Dear Me

"If you ever need to break, I can hold your pieces. I can keep them safe."

Penelope Elizabeth Howell has always been perfect. The perfect daughter, student, friend and cheerleader. Penny's life has been perfectly planned out for her. Down to the way she wears her hair, and where she'll be attending college. But when she loses her best friend to a tragic accident, she is faced with the reality of just how little control she's had over her life. She is done being perfect. And who better to help her shed her rigid rules than the boy who drove her insane through high school?

Daniel Aguilar is tall, dark, handsome, drives a motorcycle to school, smokes between classes and is tatted head to toe. But he's had his eyes set on a quiet girl with bright eyes and a gentle smile. Except, when he finally gets the courage to admit his feelings, he fumbles his opportunity and instead finds himself faced with the cheerleading princess and bane of his existence... Penelope Howell. As time progresses, and despite their history, Daniel finds that things aren't always what they seem. And maybe he's been wrong about a lot when it comes to the perfect Penny.

A year and a couple run-ins later, Penny and Daniel find themselves in an unlikely friendship and a potentially beneficial partnership. Penny has a bucket list of things she hasn't had the opportunity to experience yet due to her strict upbringing, while Daniel needs help getting the girl. But as the line between friendship and something more blurs, they'll have to decide if their connection can handle the truth or if everything will fall apart before it even begins.
