Gone are the cliques stories of the bad boy who falls for the good girl. At least in this Bonnie and Clyde style take on the lives of the top rebel girl and wayward boy of Calverson High School. Chase Fernandes and Scarlett Rhoers are sworn enemies while they roam the halls of the boisterous school. Each one constantly competing with each other for title of top athlete. With Scarlett constantly hitting home runs and grand slams on the diamond and Chase dominating the soccer field, tensions are tight between the two MVP's. Or so it seems to the rest of the school. While these two are rivals by day, when the moon comes out, the war paint fades away and the masks go on. What the rest of the school doesn't know is that Scarlett and Chase live next to each other in the only two remaining houses on the same dead end street and that they've been carefully concealed best friends since birth. When night falls, the partners in crime sneak out to steal, spy, vandalize, and cause as much trouble as possible. Known to the police as Nightcrawler and Stormrunner, Scarlett and Chase have been on the covers of wanted posters since they were in freshmen. They've now mastered the art and have never been caught once. They're there and then they're not. You never even saw them. But it becomes harder and harder to keep their night endeavors a secret when a little mischief turns into something much bigger and more dangerous. The government has been informed of the upscale in the severity of the crimes. The wanted posters now get the heading Dead or Alive. Scarlett and Chase know that it's time to stop their schemes but this is easier said than done. Chase is thick as stone but there is only one thing that will change Scarlett's mind. The only thing that she can't live without and the one thing she will go to the ends of the earth the save.

This is going downhill very fast. Jack turns to me. "Scar, we need to talk," he says lowly. Then loud enough for Levi to hear, "So can you please get this kid to leave." "Hey, you don't get to come in here and start ordering her around," Levi says harshly. "You don't control her." "And you think that you do?" Jack spits. ♔ When Scarlett moved off to college, she hoped to start anew and find her way in this world alone. Two problems.

~~~~ Finally the day is over, things could have gone a lot worse but the only bad thing I got from today was getting paired with Tim in a business studies assignment. Me and him both arrived late third class and others had already chosen their partners, Dee paired with Nat. I tried conversing with Tim but the only thing I got back was a stare, I looked like a fool. It settles it I hate Timothy Storm. I know hate is a big word, but I never try to converse with anyone and when I finally did I got stared at. ~~~~ As you can see this is your typical cliche love story, the bad boy (Tim) and the the good girl (Kim) are forced to join forces due to the most dispicable activities of them all.....a school project. We have all ready a story like that before....... Infact you already know the ending Or do you? For all we know Kim may or may not be the good girl she claims to be. Is Tim really bad or maybe it's just an act. I promise you this is mostly going to be like most stories, with the crazy bitches that always making the female lead's life hell, the demons of the past coming back to haunt them and other things you have read before, But please just read the book you won't regret it, and if by any chance you do then feel free to cuss me out at the of the book........ but whatever you do read till the end. P.S I may or may not be a little rusty when it comes to writing. I am an amateur after all. If this is making you have second thoughts about reading the book....... forget I even wrote it and proceed on saving this story to your reading list *wiggles eyelashes innocently*. ~~~~
