Lucas Vargas vehemently denies being gay, but finds he can't deny Charlie Grayson what he wants whenever he comes over. The problem with their arrangement is that it doesn't feel like two friends using one another to get off; it feels suspiciously like love. As Lucas gets to know Charlie in more intimate ways, he feels his emotions spiral out of control. There's something different about eclectic Charlie, something that Lucas is undeniably attracted to. Below the surface of their arrangement a darker secret lurks, one not visible to the naked eye and long forgotten. In an attempt to reconcile his confusing sexuality, his loneliness, and his growing love, Lucas tries to find ways to keep Charlie close by. In a small town where rumors run rampant, the boys keep their intense intimacy a secret. When the girl next door threatens to upheave everything him and Charlie have built together, his old friends's backlash against his friendship with Charlie becomes more severe, and the frequent bruises on Charlie's body begin to paint a picture too horrible and disturbing to imagine, Lucas is faced with a difficult choice.

Nobody ever wants to become a raider, despite the legendary status that comes with the title. After all, there are only two possible endings for a raider. They die or they survive, but even survival has its consequences. The Tribal Leaders demand that one person in each family volunteer to be a raider (unless, of course, said family happened to be rich). Without raiders, Ascella's forest tribe would have perished long ago. Ascella was given two choices when the last of her family was killed by the Kinid . She was to marry into a family that already had someone in service or become a raider. That was eight years ago. Some said she became a raider to protect her family property. Some said it was because she did not wish to marry. They were all wrong. Years ago, her father and brother had both been forced into service when they spoke out against the Tribal Leaders. Ascella wanted vengeance, against the Tribal Leaders and the Kinid, so she sought to create a third ending-revolution. // an enemies to lover with a plot :) // weekly updates

"Everything we've been taught is a lie, a fallacy." Aella Farley has spent her whole life preparing for the Hunger Games, because in District 2 winning means bringing glory and honor to your district. This is how she was raised, and this is how she expected to live out her life. Aella volunteers, wanting to bring pride to her home like so many before her. But when she enters the arena she'll be forced to face the horrible truth, winning the Games is only a fallacy. One that is crumbling before her very eyes. Credit for the cover goes to hungergamefanatic02! I do not own the Hunger Games or any of the original characters/plots. I do own Aella and any of the others OCs, or any plot lines that weren't in the original books. All rights to the Hunger Games go to Suzanne Collins.
