Being the sister of a world famous vlogger gets hard, but every year Lace Carter gets to escape it all at the Harleen Art Camp. This place is her safe haven, the one place where she can truly escape in her art. There's only one problem- Eli Evans; the most annoying boy to have ever walked on the face of the earth.

Too bad Harleen has decided to have partners this year, and just guess who hers turns out to be.

Having a famous rockstar as your childhood best friend isn't all that great. Carson should know since hers just so happens to be the handsome yet arrogant lead singer of the band, Ever After, named Vincent Gray and if anything, they can't stand each other. When Vincent Gray is forced to go back to his old life in Toronto after his parents has had enough with his diva-like attitude, they are hoping that he gets a reality check. Though, Vincent could care less about his attitude-- all he cares about is starting that world tour of his. Carson, on the other hand , a once aspiring musician, has her goals set on University. When she gets accepted but fails to gain a scholarship, she fears that she'll live the rest of her life working at the local diner. However, Vincent makes an offer Carson knows she cannot refuse: if Carson, the girl everybody seems to love, pretends to be Vincent's girlfriend for two months, enough for everybody to believe that he has changed, Vincent will then pay for Carson's tuition for University. Simple, right? They'll both get what they want: Vincent gets his world tour and Carson gets to go to University. Well, sometimes our plans don't go according to plan, and sometimes love can happen to two unlikely people during the unlikeliest time. A story about falling in love... Music.... And going after your dreams. Copyright © 2012 ~ Cover by VidishaJain

“Love’s like a bullet. It’s fast. It’s furious. Sometimes you can’t see it coming. You can run from it. But you can’t dodge it. Unless someone stands in your way…” Growing up, Callie Tollson had always admired her older brother, Clay, for being exactly who he wanted to be…despite the consequences he faced doing so. With their roles reversed, Callie had always been the one to stand up for Clay when he was in harm’s way. She always thought this was enough. She thought she was able to protect him. That is until he turned the tables and unleashed harm back on those who had done it to him. She couldn’t understand why, being the one who stood up for him the most, she was the one he picked as the receiver for the final bullet in his gun. Now she’s the most feared girl in school with a haunting family tie to keep her stuck in the halls of Riverton High. As she tries to survive the rest of her junior year as the sister of the boy who brought a gun to school, she soon realizes she owes nothing to the boy who turned on her and everything to the boy who saved her life.

He's a would-be college student stacking books in the local library. She's a high school senior nearing graduation. He leads a life of organized chaos and she's living by the book. He's free but all she can see are consequences. You can't control who you fall in love with. [To be published end of summer 2025. Stay tuned for details.]
