"Samantha Banks! Get a hold of yourself, woman! I have a girlfriend!" It could have been just another school year for Samantha Banks. Her aim was simple: graduate top of her class, leave town and move to a good college, but at the same time, stay hidden under the radar. Yet, fate has set a different course for her. Her path crossed Aaron Lanter, their high school's most famous jock, but not in a good way. During a game of truth or dare, a drunken Sam kissed Aaron, which made Nicole, his girlfriend, bent on a mission to destroy Sam. After suffering enough, Sam decides it is time to fight back, and what greater opportunity than being designated as Aaron's tutor? Absorbed by her goal, she is now entangled in her own vengeance, but not before her friends made her realize that there is something more to this than an act of revenge- discovering things about herself and Aaron. What will they discover about themselves? How will they deal with the complexity of their situations? Will what started as a nightmare scenario end well for both of them? This is not your typical story of high school survival. This is a journey of freedom, revelations, and friendship. Grab a copy now!

Tris moved into Hemmington with her family a few days ago. Nervous about starting school again, she keeps calling her friend from New York, rambling about how nervous, yet excited she was about her new home and town. Tris wasn't really a shy girl. In fact, she was quite forward to everything and sometimes her bad habit of telling the truth made sure she fell in deep trouble. Her first day was pretty interesting. To be exact, for Tris it might have been a little stressful with Archer being in his little group. She liked the rest of the group, but Archer? Archer was a different story. Tris knew that she had to stay away from Archer, since he was always so rude and overconfident. As time flew by, Tris felt herself getting more attached to this small group of four. Was that even a good idea? As things start to finally fall back in peace, a huge storm casually walks into Tris' life and ends up leaving like a hurricane, damaging all mended pieces that she spent years on fixing. They called him, Will Trinton.

Princess Aren is determined to make the human who killed her mother and exiled her people to the bottom of the ocean pay. To do so, she must go to extremes of pain and heartache in her search for justice. Aren, however, is no sweet, happy mermaid. To kill is to ignite a fire of passion in her heart which only the savage letting of blood can satiate. She will go to any lengths to find the man responsible, including cutting off her own tail and sewing, in its place, a pair of human legs - legs she tore from one of the many humans she had murdered. With the unwilling help of the sea witch, Princess Aren must go ashore and hunt for her mother's killer. But, in doing so, the worlds above and below the ocean will clash in ways neither thought possible! And the Meek Shall Walk - a 'beautiful' and 'savage' retelling of a classic story!

The door wasn't there that morning. But now it was. And Steven couldn't help but step through. So why is he at the hotel, and why does that man look and sound so much like him? And why does the touch of another suddenly make him want to vomit? - This story originally appeared in the fantastic Sun Kissed Fantasy anthology, hosted by the genuinely wonderful @RebeccaSky! Check out the other amazing stories here: https://www.wattpad.com/289805056-sun-kissed-a-fantasy-anthology-the-door-by-shaun It's actually based in the One King West Hotel in Toronto, where I stayed when visiting Wattpad HQ and the walk Steven takes is the walk to the HQ offices. It was while having breakfast just as Steven does in this story that I came up with the idea.

Seventeen year-old Eliza Taylor's latest run-in with New York City Police lands her on a bus with a one way ticket to the small town of Blackwater. Unimpressed with being an indentured servant for her cranky and ridiculously ancient aunt, Eliza soon finds hope when she meets Dante, another of her aunt's employees, as well as Chase, the cute boy-next-door who works at his dad's hardware store. Unfortunately, Eliza's panache for getting into trouble rears its ugly head when she discovers her aunt's shop sells more than just postcards from 1988. Her aunt's "private showroom" houses each of the seven deadly sins: Pride, Envy, Wrath, Avarice, Lust, Gluttony, and Sloth. But stopping her evil aunt from damning the souls of unsuspecting teens has a price - and that price might very well be Eliza's eternal soul. Can Eliza survive her evil aunt, outwit the dark master she serves, and keep a few souls out of Hell, including her own? She's not so sure, but seeing as how she likes her soul in the upright and firmly out-of-hell position, she's gonna give it her best shot. Hopefully her best won't end up killing her and ruining her afterlife - God knows her normal life is hard enough! **Copyrighted Material: Bad Company Copyright © Wendy Nelson 2012 All Rights Reserved.

Paradise Louisiana is anything but. At first glance this tiny South Louisiana community seems typical of any Cajun town. Geaux Tigers and Who Dat banners adorn shop windows....But when the sun goes down, the ginormous waterbugs are not the only thing scurrying in the dark. Allisa had always been called a child prodigy, and skipped through more than a few grades, testing at the high school level in most subjects at twelve and earning a doctorate degree at age 18. Unlike most college graduates, Allisa cannot leave the tiny town in her job search. Because from the age of fifteen, she has suspected that she was brought to the town under false pretenses, to be a prisoner. Her intellect was needed to save the oldest inhabitants of Paradise. Residents that settled hundreds of years ago, and are still living among the population. The tattoo shop flashing it's neon sign on the corner does not use pure ink in it's designs. The bar next to it has had a house band, the same house band for centuries. The hospital houses a terminal ward of patients that were never supposed to die. While trapped in Paradise, she has formed the tightest of friendship bonds, and found true love. But will they all survive Paradise? ║▌█│║▌║│█║▌║▌ ║▌█│║▌║│█║▌║▌ Copyright © dramali 2012 Surviving Paradise by: Lisa Frost Copyright © 2012
