hi guys, welcome and thank you so much for clicking on my story! this is the first book i'm publishing on wattpad and i'm so so excited. i've been drafting this book for the past month (so far 25k words in) and this book already has my whole heart. just a heads up that the story takes place in the uk so some grammar/school terms will be different (also i'm not originally from the uk so please feel free to correct any terminology!). my updates schedule is tba but will be posted soon on my message board. this is for all the girls and gals out there that love the grumpy boy who has a soft spot for the mc and the ones who fall first and fall harder. i hope you'll grow to love eden and nora's story as much as i have.
