❝When the bad boy met the good girl, he just knew that it was love at first sight.❞
Natalie has had a rough past that involved her first love, who has left her behind to suffer with the memories they had together. Because of this she has put a steel shield on her heart, and has avoided the topic of love altogether. Which isn't a big surprise as to why she is dense toward the terrifying delinquent's feelings, not only is she scared of him but wants nothing to do with him. But just how long will she ignore the attraction between them, and ignore the bad boy's heart?
John is handsome, strong, and has everything on the palm of his hand. The men fear him because of his dark background and his notorious bad past, while the woman fawn over him because of his dashing looks. Yet the silent, gentle beauty at school doesn't so much as glance at him, in fact she is plainly terrified of him. It turns out his first love has to be with a girl who doesn't want it, and this irks him since she doesn't succumb so easily like the others. Seems he has a tough opponent, and he will rest at nothing to obtain her.
Jordan never noticed Juliet. Juliet had given up to get his attention. And if they end up hiding together in the same closet, he can't stop talking about himself. So how to shut him up? Kissing him...

PREVIEW into chapter 8
I climb up the stairs and find myself in a long corridor what spread to two directions. Matt's bedroom was on the east wing so I turn to my left and walk toward the last door in the end. But before I can reach half way, a door on my right opens and out runs Jordan. We bump into each other.
"What the..???"
I steady myself, grabbing his jacket and prevent myself from falling backward.
"Run!" He says.
"What?" I release him.
"Run," he grabs my hand and starts pulling me with him.
"Why would I...?"
I turn around while I'm dragged toward the stairs and see Tiffany, all angry and face cherry red come throw the door Jordan had exited a minute ago.
"You dirty bitch!" She yells at the top of her lungs as she sees me, Jordan's hand still gripes me.
