Published version edition 1 (2023) 2nd edition is released only (Feb 2025) The novel version with all bonus chapters and the extended Epilogue that was wished for in the original version. Florence isn't just dealing with the usual troubles of coming of age, she's also developed a crush on the silent boy sitting across from her. A boy she's never even spoken to, at that. Just watching him was enough, exchanging silent glances and noting the way he keeps his noisy friends in check. When a mutual friend causes their paths to cross more often, her hope that the crush might not be entirely one-sided blooms. But life can't all be roses. When one thing seems to look up for the sunshine girl, another quickly turns south. Her already strained relationship with her parents morphs the more she goes out and enjoys her youth, and the closer she gets to the silent boy she likes, the more resentful her parents seem to grow. Now she has to walk the tightrope of keeping up her sunny appearance everyone knows her for while hiding a dangerous secret. Sommerstall Academy is a contemporary teen romance story between a quiet boy with outgoing friends and a girl that likes flowers filled to the brim with cute, funny, and occasionally heartbreaking moments- not to mention steamy scenes...

The Fated Series. Book #1. "A single minute without her in my arms and it felt like a lifetime." - Mateo Ramos My name is Mateo Adam Ramos. To most, it means nothing. But to the right people? My name sends a shiver down their spine. It's a name wrapped in blood, a legacy of violence and power-of a family that clawed its way to the top and left bodies in its wake. When you hear my name, you don't ask questions. You run. That was supposed to be my life: uphold the reputation, live up to the blood in my veins. Simple, right? Then she came along. A girl with soft brown eyes, a heart too good for this world, and a soul that gleams with everything I've tried to bury. She's goodness wrapped in temptation, a light I should be running from, not toward. But here I am, caught like a moth in her flame, my newest and most dangerous weakness. I wasn't supposed to care. I wasn't supposed to want anything more than power and control. But fate doesn't give a damn about my plans-or my family's rules. And now I'm tangled up in her, breaking every rule I was born to follow, chasing something that could ruin us both. This is the story I never wanted to tell. The story of a man born to lead, who's now risking everything to follow one woman. Watch me try to rewrite my fate... and see how much blood I'm willing to spill to keep her safe. # 1 - goodstory 1/28/23 # 1 - amor 6/16/23 #2 - loveatfirstsight 6/4/24

{𝘉𝘖𝘖𝘒 𝘖𝘕𝘌 𝘖𝘍 𝘛𝘏𝘌 𝘓𝘖𝘝𝘌𝘓𝘌𝘚𝘚 𝘛𝘙𝘐𝘓𝘖𝘎𝘠} Ria Romano knew hurt like the back of her hand. She was dealt her fair share of bad cards, more than anyone so young should have to face. A cynical girl riddled with the remnants of her past, a shattered sort of soul. She concealed like it was second nature; her instinct being to suppress. She'd offer you a cigarette with a shrug while you were crying because she never was too great with affection. She didn't smile so often but when she did and it was directed at you, you'd never feel such satisfaction. I was told Aria preferred to be alone, isolated; clouding her mind with inhales of her cigarette and drowning it in alcohol. Until she was dealt her good card, out of the pack of bad. They had a love beautiful enough to last a lifetime, the type directors desire to capture and authors aspire to write. Two souls, shattered by the cruelty of the world time and time again with flames that rekindled each others. They were each other's oxygen. They breathed life back into each other, those two insomniacs. <3

Riley Lachkov's life has only ever consisted of one thing - soccer. Raised in a family where emotions don't exist, Riley has put on a cold-front for as long as he could remember. Many people think that they know him - a cocky, arrogant, rude jerk who couldn't give less of a shit about what others think, but deep down, there's a part of him that no one has ever seen. A part of him that he never wants anyone to see. Archer Wilson has got everything going for him. From being at the top of all of his classes, to also being the most popular boy in school, his life is perfect. Everyone who knows Archer can confirm that he is anything but mean - with his charismatic personality, and his ability to make anyone swoon for him, he's the golden boy at Saint Arthur's Preparatory School. When Riley's family immigrated from Russia to the States, he struggles to fit in, finding it difficult to start his entire life over when the only thing he's ever known was his life back in his home country. His closed off personality and his tendency to act like a total douchebag didn't help either - in fact, it just made people want to stay away from him even more. But that doesn't stop Archer from trying. In fact, it makes him more intrigued in this new, feisty transfer student, more keen to break down all the walls that Riley has worked so hard to keep up for his entire life. Archer can't help but praise him for every little thing he does- in his eyes, Riley was an angel. He knew he was whipped the moment he saw him. What happens when Archer, the top student at Saint Arthur's, suddenly begins to develop an interest in the new transfer student, whose personality is as cold as ice? Will Riley finally begin to let him in, or will he continue to push him out, like he's done throughout his entire life? tropes: #grumpyxsunshine, #polaropposites, #slowburn, #temporaryunrequitedlove #popularnerdxlonelyathlete All Rights Reserved to Asphericity
