Adam Hayes has always been the golden boy of Oakmont High School. The perfect student, the star athlete, the ladies' man; he's a storybook character placed in the real world. Adam has it all, but sometimes he wonders if this is the life he really wants.
Thessaly 'Tessa' Callaghan is the reserved theatre student with no time for charlatanry and no tolerance for people who spend their lives polishing themselves to impress others, and she certainly has no interest in investing her time in the school sweetheart.
After Tessa and Adam interact for the first time, they seem to be inexplicably drawn together, and as they get to know each other, both realise that not everything is what it seems at the surface. Through friendship, heartbreak, self-discovery and betrayal, will Tessa and Adam divulge into each other's lives permanently, or will they remain worlds apart?

To Love Asher Cole
Asher Cole could be more interested in a rock than Oakleigh Keating. And yet, Oakleigh could not be more interested in Asher. Oakleigh Keating has had a crush on Asher Cole, a close friend of hers, since before she could remember. Yeah, Oakleigh and every other girl that's ever met him. Star football player, criminally good looks and a panty melting smile? It's no wonder. But despite spending years trying to get him to notice her, Asher only seems to see Oakleigh as his little sister's friend or someone to tease or laugh at. But after seventeen years of hopefully pining after a boy who couldn't care less, Oakleigh decides it's time to grow up. Leave Asher Cole in the dust and move onto bigger and better things - like the Royal Albert Hall. Like her career as a ballerina. Like getting skinnier. Like the promise she made to her father. The answer is simple: Forget Asher Cole. So why can't she get this damn boy out of her head? --- TW: The main character of this book suffers from an undiagnosed eating disorder. This book is not designed to harm, trigger or offend anyone. Not everyone in the world of ballet has these experiences, but some do, and if this work of fiction offends you please stop reading.
