Covered Edges

Scarlett White is an achieving teenager whose sole focus is her future. That focus seems to absorb most of her life, only leaving some room for her best friend and nightly episodes of her favorite show, Chopped. However, that may be attributed to her childhood and the absence that came with; a distancing mechanism developed from years of departure has made her concealed, enjoying this simple day-to-day routine. Enter Damon Black: the smug, smooth-talking transfer who knows just how to irk Scarlett and scramble her organized life. She more than wants nothing to do with Damon, but after one retaliated slap, Scarlett ensures her fate, with Damon gladly pulling the strings. Yet, strings can easily become tangled. For Damon, a fresh wound encourages a disdain towards dating, and he has a reputation-killer of a secret locked away in his room; for Scarlett, on the other hand, an ugly past has implemented a psychological need for security in her, something Damon is incapable of providing. Black and White are opposites, just like their names; however, is it possible to find a little grey? **A story about time, twists, sarcasm, and love, with a little guilty pleasure of a not-so-typical bad boy mixed in between**
