Sixteen-year-old Keira Calloway has always kept things in check; her family, her friends, herself. But with year eleven piling on and her home life pulling at the seams, the balance is slipping.

Max Brannigan is the golden boy. Star footy player. Top of the class. Perfect on paper. But behind closed doors, perfection's a prison.

Then Jack Doyle walks into St. Bellamy College. Quiet, guarded, and not looking to fit in. All he wants is to keep his head down. Until he meets Keira.

What starts as friendship spirals into something messier, deeper. As secrets surface and lines blur, loyalty is tested, hearts are on the line, and Keira must decide how far she'll go to protect the people she loves, and what silence might cost her.

I say all in one deep breath with a really convincing voice. " Under one condition, brunette." " Did I mention you're also very complicated ?"I point out as she rolls her eyes. " Your condition ?" " Later on, you tell me about your miserable life, because I feel like I just told you about my past, present, and soon enough I'll start talking about my future. So?" I sigh, running a hand through my hair. " Whatever you want, Grey." She smiles. " Now my idea?" " I like this side of you, Asher Cooper and I hope I see more of it. " " Don't get used to it Grey, because for now you'll have to see the competitive side of me.
