Everyone has problems. Some deal with it and some live in denial. Princess Skylar Anise Evanson of Valencia, much to her mother, the queen's displeasure, chooses to go with the former. Imperfect, hard headed, self-confident and a lone wolf, she has been her own best friend since the beginning of time. Deemed to be blessed at every aspect of life, what does not meet the eyes is that riches and royalty do not only make one's life perfect. All Sky wishes in life is an ear to listen to her, a shoulder for her to lean on and maybe an arm to hold her when needed. Being the golden boy of a school is not easy, especially if you are forced into the part when all you want is to lead a normal life, without people pestering or watching every move of yours with hawk like precision. All Nathan Thompson wants in life is to finish school and get away, not only from the city he calls as home but from the whole country itself. Home is a place for him where expectations build like wildfire and school is where he needs to act out in order to live up to them. Feeling imprisoned but too scared to act out and break through, Nathan chooses to shoulder it all, living a life filled with lies and fake smiles. And when these two individuals meet, different yet similar in so many aspects, Skylar 'Sky' finds her confidante, a boy who 'just loves listening to her rants' and Nathan 'Nate' finds his one true buddy, a girl who is 'just making sure that he "lives" his life and does not just "exist. Trigger Warning! This book deals with some topics like self-harm, depression and anxiety. The purpose of this book is neither to make anyone uncomfortable nor is it to encourage self-harm. Rather the aim of this book is to show that if given the right kind of care from those around the person and proper professional attention, it is not an impossible battle to win.

Not every blonde is stupid. In the South if you're a beautiful, blonde, blue-eyed girl high expectations are made. Either you're not extremely smart, so you find yourself a suitable husband to take care of you. Or you are smart and you just pretend to be dumb so you find yourself a suitable husband to take care of you. All her life Avery Skinner has been told what to do and how to do it- by everyone. By her mother, the girls she calls friends, the guys in school, teachers, family, even Mark the mailman. Needless to say, she's sick of it. Its time Avery took control of her life or at least get a firm grip on the sucker. She's loved football ever since she was a little girl. Yet she could never play because ladies aren't supposed to do such barbaric things. Especially in the South- unless its a rodeo and you're wearing those ridiculously tight outfits that show you're navel or showing you can hold your liquor. Avery has longed to be on the field, throwing the ball instead of cheering on the team her dad coaches that can't seem to win. Then her best friend Austin forces Avery to and for sometime everyone is fooled. But the truth can only be hidden for so long. The moment the townsfolk of Stonehenge, Alabama learned it was a girl under that helmet, was the moment true colors showed. It hasn't been easy and it won't get any better but Avery is here to play. * Avery is going to face REAL life problems, and not nice people. She's going to deal with sexual harassment, mean words, rude people, pregnancy, injuries, steroids, etc.. In this story I want to exemplify how sexist and cruel humans can be. There will be hard moments, but I want to put it out there because it IS a serious problem. Harsh language and such will be present. You have been warned, don't read it then complain.
