Journey Durant's father warned her, "Someday you'll have to lie in the bed you've made." But she didn't believe him... until now. She has just received news that her ex-boyfriend is about to be released from prison, and this reformed bad girl can't shake the feeling that her troubled past is coming home with him. The town of Emerson, Georgia has forgiven and forgotten her involvement in the most publicized tragedy in the town's history, but only because of her three-year absence, her prominent Southern Baptist family, and her marriage to the closest thing her small town has to a superhero. Bullets and emotions fly, leaving Journey to realize that no matter what penance she has done for her past, the mistakes of her youth still carry unpaid penalties. The Wattpad version of The Bed She Made is dedicated to my niece, @neondark.

Louisa and Kinsley have been best friends since their first day of college. As graduation approached, they were determined to finish their studies in style - by planning a crazy cross-country road trip to California. But when family issues send Louisa back to the UK early, they're forced to put their plans on hold, and settle for a one-year reunion instead. Twelve months later, as the pair hit the road, it soon becomes clear that things have changed. A year is a long time to be apart from your best friend - especially when you're on opposite sides of the Atlantic. As old and new lives mix, Louisa and Kinsley realize it may have been more than time zones that left them out of sync, and that a week-long road trip could be the perfect way to get their friendship back on track.
