Olivia Bentley and Marc Howard swore they'd spend the rest of their lives together. For 3 years they stuck together like glitter does to everything it touches. Marc was never happier. Olivia never felt more free.
It took less than an hour for all that to end.
Marc doesn't know what to do without her. And he swears he'll never forget her.
So he decided to write it all down through a collection of short stories and interviews.
This is Marc's book... and Olivia's story.

"She was a shooting star... she was beautiful and bright, everyone knew their greatest wishes could come true if she helped them, but just like a shooting star she was only passing by, and few had the chance to see her." -Marc Howard

The Love We Left Behind
"I could never get her out of my head, no matter how hard I tried. I could never move on with my life. I fought, and I fought, but it was pointless. She was ingrained in my mind and soul, and I despised her for it. Lexi Black was the bane of my existence, and I wasn't going to rest until I ruined hers." After a tragic accident tears them apart, Lexi and Carson become estranged. Having been best friends for almost all their lives doesn't seem to matter to Carson as he leaves her behind without looking back. Struggling with her new reality and unable to move on from the loss that shook her to her core, Lexi turns back to her small town. Caring for a sick mother and working a dead-end job seems to be all that life has in store for her, until he reappears. 7 years later, Carson is back in town, determined to ruin Lexi's life like she destroyed his. Secrets come to light, and confessions threaten to decimate whatever is left of their relationship when Lexi decides that there is no going back. Some mistakes can not be fixed, and hearts can not be unbroken. *A small town, friends to enemies to lovers love story that paints grief through love in a whole different light.*Complete![❝𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐂𝐇'𝐀 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐎𝐌❞ [UNDER RESTRUCTION]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/387952650-256-k456961.jpg)
❝𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐂𝐇'𝐀 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐎𝐌❞ [UNDER RESTRUCTION]
There's always a downside to the fame that shines on you. Amir Johnson knows that all too well. Rising to fame as the youngest MMA fighter, his life has always been about rings, bandages, and blood. Fighting was his life. Fighting was his birthright. But mix that with a touch of arrogance and a hot-headed attitude, and what does that get you? A whole lot of bad press. After his last fight ended with police sirens and a year-long probation, Amir's attitude didn't just stay bad-it got worse. Parties, baby mamas, restaurant fiascos, and rumors of drug abuse became the top headlines under his name. To keep this blazing star from burning out, his team makes a desperate move-they hire Steven Moore, a well-known celebrity handler who's famous for shaping up the messiest stars. Polished, posh, and painfully straightforward, Steven isn't here to play. He's here to fix Amir's mess, no matter how much they hate each other. But one fateful, booze-fueled night changes everything. Steven wakes up in unfamiliar sheets, in a room that isn't his, next to someone who definitely isn't his wife, and Amir next to someone who isn't his crazy baby mama or a random cheap slut he bought... Now, as secrets pile up and tempers flare, both men find themselves in a dangerous game of keeping the public-and their own feelings-under control. How much can they take before everything blows up in their faces? *** OUT NOW: DD/MM/YY 01/03/25 SCHEDULE: Bi-weekly every Saturday *** OTHER TAGS: #funnymoments #celebritymentions #girlxgirl #babymamas #badparenting #minorcharacterdeath #gunviolence #threapysessions #mxmxm #possiblelovetrinagle #daddyissues #mommyissues #parentissuesoveral #seriouslytheseguysareprettymessedup #TOUCH'ASTARDOM
Perfect Strangers
Follow my Instagram for any updates and if you have any questions: @nikki_k123 Alex has been living the same life, with the same routine, repeating it every day. Every day is the same. The one thing she does look forward to is going to cafe de l'amour every morning on her way to school, where she sits and writes, all while seeing Carter Reed. The most popular boy at school who, surprisingly, prefers the solitary life. They go to the same cafe every day, sit at the same tables every day, and notice each other every day, yet are strangers who have never uttered a word to one another. And strangers they shall remain. Perfect strangers. But that's about to change. . . . . . I watched as he kept his eyes trained on the notebook in front of him where he aimlessly drew spirals and coils that surrounded each other, trapped each other, and suffocated each other. My eyes traced the movement of his pen, following each line he drew onto the paper. "Your tea." I snapped out of my trance and looked up, thanking Katy before she went back to the counter. I turned back and caught him looking at me. I expected him to look away and continue acting like I don't exist. Like he's always done and so have I. What I didn't expect was for him to walk right over and sit with me. "Hi, I'm Carter." PSA: This story is inspired by the Wattpad novel 'Caffeine' by @meddlingkids ALL RIGHTS RESERVEDComplete

I sneered up at him with distaste, wanting to wrap my fingers around his neck and strangle that smirk off of him. He brushed my golden hair from my face, his long, slender fingers sparking electricity in my skin, making my knees wobble together. "Will you ever, forgive me?" he whispered huskily, his eyes intently staring into mine. His face was only mere inches from me. I just needed to reach out a little further to kiss him... "Yeah. Over my dead body." I snapped, before throwing my arms out forcefully, shoving my hands into his chest, pushing him from me. -*-*-*- He, is Carter Williams. I, am Lacey Adams. We were once, inseparable. The 'Golden Couple'. The unbreakable best friends, that everybody envied. Nothing could get between us. A part from being tighter than white on rice, we updated our status from friends to being in a relationship, frequently. We were neighbours, which meant our families were all close and even co-owned houses around our town. This, all is, until the day of my sixteenth birthday. Everything changed. The loving relationship we shared, was severed and torn apart. I couldn't hardly stand to look at him any more, without spitting fire that is. Every day is torture being around him. He was in all my classes at school and the window in my room was even directly aligned with his. So, what happens? My mother's mum gets sick, so dad and her fly out. Just them. Leaving me to stay with Carter and his parents, who are never home. We would be alone. In one house. Under the same roof. If I was insane before, I have no idea what I am now. © 2016 by LaurenJ22.

"No. You didn't do anything." "Why?" I dare not let a single tear slide out. I'm not gonna look weak in front of him. He looked up at the sky for a moment then looked back at me. "I'm... I'm sorry."
