Demi Lovato is a contestant on the X Factor, and on the surface her life seems amazing. Perfect house, perfect voice, perfect father. Except she's being abused, and no-one knows.

Eda is a flight-risk mercenary with a bad track record. Living on half-payments from uncompleted jobs, she hopes that her luck will change. And it does. When Eda meets Gandalf, he tells her that being reluctant to kill - valuing life - is not a weakness. And seeing Eda's true colors beneath her tough and careless facade, he hires her to protect his favorite Hobbit as Bilbo takes an unexpected holiday. But even that doesn't quite go according to plan... *cover art created by @elvenmystery.* **All credit goes to J.R.R. Tolkien for everything except the character(s) I created.** Rated PG-13 for action violence, intense battle sequences, and mild suggestive reference.

Ashley Martin has been through more grief than a person experiences in their entire life and carries baggage that no kid should ever entail. Tyler Miller is the school's scandalous bad boy who acts on impulse, blinded rage and will single-handedly destroy anybody who stands in his way. Then all of a sudden, they're thrown together and despite their destructive past, they're forced to overcome their differences. It's time for Ashley to stop running away from his death glares, blank stares and that spine-chilling scowl that reminds her just how little he cares. Driven by a whirlwind of secrets, a class assignment and midnight walks into the past, things should start working out. But then fate kicks in; hard-hitting and soul-crushing. It's a fight-or-flight situation, a reincarnation of her past, a chance for him to right the wrongs he did by her. A second chance is like giving someone an extra bullet for their gun after they missed you the first time round. So here's Tyler's gun. Here's Ashley's heart. And here's to their second chance, however hopeless it may seem.

"That was the first time I cut, the first time I held the blade in my hands with the intentions of self-harm; and it was the best decision I'd ever made. The worst? Joining the band." ~Niall Horan
