When Helena finds a phone on the night train, she decides to text the first number in the list of contacts in order to figure out who it belongs to. ***** Helena Santos hasn't had the easiest life. At twenty-one, she's the legal guardian of her teenage sister, in the final year of her nursing degree, and working night shifts at her small-town's local bar. And things get a lot more complicated when she finds a phone on the train home and decides to text the first number in the list of contacts, in hopes of tracking down its owner. That contact? Adam Bauer; the charismatic, sweet, and refreshingly honest older brother of the person who lost their phone. As the two continue talking, they can't ignore the chemistry and growing feelings between them, but life is never that simple.

He smokes. He drinks. He deals with drugs. He uses women as toys. He beats up anyone who gets in his way--male or female. He breaks every rule and law. He is called Arsen Frasier. He is the original bad boy. And I failed to understand that reality; I failed to stay away from him. I failed to lock my heart from my childhood sweetheart.

When the quiet girl in Clayton Hugh's chemistry class comes knocking on his door at five in the morning barely covered up in her little pajamas, inattentive, and drooling like crazy, he has no choice but to take her inside. But once Lucy Walker wakes up inside a room she has never seen before wearing an over-sized t-shirt and gym shorts, you can imagine the pure panic setting in her. The subtle addition of Clayton entering the room shirtless doesn't help much either. After three years of fawning over him, leave it up to her sleepwalking to finally get Clayton Hugh to notice her.

One high school. Six seniors. Three couples who should never have gotten together. Take a journey through three separate stories of love, betrayal, heartbreak, and promise--all in the halls of one school and in one year. Love can be Forbidden, Restricted, and Lost, all in one fell swoop...or in three. From the author of the social media novel and Wattpad phenomenon "Dear Sydney" comes a new story with a new twist: three separate parts that all come together in the end. "Three's Company" redefines what a high school romance can be, and shows everything that can go wrong in the process of finding the one who's right for you. (And the summaries of each part are inside, of course.) First official chapter posted: February 1st, 2017 Highest Rank: #273 in Romance on 2/21/17
