How powerful do you think coincidences can be? They're the only thing in this world that we can't control. And that's what makes them a miracle. Jade is a senior girl who's life was perfect. No worries whatsoever. But it all changes when she loses her father. She is very young yet the eldest of her sisters. So will she be able to endure that responsibility? Through all that pain comes worse deals. Diagnosis seems to be her second worst news of her life. Will she pass it? Or will it end her life slowly, eating her up on the inside to bits and pieces? Most importantly, will she confess to anyone about it? Add to that the drama she and her best friend Sarah go through, and the way they handle love, friendship and every other obstacle that comes their way. Sarah here has her own story hidden. With all the bad times she sticks up for Jade, she forgets about her own life. Or does she? Just so you know, thank God for your life every day. Because as I know, most of us lose hope when going through catastrophes. But you know what? We should be the strongest at those times, because sooner or later, better things are coming.

"Sometimes all we need is that one person who understands us more than we do ourselves" Oblivious of the world, lost in his thoughts, Dylan Jacobson was a mystery. He was familiar with the word "loneliness" the way we are with alphabets. He was someone nobody ever understood. Someone whom no one ever wanted to understand. His mind was a maze, and he himself didn't know the way out. Murph Hale was popular, not because of herself, but because of her friends. Her friends were all a girl would want to be like. But, intriguingly none of it bothered Murph. She was too busy just being herself. But what happens when they both meet? Do their lives change or does it become worse?

Wuthering Heights is a wild, passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a foundling adopted by Catherine's father. After Mr Earnshaw's death, Heathcliff is bullied and humiliated by Catherine's brother Hindley and wrongly believing that his love for Catherine is not reciprocated, leaves Wuthering Heights, only to return years later as a wealthy and polished man. He proceeds to exact a terrible revenge for his former miseries. The action of the story is chaotic and unremittingly violent, but the accomplished handling of a complex structure, the evocative descriptions of the lonely moorland setting and the poetic grandeur of vision combine to make this unique novel a masterpiece of English literature.

He lit his cigarette, I lit nothing. He drank alcohol, I drank water. He smirked, I smiled. He didn't love me, I didn't love him. He and I together wouldn't last a day. And then the game started... He said he found me intriguing, unique, and interesting because I didn't swoon over him. "You and me Grey, let's play a game. We'll date and in three months time I promise you will fall for me. When you fall in love with me between that time span, I win. If in any way you were to win I'll give up all the alcohol, cigarettes, and player ways." It was a game I wasn't willing to lose, but all games had accidents and consequences. It takes a broken heart to know how to break a heart.
