Sixteen-year-old Billy McCracken is the type of kid most parents dream of having - bright, hardworking, and responsible. Unfortunately she's also plain, overweight, and NOT the boy that her parents had hoped for, which seems to cancel out everything else. This leaves her overlooked and shunted aside while they focus on her flashy, dramatic older sister, who somehow manages to get anything she wants - including the charming, talented young musician that she knows Billy is infatuated with. But just as Billy reaches her breaking point, she's offered an unexpected opportunity, and decides to take it, leaving Southern California, and her old life, behind.
   Several years later, BVB bassist Ashley Purdy is dealing with some issues of his own, having realized that his rock-star lifestyle isn't everything that he'd thought it would be, and that he needs something more than parties, booze, and wannabe Barbies in his life. While he's trying to figure things out, he meets a young woman who seems oddly familiar to him, though he's not sure why. As they get to know each other, and work through their individual problems, it begins to dawn on him that not everything that glitters is gold, and that, just maybe, the most valuable treasures can come in the simplest packages.

Will contain adult language, sexual content, and references to drug use.

|CROSSROADS x LEAP YEAR | Eighteen-year-old April Lewis flees her troubled home, desperate to escape her emotionally distant, controlling mom, and seek out her dad. Little does she know a chance encounter with her classmate will take her on a cross-country ride: a journey that will change April's life forever. A venture that will lead her down a path of self-discovery and unexpected love. *** When eighteen-year-old April Lewis' mom walks around like a zombie, evades all attempts to talk and controls her every move, April decides she's had enough. She leaves home one warm summer evening with nothing but a yellow backpack filled with her coveted dad's letters he's been sending her for the past months, and some bare necessities. She's determined to seek him out and go live with him down on the West Coast, where he has a temporary job. The last thing April expects is almost being hit by a car. The owner of the vehicle? Her classmate, Dave Rivera, a troubled boy whom she almost never talked to before, and who can't be more different than her. After making sure April is just a little banged-up, Dave strikes a deal with her: he'll help her get to the West Coast free of charge, as long as she doesn't report him to the cops. The two embark upon a road trip from NY to LA, navigating through stunning landscapes and meeting a colorful cast of characters. While sharing life stories and exchanging experiences, armed with the wisdom from her Dad's letters, April and Dave discover that they are a lot more alike than they originally thought. The journey slowly becomes more important than the destination, and their path takes an unexpected turn when a shocking secret comes to light. © 2024 EvelynHail Exclusively on Wattpad Based on prompt 4!

Bar Red's Redemption ✔ by STESLARA
62 parts Complete Mature
"If you turn your back to me again, you better be bending over, sweetheart." *** Everyone warns you about boys who go looking for troubles, who have bruised knuckles and split lips, whose eyes are so dark that it seems like they could swallow oceans and come out alive, about the boys who look like danger, but no one warns about boys who stay silent for way too long, or ones with rings under their eyes, boys with sad eyes and boys who whisper things so sweet, so quietly that you wonder if he was an angel. Everyone warns you about the bad boys, but no one seems to warn you about the broken ones. Bar Red was a broken boy who finally finds someone to help mend his scattered pieces. Everyone saw him as the untrustworthy, unstable beast who was more than willing to punch anyone's face in. Swear words and bad habits mixed with smirks and wicked grins are enough to ward anyone off. But, apparently for Clementine, that's exactly what pulls her in. She has no clue what she's getting into but she's about to find out. She wasn't innocent, not by far, but she had dignity, a warm aura, niceness, and stubbornness that could rival a mule. Mix that with Bar's possessiveness and overprotective behavior, some interesting situations will definitely arise. Adding in the fact that Clementine had to tutor Bar for the rest of the school year and his almost instinctual urge to be apart of her life, they are bound to get close. Bar swears, Clementine hates it. He fights, she glares while bandaging up his knuckles. She reads instead of eats and he refuses dinner until she joins him. He is rude and she ignores him until he apologizes. Both, easily, frustrate the other while simultaneously falling into love. Broken boys are the only ones that can fix themselves so will this broken boy manage to do so before he drives away the one girl who wiggled her way past every barrier? This is the story of a broken bad boy clashing with the sad good girl. * #1 in the Red series Stand alone

"Fuck, Roxy...." Leo whispers out breathily and I let out a plead as once again the beautiful colors of orange and blue from the sunset spill over our skin. "Please don't..." I plead and he grabs onto my hands, intertwining our fingers. "I'm not gonna spend my senior year making you think that I never wanted this, Roxy. I do, and I just want you to know that." He says and I swallow. :; Leo "Jace" McClure is what you think of when you think of a popular senior jock. Everyone in the whole school knows him, the guy who has probably slept with all of the girls at the school, except for his sister's best friend Roxanne Rosinchy. But having Roxanne as his little sisters best friend and his family's prized possession comes with its problems when every time he looks at her he knows he's running out of time to tell her the truth, but also he doesn't know what the truth he has to tell her is... Roxanne "Rox/Roxy" Rosinchy has been friends with Rose since they were five, their families being pretty close. She had a perfect life before her father died two years ago. She's still sweet, she's "amazing and beautiful" as Leo would say. Roxy and Leo have been close, what you would expect when your families have known each other this long, but its hard when the one person you've ever been attracted to is one you're not supposed to love.
