Sixteen-year-old Cherry Lane never thought an empty notebook could change her life- until she started writing in it.

Through quiet reflections and scattered moments, she begins to capture the beauty and chaos of being sixteen: new beginnings, unexpected friendships, first crushes, and small choices that slowly shape who she's becoming.

At Rosewood High, nothing stays the same for long. Between laughter, secrets, and the kind of memories that leave a mark, Cherry learns that even the simplest days can mean everything.

The first in a heartfelt coming-of-age series about friendship, self-discovery, and the year that changed everything.

Landon O'Brien is the boy who laughs too loud, flirts too much, and never lets anyone see past the surface. At seventeen, he's mastered the art of making everyone think he's fine. Life at home with his single mam and two younger siblings is chaos wrapped in love and too much noise-but it's his noise. He's used to being the glue. The one who keeps the mood up. The one who makes sure no one ever asks what he needs. Then there's Hannah Brewer. Cold. Untouchable. Sharp enough to draw blood without even raising her voice. She's the girl who doesn't date, doesn't hook up, and doesn't believe in giving second chances when she never gave first ones to begin with. Her house is silent. Her parents are always gone. And she copes in ways no one ever sees-not even her best friend, Reese. The only person who keeps trying to get close? Landon O'Brien. The one person she can't stand. He jokes. She cuts. He shows up. She shuts down. They shouldn't work. And they don't. Not even a little. Until everything else around them starts to fall apart. Behind Landon's laugh is a weight he doesn't share. Behind Hannah's walls are scars no one sees. As the year unfolds-with parties, fights, and friends slowly falling apart-two people on opposite ends of everything start to realize they might be more alike than either of them wants to admit. As their world gets messier-fractured friendships, parties gone wrong, secrets cracking open-Landon and Hannah get pulled into the kind of orbit that can't be explained. Not with words. Not with logic. Just pain. And want. And something they don't have a name for yet. And others leave you crossing lines you swore you'd never touch.

Nolan, an unapproachable guy who ignores the existence of all his schoolmates, sleeps in all of his classes. Normally, this wouldn't be Chelsea Arnold's problem-she does her best to pay attention in class and attends gym like a good, normal student. Unfortunately, she just so happens to be his assigned desk partner in many classes. She's frequently forced to wake him in English class and ends up earning the unofficial title of Nolan's Wake-up Alarm-a title that nobody in the entire school covets. The last thing she wants is to interact with him more than she absolutely has to. One day, their gym teacher sends her to bring him back to class, which he always skips for some reason. When she accidentally shines her flashlight in his sleeping face, it triggers a chain of events that gradually intertwines their lives together. It's hard to be a normal student when you start befriending the school oddball. It doesn't help that he has more secrets than the Big Ben has stairs. ----- Complete.
