Olivia Charles is an apprehensive, quiet girl who tries to do everything right. She has low confidence and low self esteem. Getting teased daily by her peers doesn't help.

"Wait, why didn't you tell me? I've been worrying." He set me down beside him and returned to our hugging embrace.
"Sorry. I just found out." I admitted.
"What are you studying?"
"Psychology. I want to become a therapist for children who have lived through abuse." I chewed the inside of my cheek, not sure how he would react to that.
"Liv." He said quietly and rubbed the back of his neck "That is..." his words choked up and he cleared his throat "That is amazing."
I smiled coyly and buried my head in the crevice of his neck, inhaling his familiar smell. There was no flinching from his body and I knew it was because he was prepared for our closeness since we were dancing but generally Liam had been doing okay with the unexpected touch and I couldn't be prouder of how far he has come.
"Let's go get drinks." Liam said after the fourth song and I nodded enthusiastically because my mouth felt parched.
"Hey, try the punch." Jordan said as he suspiciously guarded the punch bowl.
"You spiked the punch?" I asked, resulting in a eye roll from him.
"Real mature." Liam said sarcastically.
"I'm not meant to be mature, I don't have long to act like a high schooler." he grabbed the ladle and filled two clear cups up with red liquid and handed them to us.
I sipped diligently, there was more alcohol than there was punch.
"That's right Olive, maybe you'll finally put out for my boy Liam, it is prom night after all." Red punch blasted out of my lips and sprayed everywhere at Jordan's comment. I finished off my dramatic splutter with a coughing fit. Jordan just laughed at me in a carefree manner and then walked away.
"Sorry. I'll get him back for that later." Liam said shyly as he handed me a napkin from the punch table.
"You didn't tell them we hooked up?"
"No, it's none of their business, is it?" He replied straightly.
"No I guess not." I muttered, reluctant to mention that I told Tia the day after it happened.
We had only hooked up once, we were taking things at Liams pace. I knew he wasn't going to be magically cured after the first time we were intimate but now I know what it's like to be with him in that way I feel like a walking hormone constantly waiting for the next time.
"Prom night." He muttered under his breath as he reached up and rubbed the back of his neck "so much pressure" he added.
I grabbed his hand and planted a kiss to his knuckles to reassure him even though my body ached for it so badly.
"We're gonna go back to mine after this, grab a pizza on the way and curl up in bed with a Netflix movie. It's gonna be perfect."
He reached up and ran the back of his hand across my cheek with sympathetic eyes.
"Sorry." That small word was laced with so much shame.
"Don't be silly, we have the whole of our future to be together. Dorm sex, college parties, hometown reunions" I listed off all the things to look forward to and it made a smile tug at the corner of his lips.
"Yeah, you're right." He agreed.
"This is only the beginning."

Is my second book...
"We're just two people thrown together through the bond of knowing one another's secrets."
Mia and Noah couldn't be any more different. When a change in circumstances has Mia transferring from her private school to a public one, she couldn't fit in any less even if she tried. The kids at Bell View know that money is an invisible line that separates two worlds, so it's not surprising Noah calls her a spoilt little brat on her first day.
Or is it?
Noah hasn't uttered a single word to anybody in over a year. So what happens when he talks to Mia and she accidentally finds out his biggest secret, will she tell everybody just to get back at him or are there bigger things at stake other than his rude personality?
