Let's start the apocalypse.

Liv Golding and Ian Harden couldn't be any more different. She’s trying to stay out of trouble and he’s the pure definition of it. He starts fights for no reason; she needs to maintain a 4.0 GPA. He curses more than he talks. She works more than she plays. But when Ian literally ends up elbowing her in the face during one of his most recent fights, Liv decides right then and there that he’s bad news. Why else would this beautiful yet ruthless boy find solace in slamming his fist in someone face? But when their paths start crossing more and more, Liv and Ian begin to see a little bit of themselves in each other. And when the sparks fly and passion seems something they both can’t deny, Liv and Ian realize that the only way to fix a shattered heart is to have someone do it for you. Even if that person just so happens to be broken themselves.

Everyone dies, someday and somehow. Sixteen year old Allie is dying of cancer. More than anything, she wants to be a normal teenager. But pretending is exhausting and the lies pile up. With a chance at first love and true friends, Allie must choose between maintaining the pretence or risking everything with the truth. Can Allie open her heart and embrace love? If you liked 'The Fault in Our Stars' by John Green or 'A Walk to Remember' by Nicholas Sparks, you'll love Awakening to Life.

It started at a party. Not one of those adolescent parties where all the kids get drunk and make cliché mistakes. Although mistakes, I did make. But No. This was a sophisticated party, held by the towns richest, most incredibly attractive family. A party I wasn't invited to. Yet, I guess gate crashing it wasn't the best idea... Being locked into a room for three hours, was not how I would have chosen to spend my saturday night. Especially if said room belonged to hands down, the most beautiful man I had ever seen. Jex Landon. The boy every girl wants to be with, and who every guy wants to be. And he then claims I'm his... mate? ...Either he's on drugs, or my life has gotten a whole lot more complicated!

"Karma..." He muttered. I looked over at him as he smiled to himself. "Is a bitch. And so are you!" I joked. Aiden glanced up at me and glared before he smashed a spoonful of ice cream onto my face, rubbing cheek to cheek, down to my chin then up to my forehead. I just sat there, paralyzed. "Try calling me that again." He joked back, leaning forward so our faces were a few inches apart. I huffed, grabbed a napkin to wipe my face off. Only to fake him out so it seemed I wasn't going to strike. But when he wasn't paying attention, I flung a spoonful of ice cream onto his face. It hit him on the nose and eye. I broke out laughing, moaning lightly as my ribs protested in pain. But it was too funny. Aiden took the ice cream in his mouth when it slid down to his lips. "Hmmm. Cookie dough." His eyes gleamed with lust and humor. "You look handsome with ice cream on your face!" I giggled, reaching over to clean it. He stayed still, obviously liking my actions as he purred again. Summer had a dream: To major in photography and travel around the world with her sister. Problem? She has an abusive father that won't give her up for the live of him. And when she meets Aiden, the leader of a pack sworn to kill rouges(which Summer and her family are) and becomes his mate, the trouble doubles. In love, what will Summer do? Stay tuned.
