"While I may not have the perfect life, I manage and I don't want you ruining this for me. . ."
Hallie Willows is a calm know-it-all with no fear inside her. She has confidence that is quite hard to find in most people. She is an independent girl who can take care of herself. She doesn't need anybody in her life, besides Jasper of course. He helps her stay sane.
Yet, on one fateful day, after one fateful encounter, Hallie realizes she if talks the talk she's going to have to walk the walk. Maybe she doesn't have to be so alone as she thought. So when a certain boy falls on her (don't confuse that with FOR), Hallie doesn't know why she can't just get this stupid boy off her back. Literally.
With this new encounter, things start looking up for Hallie, but are they all for the right reasons? Only one way to find out. . .

She had always lived life on her own terms-surrounded by people, never tied down, never taking anything too seriously. But when she meets Daniel, a guy who sees right through her distractions, everything starts to change. He doesn't like the way she moves through life so carelessly. She doesn't like how serious he is. And yet, something about him makes her want to try-to be better, to do better. But change isn't easy, and old habits die hard.

In the end, the real question isn't whether she can win him back. It's whether she can face the truth about herself before it's too late. A story of love, loss, and the battle between who we are and who we want to be.
The Bad Boy is Back (Book 2)
(Book 2) *Contains spoilers below* "I needed more closure than what you gave me." I half lied. "It feels like an open wound someone keeps pouring salt on." His expression remained hard and cold. Almost distant. "I don't know what you want from me, Willow. You coming here isn't closing any wounds, it's just opening up old ones." I let out a sigh and rubbed my hands over my face. "I just needed to see you, okay? It's a relief to know you're even alive right now." I was begging myself not to cry. Noah shifted a little and folded his arms against his chest. "I don't know what you want me to say." "Anything is better than nothing." I said as I took a step closer. "I missed you. A lot." He peeked from under the mess of curls falling over his eyes. "You want me to tell you I missed you too? Is that what you're doing here?" I clenched my jaw shut and curled my fingers into fists at my sides. "I don't want anything from you." Scott isn't gone...yet. But he still refuses to let Noah go without harming anyone Noah cares about. It's been nine months since Scott took Noah under his wing and moved away from California. Willow hasn't seen either of them since the night Noah left with the promise to come back. When Willow finds Noah, she didn't expect what she finds. Noah's completely transformed into something she never thought she would see again. Besides the arrogant, obnoxious attitude, came countless tattoos, a ring through his lip, and a new name. With Scott still lingering and Noah's new found attitude, there's bound to be a little trouble. Way more than Willow bargained for. And maybe, just maybe, Scott isn't the real enemy.Complete

SEE RIGHT THROUGH ME
" 'Cause if I know you see me falling, You'll be right there to pick me up" Liyah never meant to fall this fast. She's the shy-but-outgoing type - the kind of girl who laughs things off, bites her tongue, and lets stuff slide just to keep the peace. Communication isn't her strong suit, and standing up for herself never came easy. But when Kayzon walks into her life, everything she thought she knew about protecting her heart gets complicated. Kayzon's got his own story - one written in pain, loss, and walls too high for most people to climb. His past made him hard, quiet, and guarded, but somehow, Liyah gets past the surface. She makes him feel seen again. Safe, even. What starts as late-night conversations and lazy afternoons in her dorm turns into something deeper, something neither of them expected. But when two people carrying their own kind of hurt collide, love doesn't always heal - sometimes, it exposes. Did they move too fast, or did they just find each other at the wrong time?
