{bonus book} - She turned me down several times. She told me she was done with guys. She avoided me. But I knew better, I knew she was the kind who runs into your life only once and I just couldn’t let her go. I had to try again and again until she would tell me she wanted me, too. I knew she was special, I knew she was unique, I knew she was different. I knew Alex was an unwonted girl. And I had to have her. ~This story is a retell of Backfire. It's the same story, just a different POV~ NOTE: Unwonted IS a word, you can look it up if you don't believe me. I didn't mean unwanted (that's ANOTHER word). Understand this: it's not a typo.

{bonus book} - Dear Diary, This is the first and last time I start this… uh… entries? Whatever. It’s the first and last time I start one of these like this. How cheesy and overused, but I couldn’t think of anything else. To be honest, I’ve started this to keep track of a new –let’s call it project– I got interested in. So this will be my journal. That’s better, saying diary sounds too childish for me.

{bonus book} ✓ - Dearest Liam, From the moment I saw you, I knew you were going to be special. I just knew it. But you can’t always get what you want, or whom you want, can you? Some things are not meant to be. We never were, Liam. Never. Truly yours, Phoebe

{bonus book} ✓ - She’s a hopeless romantic– when it comes to others. She doesn’t believe in love to herself, she doesn’t believe someone could really love her. And when a platonic love becomes a real one, the always-tough Moni will show how fragile she really is; the strong girl now turns into a little bird when he knocks up at her door.

{completed} ✓ - For Darcy Williams her little sister is everything, and she will always be first. Always. No matter what, no matter who. Her own wishes and desires are in second place, even if it means to say no to Liam Payne because that would break her sweet little sister’s heart. “I’ll never hurt you.” That promise never was so hard to keep since a pop sensation appeared in her life and made her start to think of herself for a change. Maybe she will put herself first this time, maybe she will let herself fall in love… Maybe.

Does she love me? Does she love me not?

Whitney Gordon will defend her family at all costs. If people shout names or say mean things just because she has two dads, well they can all go to hell. She's a popular teen girl just like all others out there, minus the fact she has a small devil for a sister, and two gay dads for a family. Life's complicated enough as it is, and Whitney's seems to get more messed up, when the school's bully and criminal, Rai Vega, finds out about a secret she has kept for years. How far will she go to protect her deepest secret?

Because no one understands a book nerd better than a book nerd
