She's With Me (Book 1, the With Me series)
Amelia Collins, a 'directionally challenged' new student, is determined to fly under the radar at King City High. But her first day quickly spirals into chaos when a painful collision leads to a fiery confrontation with the school's resident 'jerk-face' Aiden, putting her directly in the spotlight she so desperately tried to avoid. With a mysterious past and a set of rules from her mom about 'no boyfriends, no social media, no teams or clubs,' Amelia navigates a new school, new friends, and a magnetic pull towards the very person she should avoid.

The warning bell shrieked, a cacophony that sent students scrambling through the maze of King City High. Amelia Collins, a self-proclaimed 'directionally challenged' new student, found herself adrift in the sea of bustling teenagers, her schedule clutched in her hand like a lifeline.

"Shit," she muttered, realizing she was going to be late. Her ribs, still mending from an injury a few weeks prior, twinged with every hurried step. The dismissive secretary had offered little more than a map and a 'Good luck' this morning, but Amelia knew waving a map around would be a flashing neon sign: 'New girl, eat me alive!'

Five minutes. That's all she had to find Room 341. "Screw it," she mumbled, plunging blindly down the hall, fumbling in her bag for the very map she'd sworn not to use. Her gaze fixed on the bag, she didn't see them coming.
