You don't have all the time in the world. Iyon ang totoo. Blessed to have survived her fatal illness and learning more to live with it, Polka tries to begin a new life-more like her second life. But it's not that simple. Marami na ang nagbago sa kanya, sa paligid niya, at lalo na sa mga taong mahalaga sa kanya. She had come to terms with the outcome of the years and circumstances that have passed by, and make necessary adjustments as she continues to fight for life. At higit sa lahat, ang panindigan ang naging pasya niya sa nakaraan. With the gift of life she still has, she wants to make it as worthwhile as possible. She wants to devote it to family, friends, and something valuable. She does not have the luxury of time, kaya sisiguraduhin niyang wala siyang sasayangin. Ngunit saan na nga ba lulugar si Hamlet sa pagkakataong ito?-Wala na. It all ended almost four years ago. For her, tama na ang minsang nabigyan siya ng pagkakataon; napasin at minahal siya ng taong dati ay tinitingala lamang. Everybody moved on. Everything has changed. This time, all she wants is to get through the dark and cold nights.

Adelaide Beck dared Tristan Presley to become her best friend in the fifth grade... and he said okay. After a summer of doing nearly everything together, Tristan suddenly becomes distant with her. Adelaide had always guessed that natural causes had drifted them apart and that there wasn't much more she could do to stop it. Then years later in their Junior year of high school, Adelaide and Tristan meet again in detention. The time that they're forced to spend with each other bring the two close once again, but this time Tristan's secrets will no longer be kept in the dark, and Adelaide will begin to wonder if the drift in their friendship wasn't so natural after all... !Warning: this story is mildly mature and will contain cussing, violence, and some other mature content!

Shawna Roberts is the girl that every guy turns to when they need a fake date, a fake girlfriend, a fake fling to make some other girl jealous, a fake couple photo to send to their parents... Shawna's pretty much seen it all. But no matter what they pay her for, everything she does has one common factor: it's all fake. That doesn't make being their paid girl much easier, though. Adam Ferrell is the campus heartthrob with the appearance of a god, an ego the size of Canada, and worshiped by everyone to monumentally ridiculous proportions. In Shawna's mind, it's a miracle his head fits through his shirt every morning. Yet despite their instant dislike for one another, Adam and Shawna each need what the other can offer. When Adam unexpectedly pushes into Shawna's life with a business deal, she's torn between her feelings and her sense of duty, which protects a secret she has kept for years, from even those closest to her. And as the two begrudgingly get to know each other, masks start slipping and secrets come spilling out, forcing each of them to confront some of their darkest moments and deepest fears.
