Reece Bremer goes through life with a scowl and cold personality. Jessica Andrews goes through life with a glowing smile and positive outlook. Reece looks at life with dull, judgmental eyes that make him hate the world and the people living in it. Jessica, well... She looks at life through a camera. Literally. They're polar opposites, and that's what sparks Reece's immediate hate for Jessica the moment they meet. All he sees is a girl with the best life, put in the category of those who get everything handed to them on a silver platter. But who says Jessica's life is like that? Just like a photograph, there's more to the story than what you see. Stumbling across one of Jessica's hidden portfolio might reveal that her happiness isn't all that true. Behind that smile and each picture she takes, holds a thousand words of a very big secret - one that Reece is determined to find out. And who knows? It just might change everything between them. cover by dysanic || 2015 watty's winner for talk of the town ||

"Do you want to talk? You know, about everything?" Evan asks. He's staring up at the star-covered sky as he holds our brown bag of French fries. I finish my sip of my vanilla milkshake despite not wanting to stop and follow his gaze. The stars twinkle against the black and wish I had brought my camera. Somehow I thought that bringing it on our maybe-maybe-not date wasn't appropriate. "I don't know," I smile, "everything seems like a lot of talking." Alabama Reed has fooled herself into thinking that this could work and she knows it. With an accident she's trying to downplay and a loss she can't seem to forget, things aren't looking good. So Bam's parents do the only thing they can think of; they take their daughter and drive her halfway across the country to sleepy Mermaid Bay to live in an empty cottage for the summer. Things quickly start looking up when Bam realizes the newspapers don't cover news that happens hours away, but as soon as she starts making friends and secrets of her past start unraveling, Bam finds out that you can't always run from your past - even if you actually run away.

Faye Caldwell has never been the same ever since her sister, Terra, killed herself seven years ago. She's haunted by her sister's memory, taunted by nightmares that mock the day her sister plunged to the ground. The fear of falling and ending up like Terra consumes her. Even the slighest falls make Faye scream, the terror taking over her body. Faye doesn't know how much more she can take. What she doesn't know is that those fears and dreams will drive her to do something that will change the way she looks at her life forever. Kole Frost lives a normal life. He has friends that he can (somewhat) count on, and a brother who is always there for him. He doesn't think that being dragged to Xia, a club that allowed minors, would do anything to him. He doesn't want to go, but he goes anyway--just to get his friend off his back. And when his best friend, Terence, gets drunk, he doesn't think anything of it. It's normal. Normal. But little does he know that that trip to Xia is about to change his life forever. The two worlds collide when Faye and Kole meet at the legendary Gate. The Gate, said to be protecting them from a horrible beast on the other side of its borders. The Gate which separates the two genders from each other. The Gate, which no one has ever seen before. That is, until now. Faye and Kole will learn that their "normal" worlds are not so normal after all. They'll learn that Cesve has secrets, ones that have been kept for a long, long time. And they take it upon themselves to find out just what those secrets are. There is one thing that must always be remembered: The Gate keeps them apart.
