This isn't a story for the faint of heart. This is a story about a girl who loved a boy. A boy who couldn't love her back. This is a story about the bitter, the sweet, betrayals, second chances, and redemption. If your heart doesn't hurt by the end of this wreckage, then I haven't done my job properly.

{CURRENTLY REWRITING} BRODY MILLER... I was a hockey star. There was no modest way to put it. I was the best of the best. I was the captain of the best Division I team in the country. It didn't help that I was smart and hot. I was that guy that made all the rest self-conscious. I had my fair share of puck bunnies, all running at my every beck and call. I thought I had it all, until I realized I didn't have everything. I didn't have my perfect girl. I didn't have Hailey Allen and I wasn't going to stop until she was mine. HAILEY ALLEN... Athletes were not my type. They were rude and cocky and oh-so-gorgeous. My issue was that they were painfully aware of that last fact. They though they were God's gift to Earth. I liked my men modest and humble. Smart and caring. Kind and responsible. I definitely was never going to fall in love with the ice hockey star, even if he did have the most incredible green eyes. Even if he was as smart as I could only wish to be. Even if he was Brody Miller and just so easy to fall in love with. {Viewer discretion advised - strong language and sexual references} #258 in teenfiction #1 in Sport

True love always finds a way... but at what cost? After injuries sustained from a serious car accident, Zachary Mazur no longer remembers the soul-searing love he once shared with the girl of his dreams, Caterina Donati. Still, the heart wants what it wants. As Zac falls head over heels in love with Cate once again, painful memories resurface and threaten the young lovers' hard won reunion. Will Zac and Cate be able to find happiness at last? Or will the dark secrets from their past tear them apart? "Gilded Hearts" is the second book in my "Gilded" series. It's recommended for new readers to start with the first book, "Gilded Cage," before reading this one.

Cages aren't made of iron or steel; they're made up of the lies and half-truths we build our realities upon. Sixteen-year-old Caterina Donati's life appears ridiculously perfect on the outside. She's rich, beautiful, and top of her class and continues to maintain this facade until an old classmate's return to Ashton Wellesley Academy turns her world upside down. With ink, piercings, and attitude to match, Zachary Mazur is no longer the boy everyone used to bully in seventh grade. They become rivals from day one. Chaos ensues as egos clash and sparks fly. Cate soon discovers there's much more to Zac than meets the eye, and the two of them embark on a quest for truth and justice. The dark and wrenching journey brings Cate and Zac closer than ever even while it unravels everything the young lovers know about themselves and the smiling sharks around them. "Gilded Cage" is the first book in my "Gilded" series. Be sure to check out the sequel, "Gilded Hearts," after reading this one.
