"I am a pessimist by nature. It is after all the wisest way to be. We pessimists have everything to gain, whereas optimists have a fifty-fifty chance of being disappointed." - Tamar Myers

Carter Samuels was a pessimist. It wasn't that she was afraid to take chances or risks. No, it was her view towards other people and the disappointment they bring. 

In order to explain her mindset, she created a journal. "The rules of being a pessimist". This journal would cover exactly what she thought about life, and once finished she would give it to the one person who could change everything she had ever written.

One day you're happy, and the next, a freak accident exposes your boyfriend's dirty little secrets in the worst possible way. I lost the man I loved, my trust in people, and my home in less than one afternoon. At least I know that I've pushed past unimaginable pain before, and I can do it again. Elijah didn't break me, just my heart. 💔🔨 So, the LAST thing I needed was to run into my ex's best friend, Gray on the street. Who cares if he's hotter than lava? Gray's a cocky jerk who seems to get a misguided kick out of making my blood boil. And did I mention the guy's got a chip on his tattooed shoulder even bigger than his inflated ego? Unfortunately, I just found out that I accidentally hired him to work on the BIGGEST campaign of my career!💀 But when Gray's prismatic eyes fill with heartfelt apologies, I don't know how to feel. It's messing with my mind, my career, my new friendships, and worst of all, it's hurting what's left of my ruined heart. I thought Gray hated me, but I was wrong...There is something much, much stronger that binds our fate. 🥊💕 This book contains adult themes (aka sexy stuff and trigger content) as well as Oxford commas and the occasional grammatical error. 🥊💕 **This is a complete story that I am currently in the process of editing, so feedback, notes, and helpful comments are always welcome.

*Completed* "I just want to know why." I say as I turn over, trying to find his figure through the dark of my room. "Why what?" He asks. "Why you're being so nice to me." I say quietly, vulnerability seeping into my words. "How we even became friends." He sighs, "I want to know how." I scrunch my brow. "How what?" His response is soft, the opposite of his sarcastic personality. "How you don't see it." ******* Reagan Holt was about as average as a high school student could be. She didn't play any sports, didn't participate in the popular activities, and wasn't the girl all the boys chased after. All except one boy. He wrote her a letter every week. Each letter described something new for him to love about her. Whether it was how beautiful her laugh was or how his heart swelled with every smile she gave, he never failed to write how he felt. So the two should be together, right? That's the way Reagan wants it, but there's just one problem. He signs his letters "Love, Anonymous." Now add an obnoxious, conceited, sex god into the equation and you get a teenage girl confused on who really loves her. The sweet, tender written anonymous lover, or the cocky, ignorant asshole? -REVIEWS- "You create such wonderful characters and I can't wait to see what happens next!" VampireSa5m41993 "Thank you for wonderful dogs and little brothers and eccentrically hormonal best friends!" -Nat-Attack "I am totally hooked on this book!" nbazinet "I love the way the story flows and that you have really roundabout characters. It's as if they're real while I'm reading!" life_is_beautiful115 "Your work is literally art." lemonsun123 "Every time I read this book it just makes me smile." Nicooole97 Cover by: -winterr

The Bad Boy Has Secrets

23 parts Complete

*Some people bring out the worst in you, Some people bring out the best in you* I watched as his lips moved, how his fist clenched and unclenched, how his eyes flicked between the piece of paper and me. I looked around the room at the people that I had grown so close to in such a short time, and I knew right then that not all of us were going to be left unharmed. Some were going to be hurt, maybe even killed. Charlotte Thompson, she's the BadGirl at her school, does what she wants, when she wants, to whom she wants. So when Charlotte crosses paths with someone who's perfect for her, but can't have her because it's too dangerous, what might just happen? Jace Hunter, Bad boy at his school, the boy does everything he's not supposed too, breaks every rule, everything you can imagine a bad boy is and more. But everyone has secrets and everyone had a past, the truth eventually comes out and those who are the way of it get taken down and don't return, or do they?
