It was supposed to be a mid-year getaway for influential teenagers or children of rich parents from all parts of Nigeria. It was that annual summer camp which everyone above the age of sixteen looked forward to attending every year since its incorporation. It was Hillsview Summer Camp. ♡︎♡︎♡︎ The fourth annual Hillsview summer camp brings about things unexpected in all eight of the teenagers' lives. From the arrival of an intercontinental teenage star, to a near suicide, an addiction, and possibly an obsession, their stay is nothing like they imagined. Soon enough, they realize the meaning behind the popular saying, "Don't judge a book by its cover". Safe to say, none of them can predict the outcome of sitting together on that table the first night of camp. Surely, it is a night to remember. "Even the seemingly perfect people have that one thing which traps them" "Who would've known that all it took was fourteen days?" Do not plagiarise. I do not own the images used in this book.

He was the only thing that made sense, the closest thing she had left to her sanity. And then, in the blink of an eye, tables were spun and her whole world came crashing down, right before her eyes. 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐫𝐚 𝐍𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐚 𝐌𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐤, austere and nearly emotionless. Withdrawn from her old school, she saw that as an opportunity to shy away from her demons, a chance to forge another path, leaving behind the bitter memories she desperately wanted an escape from. Battling with depression, struggling with the aftermath of a messy breakup and changing schools didn't come easy for Kira. But then, trouble stepping in, in the form of the grey-eyed boy that was the polar opposite of everything she stood for was the least of her expectations. 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐟𝐚𝐧 𝐁𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐲𝐨 𝐎𝐥𝐮𝐲𝐢𝐝𝐞, your daily dose of sunshine with a golden smile, coupled with a heart of gold. He had trained himself to be prepared for whatever it is that life threw in his way, but he certainly didn't expect to cross paths with the Snow Queen he couldn't stay away from, after one encounter. She piqued his curiosity. He irks her. A girl who has worn a mask all her life, torn between who she was and what she had become and a guy who waltzed into her life in the form of redemption, with just one aim in mind. To tear down her walls. Will this blossom into something more intense? With this burning attraction that tossed them into an abyss of deceits, betrayals, broken friendships and the most unlikely alliances. One word. 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐎𝐒!

After a long anticipated party hosted by one of the most popular boys in school, a rumour goes round the entire school and gets the names of the two least expected classmates, in the mouths of the entire population of Castron High. One word: Madness. 𝑫𝒂𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒖𝒄𝒉𝒊 𝑶𝒓𝒋𝒊 - a major 'outcast', a girl who barely escaped being at the full disadvantaged end of the Social hierarchy, because she was saved, hidden, and protected under the wings of one of the most highly placed cliques in her set - realises that as a result of this ridiculous and unexpected rumour, she may just be about to bite more than she can chew. Unspeakable dares are passed on. Sealed pledges are made, the worst of pairs are forced to match-make, secrets are revealed, the mystery behind the strangest, most unusual people are discovered, and the most dangerous games are played when the notorious gang boys/hoodlums, known for terrorising the school come into the whole story, thirsty for blood. Most alarming yet, an outcast who has always been the centre of attention for the wrong reasons and a damaged playboy with narcissistic traits dare to fall in love in a world that forbids them to. In the end, all that's left to realise it that every teenager is one way broken and needs saving. ❦︎ In a world where home is equivalent to Hell, and Highschool is a society, reeking of vanity, where social hierarchy is the order of the day, and the madness to maintain status quo is a much bigger deal than it should be, anyone is bound to lose their goddamn mind. Two broken teenagers, living the same unbearable reality, and struggling to know who they are, find solace, and a means of escape, with each other. But is it really worth it?

~ SEQUEL TO TOO MANY BROKEN THINGS ~ The beginning of the new school term is far from anticipated when a number of final year students are planning to resume with sharp bladed knives and bullet filled rifles hidden cautiously in their back pockets. Figuratively speaking, of course. When the New Year Resumption opens with a suffocating air of terror and tension latched around the throats of some students of Castron High, they are left to walk around eggshells with each other, hoping that they will be able to make it through the year in one piece. However, fate has other plans for them as these teenagers are prone to inevitably getting their hands dirty. While friendships are still on the line, Dabeluchi Orji resumes the year with her new 'aura' being a slap to people's faces and the events of her life scripted according to the version she prefers in her head. Marcus Acha is adjusting to his new reputation in Castron High, alongside a barrage of consequences from Home, but he is not done messing his live up over his Love. He dives into playing with fire and putting his life on the line as he goes out on a premeditated quest against of the most dangerous men in the country. After all, all is fair in the game of Love, and soon, dirtier tricks are played, nastier controversies are arising, death threats are following, and Marcus - along with the Igbo Sisters - are setting themselves up for deadly brutal consequences. More than they could have ever bargained for. In a world where Home is Hell, friends are now foes, Love is a gamble, the line between reality and illusions are blurred, and High School is a like a cult, a messed up society of twisted hierarchy and a toxic pecking order, twelve teenagers are falling apart. Only a Monster can break a Monster. But who can fix one?

❝He built himself the perfect barricade, and she brought with her, the perfect demolition tool❞ Introverted, certified loner sᴏᴍᴀᴅɪɴᴀ ɪʙɪᴀᴍ, loves his space, minds his business and hates the human race (okay, that's a bit far-fetched). He finds solace in getting untainted canvases bend to the will of the colorful strokes of his paint brushes or pencils and the four walls of his room. Fed up with the slow paced life she's living, never shy and free-spirited fireball, ᴄʜɪᴅɪɴᴍᴀ 'ᴅɪᴅɪ' ᴀᴊᴀʟᴀ is ready to get her hands on adventurous opportunities. Even if an opportunity comes in form of an 18y/o lone wolf with patience as thin as the thread binding her hair. Except, Soma would be found dead indulging her. However, Didi can be anything she sets her mind to be. And this time, she is trouble, carved out in capital letters. Or perhaps, she might be the one to show him that there is more to life beyond the four walls of his room and paint brushes.
