The Senator's Son - The Senator's Son, #1

A tale as old as time. A story of two unlikely characters: Emma, a quiet, lonely outcast, and Zach, a self-confident rich kid with a heart. Emma is off to college chasing after her best friend and secret crush, Jake, but once there, her life comes crumbling down. Jake betrays her, sending her life into turmoil. It's then that Zach, the senator's son, comes in. Jake's girlfriend, Bianca, hates Emma and is threatened by Emma rooming with Jake.
After Bianca's constant bullying, Emma cracks and retaliates - and Jake throws Emma out of the apartment. Thinking herself friendless and without any future at college, Emma gets ready to return to her small hometown and tell her father everything. Then she receives a surprising offer of a place to stay from Zach. Living with Zach doesn't solve all of Emma's problems. Bianca is bent on revenge and starts a campaign to humiliate Emma.
Zach, aware of Bianca's intentions, does all he can to protect Emma because he likes her, even if she's a bit oblivious to his feelings. As they grow closer and Emma realizes she cares about Zach, too, Bianca exacts her revenge. Jake finally sees Bianca for who she truly is and tries to choose Emma instead, but it's too late. Emma has found love with the most unlikely person: The Senator's Son.
