★ NOW PUBLISHED! ★ What do you get when you add the ultimate meet cute + a bruised head? = A whole can of heartbreak. It all starts in aisle three. Lacie O'Connor prefers to see the world in black and white, logical, rational, and natural, like her biology major. She just wants to survive her freshman year of college, but first she must find a can of peas. Instead, she gets hit on the head with a box of cake mix. Trent Montgomery is all saturated and technicolor even in the maroon employee polo. Lacie thought she left him and his sheepish smiling friend at the grocery store but finds him in her most dreaded class: Intro to Philosophy. He sits next to her, and it's all PLATOnic until he presses his foot up against hers. That's all it takes for her to get lost in the philosophy of Trent. What starts out as sidewalk conversations soon leads to study sessions that transform to cuddle sessions that transform to make-out sessions. But just before winter break, Trent steps back. He dodges her texts. He kisses her in private but blows her off in public. Lacie knows miscommunication and mixed signals spread like an invasive plant species, but what she can't figure out is which version of Trent is real. The one she met in aisle three, or the one who likes to get drunk in dorm building basements. © 2015 ℓαℓαℓαℓαwriting © 2019 ℓαℓαℓαℓαwriting |Edited/NEW| © 2022 Published version All Rights Reserved |Third Place Winner in #Readytoreadya2018 Young Adult Reads Contest|

Popular, good-looking, and arrogant, with a killer smile. That's Xavier Cassidy. Equally popular and good-looking, but also funny, smart, and boyishly charming. That's Ryan Cassidy. One's supposedly a "bad boy," but I blame the black leather jacket. One's the school's football star, even though he also plays basketball, baseball, and maybe even lacrosse. One's older, which means one's obviously younger. Everyone knows who they are, but I guess that's just the definition of popular. For the past three years I, Max McKinney, have just been an observer to their so called "awesome" lives, but then I smash my face into Xavier's locker, and he's hell-bent on never ever letting me forget it. With a few more slips, mall-trips, awkward-to-deep conversations, a secret admirer, and one party later I may find myself falling-for one of them at least ©2015 ℓαℓαℓαℓαwriting

Oliver is willing to try and convince her that not all boys are the same. With their mutual love of books, the two begin one of the oddest friendships ever formed. And through it, the truth about books and boys is uncovered once and for all.

After the Senior Year from hell, Isabelle Conway's life seems to be coming together. Finally. Scholarship to the college of her dreams? Check. Friends she couldn't imagine living without? Double check. Perfect (though sometimes super annoying) boyfriend? Triple check. Everything in the land of Isabelle is great. Kinda. When Issy receives an invitation she can't refuse and is forced to move to LA, Noah and Issy's relationship will be put to the ultimate test. Will these high school sweethearts beat the odds? - Yes, I suck at blurbs and yes much like Cupid's Daughter, Cupidity will most likely be clichéd. I'm okay with that. In fact, EMBRACE THE CLICHÉ. Please note that Cupidity is a sequel, so please read Cupid's Daughter first, otherwise many parts of this novel will not make sense. If you choose to read Cupidity first anyway... well, good luck. Please note that this story contains coarse language and some mature themes. Also, this story is no longer set in high school, but college. Therefore, Issy is going to be facing some more adult situations and there will be some scenes that are aimed at a mature audience. Please take this into consideration before reading.

Ranked #20 in teen fiction! When Noah Jones, the school's resident hottie, asked me to help him win his ex back, I told him he was crazy. I mean, sure my mom was Cupid (kind of anyway...it's a long story), but her knack for matchmaking definitely had not rubbed off on me. In fact, I'd never even had a boyfriend before, unless you counted Steven McWarry in the third grade, which I totally didn't. But for some reason, I decided to help him. Was it a bad idea? Yes. Was I digging myself into a hole too big to crawl out of? Absolutely. Did I regret it? Not one bit. At least, not yet anyway... PLEASE NOTE THIS BOOK IS NOT FANTASY AND DOES NOT HAVE ANY SUPERNATURAL THEMES. :) Contains some mature themes and coarse language\\Do not redistribute, reproduce or copy this story in anyway.

----- In serious need of revision! ----- Wanna-be journalist Kate Santoro would do anything for the scoop. Anything. Including finding her way into an underground club exclusive to only those in the Genovese mafia and the beautiful women they employee. What could be more perfect? She would stick to the shadows, snap a few videos, and write the biggest story New York has ever seen, therein making her a legend! Easy as pie. Until she gets found. A series of blatant lies and lucky breaks later and she is mistaken to be one of the workers underneath. While many might be terrified of this predicament Kate couldn't be more excited. The freedom to roam the area and talk to the members of the infamous brotherhood will leave no rock unturned. All she has to do is keep her cover until the night is over and the workers go home. What a fantastic position she is in! There are just two problems. One being him. Alessio. The Don, the Godfather, the Capo di tutti capi (the boss of bosses) who has taken a keen interest in Kate. Even that is something she could probably handle for one night. Except problem number two. They don't leave. Not at the end of the night, the end of the week, or even the end of the month. Alessio's interest in Kate threatens to expose her, something she would surely die from. He knows she doesn't belong but it's not as though she could have just waltzed in, right? By the time Kate realizes that not even the greatest scoop is worth the price, she is in far too deep to call it quits now. ~~~Praise for When The Sun Goes Down~~~ Natasha427: "It was so captivating that I may or may not have spent the last several hours holed up in my room frantically scrolling down to read more. I LOVED IT!" uninteresting17: "You're my soulmate. I love just everything about your writing." Daisy_Blue: "Has anyone seen my heart? It seems to have been ripped out and tossed across the ocean." NaughtyPlease: "I am beyond obsessed with this piece of literature heaven!!!"

TheLone1yWriter: "You play my heart like a puppet on strings with your words" Jackyherr06: "Reading this feels like falling in love again and again, with a twist." Luna_loves_you_4ever: "Very well written, great plots and amazing characters it's almost as if you've taken it from real life events. I've never seen a pov of the opposite sex written so well written." Simplysopha: "The interactions between the characters was a scene of raw emotions that left lingering effects." Candi2302: "We love being tortured with emotions! That's how great our writing is...not many authors can say that." __lala_: "I love the fact that I can hate a character and love then at the same time!"
