Lines (Greyford High #1) by Anna B. Doe

Review by Morgen Lines by Anna B. Doe is book one of the Greyford High series. It is full of high school drama, the misunderstanding of young love, witty banter and old grudges. Maybe the line between love and hate is thinner than anyone ever realized. Derek King is used to having all the perks of popularity and wealth. He has no problem getting the attention of girls, but there is only one that has caught his interest. He’s made sure that no one else will notice her. Amelia ‘Lia’ Campbell loves nothing more than to have her nose in a book or to be doing her homework with her best friend. She enjoys being invisible, it’s her safety blanket. Her peers at school mostly ignore her unless they’re tormenting her. Maximillian ‘Max’ Sanders starts at a new school and shakes things up. He is immediately drawn to the beauty that is Lia. He can’t fathom why the other students treat her with such disdain. That is until he notices the way Derek looks at her like nothing else exists. He sees something precious to be appreciated and decides to do something about it. It’s the first day of senior year and Lia is already counting down the days ‘til graduation. The rivalry between Max and Derek is immediate and quickly becomes heated whenever Lia is involved. So used to being the butt of jokes Lia doesn’t know what to make of the new kid Max. He’s kind, considerate and quite stubborn. Tensions run high and the waters at school are murky at best. Can they make it to graduation with their hearts intact? The story is fast paced and an emotional whirlwind. We get to see the story from Lia and Derek’s POV. Seeing their motivations and how their minds work, adds a great depth to the characters. There’s a passion that burns just beneath their skin. A mere kiss sets it free. No matter how hard they try, there is no denying the connection they share and fight as they might, they may never break free. The drama of youth and the doubts that plague their minds make for a fun and entertaining read. **ARC provided for an honest review**
