Sweet Heartbreak (Weybridge Academy Book 1)

Product Information

You ever find seeing someone you used to love the equivalent of re-opening a painful wound? So did Patsy Cline. “You want me to act like we've never kissed? You want me to forget (to forget)? Pretend we've never met (never met)? And I've tried and I've tried, but I haven't yet. You walk by and I fall to pieces.” 21. “Maps,” Yeah Yeah Yeahs (2003) This slow burning, pleading ballad featuring the golden voice of Christina Aguilera is about how powerless you can feel in a dying relationship. Did it break your heart when you first heard it? Honestly, we’re still recovering. 41. “Always Be My Baby,” Mariah Carey (1995) When someone you loved moves on before you do, leave it to Patsy to perfect that gut-punching feeling decades before Adele was doing it. 49. "For the First Time," by The Script (2010) Every now and then, we all fall apart. 65. "I Don't Wanna Live Forever," by Zayn Malik and Taylor Swift (2017)

Bad breakups really do leave you feeling out of faith and, well, torn. This song perfectly captures the feeling of realizing something (and someone) you’d believed in is little more than an illusion, and may we recommend Imbruglia’s acoustic cover, off MTV Unplugged, for an extra side of angst. 64. "Total Eclipse of the Heart," by Bonnie Tyler (1983) After you get through the grief of the split, it's time to rise up and remember you're, wonderfully, you — and no one can take that away. As Katy puts it, "Now look at me I'm sparkling, a firework, a dancing flame, You won't ever put me out again. I'm glowin' oh whoa. So you can keep the diamond ring. It don't mean nothing anyway. In fact you can keep everything yeah, yeah except for me." 114. "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)," by Kelly ClarksonWe all have someone in our journal we could dedicate this song to. 14. “Gives You Hell,” The All-American Rejects (2008) The haunting chorus — “Wait, they don’t love you like I love you” — will haunt you as you navigate seeing an old flame ignite a new relationship. 22. “New Rules,” Dua Lipa (2017)

The “woulda, coulda, shoulda” vibes are strong in this sexy ballad from Frank Ocean. The song bounces between defending feelings, shedding tears, and asking “Do you think about me still? Do ya, do ya?” It’s a tornado of emotions, the kind of song you listen to at night when you just need to cry it out a bit. 12. “Call Out My Name,” The Weeknd (2018) They begin a relationship but soon find that both their families will not accept the relationship and the one thing their families will accept is marriage. How to read Sweet heartbreak Alexandra story about online? A hit off the band’s Cooleyhighharmony album, “End of the Road” is a ballad attempt to regain a lost love. While the lyrics can get quite intense (“You belong to me I belong to you. Although we've come to the end of the road, still I can't let go. It's unnatural. You belong to me, I belong to you”), it’s feeling that you just can’t pull yourself out of someone’s orbit in song form. 7. “Used to Know Me,” Charli XCX (2022) It should be a simple request. Noah is the king of Weybridge Academy, the heir to an empire and a serial heartbreaker. I'm just the new girl who grew up waiting tables. I don't fit into Noah's world, and he could never be a part of mine. Since it hit the radio, this song has been the go-to anthem of many post-breakup situations. It’s the relief of being free from a relationship, it’s the power of the lesson learned, and it’s the confidence of knowing that whoever you’re splitting from really missed out on something good. We love Kelly for this one. 6. “End of the Road,” Boyz II Men (1991)With angst and attitude, JoJo almost makes you happy it's over: "Get out, right now, it's the end of you and me. It's too late and I can't wait for you to be gone. 'Cuz I know about her and I wonder how I bought all the lies. You said that you would treat me right, but you were just a waste of time." 71. “Bring It On Home to Me,” Sam Cooke (1975) Sweet Heartbreak is a story of forbidden love, where two hearts are about to break. It’s the first book in the Weighbridge Academy series. Sweetheart by Alexandra Moody is a young adult fiction novel with a fun, fresh plot, and memorable characters. If we had to tie a post-breakup period to this song, it would be the hazy, confused days immediately following a split. The lyrics play out a person begging for a reason — and that’s something we can all relate to. 18. “Dancing On My Own,” Robyn (2010)
