Gwen Bradbury has seen the end. Gwen Bradbury has learned fighting again. ****** Gwen Bradbury's life is torture to her. She is floating above everyone else. Her existence is like a void, eating her up from the inside, little by little every day. Gwen wants freedom. She wants to escape. But she is not one to give up. The darkness and demons can't do anything to her, not again. She will fight till she can't take it anymore. Oliver Carlson isn't your typical boy next door. He isn't the popular bad boy with a dark past you will find in every book. Oliver is not cocky, not famous, not one with eight pack abs. He is quiet, silent, hiding in shadows, away from everyone else, on his own. He has learned to keep to himself, build his suits of armors up, and shut everyone out. Nobody really knows him. He doesn't care. What hurts is that when his popular brother Owen Carlson gets everything he wants, leaving Oliver nothing. So when Gwen Bradbury unintentionally unexpectedly crashes into Oliver Carlson's life, she tries to convince him that life is beautiful with her broad smile and crazy endeavors. Oliver does quite the opposite by shutting her out on the outside but maybe secretly slowly letting her own a piece of his heart. But what happens when both Oliver and Gwen are faced with disasters that make their second skin fall apart in front of their eyes abandoning only the truth? Completed. @girlofthetrees is the editor of this book.

"The moon's really beautiful, if you think about it," I blurted. "Yeah?" he asked, mild amusement and curiosity mingling in his voice. "Yeah," I confirmed. "It's just- there's something about the moon that's ethereal. I don't really know how to describe it, but it's a constant in life. You can't always see it, but you have to trust that it's out there somewhere. And when you can see it, it's all bright and shiny and overcomes the darkness." I paused, searching for the right words. "I don't know. I guess it's a reminder that there are good things out there, even if you can't see them... And it's cool to think that someone hundreds of miles away is staring at the exact same moon as you. It makes me feel not so alone in life." Turning my head, I saw him staring at me intently with a thoughtful look on his face. "Too deep for a Friday night?" I laughed nervously, feeling my face grow hot. And this was precisely why I didn't go to parties. He shook his head and seemed to snap out of his daze. "It was deep in a good way." *** SHE was quiet & left out.

"Look at that. Just like Cinderella. Just hope our girl's smart enough not to go running off when the clock strikes." • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • What would you do when you find yourself falling for the wrong Prince Charming? Josephina Morales can tell you exactly what she'll be doing a week from now. Coming from a family like hers, she can't help wanting to control everything around her, even though she's such a klutz. She's had only one friend for the past three years, wears the same look almost always, and has even liked the same guy for years. Everything is simple and predictable for her, including her not-so-stellar family. Enter Caleb Flynn into the equation and everything changes completely. She discovers that underneath the tough exterior he shows the whole world, Caleb is someone she could easily fall for. He's this handsome, mysterious, smart and carefree guy who can set her heart racing with just one look-her perfect Prince Charming-even though he has his own fair share of problems. However, it seems like he's just not for her. It's a little confusing falling for your crush's best friend, but then, this isn't your average Cinderella story. Throw in a high school ball, deep conversations in the dark, a couple of overly interested girls, one big twist and an explosive chemistry, and you can't still expect to call this your average Cinderella story. No, not with characters like Josi and Caleb. This is what you call a modern day Cinderella story. • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • "Can I be honest? You two are so meant for each other, it seems it'll turn out to be such a fairytale... Just like Cinderella!"

"I-I can't do this anymore!" I said with a sigh, tilting my chin up to meet his silver eyes. "I can't keep playing these childish games with you!" "Then let's put the games to the end." He backed me up against the wall and the dim light of the room outlined all his sharp featured, reminding me of how he would always help me find the light when the darkness completely engulfed me. "You wanna play Tag? I'm it. I am it for you." Xander Kings never believed he would discover refuge in the emerald eyes of Aurora White. And she never anticipated that her shattered world could be mended. The stars, in her world, began to twinkle in those silver eyes of his. And like how a child learns the constellations, he memorized all of her. Cover: @ourforevers (me) Highest Rank- #11 in Romance & #13 on Newadult Hotlist Completed

Started in 2018 Hardcopy available on NotionPress and Amazon *Rank* 1 * in #boynextdoor *Rank* 1 * in #badboylovestory When shy yet sarcastic Daniella Jones met cocky playboy Hunter Donnavan. She is nothing but, horrified when she learnt that the guy she dreaded the most is now her next door neighbor. Hunter on the other hand thinks completely different and is amused by every movement our little Danny made. The moment their eyes met, sparks flew all over the place but soon they both realized what they truly desired. One side was a nerdy girl who just wants to be left alone and on the other is an outgoing green-eyed hunk that somehow become Daniella's ride or die. He changed her for the better and she brought back the old Hunter who was locked away somewhere trying to fight his demons. Drama, love, friendship and lots of sarcasm. Warning~ Extremely cheeky, Romantic and Sarcastic. Strong words are used on a minimal in between chapters. Cute kisses and makeout sessions will come at some point too. ********************** And now a part of the story- I mean this guy is fudging hot. Perfectly tanned. Raven black hair. Beautiful twinkling green eyes. I have already said so much about his abs and I really hate to say this but that smirk really suits his lips. And he has slept with every girl in the school. Yup. Whushsh. Everything I just said flew right out the window. *********************** And another small part if you are still not convinced to read- I am going to shit my pan- Hunter slowly grabbed my face with both of his hands and kissed my lips softly. And then kissed me again, just seconds longer then before. And then again and sucked my bottom lip really slowly and softly.
