A year ago, Skylar McCauleys life took a turn for the worst, leaving her in need a of change. For a while, California seemed to be that change.

Skylars old life and the need for closure, brings her home and reunites her with her friends and family. Unfortunately, the one person that matters most to her isn't overly thrilled to see her. Her best friend from the beginning, Asher Reynolds.

Asher has denied Skylars existence for the past year. He's still holding on to the hurt and anger her departure left him with and isn't anywhere near ready to forgive her yet or so he thinks. The problem is, Skylars return brings back feelings he thought had long since disappeared, and makes him question the decision he made before she left. 

Can the two make amends or will almost two decades of friendship be washed down the drain?
And if they do, could it end up being something more?

However, it soon becomes apparent that their friendship isn't the only thing that could be in danger. There is someone out there who is still blaming Skylar for what happened, as much as she blames herself. Someone is intent on scaring her and doing her as much harm as possible, even if it means killing her. 

With her life, and the lives of those she cares about in danger, Skylar finds things spiralling out of control once more. After several strange and frightening experiences, Skylar realises that not everything is as it seems. They run much deeper and further then the events of the year before and secrets soon come to the fore. Ones that could change her life even more. That's if she manages to survive!

'I had guilt that ate me out from the inside and made me want to throw up. Guilt that started as a young child and continued to fester until I was doomed to break. I knew that one day I would shatter like glass. I just wasn't sure if anyone would be able to put the pieces of me back together.' ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ashley Summers is the Bloomingfield Highs resident goodgirl/nerd, complete with absolutely no friends and a book for company. However guys could be throwing themselves at her because she is really one of the hottest girls at school, but her bookish tendencies and social low keep them away. And the fact that every guy who talks to her gets ignored. What she doesn't expect from the new year was the bad boy, Adrian Forsyth, persistently taking her attention away from her introverted life. Wait, she does know why. It was that stupid Chemistry class. She feels her carefully constructed life start to break as Adrian digs around her past, intent on finding out exactly what made her shut off from the world and herself for all of those years. Ashley has some deep secrets that she wants to stay hidden but piece by piece they make their way to the light. The question is what will happen when they all become revealed? It seems that while Adrian is searching for answers to the puzzle that is Ashley Summers he finds more than just her secrets. He could also find the key to her heart, a place where no person has truly seen before. Which is to say that Ashley Summers is in for some interesting events before the year is over. ---------------------------------------------------

Alexandra Queen, she has never had a normal childhood. Her and her mother were abused by her father and his friend, John. Day in and day out. Their joy was her pain and suffering. No one knew of Alexandra's life at home. She was so good at hiding it, that even her own best friends didn't know what was going on. Alexandra eventually became a natural at hiding her pain from everyone. But one day her father stopped coming home. The abuse towards her and her mother stopped. No more drunken father or John beating and yelling at them. They were left alone. Free from them. They lived in peace for years. They were afraid of him coming back at first but when he didn't, they started their lives again. Willing themselves to push past their past. They began to rebuild themselves. But all that changed senior year. It seemed all fine at first. She made new friends and school was going great. She was ready to graduate. Then everything began to go downhill fast. Old friendships came back to haunt her. Secrets come to light and worst of all, they come back. Alexandra didn't think it could get worst then how she lived her childhood. But how very wrong she was. She then learns what it really meant to get the raw end of life. Follow as Alexandra deals with more then she thought she could handle. Alexandra might be strong willed but nothing could possibly prepare for what was to come. [Please keep in mind that this story is a very fast paced story. It does have around 40 chapters so it might not seem like it. But trust me that it is.] ||Full Disclosure|| I started the book in the end of 8th grade so it needs MAJOR editing. It also does have Sexual Chapters, as well as people of the same sex being together, murder, brutally torture talk of rape and sexual harassment. So if you do not wish to read things like that then this unfortunately isn't the book for you. ||You Have Been Warned|| First book in the Heart series. •Do Not Copy This Book In Anyway•
