"This thing between us." He said, gesturing to the space between our bodies. "It's bound to happen. You know it. I know it." He tipped his head to the side and lowered his face until it was inches from mine. I sucked in a breath when those vibrant green eyes met mine under a set of thick eyelashes. "Don't fight it." He finished. ****** Kalley Jackson is set on leaving her life behind. After years of hiding and living like the akward anti-social girl, her last year of high school seemed like the perfect time to let herself loosen up and start living like any normal teenage girl would. Moving on with her mother seemed like the best option. Coming back to the town where she was born may be the right thing to do. She is willing to start new and let out her true self, but when she gets involved with the school's football star, she ends up realizing that the life she thought of exploring may not be all that real either. © 2018, Netflix-and-cry
