Emerson knows high school can be messy, but nothing could prepare her for Oliver Remmer's return. Dangerous, mysterious, and rumored to be a psychopath, he's the kind of boy everyone fears... and everyone watches. Yet Emerson isn't everyone. She sees the layers beneath his intense exterior-the boy shaped by a troubled past, moments of tenderness hidden under bursts of anger, and a vulnerability most people would never notice. Between the gossip, the chaos, and the adrenaline-charged tension, Emerson can't help but be drawn in. Oliver is unpredictable, and being near him is thrilling-and maybe a little bit reckless. Standing her ground almost feels like a dare. But some loves are worth the risk. Some loves are easy. Back Cover Copy: "Write down one word that describes you." Oliver didn't hesitate. Psychopath. Everyone expects me to run. To stay away. To be careful. But I didn't. Because there's something behind the intensity, the walls, the mystery. Something only I get to see. Because sometimes the thrill of the unknown is exactly what your heart has been waiting for. Set in North Carolina, Open is a teen romance about taking risks, discovering who someone really is, and finding that love can feel mysterious, dangerous... and irresistible. C O V E R B Y @ZiaDavis

"Do you really want to be just my friend?"

[ARCHIVED MARCH 2017] The second book in the Freaks trilogy. Loners. They're at my school, your school, and they probably went to your parents school as well. In talking about those weird kids that NEVER talk. The teachers just stopped calling their name at this point. They wear all black, they mute the world with they're demonic screaming music about black veiled brides with pierced veils. They have tattoos. Multiple piercings. You have no idea how because they're all still attending high school. No one questions them. Not even the administrators. They look a lot like freaks but they're worst than freaks because at least freaks talk. These ones...they don't even group up with each other. They're what we call-loners.

" Darling raise your head" The husky voice said to me as I continued to look at my feet, in which at the moment they seemed to be very interesting. " Darling I don't have all day." The husky voice continued. I didn't even need to lift my head to know who it was. He yanked my head upward with his hand on my chin. Trying to make me look in his eyes. I kept mine shut. He grunted... I could feel the aura of power around him as I continued to disobey. " Darling I will not hesitate to kill you" He began speaking slow trying to steady his anger " Then why haven't you killed me yet?" I asked, and made the worst decision I've ever made... I opened my eyes. At that moment only one word was going through my head, Mate. ******* Scarlett Smith is an average 19 year old were-wolf.
