At Eagleton's Boarding School for Magics, there was only one thing that Heather Remington hated more than school work: Ian Sullivan. Sure, she was surrounded by charms and spells and potions, but what good was that when she got detentions for not tucking her shirt in from the irksome Sullivan, Student Leader extraordinaire? He was such the goody two shoes that it made Heather want to gouge her eyes out on the daily. He forced her to go to study sessions with him, made sure she did her homework, and mothered her more than her own mother was capable of. Then one day, things are different, and neither of them are quite sure what it is or what's happening to them.
Add this to a Magic school, odd classes, friends who don't seem to understand, and an unfortunate incident involving a heavy book and a jock's head. And the Almost Glitter Incident (but whatever you do, DON'T mention the pink hair).
Told over the course of a school year, the slow burn of a relationship is discovered by a month by month procession. Ian and Heather have a lot to find out-- both about themselves, and each other. Friends betray and opposites attract.
Will Heather be able to shed her marble layers and allow Ian to see what she hides away? Start the new school year with them and find out.

Golden Boy
This is a rewritten version of Golden Boy! It's completely new except for the names of the characters. Everyone has that one thing that they fear the most, that if they ever had to go through it, it would traumatize them. For Elliot, it was having someone break into her house. She's been scared of that ever since watching Michael Myers stalk his niece from outside her window in Halloween, a movie that she shouldn't have watched when she was 8 years old. Elliot faces her worst nightmare when a strange person with unexplainable abilities finds himself in her room, uninvited on Halloween night. She wakes up the next morning with no memory of it. Elliot's senior year was supposed to be above average, in the sense that it would actually be fun compared to the first three years of high school. It was the last year she was going to spend in her hometown Ardsley, New York, before moving across the country to LA for college. She was going to spend it going to parties with her best friend Camilla, eating fro-yo every day, and prepping for prom and graduation. Elliot would never have guessed how a certain Golden Boy would have a hand in ruining her senior year. Now she was stuck uncovering the truth as she's dragged into a whole new world she never asked to be a part of, with a boy she's never asked to become friends with, and possibly gain a new outlook of life that might just keep her in New York for longer than she would have liked.Complete
It Started With Hello
***** Emma Pear knew she wasn't the most popular girl in high school. Her nose was usually buried in a textbook, and her grades were as spotless as her reputation for always following the rules. "Nerd" was a label she'd long since embraced. Her parents, determined to keep her on the straight and narrow, packed her schedule with violin lessons, shifts at the local animal shelter, and tutoring sessions for elementary school kids. Emma barely had time to breathe, let alone experience "normal" teenage rites of passage like parties, late-night hangouts, or even just goofing off with friends. So when the captain of the football team-the captain-unexpectedly asked her to the school dance, Emma saw a glimmer of a different life. She practically begged her parents, and to her shock, they actually said yes. She had no idea that one night, under the glittering lights of the gym, would rewrite her entire story. Blake Black was the kind of high school loner who radiated an almost magnetic quiet. Girls whispered about him in the halls, drawn to his mysterious aura and the fact that he rarely spoke to anyone. Most of his time was spent wrangling his hyper little brother, Alex. Their parents, a brain surgeon and a heart doctor, were perpetually busy, leaving little time for their growing boys. His parents made it clear attending the school dance wasn't optional. They just wanted him to "act like a normal high schooler" for a few hours. Blake's plan was simple: show his face, then ditch the minute he decently could. He brushed off a parade of hopeful girls, already counting down the minutes until he could escape. But then he saw what happened to Emma. And unlike everyone else, he couldn't just stand by and watch.Complete

Ava
Here's a for you story 🌸 It's catchy, emotional, and written to grab attention - --- ### **Story Description:** Ava just wanted a quiet senior year - no drama, no attention, no disasters. But fate clearly didn't get the memo. First, she nearly gets *hit by a car* on her way to school (and somehow makes a new friend out of it). Then, before she can even recover from that near-death morning, she trips in the hallway straight into the arms of a boy she's *never seen before* - the kind of boy who smirks like he knows all your secrets. Kian Rivers. Tall. Infuriating. Way too confident. And apparently, everywhere she turns. What starts as a clumsy encounter spirals into something neither of them can ignore. Between chaotic parties, whispered teasing, and unspoken tension, Ava finds herself caught between irritation and attraction - and maybe, something dangerously in between. Because sometimes, the people you collide with by accident are the ones you were meant to find all along. ---
Unspoken heart
At Blackwood Academy, rivalry runs deep, and no one embodies this more than Noah Sullivan and Liam Carter-two top students locked in a never-ending battle for dominance. Whether it's grades, sports, or student council elections, they never miss a chance to one-up each other. Their hatred is legendary, their clashes explosive. But behind Noah's sharp words and cold glares lies a secret-one that he refuses to admit, even to himself. Because as much as he claims to despise Liam Carter, his heart tells a different story. To make matters worse, Liam is completely oblivious. His focus is entirely on Emma Wright, the girl he's hopelessly in love with. He showers her with attention, oblivious to the quiet torment brewing inside the very person he calls his greatest enemy. As their rivalry intensifies, so do Noah's emotions. Every glance, every argument, every stolen moment only fuels the longing he tries so hard to bury. But when unexpected circumstances force them to spend more time together, lines start to blur. What happens when hatred masks something far more dangerous? And will Noah be able to hide his feelings forever, or will the truth finally break through? A story of unrequited love, slow-burning tension, and the thin line between rivalry and desire-Unspoken Hearts is a tale of emotions left unsaid and the heart's relentless battle against reason.Complete
