Delia receives the death dates of every person she meets. There has only ever been one exception: George Warner, the guy she hoped to never see again. *** Cordelia Wright has an uncanny ability: she receives the death dates of every person she meets. Things take an even stranger turn when she receives her own death date, a date that is only months in the future. Delia's life is arranged in routine - it's predictable, comfortable and she likes it that way. But her death date seems to surface everything she carefully buried. Her mom's mental health is teetering, her best friend is moving forward in life, and she is realizing her boyfriend may not know her at all. Everything is sent overboard when Warner, the guy from her past she hoped to never seen again, returns, and with him, the painful reminder that he is unlike anyone she's ever met: he doesn't have a death date. Will Delia let the fear of death stop her from living? *** tags: enemies to lovers, slow burn romance, new adult, young adult, military

Nolan, an unapproachable guy who ignores the existence of all his schoolmates, sleeps in all of his classes. Normally, this wouldn't be Chelsea Arnold's problem-she does her best to pay attention in class and attends gym like a good, normal student. Unfortunately, she just so happens to be his assigned desk partner in many classes. She's frequently forced to wake him in English class and ends up earning the unofficial title of Nolan's Wake-up Alarm-a title that nobody in the entire school covets. The last thing she wants is to interact with him more than she absolutely has to. One day, their gym teacher sends her to bring him back to class, which he always skips for some reason. When she accidentally shines her flashlight in his sleeping face, it triggers a chain of events that gradually intertwines their lives together.

[NA Featured] He could move, talk and feel. Something said impossible. Yet she couldn't help but love him. _ "Turn around slowly," said the intruder with significant command. "P-Please don't-" I stuttered. My breath hitched when a hand gripped my shoulder. The dire state had no chance to recede when I was jerked around for a face to face encounter. Fear demanded all of me, yet I had a moment of anticipation of whom I reckoned to see. "Alfie?" Once I set my eyes on the person who just forced authority, I was struck with bewilderment. A male, similar to those I thought only exist on a poster, now stood before me. His face was strong and defined. His hazel eyes were prominently alluring. As I stood at a 5'7, my head barely level his shoulder. A slight glow shimmered in his gaze, and it earned him more of my stupefaction. What I didn't expect next was the sight of his lips quirking upward. The knife in his hand fell with a silent thud as it hit the floor. The sound howled me back to reality in a haphazard manner. Before I could react, he pulled me into a firm embrace. Although still confused about what was happening, my body protested against my brain's command to pull away. _ In the future, women step up to govern the earth, a new ruling to heal the aftermath of a devastating war.

(CURRENTLY REVAMPED!) (The Slices of Life, #1) For years, one thing that had always bothered Serena Wilton is the idea of reconciling with a past friend. Whenever he was around, her eyes rested upon him; whether it was at classes or outside of school. She yearned for those wonderful memories again, but the looming fear just wouldn't let her initiate the conversation. Serena clearly remembered how their paths crossed in that one field trip, and the instant click as they interacted. He was nothing but a sunny friend with such contagious confidence... until that accident. Not only did he turn into someone Serena never recognized, but the relationship they built together, soured and crumbled apart. Even so, perhaps her plans can actually work if she's willing to push that stupid anxiety away and speak a word or two. Piece of cake, right?
