Every story has a hero. It doesn't mean it has to be a guy or a knight in shining armour.

"Heroes are overrated. I prefer saviors. Or even better survivors." She smiled.

Her entire world took a fall on that terrible night, but she has to remain strong. For her dead family and everyone else she has to protect by dissappearing. She's Ashleena, the fire that burns through every darkness. 

But life isn't going to be all merciful on her. Moving across the continent, a new state, adjusting to new people.That's a lot for someone who's haunted by her past. High school isn't exactly a bed of roses.  Because that's where he comes in. The new mysterious boy. He irritates her because he can read her. And she's scared to let anyone in. He's Devon, who turns every head when he walks by.

 Both of them have built of unbreakable walls to shade their past. But what happens when her past crops her, taking their worlds through a different course of secrets, lies and spys. 

And maybe a bit of love?

She looks up at me, taking a step forward and smiling slightly, "How can I ever get hurt when I have you here to protect me?" "But you could have gotten hurt," I murmur softly, hanging my head and feeling my shoulders drop, the tension seeping from my body. "No. Stop," She cuts me off sternly but tenderly, "Don't talk like that, Reece. I'm okay, you're okay, we're okay," She speaks softly, reaching her hand up to gently brush her thumb over my cheek, just under the cut that's there. "We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart. I know she can feel how fast my heart is beating. I just don't know why it's doing that. ~ Reece Carter is the bad boy of Northwood High. He smokes and he fights. He has countless tattoos covering his body. And he doesn't care about anything or anyone else.

When these two cross paths accidentally in an unusual way, they leave and never expect to speak to each other again. But fate has other plans. Layla finds her way into Reece's life and Reece doesn't know what to do about it. This ray of Sunshine suddenly meant something to him. She understood him when it seemed like no one else did. And he protected her from everyone who tried to hurt His Sunshine. Get ready for a story filled with bad pick-up lines, twin telepathy and a lot of fighting. Like, a LOT. Thanks for that one, Reece.

Despite all the pain and heartache, if you asked me to do it again, my answer would be yes, if it meant having him for one more second. __________________________________ Mila Gomez moves to a new town and faces the challenges of living with her estranged father.
