"You can't put plasters on broken glass or a bullet wound." I argued. "If someone is that shattered, what is the point?"
"The point is that once you fall you get up and move on. Like skydiving. You have two options; either you fall and let yourself get hurt and die or you pull your parachute and save yourself. It's up to you to open the parachute because no one else can."

Remains Brave {New War Series Book 1}
Where there's a will there's a way, and then there's Rem. A girl who lost it all after writing a book. Her writing style persuaded different groups to think and believe different things about her beliefs. The odd way her words touched the nation brought unity, which in turn made her the most revered woman in the United States. So much so that people sought her out to be the leader of the rebellion. Just shy of her twenty-first birthday, the once crazy college student leads a group of rebels through dangerous territory in an effort to escape to safer ground, only to face mountains of hardship in between. As the rebellion turns to full civil war, Rem tries her best to hold onto the last possession of her past life that she has, while juggling the relationships she builds on her journey. War changes every participant, and that's no exception for the Rebel princess.Lengkap

They balance each-other out. One the calm, the other the storm. Except when they don't. Except when she loses it and makes the place burn...literally. Who knew a burnt building would lead to three lost brothers across the country and a big ass house...after being on the run for almost a year. The twins are in for a crazy ride, but they're in it together. Always. Pinky promise. Will it be enough? TW: abuse, SA, r*pe, and mature language/scenes.

Twenty Dollars-Worth of Love
"It all started with a simple bet. I never thought that a tiny piece of paper would change my entire life." As eighteen-year-old Sky Dunbroch struggles to survive her senior year, she has somewhat vowed to herself never to fall in love again due to a failed past relationship. But once she meets and unbelievably gorgeous ego-centric guy (whom she almost killed) everything seems to be turned against her will. Winning the bet was one thing, but losing it was definitely the other way around. Will Sky be able to follow her don't-fall-in-love mantra, or will this guy be able to get under her skin and make her fall in love again? This is my first attempt on writing my own novel, hence: too many plotholes, undecided characters' characters, no absolute direction of what's going to happen next, and the likes. Nevertheless, you can check out my other stories that are, hopefully, (way) better than this one. Thanks!Lengkap

No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends.
