Rhett Price is usually the culprit, but, this time, he might be the solution. ***** Brooke 'Brie' Sheridan wouldn't necessarily call herself a hopeless romantic; after all, love is everywhere if you choose to look for it, and there's nothing wrong with wanting to see the beauty and the good in the world.

First book in the 'Just' series. Anne was a simple, innocent soul. She was beautiful with long golden wavy hair. She had deep, dark brown eyes which reflected the warmth of her soul. She had flawless skin with adorable freckles dotted along her nose. She was honest and kind, kinder than anyone I have ever met. She was generous and perfect but she never once was horrible towards anyone, because she saw no flaws anywhere. All she saw was beauty. Beauty in the majestic song of the birds. The crisp green of grass after the rain. Beauty in the facial expressions of people. Even the bareness of a gnarled tree smothered in a winters coat. Beauty in the world around her, which she reflected in her amazing paintings and drawings. But she couldn't draw anymore. She couldn't share her passion with the world or her stories because she was just gone. 🌻✨ The story is set 6 months after Anne goes missing. The POV constantly swaps between the characters and their stories. Will we ever find out what happened to Anne?

(CURRENTLY REVAMPED!) (The Slices of Life, #1) For years, one thing that had always bothered Serena Wilton is the idea of reconciling with a past friend. Whenever he was around, her eyes rested upon him; whether it was at classes or outside of school. She yearned for those wonderful memories again, but the looming fear just wouldn't let her initiate the conversation. Serena clearly remembered how their paths crossed in that one field trip, and the instant click as they interacted. He was nothing but a sunny friend with such contagious confidence... until that accident. Not only did he turn into someone Serena never recognized, but the relationship they built together, soured and crumbled apart. Even so, perhaps her plans can actually work if she's willing to push that stupid anxiety away and speak a word or two. Piece of cake, right?
