Caia Steele is an average teenager with a dysfunctional family, or a lack thereof. Her mother had run away, her sister had successfully ascended to heaven and her father... well her father, she wasn't quite sure what he did. Naturally, she was left alone on most days to fend off the world. One night, two juvenile delinquents, one alive and one not quite, sneak into her room and steal away life as she knows it. They are her portal to a whole new world (still on Earth) where she stumbles upon dark secrets and horrifying discoveries... and the love of her life. But in a world of thorny roses, she was bound to get hurt.All Rights Reserved

The Sky is Everywhere by Bella_Higgin

People like Caia aren't supposed to exist. Ever since England passed the Firstborn Act, families are only allowed one child, and illegally born Seconds, like Caia, are property of the government. Raised her whole life in the Control Centre and knowing little of the outside world, Caia's only hope for a better future is to excel in the Trials, a mysterious test that all Seconds must take when they turn sixteen. But when Caia meets Roan, a boy from the outside, she learns that the Trials may not be what she thought. Roan wants to topple the CC and set Seconds free, but he needs help. The more she starts to fall for him, and the closer they get to the truth, the more Caia realises that she may have to risk everything to be free. Even her life.

The Prophecy by lspearson

Ariella's biggest desire in life has always been such a simple one. She wants to be 'normal.' Unfortunately, that one simple wish has never been within her grasp. Coming from a long line of witches is bad enough, but she's even more different than the rest of her family. The fact that no one will give her any answers to why she's so different doesn't help matters. Her entire existence is shrouded in secrets that everyone around her refuses to reveal. After a family tragedy, she moves to a new town, and she gets her first chance to at least pretend to be 'normal.' For the first time, she's allowed to leave the house and go to an actual school. She makes friends, and she develops her first crush, that's quickly followed by her second. She's finally living the normal teenage life she'd dreamed of, but it doesn't last. Everything she believed about herself and the world around her is changed in an instant. Family secrets come to light one after another, turning her entire world upside down in the process. She quickly realizes that sometimes ignorance really is bliss, and maybe she didn't really want to know the answers to the questions she'd always asked, especially when one of these truths causes people close to her to turn their backs on her without hesitation. Before she can even recover from the shock, she's thrust into a war that she hadn't even known existed. Loyalties will be tested. She'll have to choose sides between all of the people she's come to care about. Will she stand with her family, her new friends, or the two boys who both hold a piece of her heart? One thing is for sure. She'll have to let go of her dream of 'normal.'

She believes in the beauty of love but keeps her heart guarded, choosing her studies and future over the risk of heartbreak. When their worlds collide, the sparks between them are undeniable. For the first time, Alexander is drawn to something he can't control, and Yana finds herself questioning the walls she's carefully built. But just as they begin to discover the magic of love, a devastating mistake forces them apart, leaving their hearts shattered and paths divided. Years pass, but the memory of what they shared lingers. As fate brings them back together, they must face old wounds, uncover the truth, and decide if love is worth the risk. Because sometimes, no matter how far life takes you, true love will always guide you back to where you belong. This is a story about love, trust, mistakes, revenge, and forgiveness.

They are both forced to work together, to help each other take down the rebels but how when they both despise each other with every fibre of their being?

"I only have one request if you're going to keep me in suspense all day long." "What's that?" The movement of her lips drew his eyes down. "Let me kiss you again?"
