Everything in her life was going great, or as great as her normal life was. Her favourite artists were making good comebacks, she got bullied occasionally, but who hasn't?
Life was still okay for her, despite her past. She had grown stronger due to the accident, although she had challenges involving her anxiety, she was okay. Nothing a good 'The Big Bang Theory' marathon couldn't fix. I mean who who doesn't love Sheldon telling people when they're sitting on his spot?

Paradoxical Attachments
Leora Parakesh has never fit in a box. Be it because she was a brown girl born in England, surrounded by blonde hair and blue eyes as far as you could see, or because of her above average intelligence that had created somewhat of an inflated ego, but maybe it was the constant feeling in her chest that she wasn't where she belonged. She thought her heart belong in the stars, alongside her genius brain. Anjo O'Conner didn't think twice about anything he did, in fact, he would probably bet he didn't think once either. He loved everything about his life, his friends and family, his reputation as his high schools favourite all-star, and his more-than-frequent conquests with the opposite sex. He was perfectly happy in his hometown, Ohio. Or maybe he was just really good at lying to himself. When Leora makes the sudden decision to move to Ohio with her father as they both run mistakes, she ends up fitting into his world like a jagged thorn in his side while he cruises through hers like a tornado on steroids. They find themselves competing for the same scholarship out of nowhere, and while AJ finds out Leora doesn't mind playing dirty, Leora learns that it's always the ones you least expect that are freaks in the sheets. She can't stand his cocky, arrogant and good hearted nature, and he can't stand to hear her drone on and on in that ridiculously cute accent. Wait, did he just say..cute? Annoying. Ridiculously annoying accent. Read on for their story!! Mature scenes and sensitive topics such as assault, addiction, and alcoholism covered.
Best Served Fake
"Little Valerie," said Kai, bending closer to me. "Are you blackmailing me into dating you?" He didn't seem particularly disturbed by the notion. In fact, he remained completely amused. "Yes?" Kai grinned. "Very mafia of you. I'm weirdly kind of into it." *** When Valerie Williams discovers that her long-term boyfriend is sleeping with her best friend, she devises a revenge plot to get back at them both. But when she asks bad boy Kai Delaney to pretend to date her, she never thought her heart would be on the line. *** Self-proclaimed pessimist Valerie Williams is definitely your glass-half-empty kind of girl. However, Valerie is surprisingly optimistic when her (ex) boyfriend cheats on her with her (also ex) best friend. Valerie doesn't believe in holding grudges; she believes in getting even. Which doesn't seem easy, until her boyfriend's least favourite person and her best friend's long-standing crush, the sarcastic, cocky and popular bad boy extraordinaire Kai Delaney crashes, quite literally, into her life. When Kai accidentally hits her car with what is practically a monster truck, and can barely afford to cover it, Valerie has an idea. If Kai agrees to pretend to date her, for long enough to make her boyfriend and best friend regret their actions, Valerie will give him the duration of their scam to pull together the money to pay her back. Revenge is a dish best served fake. [150,000-200,000 words]Complete

Consumed by guilt and reminded every day of all that he's done, he makes a terrible decision- and ends up with the only thing he's ever wanted in life. Now he's faced with a choice- lie and be happy, or tell the truth and risk losing the one person who's saved his life time and time again. The odds that all of this could happen to one person?

Tired of Lies
*(COMPLETED) "The worst thing about being lied to is knowing you weren't worth the truth." He bit his lip. "I wanted to te-" His eyes began to water and as a single tear fell he looked at me and said "but what if you've been lying for so long you don't know how to tell the truth?" "I have and so will you." He shook his head, shut his eyes, and leaned his forehead against the glass. "And here I was thinking you would admit that you don't tell the truth either." I gripped the telephone as my knuckles turned white. "What do you mean?" "Come on Zoey I've seen you sneaking around acting like you're busy. You're hiding something and you won't tell me." All Zoey Campbell ever wanted to do was keep her head down and get through high school. Too bad it isn't that easy. Zoey is tired of everything and everyone.

All she wants to do is scream but no matter how loud she screams no one can hear her. Don't worry things just get worse. Everyone thinks she's a "sick" girl and just another suicide case waiting to happen. I mean what kind of girl sits by herself everyday right?

Everyone thinks she really is sick but she knows she's not. But what if she is? Maybe all it takes is that one thing to make her snap. As her life gets thrown into chaos and deep dark secrets she can't help but try to figure out the truth. Will she find a way to let her new friends save her or will she just end up as another suicide case? *Disclaimer wrote this in 2017 when I was 14.Complete

OH MY GOD. *********************************** Ellie Rosell. Casual teenager trying to get through high school by watching Netflix, eating, spending her money on concerts, and swooning over hot guys. Just when Ellie thought she'll spend her last year of hell known as school with the same boring routine, she met Aaron Owens. And from down there, things changed. For sure. Did they change for the better? Since she's actually making friends, going out, and dare she says, falling in love? Or for the worse? With family secrets, mental health issues, heartbreak, and fake people? After all, she met the one and only Aaron Owens, and he changed her life. *********************************** "Oh my gosh! Author! reading this story was just... I have no words. The adventure you took me on was just dreamy. You made me laugh out loud so hard and you also made me cry. You made me feel the second-hand embarrassments that Ellie felt and it was so lively. You made me feel as if I was Ellie and you gave me hope that I could one day feel the same way as Ellie did towards Aaron. And all of these reasons is why your book is one of the best books I've ever read and let me tell you I've read a lot of books. Thanks for the journey and the hope you have given me!
