Pearl Benz's life was normal, or that's what she thought. She had two best friends; Kate DiGharnski and Melissa Snyder and was a good student in school. Her 'perfect' life quickly turned around when she met Shawn Johnson. He wasn't the typical bad ass player, but was a sweet loving, sometimes shy kinda guy. She really felt he could be 'the one'. Perfect right? Think again. Kate DiGharnski thought she was pretty lucky; after all, she had an hot boyfriend, she was on the cheerleading squad, and had two loyal best friends. Then, events start happening, and Kate's not sure about what she thinks of her life anymore. Things get complicated, especially when the new guy comes and leaves her feelings jumbled up. Kate's life is definitely changing, and she's not sure if it's for the better or for the worse. Melissa Snyder has never felt so confused in her life. She could've described herself pretty easily: dedicated, animal lover, kind, optimistic, nature girl...but when she meets Peyton DiGharnski, she's not sure what to think. He's the total opposite of her-hot when she's cute, rebellious when she has never broken a single rule. So, when he starts to pay attention to her, is it for real or just pretend? These three best friends each have their own separate problems that lead to mixed feelings and a OVchanged perspective. Will they be able to get through the obstacles together or face them alone? Will their friendship survive? Find out in It's Complicated by p6w5z6r4:)
