It's senior year of high school, and Adana Deligna just moved towns... again. She's determined that this time was going to be different. she wants to live a normal life, and stay under the radar. Unfortunately for her, Schanliy High is really not making that easy for her...it's right smack in the middle of a rich neighborhood, and you know what that means; Schanily High is a playground for the mean, snobby bullies of Virginia. Somehow, Adana gets the attention of The Liberators, a mysterious group of boys with a secret. Adana is in way over her head- or is she? There's a lot about her that doesn't make sense; and a group of over dramatic, violent teens have nothing on this new girl...
Sorry if it offends, but whatever is in this book, it's the character saying it, NOT ME! Please remember that. It can also get pretty dark at times- just to forewarn!

Braxton Boy
Was it fate that brought Addilynne to the little sea side town (or just a little, old book store). Whatever it was, her life was forever changed when she met Braxton, the town bad boy. Despite his raging temper, Addilynne feels herself being drawn to him. But when his troubled past comes back to haunt them (in the form of the local gang, The Joe Boys), Addilynne will find herself face to face with facts she may not be willing to accept. Will Brax's past be the thing to tear them apart...or bring them closer together? ----------------------------------------------------------------- Excerpt from chapter 4: "Help me?" He says and closes the space between us. He grabs onto my arm. My breath catches and I glance down at his surprisingly gentle fingers. "Addilynne, you couldn't have helped me. The Joe Boys wouldn't have eased up and wouldn't have cared that you're a girl. They would have thrown you up against the wall and beaten you right along side me." He lets his hand slide the rest of the way down my arm, leaving a trail of fire behind it. He completely lets go and softens his voice with his next words, "If the Joe Boys are going to hurt anyone in this town, it shouldn't be you. It deserves to be me." --------------------------------------------- Book Cover Art by YourBestNightmare (check her out-she's very talented)Complete

Violet Ferrari is at breaking point. Moving out of home was supposed to fix her problems, not exacerbate them.

Rio Valenti has fought his whole life to make it to this point. The start of his professional basketball career is just around the corner. He can't lose focus now, not with his criminal ties hanging over his head. He's on the edge. One misstep, and it's over for him. The rainy college town should have been their safe haven - the wetlands surrounding it a moat separating them from their pasts. The two meet in their freshmen year, with little in common but their social circles. Violet spends her days numb - hiding from the pain in any way she can. Rio runs from his. He's out from dawn to dusk, if not on the court, then scrounging up money for food or finding somewhere to sleep other than his car. What divides them most... is hope. Rio has it. Violet doesn't.Complete

The Wolf ✔
DIABOLIC SERIES 2 This story is not so simply about a girl who hides from loneliness in books and a boy who wants to show her there's more to life than what's between the pages. Having 'friends' isn't something that Eliza Wolf has really experienced, at least not in the way her peers have. There's passing relationships in school, people she finds funny, but actual friends? Maybe she just wasn't supposed to have them. She had to learn to pass her time with other things, books, talking to her brother, drawing. At least Elle wasn't so lonely when she was reading about someone else's life. Something that Asher Hart didn't think was all too healthy. The nice boy, true to his nature, was sweet and quiet in his reserve. Though he broke no rules- -that he'd get caught for anyway- -he was used as a scapegoat one too many times, and now his inability to stand up for himself, he's attracted the attention of the most intimidatingly attractive girl around. A boy Eliza knew she'd stand up for, even against the people that have terrorized her in the past. That's without knowing just how capable Asher is when it comes to defending others. *** "Did you know," Asher begins, frowning at the way Eliza picked at her shirt -something she often did before putting on her jacket. "If you could see yourself through my eyes, you'd never feel insecure again." Elle raises an eyebrow, "And who said I was insecure in the first place?"Complete
Boo, Inc.
Welcome to Boo, Inc....Have you ever created a prosthetic head so convincing that you could chop it off in an Insta Live Stream, gaining a thousand followers overnight and a call to the cops? Have you ever dressed up as monsters to scare the living daylights out of a cheating boyfriend, all for a hundred dollars and a flood of social media hits? Have you ever stabbed someone to death for fun and dumped their body in the LA river? It all started with two kids named Boo. Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Boo-Z, short for Boo Alice Zook, but you can call me Boozy. High school in Cali was a wild ride, going from being a hotshot macro-influencer dancing in the streets to living in a wheelchair after a brutal hit and run. But my sexy-psycho-quasi-boyfriend, Boo Alexander, isn't ready to let me leave the industry just yet. Something's not quite right in my head, but Boo always has a solution for me. A caffeine cleanse, a line of coke, shots of apple cider vinegar with herbal tea - anything to keep my mind focused. I've basically hit the Sadomasochistic Jackpot. If I take a spin around the block in my wheelchair and down a six-pack, my passion for killing will reignite. Especially now that we're getting paid for it. Content warning: this story references themes that readers might find triggering, including drug use and sexual assault.Complete

Splintered Illusion
BEWARE: the writing in this is from when I was younger, and is extremely cringey and cliche. I advise you not to read this because the writing in this is no longer a representation of my writing, and I think reflects very poorly on me. Instead, I'd love it if you tried out my newer book, which is in my opinion, much better than this. Just a suggestion, but either way, it's your choice. You've been warned. They strived to make their love perfect. To make their love into an illusion of what could've been perfection. But they were beaten and bruised. And so was their love.
