A story about two generations of Laurenses and Hamiltons, and how their lives become entwined through family, friends, self-discovery, and love.  

It starts out rocky - Frances doesn't know what's going on in her life - her relationship with her father seems fragile, she doesn't exactly have a lot of friends, and the ones she does have have better ones than her.  There's something going with her mind, she doesn't know what it is, and she hates it.  

Philip has a good life - his dad is basically his best friend, but he has a million other friends at school that are all a close second.  He's confident he can get with the girl he's recently developed a crush on until he meets  her best friend.  

John is lonely - he's trying to understand his daughter, but she has been more recently drifting away and he doesn't know if she needs help, or if he could even help her if she did.  He wishes they could be a team, but she seems to prefer going solo.  

Alex is overworked - he barely has time for anything.  Recently a single dad, he's constantly at the office, working longer hours to support his seven kids.  He's got Philip to help him out around the house and with the other kids, at least, but that doesn't make solitarily running a household that much easier.  

Will the trip to the principal's office that changes all their lives be for better - or worse?

[Highest ranking #85] "Your family killed my mother for no reason plus I'm a pathetic weak girl, so don't expect us to be friends even if we have to be married" Jezebel said I looked at her blankly this is my fault I pushed her away I said all those things I acted cold towards her. She looked at me and you could see the slightest speck of emotion and its was sadness. I shook my head and looked at her. She rolled her eyes and started to walk out but I stopped her. "Oh Ella.. We will be more than friends and there is noting you can do about it" I said and grabbed her arm and threw her on my bed and smirked down at her innocent face. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Aiden Casin is a bad boy. Parents are the ruthless Carter Casin and carefree Isabella Casin. He sleeps around with all kinds of girls, speaks his mind, bully's on people, never listens, gets bad grades, and he's always breaking the rules.... Not believable? Yea, I'm not buying it either.. Aiden is actually a good kid people just give him all these labels because of his dad, that are mostly not true.... He does sleep around with girls and sometimes if it's necessary he will bully people to get a point through. But then something unexpected happened. He has to wed to his fathers rival gang for a treaty.... Jezebel Pari.... Hm. Doesn't that sound familiar? Wait you don't know her parents do you? Parents are Susan Pari and Dylan Pari. Jezebel is the exact opposite of her parents she is innocent and she is pure.... Yea, I'm not kidding this time. Even if her parents are or were totally freaks, Jezebel is the kindest girl you'll ever met. She loves animals, nature, people and her main hobby is art. But what will happen when her father makes her marry Aiden for her to spy on them? Will love blossom? Or will they be the rivals they were destined to be? Once enemies, always enemies.

Mrs Julia Robinson, the wife of American figure skating Olympian Adrian Robinson, is nervous about finally meeting her husband's family. After two years of marriage living in Amsterdam, they've decided it's time to move back to Virginia and give Julia the opportunity to meet the rest of her husband's family. The most important of them all is his close sister and best friend, Adreanna Jones. The flight to Virginia was long, but the car ride to Adreanna's house was short. Despite the short distance, the couple never made it there. Julia wakes up in a hospital, broken and alone. She learnt that they'd been in an accident that claimed her husband's life and sent her into a coma for 12 days. Heartbroken, depressed and disabled, she found herself stranded in a foreign country with no one to lean on. Or so she thought. Adreanna loved her brother more than anyone in the world. He was her father, mother, and best friend. He was her everything. Then he was gone. Julia was the closest thing left to her brother. Adreanna's intentions were to just get to know the woman her brother married, look after her on his behalf until she could look after herself again and eventually return home. But life wiped out those plans before they even cemented as the two women, in a time of hurt and grief, seeking closure, companionship and love, formed a bond they didn't even realise was growing until it was too late. Now they're stuck at a crossroads, having to decide between love and ethics. The sequel to Drea is out now. It is called Mrs Jones. You can find it on my profile. <3
