Navy Blue Eyes.
{Kellin Quinn *Adoption/Daughter* Story} 'Captivating. There was no other word he could conjure up to describe the pull her eyes commanded. There seemed to be an unspoken law, they demanded your full attention be given to her, but much the same there appeared to be a silent beauty that drew your attention and-whether you wanted to or not-you had to pay her gaze mind. Not that he wished this pull to disappear. In fact, he'd never wanted anything so much as he wanted to hold her stare. In a moment, he knew she'd taken control of him... he saw that he had no more choice in the matter. Not one inch of him wanted to have it any other way. He was under her control, and he understood that could destroy him, yet there was no one whom he wished to destroy him more than the small girl with the navy blue eyes.' In one moment Kellin Quinn knew he couldn't go on without he frail, blue eyed beauty by his side. After Katelynne is diagnosed with breast cancer, Kellin's heart and head are flipped upside down. Despite the world's outlook on the 'Big C', he knew he'd probably live to be an old couple alongside his wife and daughter, but other family members of cancer patients aren't so lucky. Through the tragedy that brings them together, Kellin can't let go of the broken girl who unintentionally saved him in his hour of need. What he comes to realize, though, is that the little girl with the navy blue eyes may need him just as much as he needs her. Warning: RATED PG-13 for strong language, sexual content, gore, etc...

Highschool Sweethearts
Katelyn has been in and out of the foster system since her mother died when she was young. After her father gets put in jail again, she gets sent to live with the Thomas family. The Thomas's are a very well-off family with four boys. Their house is usually the main hangout for the boys and their friends. Kate hasn't ever lived with siblings before, let alone this many boys, so it's a big change for her. Daniel is your typical high school football player; he's got the looks, the muscles, talent, and even the overbearing dad who wants him to go pro. Daniel, however, really couldn't care less about a career in football, he loves the game, but it's his dad's dream for him to go pro, not his own. At least not anymore. He spends most of his free time away from his house and hanging out at either the Thomas or the Copperfield house. He can't wait to go off to college with his friends and get away from his dad and the stupid little town he grew up in. How will things change for them over the next year? This will be a series of 4, but the other books will be spin-offs and can be read as stand-alone books. They will, however, be published in chronological order. Full warning, this book is much shorter than I intend on making the spin-offs. I was planning on writing book two as the first in the series but found myself needing more of a prequel to all three other books, and so I chose to write something from their high school years. Bonus points for giving Daniel a love interest that was more than just a name.Complete
