COMPLETED Living a life you didn't sign up for is hard, but doing so while feeling lost is harder. Dylan Amity is a musical prodigy. He could play a range of instruments, from the electric guitar to his violin. He lived, ate, and breathed music and was on track to becoming the orchestra's lead violinist. He was ready to become one of history's best composers. But he decided to place his dreams on hold for a while when he found out that his dad, the CEO of Amity Industry, was diagnosed with stage three lung cancer. His dad's death was expected, but the way he died wasn't. After the reading of the will, Dylan is faced with the harsh reality that you don't always get what you want. Following a short period of grief, Dylan is thrust into a world of business, responsibilities, and guardianship. He never wanted to be CEO, but now he has to because it's what his dad wanted. He also never expected to be Amber's, his thirteen-year-old sister's, legal guardian. Dylan has to put his dreams aside as he learns to navigate his new life without any experience of being a CEO or a guardian. Without a guide, Dylan is bound to feel lost, but maybe Rose could help. Maybe she could teach him how to deal with it. ••• Sneak Peek: "You know what, Amber? At least I'm fucking trying!" I gritted out, meeting her eyes that practically blazed with fury. "Yeah! Trying to act like papa. But guess what, Dylan, you never cared about me or what I did!" She screamed, taking steps back towards the stairs. "You never cared when I was a baby, you didn't care when I was a toddler, and guess what! You don't care now. You're only pretending to care to make yourself feel better. But you don't! No one fucking cares."

It was gentle and soft, something I never expected from a guy like him. He moved his right hand from my cheek to my waist, tugging me against him, and molded our bodies together. A wave of electricity went down to my core when he licked my lips. "Open your mouth, Bella." His commanding husky voice against my lips jolted my heart, and I followed his order like a slave. With no control, a moan erupted from my throat as his tongue met mine. It was barely audible, but I knew he heard it when he smiled against my lips. He swept my hair from my face to my back and gathered them in his fist. He tugged my head back, deepening the kiss, and my heart thrashed in my chest. At that moment, I didn't need drugs to know what being high felt like because his lips were enough to send me on nine clouds. Just once and I was addicted to it. If this is how being kissed feels like, then fuck, I've wasted a lot of time. ~^~^~^~ FEATURED ON: @Romance (Romantic Suspense) HIGHEST RANKINGS: #1 Goodgirl, Darkpast #2 Badboy #5 Newadult

Life is deadly and alive. We can either kill ourselves or be killed. I write so others see how life is in my eyes. I know my world is not everyone else's, but perspective can show people that there is something to offer in this world and that we are not alone, even in a world filled with people. Life leads us as we are guided by our choices. And there is only one way to live life, and that decision is up to you. "Dear Haley; Love, Haley" is a way I communicate with our Creator, the highest source. This collection is dedicated to myself, my future, and The Most High. For without them I am nothing, and with them, I am everything and all. My diary is representation for everyone who aspires to write to the Creator of themselves. This letter outline is designed to help people understand an amazing journey as to how you came about and how you are led to your greatest destiny, the destiny you write with your own hands.

Everyone deserves love, everyone deserves forgiveness, and everyone deserves a peace of mind. We are not like everyone in this world, we are simply who we are. Thank you all for learning life each day; it is truly an honor to live each day with the knowledge to know that you are meaningful and that you have purpose. All you have to do is get to know yourself. Most importantly, a special thanks to The Most High. I love you forever, and always. Thank you. Love, Haley Diane Vee
