Brayden Nickols is the softball prodigy at Eastwood – with her, the team will go to playoffs. Everyone sees the blonde haired, blue-eyed girl that everyone wants to be.
That’s not who she is though. It’s all just a façade. At school she may seem like she has the perfect life, but it’s far from it. At home she has to make sure her mother doesn’t drink herself into a stupor, make sure her little brother does his homework and is out of the wrath of her father. And as for her father, she has to take all of his hits and his words, because it’s the only way her brother will be safe.
So, you see, her life is far from perfect, but her best friends, her team, and maybe the cute football player will help her through it all.
This is a story about hard work, betrayal, determination, and love that can get through anything.
PG-15
This story will contain some language, and will focus a little bit on the concept of abuse. I do not support it at all or anything like that. I don't claim to know anything about it either. I do not mean to offend by having this in my story.
It's not too bad - there will be a lot of lighthearted moments, and romance, so it's not exactly a sad story either :)

Despite problems of his own, he becomes the most likely to be able to save her. And she was the last anyone expected to actually want to save him. But she did. She wanted him. He wanted her. But fate didn't want them together. Now, they must navigate an overprotective best friend, a homicidal father, a psychotic brother, and a hilariously crazy grandma. But, will Rei ever get her happy ending? - - - "Boxer Boy, you don't really have a choice in the matter, you either help me or I squeal about your very illegal activities," I obviously wasn't gonna tell but he didn't know that so I silently prayed he wouldn't call my bluff. He leaned down so he was eye level with me, he smelt like apples too. "Why do you wanna learn how to fight tigru?" I tried my hardest not to let my gaze flicker down to his bare chest, but it was right there and very distracting. He cleared his throat making me shoot my gaze back to him as I hoped my voice didn't come out shaky, "that's my business, just like the reason you fight is yours." His jaw sharpened as he straightened and seemed to contemplate what his next move would be. I took the time to declutter my thoughts and focus on what I needed from him; fighting lessons, the opportunity to save myself one final time. - - - "I love the book overall. It kept me on the edge of my seat and it was full of emotion! I can't wait for the sequel to come out!
