"Fifteen is when I first laid eyes on him.
He had a boyish charm to him, and his eyes were littered with specks of insurgence and leniency. He's the opposite of me; I was bogged down with a torrid family history filled with instability and a need for perfection. I was a straight A student, and he was barely getting by. He was the town's resident bad boy. I was the girl scrambling to pick up the pieces."
When pain is hidden behind perfection, insanity follows.
Angela is a brilliant real estate agent in the big apple, who is running away from a troubled past. Plagued by mental illness, neglectful parenting, a miscarriage, and a failed relationship, she ran. Here she finds a life full of perfection and love until the father of her stillborn child comes to town - the almost family that Angela's fiancee knows nothing about. What happens when every dark crevice that she has seemingly buried comes out to play?

Something There
'"Can you spread your legs a little farther for me, baby?" he asks me, his voice a low whisper. I nod, doing exactly as I'm told, and he bites down on his lower lip.

His eyes meet mine and I have to let out a shaky breath, holding on tight to him to keep myself stable. "Yes or no?" he asks me quietly, and I nod frantically.' 🌸🌸🌸 Lexi Brooks' love life was suddenly flipped upside down when she was kissed by Bryce Bradshaw the day before he mysteriously moved away.
