Gone are the peaceful, quiet solo brunches. In their place? A strict new boarding school, relentless gossip, and an unexpected rise to internet fame that puts every misstep under public scrutiny.
But as she rediscovers the richness of her roots, the beauty, resilience, and joy woven into her people, her perspective begins to shift. And so does her love life.
With an old flame, an unlikely new romance, and the weight of family expectations pressing down on her, she faces the greatest challenge yet. Will she find her place in this world or will the pressure prove too much?

His Sunshine | ✓
She looks up at me, taking a step forward and smiling slightly, "How can I ever get hurt when I have you here to protect me?" "But you could have gotten hurt," I murmur softly, hanging my head and feeling my shoulders drop, the tension seeping from my body. "No. Stop," She cuts me off sternly but tenderly, "Don't talk like that, Reece. I'm okay, you're okay, we're okay," She speaks softly, reaching her hand up to gently brush her thumb over my cheek, just under the cut that's there. "We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart. I know she can feel how fast my heart is beating. I just don't know why it's doing that. ~ Reece Carter is the bad boy of Northwood High. He smokes and he fights.
