Chapter One

It's the summer of 1992. Serena is the quiet, moody and introverted teen at the back of the classroom. She's bookish, outspoken and unlike her close friend Kitty, doesn't have time for boys. Still recovering from her friend's death the previous year, the summer can only seem more draining. But near the end of her fifth year, she finds herself enchanted by her handsome new English teacher. The two grow a deep liking for one another, but feelings like this must be kept secret, mustn't they?
