Crushed

Welcome to Hidden Falls High...the private exclusive academy in Malibu's hidden community.

I was supposed to be ecstatic now that I finally had the chance to transfer to my best friend and forever crush, Nat Donovan's school...

Only this was the year my long time crush, Nat Donovan, crushed me, and I would never be the same afterwards.

For as long as I could remember, Nat Donovan and I had been best friends. Every summer he and his younger siblings Drew and Rachel, and I would get together and spend it at my Aunt Sookie's Malibu beach house.

So when I moved in with my Aunt Sookie and transferred to Nat's school Hidden Falls High, I thought he would be happy. Only he wasn't.

Little did I know...the most popular boys at Hidden Falls High thought I was easy target. The new girl. The girl who didn't belong...and they happened to be Nat's best guy friends, The Knights of Hidden Falls High (#HFH).

Little did they know this girl isn't someone who would be easily crushed. Summer Jones may seem like a nice girl, but I am definitely not a pushover. So bring it on...
