Love At It's Bloodiest

For Rhiel's (Ree - ell) fifteenth birthday, all she asks for is for her parents to show up to her choir performance. She knows they won't, but she wishes for it anyway. A week or so after her birthday, a boy moves in across the street from her and her family. His name is Axel, but everyone calls him 'emo boy'. While Rhiel is puzzled by him, Axel hates her. He hates her friends, he hates her money, and he hates her way of living. What he doesn't know is that know one really knows her. Rhiel and Axel are thrown together in every way possible: Science projects, desk arrangements. The list goes on. So while Rhiel tries to break Axel's defensive barriers, Axel is struggling to know the real her, even if they both get hurt along the way.
