Reece Bremer goes through life with a scowl and cold personality. Jessica Andrews goes through life with a glowing smile and positive outlook. Reece looks at life with dull, judgmental eyes that make him hate the world and the people living in it. Jessica, well... She looks at life through a camera. Literally. They're polar opposites, and that's what sparks Reece's immediate hate for Jessica the moment they meet. All he sees is a girl with the best life, put in the category of those who get everything handed to them on a silver platter. But who says Jessica's life is like that? Just like a photograph, there's more to the story than what you see. Stumbling across one of Jessica's hidden portfolio might reveal that her happiness isn't all that true. Behind that smile and each picture she takes, holds a thousand words of a very big secret - one that Reece is determined to find out. And who knows? It just might change everything between them. cover by dysanic || 2015 watty's winner for talk of the town ||

Secrets. Those dirty little things that we all have and hide. Those are the things that we conceal within ourselves, hiding who we are and what we have gone through. No one ever expected Celeste to be a fighter. Nearly a year ago she was just the life of the party, a girl who could be anyone's friend. Everything changed when she was kidnapped. That week of captivity left her damaged beyond repair, or so she thought. Some people may not believe that there is hope for the old Celeste, yet that doesn't matter for some of those that care deeply about her. With her kidnapper still lurking in the shadows, Celeste feels that the only way to protect those that she cares for is to push them away from her. She fights for the fear that follows her and the hope of self defense. She fights for her family and the lost friends that she's nearly forgotten. She fights for her future and the protection of her secrets. Those secrets create who we are and who we are destined to become. They shape us. We are who we are only with them. This creates who Celeste is now, a mix of pain, strength, and hope. Some people believe that this makes her the Pretty Little Fighter Girl that she is today. Most people would have never expected this of her... Would you?
