3 girls.... different paths. 1 man..... 1 painting.
Gavin, the arrogant playboy who always has his way finds a mysterious painting online. His quest leads him to Olympia - the principled daring no nonsense lady - who denies him of the painting.
Gavin had never met a woman who stood up to him so resolutely, Olympia had never met someone who got under her skin so much she wanted to slap him. As a friendship quietly develops, secrets become revealed, betrayals occur and the frailties of human existence come to light.
On the backdrop of these are Stella and Harmony. Olympia's friends who help her navigate her love life and provide a listening ear to her many troubles. As her friendship with Gavin buds, her friendship with her best friends become threatened. And she has to learn that maybe life is not always black and white.
Join Gavin and Olympia as they navigate the highs and lows of adulthood, friendships and love. All under the gaze of The Painting.

Lost In The Fray
Nia Evans feels as though her kidney disease is ruining every aspect of her life. In particular, her last year of school. So, rather than return to the whispers full of lies that suffocate her, she opts to resit her final year at a different school. Where, she hopes, her disease won't consume her so she can pretend to be just like everyone else and get past the resentment she hides from her dad. But on her first day, her photo is taken by the one boy who will ruin her chances to blend in. All Milo Thompson has ever wanted to do is swim. As a child, the Olympics was his dream. But now, he understands his dreams were unrealistic. Caught between his parents' abusive relationship, he's left to look after his eight-year-old sister. Afraid of exposing weakness, he hides behind a reputation that no longer belongs to him. All at the expense of the future he still dreams of. When they meet and find art as a common ground, they open up to each other more than they ever intended through their work. Milo learns to express his true emotions in more than just his drawings. And Nia discovers that perhaps there is more to life than her disease. But as their attraction for one another becomes impossible to ignore, they both hide behind their insecurities, unwilling to accept what the other is so desperate for them to see, their self-worth.Concluída

Crossroads
"You make me want to do things to you." He mumbles, his brown eyes never straying from mine. "What?" I whisper, nervous yet at the same time my heart pounds with excitement and anticipation. "Do you want to know what kind of things?" His low tone matches mine as he brings his face closer and I find myself robbed of speech due to our proximity. Taking my silence as his sign, he continues to lean closer. His lips caress my ear as he says "Things like this." Suddenly I feel something wet and thick being dumped onto my hair, soon the liquid drips down onto my shirt. Is that paint? Blue paint proceeds to slide down onto my shirt and my eyes widen when I hear Caleb howling with laughter. "Caleb fucking Carter!" I bellow and before I know it he breaks into a run, still laughing. ________________ Highest Rankings #1 - projectbadassgirls #1 - humor #8 - badboyConcluída
Lightweight. | ✔
[UNEDITED STORY] "If you're like me, then when you fall...you fall hard, and its almost impossible to get back up." I admitted shamefully, refusing to meet his beautiful eyes. "Maybe the problem isn't about falling Lyla," he says softly, and his long fingers tilted my head upwards. My eyes met his intensely. "Its about who catches you when you fall." He declares... *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Lyla Denver was known to be a 'Lightweight' to everyone she knows. Her presence never mattered, her influence to others were basically nonexistent. So, she stayed alone, in her comfort zone. All she had was herself and her countless set of painted art, which she sold to an art gallery in New York anonymously. That changed when Kyle Andrews, the heir to that particular art gallery found out her identity, packed his bags and barreled into her life, carrying way more than just 'lightweight' with him.

The boy who once protected her has become cold, distant, and impossible to read. If he hates her, Lilah's determined to hate him right back. But the more secrets unravel, the harder it becomes to ignore the truth: the line between love and hate is paper-thin. And Jackson is still carrying the one secret that could destroy everything-especially her heart. AWARDS: #1 (out of 45.8k!) for #angstwithhappyending #1 (out of 1.62k) for #badboynextdoor
