Leah Mercer is West Mount's Bad Girl. 

She gets into fights - sometimes for money - she swears worse than most sailors; she skips out on school, and spends most of her days recovering from the previous night's drinking escapades. 

Leah, however, is observant, knowing most of everyone's dirty laundry in West Mount. But unlike most people, she doesn't Lord it over you, not unless she's backed into a corner.

So when her own little secret is uncovered by West Mounts Golden Boy, Leah will go to many lengths to keep him from uncovering the rest of the Nitty Gritty story behind who she really is.

So with secrets on the line, drama ready to unfold, a player, gossip, fighter and a mysterious bad boy in the mix. Will anyone be able to crack her heart of stone, or will Leah Always be the Bad Girl?

Playing Heart Games by YemiEverest

Violet is good. Axel is not. When Violet's mom gets married and Violet is tossed into upper-class society, she stays positive. Until her boyfriend cheats on her with her stepsister. Then hot, tattooed bad boy Axel offers something even goody-two-shoes Violet can't refuse: Revenge. * Axel is the perfect formula for a bad boy: a charming, smoking hot player with a screwed up family, a disregard for education and a tendency towards rebellion. His reputation is almost perfect. All he needs to do is corrupt a good girl. At least, that's the excuse he gives himself when he offers to help good-to-the-bone Violet. But she just might corrupt him. And he just might let her. * © Yemi Everest. All Rights Reserved. Posted: 17/09/2017 - 12/08/2018 // (Completed) Cover created by @flashingallen

Don't Fall in Love With Me by MoonlitGrace

"Who are you exactly?!" I growled angrily. She tried to free herself from my grasp, but I pinned her to the wall. She glared at me angrily as she kept pushing me. "I don't fucking need to tell you anything!" She spat. "I am not leaving until you tell me!" I whispered angrily as I leaned in closer. I felt her stiffening up, and as I felt she will reveal, instead she smirked as she whispered in my ear, "You don't want to do something Aiden, which you might regret later!" I backed up at her words as she walked away, not turning around once. "Who are you...?" I mumbled to myself. ******************************************************** Moving away from home, set to begin his new life with his childhood bff in the New York City, Aiden Blake was more than ready for this. Just a glance at his Greek god body, a whisper of his husky voice with his charming and attracting charisma; he already had all the girls falling for him at an instant. All but one.

Follow their ride filled with smirks and eye rolls, tragedy and a dash of comedy, the secrets buried within and mysteries hidden. A hidden girl and a determined guy... of course, with a sprinkle of romance!

Two Gangs and a Golden Girl by HollyShmit

"I didn't ask to be in the middle of your ego-battle," I grumble. Blake pins me to my locker, hands resting on either side of my head. "Well, you got it in anyway, Darling," he whispers. His face is inches away from mine and damn me for licking my lips. I am NOT falling for these guys. And then, at the corner of my eye I spot Owen and his gang approaching. Well, that's just great. *** The West and East gang of Tygerwell have been at each other's throats since the dawn of time. And the two leaders of these gangs want to end the fight, once and for all. But fighting with fists is easy. Fighting with wit and charm, is a whole other ball game. Blake. West-side gang leader. Leather jacket and killer glare. Don't talk back. Owen. East-side gang leader. Fancy coat and toxic stare. Don't resist. And in comes Amber. Hair of gold and oceans in her eyes. Has too much sass for her own good and always, ALWAYS, manages to get into the middle of trouble. But these boys have no idea who they're really dealing with. And when Amber descovers she knows a little too much when it comes to guns and fighting, she has to question everything she thought she knew about herself. Three can play this game. *** "Let's settle this. You got rejected, I got rejected. It's only fair that the fate of the gangs be on who gets the girl first." "That sounds rather good, Rhodes. I'll take that bet on the golden girl." *** COMPLETED FICTION AWARDS: Best new story and best new account Highest ranking in Teen Fiction: #1 on 25/06/2018

With The Bad Boy ✔ by xqueenrosie

"I wouldn't mind watching you. Maybe we could tan together this summer." He suggested. "Without having tan lines." I could feel the smirk playing on his lips. I lightly slapped his chest. "Don't ruin my mood with your cockiness." "I think I made it a lot better." "Well, keep going and you'll have to deal with your boner yourself." I teased. "Why does it always come back to my boner?" He asked with a smile playing on his lips. "Because it's just so huge." I said absentmindedly. "Is it now?" He raised a brow at me. I stripped myself away from him and pouted as I folded my arms across my chest. "That's not what I was supposed to say." "Hmm," He nodded. "What were you supposed to say then?" "That it's just as annoying as you." I laughed. SUMMARY: After the death of her father, Blake moves in with her estranged mother and twin sister. Coping with her father's death was one thing and being involved in dirty work is another. Add a bad boy to fall for on her plate and things can't be more messed up. She tries to start a new life but ghosts from her past just aren't ready to leave her. Question is, can she make it through and have a happy ending or not? Give it a few chapters, nobody gets the hang of writing their first book immediately. It gets better story wise and writing wise, I promise. HIGHEST RANKING #1
