The first chance she gets, Corrine Whitman tries to escape from the man who abducted her. But when James catches her, she has to deal with his bizarre guilt trip. Doesn't she enjoy his company, the game nights, stimulating conversations? Doesn't she know how lucky she is to be taken by a caring man instead of a psycho? He tells her he can't live without her. He won't live without her. But Corrine has to get home to her father. So, she has a new tactic--earn James's trust and enjoy her new family--or at least pretend. If Corrine plays the game, she'll be given freedom to leave the house, just like other women she's met who were kidnapped. Corrine can't fathom how so many women and children are taken and live seemingly normal lives with their captors all across the country. But she can relate--she's one of them. Corrine plots the perfect escape. Yet, the more time she spends with James, the harder it is to leave. She knows she's suffering from Stockholm syndrome, but she is determined to save herself and the others. And if she escapes? Corrine knows no one has ever left alive-she has to be the first.

Grief stole Delilah's life. Sadness and anger replaced the carefree days of music and laughter that had once filled her life until a favor for a friend brings her back to someone she used to know. She hasn't seen Keenan since he left two years ago, but he hasn't changed. He's still the same cocky and infuriating guitarist she used to love. Filling in for his band was supposed to be a one-time thing, but when the lead singer quits suddenly, Delilah offers to stay until they can find someone long-term. It's been two years of ignoring her grief, but working with Keenan again will force Delilah to face her demons. He's the only person who understands her grief but trusting him is no easy feat. Their grief built up a wall between them, and the only way to tear it down is to put the past behind them and learn how to heal themselves. **cover made by @Matthaios_07**

There are choice: choices that can change the course of life itself. They can make people better, or ruin everything, forever. Choices make people think; sometimes, they come with second guessing, and they always come with consequences- good and bad. Choices are confusing things, but people can always get help, advice even, from that special someone. Eleanor Bale had someone like that, once. But, one tragic moment changed her life forever. The sweet, outgoing, and loving red-headed girl that everyone knew and loved became dark and cold, lost in her world of hurt and betrayal. Penn Watts- the inked, pierced, curly-haired boy- caught up in too many webs to count, found himself next to Miss Bale one night, and realized this was one web he maybe did not want out of. The classic "bad boy" and "good girl" with a twist. Never again shall Miss Bale love another. Never again shall Mr. Watts trust another. Could these two nevers just maybe turn into a forever, together?
