Now together at university, Elliot and Ben have the freedom (and privacy) to focus on and enjoy their relationship. But with that newfound freedom comes expectations, and living up to those expectations is proving to be overwhelming for Ben. Elliot overcame a lot in the last year: she started running again, she dealt with her mom's death, and she faced her doubt. Much in thanks to Ben, who slowly helped her open up and find herself. Now away at university, Elliot and Ben have the freedom to enjoy their relationship, but Ben's feeling the pressure of being the person he knows he's not. He's feeling the pressure to be someone he thinks Elliot deserves. He has his own doubt to tackle--and a decision to make: to choose Elliot or to choose a life without her. Sequel to Starting Position. Warning: contains themes of sexuality and brief language. Tags: slow burn romance, new adult, second chance

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. It's hard to be a normal student when you start befriending the school oddball. It doesn't help that he has more secrets than the Big Ben has stairs. ----- Complete.

(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?
