"Maybe one day you'll realize how much you mean to me."
One day she had it all. The best friend. The unforgettable memories. The soccer talent. The naive life.
But that changed when she went to high school.
Enter Leia Meadows. She isn't the brightest girl in school, but that doesn't stop her from pushing herself. She thought freshman year was going to be a blast, with her sophomore friend Annaleigh Rushman by her side.
As luck would have it, Leia came into high school without a single friend, Annie having moved on to bigger and better things.
But just when she thinks it could get worse, she bumps into Chris "Richie" Richards, a sophomore who just so happens to be one of the most popular kids in school.
Cue romantic music.
Yup, as cliche as it sounds, Leia falls head over heels in love with Richie, feeling the impulse to write him letters.
Despite the trouble she's heading into, she believes that maybe, just maybe, he could be the solution to all of her problems.
But, oh, just when Leia thinks she has him, he gets a date.
And that's not even the best part. (Note the sarcasm).
After a whole year, she thought she had it all under control.
She was badly mistaken.
Enter...all of the cruel bullies and helpless bystanders.
Poor, naive Leia has to go through the next three years being terribly teased, beaten, and harassed by other kids in school.
Will she ever make it through high school alive?

I'd like to note that this may sound cheesy, and I'm sorry if so. But, please, don't let that stop you from reading.
This story is for all those who have ever been bullied, whether it was verbal, physical, cyber, or what have you. I hope you enjoy this book and are able to connect with Leia as a character.

"Each one of us has a role,"Asher says, "Beau is the leader, the smooth talker that gets us the deals. Alec is the brawns, he's scary and can knock someone out with a flick of his finger. Nolan is the brains, he does surveillance, recording, calculating, the good stuff that we need. As for me, I'm the bank. I provide the money to pay for everything, not to mention the drugs. You can't be as rich and powerful as me without knowing some people."

Evie Scott wasn't the type of girl you'd notice in the hallway. She was quiet, sarcastic at times, but tended to keep her nose stuck inside a good book. She had one best friend, Sophie, and the two of them took on the world together. One fateful night, Evie and Sophie cross paths with the four bad boys of their school, Beau, Nolan, Alec and Asher, who are in the middle of conducting illegal activities. What should send them running for the hills, actually brings them closer to them. With the movement of a new gang in their territory, they must work together to find out who it is, otherwise Evie's life will be in danger. As they work together, feelings blossom and past experience come up. But what's more scarier? Dealing with an unknown gang who has a hit out for you...or falling for the bad boys?
