[This story is free as of February 10, 2021] "Move over A Walk to Remember, and make way for one of the most heartwarming stories this side of Wattpad. It's so cute, I could cry (again)." - Grace @ HQ After tragedy strikes, Nolan loses all faith and never expects to love, let alone smile again until Nora-perky and persistent-walks into his life. ***** 15-year-old Nolan Haynes has everything. A loving family, a promising future as a filmmaker, and a pretty cool group of friends. That is until tragedy strikes and he's forced to move towns. Nolan vows never to let anyone in ever again-they always leave. But on a summer day two years later, when the super upbeat, Nora walks to his lunch table-Nolan has to try a bit harder to keep a smile off his face. Little does he know that Nora is fighting a battle of her own, one that no one could even imagine. And as the two get closer, they not only find solace in each other but in God. When Nolan is faced with a situation in which he has to break Nora's trust to protect her, can their budding relationship still stand and will God show up in all of this?

NOTICE: Before the Morning is currently undergoing revisions! A sensitivity reader (someone who goes through your manuscript and assesses representations in your work) identified a number of issues surrounding the Filipino representation in BTM. I'm rewriting with the goal of creating a more authentic and respectful story. I'm sorry for the pain I caused by failing to include accurate Filipino culture and in having written from Nora's point of view.

The city of Kempton has a reputation for being dangerous, with its underground black market prospering and multiple gangs littering the streets. Tensions between these criminals have always been high, but the fiercest rivalry is between two of the most well-known groups in the city: the Silent Soldiers and the Witches of Kempton. But for two groups who clash at every turn, there is an abundance of history behind the animosity. When Nik Varma, the hacker of the Silent Soldiers, is taken into police custody, they are willing to go to the ends of the Earth to get him back-even if it means creating an alliance with their known enemies.

WATTPAD ORIGINAL EDITION When her initiation into her college's History Club goes awry, Sol has to come face to face with Ethan-the cute guy whose house she just broke into. ***** Soledad Gutierrez, or Sol to her friends, decides to join the History Club at her Community college. However, this club is not like other clubs: they have an initiation process and a slew of other 'extracurricular activities.' In order to join the club, Sol must break into the oldest house in her small Californian town and steal one of their forks. The club members provide all the materials to break in; she just needs to take the utensil, take a selfie in the kitchen, and get out undetected-with the fork, of course. The problem is: Ethan Winston spots Sol in his grandparent's house, and he's determined to uncover the reason behind the break-in. However, both he and Sol are thrown for a loop when feelings begin to develop between them. And as Ethan becomes suspicious of the History Club, he and Sol get tangled in an adventure none of them were expecting.

Valerie O'Conner has a pretty good idea of how her summer will go, and it revolves around three very simple activities: sunbathing, working at the local ice-cream parlour, and daydreaming about a world where Logan Mathews doesn't get his way. What she isn't exactly prepared for is a British tourist with a habit of pushing her out of her comfort zone. It doesn't take long for Alastair Sullivan to decide that his entertainment in sleepy Sandy Cove will be helping the town cynic find love. When Valerie's life is turned upside down by a series of promises, she's forced to battle with what she really believes in. A Young Adult story of personal growth, conflicting feelings and a whole lot of romance. Highest Rank: #37 in teen fiction.
