Natalie had always been a fairly happy girl with a life that she was content with. At least until six months ago when her lifelong best friend, with who she had shared everything with up until that point, suddenly decided that they needed to end their friendship with no warning. The life that she had known and loved shattered around her, taking her with it. Now, she's closed herself off from everyone around her and made a vow to herself to never let anyone in again in an effort to never have to go through that pain again.
For six months, her plan had gone smoothly and seemed fail-proof. That is until Riley, who happens to be way too handsome and charming for his own good, abruptly finds his way into her life and flips her world upside down. No matter how much she pushes him away and tries to keep her vow, she keeps finding herself in situations that could ruin everything she's worked so hard for. The more she's around him and is struck by the light he brings into the world, the harder it becomes to keep her vow, and herself, safe. Her life starts to spin out of her control as she tries to figure out what Riley really wants, who he really is, and why her gut keeps telling her that there is more to him than she could ever imagine.
As if her plate wasn't already full enough, she's also troubled with trying to figure out why Colton has been acting the way he has and why he really left her. Natalie's life has become anything but simple. But it can only go up from here, right? Wrong. The catastrophic rollercoaster that has become her life has only just begun. Will Natalie ever be able to let down the walls guarding her heart or will she miss out on any

Remember Me

I don’t understand how none of them are freezing in their miniskirts and pastel-colored crop top shirts. I’m over here in pants and a leather jacket with the hood still covering my head. Though the hood isn’t for the breeze. I roll my eyes at myself for getting distracted and perk my ears to listen better. 


“I wouldn’t be so confident. Out of the dozen times you’ve already approached him and tried to flirt or talk to him, he’s only frozen or murdered you with his eyes and never spoken so much as a word back to you,” a brunette chimes in as she looks down at the paper in front of her appearing to be bored with her friend's conversation. 


“At least he looks at me. He’s walked away as soon as anyone else has tried speaking to him. What should that tell you? He likes what he sees and is playing hard to get. He’s probably turned on by the game of the chase,” the second blonde snaps defensively.
