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

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.

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.

For Every Missing Shade by Israel_Taylor

Israel Taylor knows the world is a mess. In fact, it's all he can think about. As an avid artist, he imagines life as a black-and-white landscape, waiting to be painted. He uses a metaphor of color to describe everything he wishes the world was, but he can't help but feel stuck in the ocean of apathy high school life has become for him. His first drop of paint comes in the form of a girl named Emma McKenzie. They fall in love as she shows him just how much color the world can hold. But, seeing color means seeing the full spectrum, and Israel soon learns that though there are colors more beautiful than grey, there are also colors that feel darker than black. For Every Missing Shade is a blunt, funny, and intense digression into how the human spirit can create something beautiful even as beauty seems absent. Told in diary format through Israel's thoughts, dream sequences, and short stories, For Every Missing Shade is a new reminder that the world is not beautiful in spite of broken people. The world is beautiful because of broken people. I initially wrote this as a short story for my creative writing class my senior year of high school. It was supposed to represent the two seemingly irreconcilable parts of my personality making peace with each other. Becoming something greater together. But, as I wrote this story, it grew and shifted into something bigger. It became a place for me to put everything I felt, realized, explored, and cried about during my high school and college life. I don't want to spoil too much of the plot. Just know it's about a boy and a girl. A boy who was obsessed with creating a world that could finally cater to the oddity he felt he was. A girl who taught him just how much he'd been missing in life by trying to control it. And a life that showed how much it could give and how much it could take.

𝐀𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐚: 𝐇𝐢𝐬 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐃𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦 [SLOW UPDATES] by justevaraa

She will survive. She will get justice. She's his dream, that he'll chase madly. He will have her, no matter what the odds are. He can go to any extent, even if it means to kill or die. Or to commit a Sin. A story filled with Mysteries, Madness, Desire, Love and most importantly-Survival. This will be the cutest story that you'll read, but also dangerously obsessive even if read just once. Amara: His Beautiful Dream is worth reading, I assure you. You won't regret reading this. But yes, this will be triggering at many points, in such cases, where it causes harm to you or your emotions then I request you to not read it further. The story is fictional and surely worth reading, as it may give you few life lessons too. happy reading<3

This changes when she meets a man who not only makes her feel a love beyond imagination but also paints her shadows and gives color to her name.
