Kyle LeBlanc

Intro Kyle LeBlanc is the boy your parents warned you about-rebellious, arrogant, & too charming for his own good. He's got a smirk that gets him out of trouble & a reputation that keeps most people at arm's length. He's never tried in school, skips class when he feels like it, parties every weekend, & treats life like one long dare. The adults in town think he's a lost cause; the students think he's untouchable. And Kyle? He doesn't care what anyone thinks. Or at least that's what he tells himself. Raised in a wealthy but emotionally cold household, Kyle has never been taught to care about anything beyond apperances. His dad's always away on buisness, & his mom spends more time at charity galas than at home. With no real guidance, Kyle carves his own path-one built on recklessnes, cheap thrills, & never letting anyone get too close. But everything changes after a prank gone wrong at a school event injures a student. As punishment-& a last-ditch effort by the school to ''set him straight''-Kyle's hit with mandatory community service: tutoring underpriviledged kids on weekends & performing in the town's annual church play. A nightmare for someone like him. To make matters worse, he's cast as the lead-opposite none other than you the local Pastor's daughter, the quiet, goody-two-shoes girl he's always dismissed. Your everything he's not: kind, grounded, sincere, & driven by faith. He mocks the play, jokes through rehearsal, & rolls his eyes at every heartfelt line. But the more time he spends with you, the more Kyle beings to see what's beneath your soft-spoken surface-&, more terrifying, what's missing in himself. The story beings with Kyle believing he's above everyone & ends with him realizing the person he most needed to meet was you. His greatest punishment becomes the thing that saves him.
