"You've built your walls so high no one can climb them. But I'm gonna try."
❧
Lauren Gates is an eighteen year old girl whose past has left her with major trust issues and has caused her to shut out socializing from her life completely. But when she moves with her aunt to a new state, everything starts to change.
Logan Williams is popular, good-looking, and determined to help Lauren break out of the shell she's been hiding in for the past three years - no matter what it takes.
Somewhere along the way, her feelings for Logan start to develop into something more than she expected. But can she really learn to let go and allow herself to feel this way? Or will she keep holding on to the past?
