Three Teenagers. One assignment. A truth none of them were ready to face.
In the heart of Riverpoint - a housing project where silence keeps you safe and secrets keep you alive - three high school seniors are thrown together for a classroom project called The Truth Assignment. The goal: uncover what connects them. The result: everything unravels.
Mateo Cruz is the oldest son of undocumented immigrants, balancing school, work, and the weight of keeping his family together if ICE knocks at their door. Riley Porter, a military kid newly dumped into Riverpoint, wants nothing to do with anyone - until she falls for the one boy she was never supposed to love. And Jay Harris, loud, wild, and broken, hides bruises with jokes and plans his escape before the neighborhood swallows him whole.
A raw, unflinching story about love, identity, and what it costs to speak the truth - especially when the world wants you to stay quiet.

Don't Fall Not Yet
Moving from Mexico to the wealthy, perfect suburbs of New York, María Hernandez's plan was simple: finish high school, keep her head down, and blend into the background. That plan lasted until she met Marcus Whitmore. Marcus is the town's golden boy-the star quarterback, popular, and untouchable. But the easy smile is a lie. His eyes hold a constant, dangerous storm, his home is full of secrets, and he has sworn off feeling anything real for anyone. The moment their worlds collide, they don't just fall; they break open. María is the calm he never knew he needed, and he's the dangerous chaos she should have run from the second she saw him. This is Don't Fall, Not Yet. Told in dual POV, this story is about the fight for identity, the ugly price of loyalty, and the devastating violence of secrets. It's about the impossible choice between protecting the people you love... and destroying them completely. Mature Audience Warning: 18+ Although María and Marcus's journey begins in high school, it will follow them into adulthood. Expect explicit content, strong language, messy emotions, and raw moments that don't shy away from the real challenges of growing up. I'm doing my best to reflect the richness and challenges of both Mexican and Anglo-American Elite experiences with honesty and care. If I ever miss the mark, please (gently) let me know-I'm always open to learning and doing better. Please read, share, vote, follow, and leave a comment. I'd love to hear your thoughts as you join María and Marcus on this unforgettable journey. © Scarlett Moon, 2025 This is a work of fiction. All rights reserved.
