This is my first attempt at writing a book so I apologise if it sucks!! Scarlett Madison used to live a normal life, until she went out with the wrong guy and had to run away for everything she has ever know. She is forced to change her name and leave her family and best friend behind when their lives are threatened. She becomes invisible. No one knows who she really is or where she came from and that's what is keeping everyone and everything she cares about alive. Everything in her new life is going great, that is until a fighter steps into the picture and turns her whole world upside down all over again. Jasper Knight isn't your average guy. His past is dark and it has made his life very dangerous for anyone that gets too close. He's family has been in shambles for years until he found a way to help out, but no matter how much he helps them he still can't figure out how to help himself. He is closed off to almost everyone and seems intimidating to all who look at him. Let alone when they see him fight. The black knight is known for being ruthless in the ring. But how will he fair when he meets a sippy bartender with a past just as dark as his? Will they let each other in? Will Scarlett's past come back? Will Jasper's?

No one sees her. No one knows her. Alyssa Williams is the girl who fades into the background, the one who slips through the hallways unnoticed. She wears her black hoodie like a shield, her face hidden in the shadows, always on the edge of the crowd. She doesn't want to be seen. She doesn't want to be known. Because if anyone were to truly look, they'd see the fear in her eyes, the bruises that don't heal, and the story she's terrified of telling. Her life is a quiet war she fights every day-against her father's fists, against the memories that threaten to consume her, and against the world that's turned its back on her. She's learned to survive in the silence, to hide from the chaos that swirls around her. But when she decides she's had enough, and tries to run away from the nightmare that is her home, she finds herself crashing headfirst into something-or rather, someone-who might be even more dangerous than what she's running from. Dylan Scott. The bad boy. The bully. The one everyone stays away from. His presence is a storm, and his reputation is as dark as the night. He has a group of friends who don't question his actions, a life filled with secrets, and a world where no one dares to get too close. Everyone warns Alyssa about him, but she's already seen the worst the world has to offer. So when their paths collide, she's not sure what to expect. Will Dylan help her escape the hellhole she calls home-or will he drag her back into it? The truth is, Dylan Scott is hiding as much as Alyssa. He's trapped in his own battle, with his own demons, and just like her, he's been running from something for far too long. But when his and Alyssa's lives intersect, everything begins to unravel. The walls they've built around themselves begin to crack, and neither of them can ignore the pull between them. The question is: will they be able to save each other, or will they destroy each other in the process?
