Was published, but is now off the market--I'm sorry! Brianne is the opposite of her best friend, Kyla. Kyla is open-minded; Brianne is closed off, judgmental. Kyla is a hopeless romantic. Brianne? Not so much. So when Kyla shoves an apple into her face telling her to throw it across the cafeteria so she can find her future love, Brianne is anything but interested. And yet she throws the apple anyway. Who does the apple hit? Dannon Barone, the most popular boy in school. Though he's seemingly sweet and all-smiles, Brianne dislikes him. She thinks he's a fake, a fraud, someone who is just charming the crowds in order to gain popularity. But Brianne is about to learn that stereotypes are not true, and that she's been too quick to judge those around her. Brianne Nichols' life is about to change forever. And what does she have to thank for it? A bruised piece of fruit. Who would have known that a stupid apple could be right? | technically not part of the summary | Okay, so I know the prenote says to find any errors you can. Just letting you know there's no point to that anymore because I've reedited it two more times after this one (extensively so), and already sent it in to be self-published. The only reason that the prenote is still up is because a fan made an amusing slideshow and if I edit anything then the tags for the wattys will be gone and I'll no longer be entered , hahah!

Faye Caldwell has never been the same ever since her sister, Terra, killed herself seven years ago. She's haunted by her sister's memory, taunted by nightmares that mock the day her sister plunged to the ground. The fear of falling and ending up like Terra consumes her. Even the slighest falls make Faye scream, the terror taking over her body. Faye doesn't know how much more she can take. What she doesn't know is that those fears and dreams will drive her to do something that will change the way she looks at her life forever. Kole Frost lives a normal life. He has friends that he can (somewhat) count on, and a brother who is always there for him. He doesn't think that being dragged to Xia, a club that allowed minors, would do anything to him. He doesn't want to go, but he goes anyway--just to get his friend off his back. And when his best friend, Terence, gets drunk, he doesn't think anything of it. It's normal. Normal. But little does he know that that trip to Xia is about to change his life forever. The two worlds collide when Faye and Kole meet at the legendary Gate. The Gate, said to be protecting them from a horrible beast on the other side of its borders. The Gate which separates the two genders from each other. The Gate, which no one has ever seen before. That is, until now. Faye and Kole will learn that their "normal" worlds are not so normal after all. They'll learn that Cesve has secrets, ones that have been kept for a long, long time. And they take it upon themselves to find out just what those secrets are. There is one thing that must always be remembered: The Gate keeps them apart.
