I'm Only Me When I'm With You

Have you ever felt like you wanted to change yourself? I do every day. I've looked at the mirror seven times since I woke up this morning, and like the first sixth time I still looked like him... I'm not conceited but there was a time when I used to like what I saw. For seventeen years I've walked as the spitting image of him. And for seventeen years I had never really looked past my reflection, until that day where I could even see my reflection without wanting to rip my eye out. All I could see was him. I hate him. But every time I glanced at that mirror, at that girl looking back, it's hard to see if that was every me. I wasn't anything like him and I never will.
I traced the swells of my lips repeatedly as if they could easily disappear beneath my touch, they were a painful reminder of my father. From the gentle waves of my dark hair to the almond shape of my eyes and the one thing that standout the most, the deep greens of my eyes. I was my fathers child.

Aria is lost, divorce tears her family apart and her image of true love. Starting a new school living in a different house reminds her every day that her life has changed.

Grayson has it all, rich parents, popular, good looking but he too is struggling. They need each other but don't know it yet.

This book switches story from Aria to Grayson to show they have similar lives. It's a cliche but everyone loves a good cliche.
