"Whatever happens, we're in it together," he murmured softly. I gulped, feeling the impact of his words. We were bound by law. And though we weren't in love, we were still in a relationship, however dysfunctional it may have been. 
***************************************
The rules seem simple. 
1. Stay married for at least a year. 
2. Live together. 
3. Tell absolutely no one. 
Marriage at seventeen was never in the plan for Evie O'Donnell. But when a desperate situation forces her into the arms, and home, of notorious playboy Nate Keller, the pair have to figure out how to make it work. 
They haven't been friends for years, and the awkwardness of suddenly living together is uncomfortable to say the least. Through love  and loss, Nate and Evie feel the weight of all of their lies. They just have to try not to crack.All Rights Reserved

HONESTLY by sunnybirch

Nicky Peters sets out on an emotional roller coaster when she creates a melody from an old high school journal entry which develops into her debut song for her second album. Her personal and professional life become quickly complicated when she finds herself standing in front of the one person she thought she'd never see again, the same person who unfortunately understands all too well who Nicky's hit song is really about...him. ******** Nicky Peters' rise to fame in country music was fast, being plucked out of obscurity at seventeen after her YouTube videos went viral. After she pens a very personal song from one of her old high school journals called, "Honestly," for her much-anticipated second album, she realizes her feelings will be under a microscope for the whole world to see, including Nate Stanton, her ex-best friend from childhood. He also just happens to be the one person who truly understands the meaning behind her heart-wrenching song. What happens when fate brings her face-to-face with the boy she thought she'd never see again? Nicky quickly realizes airing her emotions out in public via a number-one, hit song can make things complicated fast. As Nate and Nicky reconnect and navigate through their past, truths are revealed, assumptions are at an all-time high, and a publicity nightmare looms which jeopardizes all she's worked so hard for. While Nicky's misfortunes add up, she realizes fame comes with a price. She begins to understand the cold, hard facts, keeping her career intact as country's "it" girl and maintaining a personal life may be more difficult than it sounds, especially when you're living through a public scandal.

Boy meets girl, girl falls in love, blah-blah-blah. Let me be clear with you from the beginning. This is not that kind of story. My name is Cait, and I live in the great city of New York. Okay, so maybe I've only lived here for a week and a half, sue me, but what else am I supposed to say? This strange and beautiful metropolis is my new home, or the closest thing I've probably ever had to a home, and I intend to make the most of my time here. I'm 20 years old, an ex-sophomore in college, and I'm really good at math. Obviously, I've never filled out any kind of bio before. This is my story. It's the kind of story where reality bites, love isn't always what it seems, and maybe - just maybe - everything won't suck in the end. #43 in General Fiction - 12/02/2016 #44 in Teen Fiction - 6/11/2017 _____ © Jandra Sutton. 2016.

Burning Desires by novasler

Serena Karaçay, the secret daughter of Turkey's most powerful mafia leader, Yusuf Karaçay, has always stayed out of the spotlight. But when a lavish gala brings her face-to-face with Lorenzo Moretti, heir to the rival Italian mafia family, everything changes. As the Russian mafia, led by the ruthless Ivanov Petrov, targets Serena, she realizes she needs more than just her father's protection to survive. To stay safe, an arranged marriage is her only option-but to whom? -- "Listen to me, Serena." His voice cracked like a whip, but I wasn't done. "No, you listen to me!" I yelled, stepping closer to him, my face inches from his. "I'm tired, Lorenzo. Tired of this life, tired of this nightmare. I'm tired of you." He stared at me, his chest rising and falling with his heavy breaths. His face was unreadable, a mixture of anger, frustration, and something else I couldn't place. I was losing control. My emotions poured out in a torrent I couldn't stop, my fists pounding against Lorenzo's chest as sobs racked through me. Tears streamed down my face, and my voice cracked with each scream. "Why don't you understand?! I hate this life! I hate all of this!" I yelled, hitting him harder. -- SLOW BURN!!!!!

Our Cliché Arrangement by sarcasticallybleh

Madison Reed. Braden Cross. Two different people. The golden boy and the relaxed cheerleader. No one expected them to get together. One thing brought them together. Their arranged marriage. It comes as a surprise at first but will they find that they have more in common than just being rich and their contract? _______________________________________ "And what's that supposed to mean, Braden?" I asked snappily. "It means you don't don't date or flirt with other boys." He said. "Ok, we may be engaged by contract. That's fine and dandy but you just can't strip me of my right to flirt with cute boys. Deal? Take it or take it." I said. He sighed then came into my personal space. "You, are mine. Only mine." He said. "Ugh, why are you so annoying?" I asked. "And why don't you listen?" He asked then walked away. __________________________________________ Author's Note Hello! This is my first book so take it easy on me ok! Tell me what you like about it. What you hate about it. Ideas for another book. But please. Please. Please keep the negative and nasty comments to yourself. Constructive criticism only, please. Enjoy

Dorkily Ever After by ExtremeGiselle

It's clearly hard to fall in love with someone when you don't know you're already falling. It's harder to fall in love with someone whom you know wouldn't take the chance of falling in love with you back. And it's the hardest to just keep the feeling away, to distance yourself to that certain person you're in love with. ~~*~~ No matter who you are, where you're from and how fucking hot you are... Confessing to that someone you really like would be the hardest. CAUTION: This story slightly includes butt touching, perverting, and hot make outs. Read at your own risk. When their worlds -- the flawed but still perfect world-- collides, memories will be created, Memories will be reminisced and most of all, Memories will be lived. Highest accomplishment (so far) - #288 Teen Fiction

Our star students Emma; the introvert, Matt; the popular basketball jock, Will; the hopeless romantic and Penny; the one who wanted freedom, have to go through this maze in their final year of high school. There are new friendships, relationships, memories and successes, but there are hardships, choices, heartbreaks, misunderstandings and failures that they have to go through as well. There are fake-relationships, some very bad stalking, extreme hangovers, love triangles, a lot of basketball...the list goes on and on. So will they get through this maze and make it the best year of their lives, or will it be a nightmare better-forgotten?
