badass bestfriends comfort fights opposites shadows

[DISCONTINUED]

Aspen Bender: aka the school shadow. She keeps her head low, keeps away from drama, and does her work.

Nessa Quinn: aka the best friend-  is the complete opposite. She bathes in the attention given to her, is the center of drama, and barely passes. ...and somehow they fit like two puzzle pieces.

|| Starting senior year is always exciting. Same friends, same school, for one more year. For Aspen its another year of blending in. For Nessa its another year of gossip and fail attempts of getting her best friend to leave the shadows behind. Though when a new guy joins the senior population, no one thought anything of it. That is until Aspen finds him exiting the well-known entrance of the underground fighting arena - which arises an unpredictable relationship that may or may not work out.||All Rights Reserved
