Irony {noun} - a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often wryly amusing as a result. Khloe Matthews had never really considered how ironic her life was until she died. At parties, the head cheerleader would do something BIG to get revenge. If this meant spreading secrets and telling lies then she would do it. How ironic is it that Khloe used parties as a way of ending her peers' social lives and in turn someone used her own end of summer party to end her life? The sad thing is that Khloe didn't even really see it coming, but as she recounts her story, it becomes increasingly obvious that her so called 'friends' did. Now her friends will have to learn that just because the bitch is dead, it doesn't mean she's gone.

Pandora had always had a compulsion for lying but as her best friend, Viv chose to ignore it. Now Pandora is dead and Viv has been left with nothing but the question "why?" and a collection of sealed letters, written by Pandora before she died. When she opens the letter addressed to her, Viv is shocked to discover that her best friend had already suspected her death was imminent and so composed the collection of letters to all the people she considers important in her life - those who she lied to. In each letter, Pandora explains lies she told and the reasons for them and it is Viv's job to make sure they get to the right person. When Viv discovers that the letters could quite possibly be clues as to who murdered her best friend, she can't stop herself from opening a few. It's never been appropriate to open private mail and when Viv becomes a new target for whoever killed Pandora, it's a race against time to see if she can discover who the murderer is without becoming the next victim. The one problem with the letters is how does Viv know if what was said in the letters is actually true or not? Is it ever safe to believe a compulsive liar? beautiful cover is by the very talented @mellliflous All Rights Reserved Copyright © longtimegone Steal my work-face my wrath.

At sixteen, Journey Durant hasn't yet experienced her first anything. No first boyfriend. No first date. No first kiss. But, that's all about to change. Two boys at West Emerson High are vying for her attention: the MVP quarterback and the school's reigning bad boy. David Britton is the sensible choice. He's attractive, responsible, and every mother's dream-including hers. But David and Journey are from two different social universes where David is the sun in his, and Journey is a moon rock in hers. He's the most popular guy in school, and Journey is just background noise. She has a hard enough time accepting that he truly wants to be her friend, much less anything more. And then there's Steven Drake. Steven has dominated Journey's fantasy life for as long as she can remember. He has a short list of things he cares about and school, the future, and what anyone thinks of him aren't on it. Journey finds the element of rebellion he emanates to be intoxicating. But, as much as Steven excites her, she knows there's trouble down that road. So, who will be her first? Mr. Most Likely to Succeed or Mr. Most Likely to Go to Jail? ***To Be Her First is the prequel to The Bed She Made.
