"What year is it?"
"1955."
"Thank you."
I turned around, my fears confirmed. I understood why the world seemed so different now. So hostile towards me for no reason.
I was black. I was a girl. I was in rags.
And it was 1955.

Evangeline Rose Jasper only knew life inside her house. The only people she knew were her parents. Being diagnosed with dependent personality disorder at a young age, Evangeline always needed to be around someone she trusted, and that was her parents. They kept her from the world, afraid of what people may think of her. Evangeline was happy with her life, unaware of what things were like on the outside. In one night, she lost everything. A fatal car accident left Evangeline with no one. Forced to move in with grandparents that want nothing to do with her, Evangeline is forced to go to public school for the first time. Kai Matsushima hates everyone. Years of isolating himself paired with a misunderstanding in middle school means no one talks to Kai at school. If anyone talked to him, he would snap at them. But, when Evangeline taps on his shoulder and asks him to move so she can get to his locker, he can't help but treat the girl with tears in her eyes before her first day has even begun, with kindness. And just like that, two people with no one have each other.Concluida
How to Lose your Best Friend
A cliche plot that got disturbed when the supporting characters became far more important to the plot than the main ones. I've never had anyone tell me that I could do anything more in life than exist. The sound of someone believing in you shouldn't be something new to your ears. It should be something you hear on a regular basis that keeps you going throughout the day. It's hard to believe that I could ever accomplish anything after failure seemed to be imprinted on my forehead.-PJ Eagle sees me as someone who's there for her when she needs advice about a boy. She doesn't see me as the boy she needs advice about. I've watched her go through everything. Her first boyfriend, her first breakup, her first kiss, her first high school party, and everything in between. I didn't mind watching her go through everything but I wanted to be something to her. I wanted to be more than her best friend. If I'm being honest I wanted to date her but I knew it'd never happen. -Blair WARNING: This book mentions triggering topics such as assault, abuse, depression, and other similar topics. If you are sensitive to the mention of these topics this story may not be for you.Concluida
You, And Only You(BWWM)✔
"So, you don't care that we are so different?" I ask him, his face inches apart from mine. "Does it bother you?" He asks back in his husky voice. "Not at all," I reply. "Okay then," he says bringing his face closer and kissing me. Marie-Anne and Dylan are from two different worlds, but fate brought them together. With their differences: he is rich, she is poor, he is white, she is black and with his mother not afraid to do anything to ruin their relationship it seems like the whole world is against them. Will they fight the world together or will they eventually realize that the world is right? And yes, it's a little cliché, but it has twists and turns that you would have never expected. This book is based on my imagination, please do not copy it. Cover by: Me❤Concluida![No Place For Me | [boyxboy]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/181466534-256-k47105.jpg)

Strength and Sensuality [Completed]
A modern Pride and Prejudice story. Only sexier. Mira is a refugee, starting a new life far from home. She has to deal with her troubled past, her son, and her enigmatic boss, while her only weapon is her killer sense of humor. It's a slow-building love-hate story, with a strong female lead; two control freak lawyers, fighting for dominance, in denial of their feelings; an alpha discovering his submissive side; lots of humor and humanism. ~73K words ~~~ Warnings: - Mild language. Characters talk like white-collar workers usually do in real life. - Chapter 43 has mild sexual content. It isn't very graphic, it's emotional, rather, but if you don't want to read about it, just skip it. It won't affect the story. ~~~ Featured: - WP Romance's Read Together and Head Over Heels reading list - WP ChickLit and Women's Fiction reading list - WP New Adult's Romance reading list - WP Adult Fiction reading list - WP Classic Authors Twisting Austen's Magical Moments reading list - WP Retold reading list ~~~ Reviews: "You have a lot of literary elements going for you: your style is chock full of subtext, humor, and intelligence.

It has the ability to convey the emotions stirred within the characters to the depth of readers heart!" The Graphomania Awards "I am beyond impressed with this work.

The Dream Awards "Some books lead with suspense and cliffhangers that even if you don't want to continue the book you do so just to sate your curiosity. But then a rare gem like this comes along and without any cheap tricks it pulls in, you just continue and keep reading it and you may not even know when you reach the end."
