I needed to protect myself before I broke down the wall that I’d spent so long building up.“Get out,” I whispered.“Colten—”“I said leave,” I growled.She hesitated for a moment before she turned and raced toward the door.As soon as the door handle engaged, I pushed my hand through my hair, hating myself for acting like that.

Once the room was full of steam, I slipped into the shower and let the water beat down on my back, on the scars that littered my body.It was a painful reminder of my past. Of who I was now. And of who I could never be.One thing was for sure, I could never be what Haley wanted.I thought I knew what I was getting into when I took the dare to elevate Colten Shaw.I thought wrong.I'm determined to make my senior year epic. I'd finally risen up in social rank and now, I'm ready to rule the school. Everything seems perfect until I find myself standing in front of Colten.My boyfriend's older brother and my once friend.After he caused the car crash that killed their mother, he retreated. He became the social outcast in our community.But he's back now and drumming up a lot of attention.Attention from the school's evil queen.And thus started the dare.It was my job to "tame the beast." To bring Colten to the homecoming dance as a "functioning member of society." And as much as I want to say no, everyone wants me to say yes. So I do.That's when I discover there is so much more to Colten. It's to the point where I can't ignore it.I thought I had everything figured out but now?Now I’m not sure.And that’s a scary place to be.Some Rules are Meant to be BrokenIf you love gruff heroes with a heart of gold and kisses that will curl your toes, you'll love Rule #6: You Can't Elevate the Outcast.
