Four years ago, a tragic accident landed Carrie Anderson in the hospital with amnesia, leaving her devoid of any information of her past life. And four years since the star cross-country runner and her family moved to a new town, hoping for what seems like a fresh start, for everyone's sake.
It's been about two years since things have been getting back to something close to normal.
In the small town of Oakville, nothing is really a secret, except for Carrie's past of course, but no one actually knows much about it. By now, it's senior year of high school, and it looks like there's a picture perfect future ahead of Carrie. A bright running career, an understanding boyfriend, great friends, and colleges scouting her out for their cross-country team. But when a person of Carrie's past life shows up and and moves to Oakville, the game plan changes completely. Now not only is she running to a finish line, she's running from her past and all things that come with it.

Imagine that you go to bed tonight and in the morning you wake up to find that four years have gone by. That's exactly what happened to Cassie Clark. When she went to bed, she was only nineteen years old, but when she wakes up thousands of miles from home and all alone in a New York City hospital with no memory of how she got there, she's twenty four. The only memories Cassie has are of her everyday boring wholesome life back home in South Carolina, but when she wakes up she's confronted with the fact that the last four years of her life have been anything but boring or wholesome. Being in New York with no money, no family, no friends, and no job is scary enough, but now good girl Cassie is left with nothing but the pieces of a past that she can't believe could actually belong to her and the mystery of what led to her being found beaten nearly to death in an old deserted warehouse. To top it all off, the only person who seems to care about Cassie anymore is a boyfriend who she doesn't even know. Owen Tracer was nothing more than a player and a thug. Girl after girl and working for the mysterious 'business' had left him burnt out and tired of his own life. He was ready to get out, take the money he'd earned before it got him killed, and go straight, but the business had one last job for him to do before he was free. Tasked with posing as the boyfriend to a girl who had somehow tangled herself in a business mess, Owen goes to the hospital prepared to feel her out for any information she may have and to get rid of her if she knew too much. What he wasn't prepared for was finding that the girl was none other than Cassie Clark. Not only did he know the girl, but he couldn't stand her. However, the Cassie he finds isn't anything like the one he remembers. Owen was only supposed to get close enough to find out if she was a danger to the business. He wasn't supposed to fall for her. But once he does, he's the only one who can save her.

[COMPLETED] Autumn Cross is now in 12th grade at her new school, Willington High, with only one goal in mind: passing the 12th grade and going to a good college. But her world changes when she meets Ryder Becker. Ryder Becker is one of the most popular boys in all of Willington High. I mean, all the boys want to be him and all the girls worship him. He could care less about grades because he knows that football is what's going to get him into a good college. But his carelessness in grades changes when he meets Autumn. Not only does Autumn get partnered up with Ryder for the biggest class project of the whole year, she also lives on the same street as him. In the beginning she thinks it's a total curse, but maybe it's a blessing in disguise... They both may pretend on the outside that they are fine, but truth be told, they are both broken. The way his smile doesn't match his sad eyes draws her towards him, and the scars and bruises on her skin draw him towards her. A cure for your sadness could be another person, right? Well put her broken pieces together with his, and you have cracked the code. Love could put their broken pieces back together. ----------------------------------- A sky full of stars and he was still staring at me. "Why are you staring like that?" I asked him. "You scare me, Autumn." Ryder admitted. "How come?" He looked down at the grass beneath us then back at me and gulped. "Because I want to tell you secrets I'm too scared to admit to myself." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🤍I wrote this when I was around 13-14 (i'm 19 now) so some chapters may be cringy but I am too lazy to rewrite them, and still so many people enjoy this book and i'm truly grateful!

But anyways,enjoy the book (hoping to write more books in the future)🤍 Highest rank: 2019 #1 scars 03/12 #7 love 04/30 #4 romance 06/07 #1 highschool 06/07 #5 teen fiction 06/09 #1 cute 06/15 #1 lovers
