Worth the Risk by KateRavenaw

August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))

As gossip burns through the halls, Dayana's bond with Ethan, the boy who once made her heart race, falls apart. Ethan's coldness wounds her deeper than the whispers ever could, especially when he confirms his relationship with Catherine, the girl who's always envied Dayana's quiet grace. But behind the comfort of Louise's arms lies something darker. His gentle touch hides obsession. His comfort masks a stolen truth. For Louise isn't just her friend he's the reason Dayana can't remember her past, the reason Ethan's love feels distant and strange. Years ago, he took everything from Ethan their childhood memories, their engagement, their bond and replaced it with his own false warmth. Now, even as Dayana weeps in his arms, she doesn't know she's being held by the very person who destroyed the life she was meant to have. And Ethan? He burns in silence. He knows the truth and the truth bleeds every time he looks at her. But with Dayana's heart wrapped in lies, his only choice is to protect her... even if it means letting her go.

You're All I Need (Complete) by deira_marie

Hayden and Darin have been best friends practically their whole lives. Ever since Hayden's dad was arrested she had been friends with Darin. She was sitting in the corner of the classroom crying when Darin walked over to her. He didn't say anything, he just wraps her in a hug & whispers in her ear that he is sorry. That's how it all started. 9 years later they are still inseparable. It's just a normal day. Tragedy strikes & they are gone in a blink of an eye. Can Hayden save Darin? Is everything lost? What happens when heartbreak, betrayal, & tragedy push them both over the edge? Will they fall in love or lash out & attack the things they care for most? When the inevitable happens will it push them closer or farther away? **Just a warning** This was the first book I've ever written. It's very cliche. Not a terrible book, but not great. The second is way better. This one is however a key part of Hayden's story so I recommend you read it before the sequel. Also please vote & comment!

Runaway Train (Preview) by LiAWake

It's easy to run from your problems, but they inevitably catch up. Freedom. Adventure. No Restrictions. From birth, the human mind is tethered to these ideals. Threatening to run away as a kid to wanting to travel the world as an adult. It takes years to get a taste of these things, and when it finally comes, it's short-lived. Hayden, a fresh high school graduate with an itch for photography, something that wasn't mutually accepted by his mother. She always compared him to his military-serving older brother, Jack, who had set the standards of what was to be expected. In a last resort attempt, Hayden has to make the most significant choice of his life and does what he always threatened to do as a kid. Run away. With the help of a misfit-like individual, Hayden goes on an adventure of a lifetime. While unaware that his past is catching up to him. He'd inevitably have to decide how he wanted to live out the rest of his days, either as an office prisoner or a runaway.

The Photo Project (#Wattys2014) by KittyKatx3

"I'm scared" I whisper as a tear trails down my cheek. Hayden's eyes soften as he stares down at me. He pulls me into his chest, resting his head on mine as he rubs small circles along my back. "Don't be scared. Don't you dare ever be scared. There's no reason for it. I'm not gonna let anything happen to you." He sighs out, voice raspy. ~~~~~~~ Isobel Loving and Hayden Arcane are two different people. But as you know, opposites attract. When they get paired up for a photography project, Isobel doesn't know how she's going to get the mysterious boy to open up to her. But Who would want to tell someone about a broken family in a broken home? Who would want to tell anyone that they fight everyday to keep themselves sane?..Who would want to tell someone that they don't feel the need to live any longer? Not Hayden Arcane. He would never be caught spilling his emotions out. And who would want to tell someone about a dad who didn't want his daughter? Who would want to tell someone about a boyfriend who felt the need to tear you apart, piece by piece? They have more in common than they think. All Rights Reserved ©

Starving for love by txnx13

Zoe Adam was a master at pretending. At eighteen, she'd perfected the art of silence, smiling when expected, nodding at the right moments, keeping her secrets tucked away in her heart. It was safer that way. With three siblings, a chaotic dysfunctional Latin household, and parents who wore kindness like a mask, Zoe learned early that love could sting just as easily as it could soothe. Her mother could call her mi vida in one breath, then leave bruises seen and unseen in the next. Her father? He floated in and out, too wrapped in his own storms to notice the ones he left behind. None knew anything. her sisters who witnessed everything but didn't say anything, had their own shields. Not her brother, who tried to be the hero but never saw what needed saving. Zoe kept everything locked inside her feelings, her loneliness, her hunger, her ache, her need until even she forgot what it felt like to be full. Then came Hayden Reid. Nineteen, half-Italian and Puerto Rican, . He moved to London that summer, taking the flat right next door. To most, he was just the new guy with the sharp jaw, quiet hazel eyes, and that permanent don't-get-too-close look. But to Zoe, he was more than that. He was her brother's best friend. The boy who used to tease her when they were kids visiting Italy. The one who disappeared after his parents split and reappeared years later with more muscle, and a haunted look she couldn't stop staring at. Hayden had his own shadows. His past was littered with broken things promises, people, places he no longer called home. Coming back to London was supposed to be a reset, not a reunion. But fate had other plans for him. Now, he lives just a few steps from Zoe's window. Too close to ignore, too far to touch. And despite the years, the distance, and the damage they see each other in a way no one else does. Two hearts with locked doors. Two people who never meant to collide again.

The School Player vs ME [DISCONTINUED] by LittleMissCrazy96

**It takes me a second to realize what is happening. Zac is kissing me! He is bloody kissing me!! Something then flashes and I realize Zac just took a picture of us. I push him away and back out of the car. How dare he kisses me and how dare he takes a picture! "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING?!!?" I yell at him. He shrugs and hops out the car like this was all a joke. Of course he think its a joke. He is Zac, the most annoying ass hole in the whole universe! "I need to add this to my collection." he says, showing me the picture he just took. I stare at the picture, anger building up inside me. He is so dead!** Katie Stone is your typical good girl and much to her dismay, she just so happens to live with the school player. She hates her life. She really, really hates it. And it's all because of one person: Zac Hansan. Zac is your typical high school heartthrob, who is always flashing his bad boy smile and stealing hearts. Zac loves his life, but not as much as he loves tormenting Katie. But much to Zac's dismay, his insanely good looks and bad boy attitude don't have the slightest effect on Katie. So what happens when these two are connected and dragged into the dark and messy past of their families? It is when this dark secret is revealed that both Katie and Zac are forced to put their differences aside and work together. Their actions will ultimately save their own lives, and they will be forced to make choices they never thought they would have to make. Can two people who hate each other change from being enemies to friends? Or possibly even more? ✕Important Notice: I WILL BE DOING MAJOR EDITING VERY, VERY SOON! KEEP IN MIND THAT THERE WILL BE A LOT OF SPELLING AND GRAMMAR MISTAKES! JUST A HEADS UP! 🎥Story Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfGef2CyjCo
