Sarah Campbell has everything she's ever wanted. She worked day and in and day out for her acceptance to her dream school, Vanderbilt University. And now that she's got it she can't wait to finally let loose. She never was the goodie-two-shoes her parents thought she was, but with a new start here at Vandy, she's really ready to make a name for herself. Except she already has one. Sarah Campbell, Peer Mentor. Sarah's been volunteering as a peer mentor at Vanderbilt since she was in high school, so it's no shock to her when her boss asks her to take on the hardest case of the semester. Cue Adam Watson. Adam Watson is ready to move out and move on. With a past riddled with mistakes, he's ready to create a new future for himself. The only problem? Vanderbilt isn't so forgiving. He's handed his acceptance and football scholarship with one condition, that he meets with a peer mentor once a week. After a serious warning from the head coach, and threats of being kicked off the team, Adam realizes that the only way he's going to keep his starting position is by actually attending these meetings once a week. Even if it's not by choice. Sarah Campbell and Adam Watson's worlds collide in a unique set of circumstances, and neither one of them are necessarily thrilled about it. But as Sarah begins to spend more time with Adam, she realizes that there's more to him than what meets the eye. And maybe, just maybe, there's a piece of him worth saving. *Trigger Warning: This book deals with issues such as Alcoholism & Bulimia. -Updates: once a week -Cover created by: TinHoverCarlnIce

In Elemental magic you can be one of four magic types; water, fire, earth, and air. The only problem is Violet is none of these things. Is she what they call a magic dud, or is she something rarer, more powerful, and more dangerous than anyone could have imagined!? Teasers, "Em, most girls sneak out for a boy, you sneak out for a unicorn." I began to cry as it reached for my face."No!" I screamed. "Please No!" I went to pull back the shower curtain, but some nagging thought in the back of my head stopped me. I didn't have a little brother, so why was there a little boy in my bathroom? I gulped and with shaking hands pulled back the shower curtain. "What!? How could that be!?" I yelled, and covered my hand with my mouth. Shouting wasn't such a good idea right at this moment. If someone heard us and came up here to investigate the noise we were making, they would find a boy and a girl, a bloody knife with both their finger prints on it, and a very very dead body. "Don't touch her!" he hissed and lunged at Henry. Running through the night wearing nothing but a flimsy hospital dress, while waving a dismembered hand in his hand, was a strangeness no regular person could hope to inspire to.
