About this ebook
Lauren has a secret. Colby has a problem. But when they find each other, everything falls into place. From the author of the Charmed Life series.
In alternating chapters of verse and prose, new girl Lauren and football hero Colby come together, fall apart, and build something stronger than either of them thought possible—something to truly believe in.
“Writing in alternating viewpoints, with Lauren’s chapters unfolding in free verse and Colby’s in prose, Schroeder (Falling for You) offers a thoughtful, straightforward, and fairly chaste romance between two kind, generous teens—one burdened by her past, one burdened by his future.” —Publishers Weekly
“The alternating chapters of Lauren’s poetry and Colby’s conversational prose are well written and help reveal the characters refreshingly unique perspectives, as well as their growth in positive ways . . . This light, fast-paced story will delight romance fans looking for a fun, hopeful read.” —School Library Journal
“Familiar characters and a quiet plot are elevated by poetry that is as beautiful as it is varied. Lovely in its details.” —Kirkus Reviews

Well let's be honest, this book was slow at first... But that all changed when Colby and Lauren met, it was meant to be.... And of course like everyone they had there very strong downs and then there's those magical ups.... The part that made me cry was when Lauren was Soo determined to leave it was sad. But then she didn't leave and I was soooo happy. But the part that made me smile sooo much was when Lauren kissed Colby in his truck that part just made sense.. And the rest just fell I to place and it was perfectly written out... All though I really want them to make a second book ❤
