High school in the early 90s: it was before cell phones and social media, but the problems were the same.  How do you get the guy you're interested in to notice you?   What happens if you fall in love with your best friend?  Why does physics class keep factoring into your love life?

This novella is loosely based on my own high school experiences... but sort of an alternate version of them.  You can only make one set of choices in life, so it's fun to explore what could have been - but wasn't - in fiction.  Also, set in 1991-92, this is kind of a period piece now!  In some ways it's a love letter to the teen books I read back in the 80s and 90s, in particular those by Ellen Conford and Paula Danzinger.  I hope you enjoy it.

"Uh, Melissa! The truth is," Jason mumbled and our eyes locked "That I-I'm in love with you" he stuttered and I was stunned. My heart started racing. I had never expected a jerky guy like him to love an innocent girl like me. Especially after what he had done. "Yeah, right!" I scoffed because I made sure not to fall into his trap again. Have you ever expected to fall for the person you hate? Well, this is the story of Melissa and Jason. They become neighbors but their first meet between the two doesn't happen as it is normally contemplated. Soon, they both become friends but something tragic breaks them apart. But unexpectedly soon, the hate turns into love. . . . How does that happen? Book cover by @lilyoongs_ All rights reserved. Copyright © 2021 lilyoongs_
