WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION Everest is the most popular boy in school. He's handsome, wealthy, and captain of the football team-he has the world at his fingertips, but he's desperately unhappy. And when those feelings become too much to bear, he tries to take his own life. On the surface, Beverly's different from Everest in every possible way. She's quiet, shy, hard working, and keeps to herself on campus, focusing on her schoolwork and her part-time job, distracting herself from her less-than-perfect upbringing. When Everest returns to school after his attempt, he's in more pain than ever. Discarded by his friends, he draws little empathy and too much attention from those who surround him. But when Beverly and Everest meet unexpectedly in a dusty corner of the old library, they discover together just how rich life can be when given the freedom to just be yourself.

But Avery has never had a romantic bone in her body, and while there's a chance her soulmate might be Carlos, her dreamy new crush, or Adrian, her long-time childhood crush, there's also a chance...no, her soulmate couldn't possibly be her best friend's annoying older brother Vladimir.

This a crossover of Voltron and She- ra. If you don't like it then you don't have to read it. This will take place after Allura's death and in She-ra, this will take place in between episode 6 of season 3 so there will be spoilers for She-ra. Anyway there are ships in this story except, Sheith, Punk, Plance, Catradora, Glimadora, Glitra, and Pertrapa. I'm sorry if this upsets you but it really won't make sense in the story. The characters for She-ra are different than the ones in the show, so heads up. I do not own any of the pictures or characters of these two shows. Hope you like this story and thanks for reading it. Bye.
