SHE'S NOT YOUR TYPE

Sixteen-year-old Rin Nayoma doesn't do spontaneous, she doesn't do crazy.  With her part-time job and a full-time commitment to school, Rin needs to stay focused.  But when the heat gets to her one summer night, Rin decides to let go for once and do something she's never done before: skinny dip.

Little did Rin realize that she'd be caught naked and dripping wet by Hayden Parise.  He's charming, outgoing, and the guy that girls practically line up to date. Rin's splash in the lake isn't her last encounter with Hayden, though, because now he's overlapping more and more into Rin's modest social life. 

She shouldn't like Hayden because he's everything Rin's not.  She shouldn't get into a relationship because she doesn't need distractions, she isn't interested.

At least...that's what Rin keeps telling herself.

warning: for suckers like me, who crave slow-burn, cliché, and dig the vibe of 90s/2000s teen romcoms

also featuring:  lakes, ice-cream, cats, first love, academic stress, outgrowing old friendships, did I say slow-burn?

AUTHOR'S NOTE

When it comes to She's Not Your Type, think She's All That, To All the Boys I've Loved Before, 10 Things I Hate About You...anything that induces nostalgia, laughs, butterflies. If you've read my work Flower Boy, this story is of a similar caliber.

Quick favor? Listen to the first song on the playlist, "We Don't Have to Take Our Clothes Off" by Ella Eyre. I think it's such a beautiful song that encompasses the spirit of the story -- even though Rin does the literal opposite of the what the title says lol.

Best,

Elflia
