Rosaline Everett has never been good at making friends. She's shy, and clumsy, and unsure of herself. So moving to sunny Long Beach, California had her struggling to stay afloat. She just never expected to feel welcome and safe and secure. She never expected to meet him... Gorgeous and rich, Xavier Hart has never cared about anyone outside of his small group of loved ones. He doesn't have the time, never mind the energy to care about anything more than protecting his family. Maintaining his cold, bad boy demeanor kept other people out. He just never expected that he'd be the one to let someone in. He never expected his cold, impenetrable heart would be touched in such a delicate, perfect way. He never expected to meet her... Can they shelter each other from the storm?

|| Featured FREE story with exclusive paid chapters - previously a paid story || When Haley discovers the truth behind Xavier, whose silence holds a deeper meaning, she sets her mind on making his life better one small step at a time. ***** Haley Rosamond is happy with her simple life, content under the wing of her father. Well-protected, she has no idea of the darkness surrounding Xavier Hunt, with his all-black attire and infrequent presence in school-accompanied by his bruises and scars. That is, until Haley catches a glimpse of Xavier's reality and is made to question everything she knows about family and life in general. The truth, she realizes, couldn't be more different from everything she has heard. Supported by her father, Haley sets her mind on helping Xavier any way she can, and what begins with tutoring sessions, free food, and random acts of kindness blooms into friendship and something a little more. But when Haley's admission into her dream college and another tragedy in Xavier's life threaten to undo everything she has worked for, Haley needs to decide if she'll stick by Xavier or simply be another person in his life that disappears.
