Selena's life is in shambles.
Isolated by most of her family, witnessing a lifelong friendship crumbling before her eyes, and being torn apart from the boy she fell so idiotically in love with, she doesn't see how things could get much worse.
But once again, the universe finds uncanny enjoyment in proving her wrong.
On the other end of the spectrum, Conner's not doing much better.
Like Selena, his family is completely against Conner and his girlfriend's entire relationship. The only difference being, his family is on the side against him. And as if he wasn't unlucky enough, Selena's handsome and foreign almost-ex-boyfriend picked the perfect time to come and pay them a visit.
With more than ever on the line, what started out as harmless fun has morphed into something entirely more heartbreaking.
Even best friends have their issues sometimes, right?

Hades
~"You don't know me." I snap. "Sure, I don't. We've only spent more than half of our lives together. But I don't know you. Like at all, I don't." He says sarcastically, making me stand up from my chair and stand in front of him with crossed arms. He keeps seated on my bed, looking just as angry as myself. I study his face for a really short second and internally groan. Puberty did really hit him good. ~ · Why would Hades think that after two years of not seeing Emma and not answering her calls, she would still be the same? How could he expect her to still be that weak little girl that depended on him? No, Emma has changed into somebody he has yet to discover. Two years ago, these two had their biggest fight. Best friends should get over it and move on, right? But what if there was no way they could talk it out, due to an unpleasant misunderstanding? Two years of not hearing shit from each other. Two years of being separated...and that after a bad argument. Both too stubborn to talk about it. But wouldn't it be so easy to finally sit down and talk? Even after what they did at Julie's first party of the new school year? I mean, they could still act like it didn't happen, since they have both been drunk. Yet they remember and decide it would be best to just avoid each other. Well, they seem to do a really bad job.Complete
The Girl who Lived (Complete)
This isn't a story about suicide. This isn't a story about depression. This is a story of the girl who lived. At first this may seem like your typical teen love story. You know the one, where the girl falls in love with the guy next door, she is witty and he is just plain cocky. See first hand, the events that transpired to change Alex from being the innocent 16 year old who falls in love with her neighbour to the heartbroken 18 year old who somehow despite it all manages to find happiness again. Expect tears, heartbreak and laughter. _____________ It's a long book but its covering a lot of time hence why. Plus a lot of things happen, all very crazy. I rewrote this book after years so I know the feedback I got when I first published it. I promise its worth it. Keep with it. PS The chapters with the '*' are my personal faves in which big things happen.Complete

Best-Friends With Benefits (Under Reconstruction)
Conner Rogers: Hot, athletic, and popular, with an ego the size of the Empire State Building. Selena Rider: Clumsy, uncoordinated-and-most-definitely-not-athletic, and sarcastic, with an unfortunate affinity for making self destructive life decisions. Against all odds, Selena and Conner have remained best friends longer than either can even recall, joined at the hip and constantly searching for adventure. Or trouble. Or both. Until puberty kicks in, and BAM!, they go from being best friends for life, to best friends with benefits. No one else knows, for now anyways, and keeping it that way will prove more of a challenge than expected. The two will have to deal with the fact, that the things they want, are sometimes the things that they never expected to want. There's a test of devotion and friendship approaching them, and no one is certain that they will make it out with their hearts in one piece. After all, best friends are forever. Right? UNDER MASSIVE CONSTRUCTION! So if things aren't making any sense, it's because I've been going back and editing everything XDComplete
To Capture A Heart ✔
*She wasn't looking for love - just snacks and a nap. But then he smiled...* ~True love? Unexpected. Emotional growth? Unwanted. Drama? Inevitable.~ Veronica D'Costa isn't exactly the main character type just - a regular teen: emotionally avoidant, chronically sarcastic, and fully committed to winging her way through life, with her loyal (and mildly chaotic) friend group. One night. One betrayal. That changed everything. Now Veronica's pretending, deflecting, and power-napping her way through emotions. But when a certain boy - golden-eyed, infuriatingly kind, and way too observant - starts asking the right questions, she'll have to do the one thing she's avoided all year: feel. Because surviving senior year means more than just acing math or mastering beer pong - it means facing what broke her, before she lets it define her. She's growing up. She's falling in love. And she might just be the main character after all. Messy, meaningful, and mildly chaotic - this is the year everything changes. Even her. P.S.- This isn't a fairy tale. It's a slightly sarcastic coming-of-age crisis.Complete

Young, Wild and Married
Every woman's fantasy is to be married with someone they love someday. Most women are excited and ecstatic when planning their marriage ceremony with their husband to be. I have watched a lot of films, read a lot of romance books and seen real life wedding ceremonies and most of the brides are happy during the day of their wedding. Would you blame me for not being like them today-my wedding day? ** Being caught in bed naked with someone after going to a party is so not good especially if the one who caught you was your overly protective and conservative parents. What makes it worse is that the person naked next to you is one of your best bud who happens to be the son of your mother's best friend. One night, one party, one mistake turned their life upside down. ©2013-2016, All rights reserved --- WARNING: This story may contain inappropriate language and scenes for young readers.

The Sweet Side of The Bad Boy.
Selena didn't know love, she knew nothing of it. She was almost like a balloon being held against a very sharp, dangerous object. You can see where she's caving in, yet she doesn't explode until you've driven it straight through. She relates completely, because of the pressure, the relationship.. because of everything. Unfortunately, she couldn't do anything about it, or he would've done something to her. Now, Selena knows love. But, from someone she never expected. Zero Cooper. He hated the attention that you couldn't help paying him. He looked like your typical bad boy. Lethal. Misunderstood. Sinfully good looking. But, he was unlike anyone you've ever encountered. Our Selena was absolutely terrified of him, just as anyone with good sense was. So, imagine her surprise when no matter what they do to avoid it, their paths keep crossing, their opposites kept attracting. There was only one explanation for it, really.Complete
