Going through an attic is like a treasure hunt, especially when you're going through someone else's. Like Forrest Gump said, you never know what you're gonna get. Leah Coombes thought she knew exactly what she was in for when she started to sort through her mother's attic, but what she didn't expect to find was an old box filled with letters addressed to a missing girl called Hope. With the help of the letters and added research, Leah discovers that Hope disappeared during a stay at Sunnyside Recuperation Camp for young mental disorder sufferers, but through the eyes of Myka, Hope's sister, she witnesses a new found love, a break in and a type of desperation she didn't realise existed. Armed with Myka's letter, Leah vows to find out exactly what happened to Hope during that month at Sunnyside, but with the camp and other witnesses proving impossible, can the truth really be uncovered?

I've never been popular. I've done been beautiful or outgoing. I''ve always stayed under the radar, especially at school. But I was okay with that. I mean, large groups attract drama, right? Then I started getting bullied. I got called fat ugly, and worthless. Along with many other horrible names. They knew what they were doing to me, how they were making me feel. I guess that's exactly why they continued to do it. It got so, so bad, to the point that I couldn't go on. So I attempted suicide. I thought the pain would end then, but I was wrong. After waking up in a white corridor with strange voices, I had to decide whether I wanted to die or live. If I chose to die, I'd be left in this corridor with no one to talk to. The loneliness would eventually drive me insane. But if I chose to live.....well, let's just say I'd be shown all the fears I didn't know I held. All the fears I'd pushed away had now resurfaced, and I had to face them. My name is Ivy, and this is what bullying has done to me. #### Hello there! I just want to let you all know that by writing this story, this does not mean that I support Anorexia, cutting or anything of that sort. I am writing this story to help raise awareness of what bullying can lead to, because I feel this is a very important matter that everyone needs to stop and have a think about. If you are one of those people who find bullying fun, entertaining or even if it makes you feel better about yourself......STOP. It is not the right thing to do, and one day it will come back and bite you in the ass! I'm sorry that people had to read this but I just felt like I needed to say that. Please read my book, and if you understand the point I'm trying to get across by writing this, please vote, comment and follow so I know who you are. Also, if you feel the need to talk to someone because you are sad, depressed or even just feeling down, please PM me. Anyway I think that's all I needed to say, so goodbye :) COVER MADE BY @covermakerM

~complete~ Charlotte is as sweet as a strawberry. She's the kind of person who will drop everything just to help you, just to put a smile on your face. She's as sweet as the sugar that constantly runs through her bloodstream, and as excitable as the rush that comes with it. And then there's Benjamin, who's as sour as a lemon. The last thing on this Godforsaken planet he wants to do is acquaint himself with her. While Charlotte is kind and caring, he's rude and vulgar, while she's friendly and innocent, he's crass and mean. So how in the hell is that going to turn out?

Katelyn Valentine isn't a stereotypical high school girl. She isn't the type of girl who would crush over boy bands or dream about her wedding. She is, however, the type of girl who claims that all celebrities are overrated. Unlike her best friend Delaney, who is obsessed over hot teen celebrities, Kate simply enjoys the life without drama. Alex Monreaux is the hot new face of Hollywood. Everywhere he goes, there are cameras, intrusive paparazzi and persistent screaming fans. So what brings this young teen celebrity to a small town? Kate soon finds herself to be stuck, stuck living with famous teen celebrity Alex (who she had no idea existed until he came knocking on her front door). Left without a choice, she is now forced to sacrifice her ordinary lifestyle and try to make the best out of the rest of her high school life, that is, if Alex could make that possible. Who would've thought that living with a celebrity could be so annoying? © 2010-2011 imperfectdreamer. All rights reserved. | Thank you for reading!

"Kiss me." He orders, slamming my locker shut. "Is she coming?" I ask, turning my head to look behind me, but he grabs my face and makes me look up at him. "Yes, now kiss me." I do as told, getting on my tippy toes as I lean up to kiss him. He kisses me back slowly, before he pins me against the lockers and deepens the kiss. My eyes widen and I try to push him away. This isn't part of the deal. He pulls away, a full on smirk plastered on his face. "I lied." He confesses, turning around. "She wasn't coming." Then, he walks away.
