Aurora Flynn is just trying to push through her fairly average life. She is two years into her degree at a University, faced with much more than just the choice of what to major in. To her mother and irritatingly perfect older sister, the choice is simple: go straight into business and marketing, get on the fast track to graduation, and hurry up to take her place by her mother's side as co-CEO of Flynn Enterprises. That was the plan from the start, but Aurora isn't so sure that is what she wants. She isn't exactly sure what she wants at all; who she wants to be, or why she feels like something is missing in her life. While working with her best friend Tess at a local Barnes and Noble, she meets a little boy named Cameron, and his older brother Aiden. Little did Aurora know that just one simple thing, or person, could change her life so completely. She travels down a long road of love, heartbreak, and ultimate sacrifice to discover herself and find out that nothing in life is every really set in stone.

The Other Guy (BoyxBoy) ✔️
"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl? Will he fall short? Or will he fall into the arms of a guy who is in love with the girl he loves? _______________________________________ WARNING: First book EVER!
