Holden Peters expects nothing exciting to happen during the summer before his final year of high school. But in a spontaneous act of bravery, he saves his pretty next door neighbour from drowning and is deemed as a local hero. Thanks to his newfound reputation, he's given a job as a lifeguard at the local pool. But the responsibility of saving lives quickly takes its toll on him and he realises that it's impossible to save everyone. Some things are just out of his hands.

The Harrison and Turner adventures laid out on a page. A collection of short stories of their lives together.

The Annandale Academy wasn't where Scarlett saw herself finishing her last year of school before university. One more year. It was only one more year. Yet the dreary countryside and cramped dorm rooms that smelt of faded cigarette smoke and wet stone were only fitting for the grey pall that had descended along with her previous expulsion. Once again she's surrounded by the silver spooned, but the children of the tight knit London elite are a far cry from those she was raised with. It's only fitting that there, amidst the hedonism and greed and blurring morals, that she meets Julian Chase. Iridescent with an edge of darkness to combat the burning brightness in equal parts, forever walking a thin line between self-destruction and cruelty. Scarlett sinks into their midst, woefully unprepared for the complicated lives she becomes entangled within. Every breath weighed, secrets and scandals whispered, and lies spilling as easily as they're made. And suddenly nothing is easy anymore.

In life there are things that are said, and then there are those that remain unsaid. For Keely Staub, her life mostly remained in the latter category. She kept the depth of her love of music hidden, even from her best friends. But when one song changes the world she lives in, shaking it to it's very core, everything she knows is about to change. Her future and a hidden past collide as she wades through a world she'd never dared to dream of. One that allows her half heart to maybe find an equally broken one in the unlikely source of Seth Ryan.

Exes aren't supposed to end up as best friends. Exes-turned-bff's should never have a one night stand. Dexter and Hadley do.

It's hard being your hot best friend's fake girlfriend, but someone's got to do it. Jacey's been faking it with Mike for a year now and it seems like every night is the same. The arrangement has worked pretty well for both friends, Jacey gets to party as hard as she wants and Mike get's to spend time with his actual boyfriend. But lately, things are getting kind of complicated. Jacey's starting to get lonely despite her fake boyfriend and suddenly her one night stands aren't enough. Except one person seems to be doing a pretty good job of making her feel better, but Jacey is sure as hell not going to admit it's Chase The Dork. But when his annoying smirks stop being annoying and it turns out that Chace might care more than he lets on, Jacey needs to face the facts. Living a life where appearances are everything is a tough thing to do, and now more than ever so is just faking it.

"If the world can't handle the truth, give them a spectacular lie." Bitch. That's what they called me at my old school. I disagree: I'm just brutally honest, that's all. Some people don't like honesty. Exhibit A: Matthew's family. None of them want to acknowledge that their Golden Boy is gay. Exhibit B: My Mother. I only told her the truth: that she was a crappy parent who never should've gotten knocked up in the first place. But she was so offended that she shipped me off to my fabulously wealthy father and his walking-billboard-for-plastic-surgery of a wife. So I devised a brilliant plan. My new friend Matthew was sick of hiding his sexuality. I was tired of obnoxious rich boys hitting on me. So why not pretend to be dating? He wouldn't have to answer uncomfortable questions anymore, and I'd enter my new school as the girlfriend of the star quarterback. It should be easy, right? Of course, I didn't plan on falling for Matthew's brother.

Scott Donahue is tired. Tired of failing his classes. Tired of his dad constantly comparing him to his overachieving older brother. Tired of having his heart broken by his beautiful, yet fickle, on again-off again girlfriend... But, most of all, he's tired of always making the wrong decision. With his parents threatening to cut him off if he doesn't pull up his grades, Scott struggles to balance the academic and social pressures of college as he begins what should have been his senior year. Between weekly appointments with the campus shrink, rowdy fraternity meetings, and a growing attraction for his red-haired kinesiology tutor, Scott knows that he needs to sort his life out -- the problem is that he has no idea what he wants to do with it.

"I was twenty one when Liam walked into my life. No, that’s wrong… he barged straight into me." Emily was just in her second year of college when her life took an unexpected turn. She'd never felt satisfied before, but with the books she buried herself in and dreams that she couldn't let herself lose, it was dawning worse than ever. She wanted more. More than she thought possible. But when she meets Liam, he might just offer her the one thing she thought she'd never have. Freedom.

Alyxis Dasher had it all. Great friends, perfect grades, and an almost unparalleled talent for dance. A strategic planner, her future is set: graduate top of her class from the Hilliard Ballet Academy, and join a prestigious ballet company that tours the world and would ultimately gain her international stardom. But when the unthinkable happens, destroying Alysix's innocence, self esteem, and trust in everything around her, things change. Her whole world caves, leaving her bitter and broken. Unable to move past it, Alyxis ends up on a downwards spiral and her dreams become simply that: useless dreams. Worried about her wellbeing, her parents send her to live with her Aunt Sadie, hoping the change from her hectic city life will do her good. But will a new scenery and break from constant high expectations be enough to bring back the old Alyxis? Or will the weight of what she has suffered prove too much and swallow the last fractured pieces of her soul, leaving nothing but emptiness and resentment behind? Axl Swanson is as cynical as they come thanks to years of disappointment from a consistently absent father and countless betrayals by a selfish mother. End result: a mental armour so thick he considers himself immune to people's empty promises, lies, and deceitful behaviour. Such a blatantly flippant attitude ensures that he has no real friends, something that Suits Axl just fine as it means nobody can get close enough to hurt him. Determined to remain untouchable, he does his best to ignore the New York transfer student Alyxis Dasher whose haunted eyes and skittish tendencies pique his curiosity. But when a unexpected encounter with Alyxis in the school gym leads Axl to believe she is facing some pretty big demons of her own, things change. He has a decision to make. Will he break his well honed anti social habits to get closer to the one person who could potentially end up hurting him the most? Or will seventeen years of injustices and the fear they've i
