Amara Kingsley has known only one thing her entire life: peace.
She has everything a girl could ever want, any and all of her problems whisked away under the marvelous tip of her paint brush. 
She has a gift.
That's why she is sent to England to study art and photography, which has been her dream since the second grade. Soon, though, Amara learns that dreams aren't as amazing and perfect as they seem. 
This move triggers an unstoppable downward spiral in her life, a torrent of suffering and pain that no paintbrush can sweep away. To make matters worse, she is unable to rely on her grief stricken mother or any of her shallow new friends. 

All hope is lost.
It would just be better to die.

But then...

Two people enter her life and change it for the better. They give her something that she could never find anywhere else.

Hope.

A reason to live.

She will never be the same.All Rights Reserved

A Little Bit Of Joy | ✔ by wigglysubu

[Featured by wattpad romance, teen fiction, young adult and psychologicalnovel] Joy Jones was a seventeen-year-old kind and optimistic girl working in her grandpa's flower shop, but she had a secret. She was suffering from acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and wanted nothing, but to die peacefully. That was until Logan Kellerman, a young man with suicidal tendencies came storming into her life and stole roses from her grandpa's flower shop. Instead of running away with what he came for, he found himself falling deeper and deeper into her as she made his heart skip in delight, for she was, in her own words, a little bit of Joy. * * * from some of my readers of this book, thanks❤- ❝I LOVE YOUR STORY OKAY.

Raindrop by XxEmmma98xX

"I met Amara Rowe the week she started school here. She watched as an old friend stuffed her face with marshmallows. She left after looking lost, so I followed her. She was by a trash can looking... frustrated. She threw away a paper and I picked it out of the trash can after she left.... it was a list. Now it wasn't an ordinary list, no, it was a bucket list, with 10 things written on it. And at the top of the list was, make a friend. And the rest of the list looked... simple. She was simple. At the bottom of the list it said, die happy. And at the time I didn't understand, I didn't think much of it. I thought that maybe she was still adding to it and it wasn't in any specific order. But I wanted to help her do everything on that list. I couldn't help her if I wasn't her friend so that is what I did first." * Amara has a health issue that no other students know about. It's her secret and she will only talk about it if she believes you can handle it. Will her new friend, Clay, be able to handle her secret? Or will Amara have to handle his secret? Three secrets. Two teens. One truth.

My Sugarplum by bartholomewanderson

"The best way to get over a woman is to turn her into literature." -Henry Miller. So here I am, turning it all into words. If you're expecting an epic adventure, brace yourself for something else entirely-this is the story of a teenage boy with a life more tangled than a set of headphones in your pocket. Messed up? Definitely. But who isn't? It's not a grand saga of triumphs or tragedies, just a collection of moments-some chaotic, some confusing, and a few that even felt like they mattered. At the heart of it all, though? Love. That infuriating, impossible thing we all think we understand until we're neck-deep in it. So, buckle up. It's not perfect, but it's real.

Broken by JaneLanett

"There are a few moments in life that are perfect and surreal; like a beautiful dream you don't want to wake up from, but when you do, you can't seem to remember what it was about. Then there are the terrible moments, absolute nightmares that nothing you do can make you forget them. This was that moment." Makenna Adams is in her third year of College with a dark past that none of her friends know about. She's no longer the sweet and innocent girl she was three years ago, she's bitter and always seeks danger. But when an English boy, Atlas, transfers to her college, she starts to see glimpses of the old her and she won't have it because the old her is nothing but broken. Prequel to Bruised.

Armour of Vows by AuthorNitsia

In reality, there are no kings- just soldiers-all of us. Amara Van Doren was never meant to fit in a game, especially not the one her father played with his own rules. She ran when she realised she was nothing but a piece to sacrifice. To escape her past life and build a new one. But does the past life ever leave you? Christopher Knight lived a life of secrets, rules and vows, even the ones he regrets making. He managed to escape his past and lived a life close to peaceful until a blazing redheaded fire came into his life. He was never meant to be a knight in shining armour but the offer was far more tempting to turn down, especially when it came with secrets waiting to be unveiled. They remember different realities and have different notions of the truth. What happens when two realities come crashing down? Will the story be set straight or will the tangles prove to be far deeper, with no loose ends to be found?
