Shy

Indianna has always been shy and quiet and never liked or wanted attention. This is because being noticed has never brought her anything positive. So when she starts a new school, she braces for the worst: new faces, new hallways, and everyone wants to look at the new girl. Then there is Greyson, the school bad boy, and once he notices her, he has to start teasing her. 

But Indiana’s silence is what pulls Greyson closer and makes him intrigued. As Indianna tries to keep out of the headlines and in the shadows, Greyson is in her thoughts. He is dangerous in more ways than one, but somehow it appeals to Indiana. But something has to break when a shy girl catches the interest of a boy who pushes the limits.
