Living in Los Angeles and finding herself in desperate need of money, Iris found it the most obvious option to try her hand at acting. Working as an extra on big time movie sets for years, she's gotten the hang of things. She stays under the radar, does her job, and then moves on. She's met her fair share of celebrities but she's found it that the easiest way to do her job is to stay as far away from them as possible. However, once she's noticed by one of the stars of the movie, she can't be unnoticed. Now, Iris has to decide if he's worth all of the risk that comes along with him. She doesn't want to get hurt again-the world as already failed her so much. Not only that but being associated with a celebrity means putting your life on blast too and Iris realizes that she's stuck deciding between a leap of faith to find love or playing it safe to protect her dirty secrets. And like most nineteen year olds, she is absolutely clueless about what to do.

Dear Nobody, My name is Luna Rose Wesley and I'm just like any other girl my age. I have some secrets, I'm afraid of the future, I have some complicated relationships and some amazing friends, and I'm just trying to do anything that I can to survive. But as the days pass, it seems like surviving in my world is becoming more difficult with every minute. You see, without any money, my family is forced to live in in an apartment building that's smack dab in the center of our rundown part of the city. And my mother is just a work of art. She is now addicted to drugs, and she isn't trying very hard at all to try to get us out of our inner-city situation. Living in constant fear, not only of what's outside my window at night, but also of my violent dealing brother living in the room across the hall, I have to find a way to cope without putting a bullet in my skull like so many of my fallen brethren. And my coping mechanism is to write letters to nobody- to you- and sending it to an address that doesn't exist. I need somebody to talk to without that somebody thinking that I'm looking for pity, so I've found you. Nobody. Thanks for listening. Sincerely, Luna Rose (Rated Mature for the mentioning of sex, drug use, violence, and profane language. Does not contain actual sex scenes.)

Jensen Cane was one of those cliché kids in high school. You know, the bottom of the food chain, eye of the bullies kind of kid that everybody feels sorry for but never sorry enough to actually help? With a target on her back, Jensen struggles through her first year of high school just like all of the other clichés. Waiting for her moment to shine, waiting for the rain to pass.

Of course, the mental turmoil had left a scar in Jensen but she's moved on to bigger and better things with multi-million subscribers and a hopeless crush on her best friend. She's turned her whole life around, just to have it crash back down around her.

Ariel Brooks lives a good life. She has an amazingly large house and a wonderful puppy and a great best friend. She even has one thing that most teenagers would die for- her own house. Well, not technically, but she does live by herself. Her dad is always away on business and her brother is out of the house, so she has the house to herself. She does what most people would do in this situation- parades around without pants on, drinks milk out of the carton, and plays her music way too loud. Ariel isn’t particularly happy about being alone so much, but she doesn’t complain because she knows that she has a good life. That is, until her best friend asks her for a favor of all favors and it changes Ariel’s perspective on everything.
