Was published, but is now off the market--I'm sorry! Brianne is the opposite of her best friend, Kyla. Kyla is open-minded; Brianne is closed off, judgmental. Kyla is a hopeless romantic. Brianne? Not so much. So when Kyla shoves an apple into her face telling her to throw it across the cafeteria so she can find her future love, Brianne is anything but interested. And yet she throws the apple anyway. Who does the apple hit? Dannon Barone, the most popular boy in school. Though he's seemingly sweet and all-smiles, Brianne dislikes him. She thinks he's a fake, a fraud, someone who is just charming the crowds in order to gain popularity. But Brianne is about to learn that stereotypes are not true, and that she's been too quick to judge those around her. Brianne Nichols' life is about to change forever. And what does she have to thank for it? A bruised piece of fruit. Who would have known that a stupid apple could be right? | technically not part of the summary | Okay, so I know the prenote says to find any errors you can. Just letting you know there's no point to that anymore because I've reedited it two more times after this one (extensively so), and already sent it in to be self-published. The only reason that the prenote is still up is because a fan made an amusing slideshow and if I edit anything then the tags for the wattys will be gone and I'll no longer be entered , hahah!

New York. The Big Apple. A world of opportunities and open minds. Arguably the greatest city in the world. This is not quite true for Gracie Daniels (AKA Broadway Kid, courtesy of her very best friend, Ethan Abbott), however. As a fifteen year old foster kid who spends her free time riding the subways and singing Broadway tunes for extra cash, she never expected her life to be much more than ordinary. She definitely did not expect to be whisked into the world of professional Broadway musical theatre by none other than writer, lyricist, and star of Hamilton, Lin Manuel Miranda. This foreign, fast paced world of stars, songs, and dance is a dream come true for Gracie. But can she maintain the secrets of her past while developing a bright future?

The everlasting cycle of being thrown from one foster home to another is enough to destroy a girls self love and ability to see the world as beautiful. I have been bounced from home to home since I was 10 years old. I had been placed with families that treated me like I was their own child, but also with people who only used me for the monthly foster payments. I have an encounter with a man named Lin-Manuel Miranda, whom I later find out is the creator of the hit Broadway show "Hamilton" Will he simply be another person who looks at me with pity, or will he change my life? My name is Olivia, and this is my story. [started 6-10-16] [highest rank : #18 in fanfiction] [fanfiction including the cast of hamilton]
