Her Brother's Best Friend - Aching Hearts Series #2
If asked, baby Emily Robinson would have gleefully said that, her life revolved around two cornerstones: volleyball, Riley. Volleyball was the passion that gave her life. Riley was the "special friend" that fueled said passion and offered an otherwise insecure, shy little girl the means to grow up strong, confident, badass. Professional volleyball was a dream close to becoming true. Riley was reality. The most reassuring one. If asked, Emily would have said, she could not live without those two. That's why when, in a matter of months, she loses both, Emily's life starts spiraling down. The self consciousness about her looks goes from easily containable to fullout war waging deep inside her, menacing to bring her down any minute. So when, four years later, Riley comes back, he finds that his cutely shy Honeybee has turned into a beautiful quasi woman that is inexplicably paralyzed by fears. How can he help her regain the strength she had? And what happens when he starts realizing that indeed, his Honeybee is no longer a child, she's become a dangerously attractive girl. How can he help her fight her demons, without letting his mind and heart stray? He can't fall for the same child he used to babysit ... or can he?

Our families are close, I view her grandfather as my own. The only thing is, I still can't bring myself to say more than a few words to the girl who occupies most of my thoughts. Going into my last year of high school, I needed the chance to have my world shifted by Bailey Connors.

But you if are determined to just do it no matter how many times you fail, you will succeed and everyone who mocked you or demoralized you will come looking for you. This whole story revolves around this one thought. How a college going boy decides to do the things his way and gets the success he deserves in end.Complete
Sk8er Boi (Logan Reese)
Kelsey Rivera hates being a new student. She hates school. And most importantly, she hates people. Growing up, she had a terrible life. Her mother would force her to go to different schools until she got herself kicked out for being bad. She didn't want to take care of her messed up child, and boarding schools were always the best to put Kelsey away where she could forget about her. It was better that way, Kelsey kept telling herself as she grew up. She didn't get close to people because they would always let her down like her mother. That's why she was her mother; she taught Kelsey what not to want in life. And Kelsey was fine with it. Pacific Coast Academy was her last chance. Her mother threatened that if she got into trouble one more time, she would send her away to military school. Kelsey definitely did not want to do that, so she thought about making a difference in her life. Kelsey wasn't going to try anymore, though, because what was the point? Life had dealt her the wrong hand, and she was going to let it kill her. But the people at Pacific Coast Academy were different than others she had met, and there was this annoyingly cute boy names Logan Reese that made her want to stay. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad for her to stay, just to see what PCA had to offer. It wouldn't be that bad if Kelsey did make some friends. It wouldn't be that bad if Kelsey did want a better life for herself. But, how far would she go to find that? She wasn't sure. She was too afraid to find out.Complete

Beautiful, meaningful lines
If my collection inspires even one person, it would make me delighted knowing that it made a difference. I always had a thing for nice quotes. I used to write them even at a young age. Whenever I see a nice line - be it from a book, celebrity or some other unpopular sources, I feel amazed by them, and then lately, I started writing them down somewhere so as not to forget. Now and then a beautiful line would just pop in my mind, and if I don't have the means to write immediately, I would just try to memorize until I put it down. I write quotes anywhere, if I think that I am going to forget. They are just scattered in places so much so that I feel the urge to bring them together. What's better than to bind them in a book? P.S. except the quotes that are from revealations, i.e. the Qur'an and Sunnah, there are always room for errors in human opinions, so I recommend the readers to use their own sense of judgment as well.

I Hate Football Players 2 (under editing)
Finding relationships is easy... Keeping them is the real game. That's what I'm learning in my first one. It's not easy. Our rival schools are an hour apart, my best friend's turning secretive, my parents are controlling, and my brother's still an ass, gearing toward winning the state championship, and still doesn't like my boyfriend, Logan. I get it, they're rivals, and I kinda feel like Logan's team might be better but this season will decide. Being the star rival quarterback's girlfriend brings big rumors and big drama, especially when elements of our pasts resurface - his jaded ex whatevers, and the secrets I thought I'd buried and moved beyond. All of this while I just want to figure out where to go for college and what for. Some relationships will always stand the test of time and distance, while others crumble by the time the high school dust settles. I hope Logan and I are in the former because I'm falling hard for him. Really hard. Forever love hard. Story is ongoing with frequent updates. Please add it to your reading list!
