Nathanial Miles and Adelaide Winston had been best friends since they were ten years old. They may have been as different as chalk and cheese but they were always there for each other. Addy's life was going as well as could be expected of any twenty five year old. She had a fine job and a new apartment with her boyfriend of going on a year, Stanford. The most important thing in her life though was still Nate. Stanford often complained that she spent more time with Nate than him but Addy couldn't help it. Nate had seen her through a lot of her life, whether good or bad. He was her rock, the one person she could always depend on. So when Addy finds out that Stanford has been sleeping with one of her co-workers, she of course turns to Nate. The one person she knew she could trust more than anything. Her wonderful best friend offers her everything from the keys to his front door to a new job. Between ex's trying to take from them, they stand together as always. She knew that her heart had been with her best friend for many, many years. All she could wonder was if Nate felt the same for her.

He saw her that day, the first day she started working for his sick aunt. She was bubbly, vivacious, slightly crazy and stunningly beautiful. She made his aunt laugh and smile, like she hadn't done in years. She saw him that day too. She smiled and waved at him as though pleased to see him. He did nothing. He knew then that she was the innocent destined to lose her life to give him his immortality. The following day he had the windows to his sanctuary tinted so she couldn't see in. He could see out though. For the next six months before his aunt died, he watched her every day. At the funeral he couldn't take his eyes off her sombre figure. At the reading of the will, he scowled outwardly that she was given the gatehouse. Inwardly he smiled the brightest smile knowing she would have to work for him to actually attain it. She had intrigued him from that first smile, he wanted to know this enigma of a woman. Even though he would take her life, he wanted to know her. Honey Combes was there for Rosie Jackson's funeral. She saw Aiden Jackson watching her and could only wonder why. To her he had become known only as the mystery man. The man that never smiled, spent every moment of his life cooped up in a little room but was loved dearly by his now dead aunt. Finding out Rosie had left her a house had astonished Honey. She wasn't too sure about the terms though. She knew she had to accept that she was pretty broke. She also didn't want to keep living with her parents and three younger sisters. It was only six months she had to work for him. Maybe she would uncover the hidden layers of him that had always fascinated her or it could be the worst six months of her life. Little did she know her life was about to be extinguished by the one man that fascinated her. To extend his own life would he take hers?

When Kayla McCrae was forced into a dare by her friends, she had no idea what she was in store for. They dragged her into the kissing booth and that was when her calm life turned crazy. Isaac Thornton had thought it would be great fun to man the kissing booth. Of all the girls lined up that day, the only one that had him coming back for more was a surprise. She was a nerdy girl in a grey cardigan. She seemed frumpy and boring against the girls he normally dated. The difference was that he could have kissed her forever; the spark between them was that intense. She disappeared into the school world and he couldn't find her. He couldn't believe how hard he was chasing after this girl that nobody but his sister knew. He was normally the one that girls chased after, with his relationships lucky to last a week. Now this girl had him caught in her net but couldn't be found. He continued to search though. What would to do with her when he finally found her?

Lucy is a normal girl, living in a small country town, who never figured that the guy she met was famous. Yes, she broke into his room to sit quietly, and read but she never knew that the perfect guy, one Ash Martin that she met that night could change her life forever. The only problem is he's keeping his big secret to himself. When she does find out all she can wonder is will their relationship survive his fame? With his introduction into her life, it brings back someone that Lucy had never hoped to see again. Maybe his fame wasn't the only problem in their burgeoning relationship.

He's gone and I've been left with nothing. I don't know when or if he will ever return. He told me to write this crazy, unbelievable tale of love down. It hurts to write it. It kills something inside of me. This is the story of our love. This is how I discovered my next door neighbour was not at all what he seemed. This is how I fell in love with a life sucking alien that just wanted to return home. You may scoff at me or disbelieve my tale, that I understand. All I want you to see is our love.

My name is Matilda and I gave up the most important thing in my existence. I told him we should see other people. I hated it but I felt like I was holding him back. So I set my future life bond Xander free. Within a week he had dated other girls, by the end of a month he barely looked at me and by the time six months had rolled around he had moved away. I can no longer speak and I refuse to see anyone but my family. My twin brother Kale is beyond furious and I know my parents are worried. But the simple truth is he is gone and he took my very essence with him. I am nothing but a shell. I am nothing without Xander, he was my life.

The day Aurora Matthews met Trey Arlington, just happened to be the day when she lost her summer job. She began to wonder why he always seemed to be around when she needed cheering up, especially when things were getting her down. She had never received much attention from boys at her school, known mostly as Nerd Bird had scared most of them off, so his friendly smile surprised her. As the summer weeks passed, a friendship bloomed between them that slowly changed into something deeper. Aurora felt a special bond form between them, which she hoped would continue even when school began again. The long days of summer ended with Trey destined to attend his private school, while Aurora stayed behind in her idyllic beach setting. When the return of school also heralds her elder sister's return, Aurora feels stunned. It seemed that her senior high school year might prove more challenging than she had ever thought possible, especially when a guy looking a lot like Trey appeared. Life it seemed was full of complications beyond her normal homework and study. She could only wonder if she was ready for the change.

All she wanted was a kitten to keep her company on her new farm, but new to town Aria Williams was finding that difficult to achieve. Having to escape her life, where her best friend ran off with her boyfriend, she broke ties with her successful band and left her life of fame behind her. Scarred and battered Flynn Logan saw trouble on the horizon at Aria's arrival. As one of the veterinarians of their small community, he would never simply sell his kittens. Aria had to earn one. His years in a war zone had taken a rough toll and left him with little trust for human society. In his world, his kittens would have the choice of who they wanted to live with and he stuck by those rules, until her. After a tumultuous beginning, Aria begins to see something in him that rarely existed in her fame filled world. She saw a uniqueness behind his surly expression, and although she didn't want it, she found herself drawn to him. When her secret is discovered, she can only wonder if their budding relationship can survive the news. Perhaps Flynn would be more resilient than she thought. He could lead her to greater heights than she had ever known, only time would tell.
