"Cross my heart and hope to die." That's how the saying goes. But what happens when your heart stopped beating a long time ago? What if the only thing keeping you sane are all the lies that come out of your mouth? There is a thin line between sanity and insanity. But what if you've already crossed that line? Jeremy Drake is known as the notorious bad boy of Millenium High. His every smile, every word, every look is perfectly crafted to get the desired effect. Girls literally bow at his feet. Even the girls who initially resist his advances can't help but fall for his charm. Is there something truly hidden behind that devilish smile, or is his heart just as black as his eyes? Beckett Tavora (Tah-vuh-ra) rarely smiles. She doesn't get mad. She hides her tears. Her face never betrays one emotion. As she enters Millenium High, she easily becomes the talk of the school. Mysterious. Quiet. Intriguing. Moving to a town with no trace of her parents or a guardian, what is she running from? Her feet may be moving forward but the shackles of the past never do let up, constantly pulling her back. Catching Jeremy Drake's eye from the first day is no easy feat, especially since his eyes are set on someone else. But what will the guy who literally makes every girl's knees go weak do when he comes up against the girl who doesn't feel? *This work purely belongs to me and no redistribution on any other site or in any other form is acceptable.
