All that high school junior Ellie Morris-Whittaker wants is to play division one soccer in college. Good thing she has a full ride to a super-prestige prep school, right? But her history grades are tanking, and losing her scholarship means bye bye prep school. Enter her new tutor, William - the hot student council president she can't stop thinking about. And even though he's kinda-sorta dating someone else, it's pretty clear he's also kinda-sorta crushing on Ellie. It's her own personal purgatory, until William's troublesome, varsity star striker brother Theo proposes a solution: a fake dating ruse. Too bad Theo's annoying AF and definitely not worth Ellie's time. But when Ellie's almost benched for good, Theo's pretty much the only one whose pointers can help win her spot back. And the more Ellie gets to know Theo, the more she realizes that she might've crushed on the wrong brother. Worse, she might actually be falling for the guy she was only supposed to be fake dating...

She was the girl who was afraid of love. Terrified of it. It isn't permanent, she believed, it leaves you and it leaves you broken. He was the boy who desperately needed it. Love--the only thing that could've rooted him to this world. Ophelia and Alastair. Their story of unspoken whispers and wishful hopes. Broken souls and shattered hearts. Not everything was meant to be happy. Not their story. . . . . . Text copyright © Crystal7016 ™ 2021

Emery Ashford had a smart mouth. She was known for it. As an outgoing teenager Emery was always hanging out with friends and with a lack of filter she always said what was on her mind. Especially if it had to do with that irritative jock. She hated him with every fiber in her body. She hated his charming nature, his arrogance, his lack of care, and the way he got on her nerves. But the thing she hated most, although she'd never admit it, is that she would stick up for him. Not like he ever needed it. She wanted nothing more than to get away from him. But it's completely impossible. He lived right across the street. Everything about senior year had been going smoothly until, Bang. Jackson Riley had a pretty mouth. Pretty face too. As the school's football captain he's always been the talk. For years he's been entertained by the smartass that is Emery Ashford. She was a pain in his ass, but he knew he'd be bored without her. When he ends up giving Emery another concussion, he's determined to make the last two months of her senior year hell. That's if he hasn't been doing that already. There's only one thing in his way. Concussion or not Emery isn't going down without a fight. It seems the more she doesn't want him around, the more he happens to be. She thinks her life is spiraling into the ground...but maybe she has it all wrong. With an offer she can't refuse and a heat of the moment bet, it's time for the both of them to realize that there's a thin line between love and hate. And with an injury like this, that line is surely to blur. #1 in annoying [12/30/22] #1 in brothersbestfriend [1/6/23] #1 in hate [1/15/23] #1 in teens [1/28/23] #1 in tension [3/18/23] #1 in summer [5/8/23] #1 in player [5/13/23] Started [Oct 2022] Finished [May 2023]

One year later Skylar Anderson, enrolled in Philadelphia College of Arts, has nothing more to worry about other than dozing off between classes. And her might-just-be crumbling relationship with her boyfriend--Caden Miller. Long-distance relationship wasn't what Skylar had been looking forward to. Not when her boyfriend was once again finding it a little too hard to not go back to his old ways. Old, secretive ways with the mysterious New York gangs. It's like they all say: once a gang leader, always a gang leader. Or a liar. Both of them works. New secrets once more brewing to the surface, with a past that was better left buried. Not to forget, the police department was also searching for Blake Matthews--who, unfortunately (or not) had escaped prison bars. There was so much Skylar thought she knew, but she didn't. So much that's been left in the dark. And secrets always have a way of coming out. After all, what's a life without some lies? Text copyright © Crystal7016 ™ 2022
