*****WARNING****** THIS IS ONLY MY SECOND BOOK!!!!!
Leah was just a girl. She just wanted to finish school. She had one more year. She just wanted to get out of the place where she was forever alone except for a small group of friends. Being the 11th grade nerd doesn't really help you get many friends, although being on the dance team, gymnastics team, softball team, lacrosse team, and the volleyball team should. But it still didn't get her many. But what happens when she goes to a basketball game with one of her best friends and sees a good looking basketball player?
Derek's your typical 11th grade jock. But he wasn't dumb. Far from it. He just never let anyone know that. So what happens when he fails a class and needs a tutor to help him pass it. To say he was shocked was an understatement. And what happens when he gets stuck with the 11th grade nerd? His best friend's best friend. What happens when he discovers the truth about her and what it's really like to live one day in her life?

Bar Red's Redemption ✔
"If you turn your back to me again, you better be bending over, sweetheart." *** Everyone warns you about boys who go looking for troubles, who have bruised knuckles and split lips, whose eyes are so dark that it seems like they could swallow oceans and come out alive, about the boys who look like danger, but no one warns about boys who stay silent for way too long, or ones with rings under their eyes, boys with sad eyes and boys who whisper things so sweet, so quietly that you wonder if he was an angel. Everyone warns you about the bad boys, but no one seems to warn you about the broken ones. Bar Red was a broken boy who finally finds someone to help mend his scattered pieces. Everyone saw him as the untrustworthy, unstable beast who was more than willing to punch anyone's face in. Swear words and bad habits mixed with smirks and wicked grins are enough to ward anyone off. But, apparently for Clementine, that's exactly what pulls her in. She has no clue what she's getting into but she's about to find out. She wasn't innocent, not by far, but she had dignity, a warm aura, niceness, and stubbornness that could rival a mule. Mix that with Bar's possessiveness and overprotective behavior, some interesting situations will definitely arise. Adding in the fact that Clementine had to tutor Bar for the rest of the school year and his almost instinctual urge to be apart of her life, they are bound to get close. Bar swears, Clementine hates it. He fights, she glares while bandaging up his knuckles. She reads instead of eats and he refuses dinner until she joins him. He is rude and she ignores him until he apologizes. Both, easily, frustrate the other while simultaneously falling into love. Broken boys are the only ones that can fix themselves so will this broken boy manage to do so before he drives away the one girl who wiggled her way past every barrier? This is the story of a broken bad boy clashing with the sad good girl. * #1 in the Red series Stand aloneComplete
