Caden Miller. Hot, cynical, and notoriously labelled the bad boy of Crestmont High. Attention-seekers flirt with him. Idiots fight with him. The ones who know what's good for them, stay away from him. If you fight him, you know you'll lose soon. Short-tempered, mysterious, and those oh-so-hot looks. All of that was enough for a person to fall head over heels for him. If only he cared to give a shit about them. Not when he was also the youngest gang leader in New York City, with just one mission in mind: stop his equally cynical brother from ruining his life more than he already had. Skylar Anderson. Not a nerd. Or a cheerleader. All she cares about is her workaholic (and maybe even a little dysfunctional) parents, her adorable cat and her not-so adorable best friend, and her sleep. Quite literally. Living a normal and carefree life, trying her best not to flunk Physics, there wasn't anything more that she wanted. Until she receives a letter in her mailbox... ...and that normal, carefree life goes right above the clouds. . . .

I shook my head at him. This is his game. But that doesn't mean I can't master it. I gave him a seductive smile. "Are you scared that I might just beat you at your own game?" Jace let out a deep chuckle that sent tingles down my back. "Sweetheart, I'm here to remind you of one little thing." He pushed off the island. "And what's that?" I asked with a raised eyebrow cautious of his movement. Still seated on the counter, he walked between my legs. His hands grabbed my waist and pulled me closer to him. A soft gasp left my lips from his sudden movements. Not even once did he break eye contact. I felt my throat run dry from the intense look. "That even in this little game, you belong to me." **** Senior year for Leah Tate came around before she knew it and she couldn't wait to get started with her best friend, Kayla Greyson.

Four years ago, Evelyn Wright's perfect life as a debutante in London was ripped away from her, and her family moved to the countryside. Since then, she has adjusted to the simple life, but one letter is about to send her to the city and back into the life of a socialite, forced to suffer through balls, matchmaking, scheming mothers and worst of all, despicable rakes. Evelyn wants nothing to do with this life, eager to return home, until a ​fateful decision throws her into the path of one of societies most daring rakes, Nathanial Blackmore, the Duke of Winchester. He is arrogant, rich and entitled, everything she despises about men, but as the unlikely pair begin to work together to avoid the hangman's noose, she discovers that there is a lot more to him than sinful smiles and dangerous promises. Can they escape the death sentence that hangs above them? Or is Evelyn more in danger of losing her heart, than her head?

"It hurts too much to care, it hurts too much to feel, to be human" I don't have the courage to look at him "Will you stay if I don't ? Will you not leave me?" The rain wipes away my tears, if only it could wash away this feeling too "I can't fix this, I can't pick up the broken pieces, I can't be the person you knew" His eyes held no emotion Maybe that was the sign I had been waiting for, maybe we were a complicated lie I was begging to let go of, maybe we never meant anything. ~~~~~~~~~~~ Elizabeth Rose, a name no one remembers and a face not all recognize. It would be hard to catch a glimpse of her without a book in one hand and a coffee in another. She'd been living life under the shelter of her favorite romance novels and a few friends whom she loved more than family. She wasn't exactly the scandalous type but she'd wish for change from time to time thinking that there might just be more to life than daydreaming about fictional characters, even though the reality of the world scares her too much. Elizabeth's organized and carefully planned summer is suddenly put at risk when her mother decides that she needs a break from their family, when her dad decides to move across the globe, when her friends seem to be doing great without her. The uptight Elizabeth Rose can feel the control slipping away when her life is turned upside down and getting engaged with the town's most reckless badass most certainly won't be of any help. !WARNING! The adorable heart wrenching small town romance may raise your expectations unrealistically high! -@Sejal91

Far away from parties that she secretly wanted to attend, afraid of the kids she really wanted to be friends with, all these years Caashvi had been living under the safety blanket of being invisible but her heart secretly begged for freedom. Freedom for breaking the rules that society had set for her, freedom for going places she'd never been, freedom for falling in love with the person she'd once forbidden herself to think about. Caashvi will have to choose between the two paths that await her, either she will let her crazy heart decide or she'll live with the hopes of the fictional, brooding, grey characters she reads about to come to life !WARNING! The first 5-6 chapters may be cringe or full of errors

Jasper Harrington doesn't enjoy attending social occasions especially when opinionated women think that it is acceptable to criticise him, but there is something about Eliza that he can't quite bear to part with.

"Seth?" He walked to the door and paused. "Yeah?" He murmured, hand poised on the knob. "Would you...Could you stay?" I asked unsure. He turned to me and a small smile formed on his lips as he walked back over to my bed. "I thought you'd never ask" He grinned laying down so our shoulders touched. And it was at this point, as we lay down, that I realized that I needed him. I needed this brash, obnoxious idiot with me because I, finally, felt complete. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Seth Fuller and Trishelle Mcguiness couldn't be anymore opposite.
