***CURRENTLY UNDER EDIT!*** Vera had lost everything: her parents, her brother, and even her voice. She couldn't remember the accident that destroyed her life, but the memories haunted her still. Then she meets Haley, a fiery redhead who drags her into a world of backstabbing and rumors. And she's about to get a lot more than what she bargained for.

When seventeen year-old Runner was sentenced to death for stealing a loaf of bread in MegaCity One, his dreams were literally at an end. But then he opts to sign up for the Remnants of Men, a government sanctioned search for a rumoured fresh water lake beyond a radiated wasteland. At first, it seemed like a second chance to a new life, the transformation from zero to hero. But after an encounter with a rabid gang of men suffering an acute insanity, he soon comes to understand that he is one of many discarded into the wasteland to study the cannibalistic effects of a new drug called the Sixth Sense. Olivia Patterson has had one too many doses of the Sixth Sense and owes a massive debt to a shadowy rebel and loan shark called Death-Throe. Being the daughter of the City's dictator, she knows too well that the gallows awaits any who associates with the rebel. In an attempt to free herself, she acquires an asset in the form of Runner and finds herself always at the edge, for if he survives it means freedom for both, but if he dies...

"You made me realize that despite the sadness in my dark sky, there's still a shining star that gives me hope," I cupped his face and put our face closer. "That I still have a reason to live" And I continued to whisper, "You are the shining star in my dark sky." Then I kissed him as passionately as ever. A lot of people come and go in our lives. Some might be easy to let go but some are so special that letting go is not an option. In the end, they might be the only light that makes you continue living despite the darkness you're seeing. Meet Paige Blace Barnette, one of Westine High’s smartest students. She’s pretty, rich and smart, so every girl in their school wanted to be like her. Sure, everyone wants to be smart, rich, pretty, and famous— all the positive traits. Apparently, not everyone knows about her disease. She has diabetes. That also explains her frequent absences but no one is bothered about those unexplained absences because she absolutely looks like she attends every class and also takes some other extra classes because of her wit. By the way, she’s not just part of the smart kids in school, she’s the smartest. Because of her disease, she had learned to self-study and surprisingly it turned out really great. Well, apparently she was born genius! But what would she do if suddenly she meets Brent Cole Garris, who apparently the.. well not really the play boy type? He WAS previously known as the bad boy but now he’s also known as the boy-with-anger-management-problem. Would they click or clash? Or would they eventually want to kill each other? Or Will they finally understand each other as they start to unleash each other's secrets. WARNING: A lot of swearing ahead. Looks like I'm a harsh person but NO. I don't swear that much in real life. I just feel that the characters' personalities are strong and somewhat aggressive. ;)
