Ciera Knowles is an average seventeen year old girl. And she seems to hide her pain well. Her sister is only older than her by a few months, yet, she seems to be the favorite of everyone. Ciera's family doesn't support her in anything and favor her sister Clara, over her.
No one sees her.
But then one fateful day, she finds out an exchange student is moving in with the rest of her family. And despite his arrogance, his lack of smiling, and not wanting to share anything with anyone, Ciera finds herself wrapped up in him.
Because he's the only one who truly sees her.
EXCERPT:
"Yeah. You do sound stupid, because I do smile."
"No, you don't."
His intriguing blue eyes locked onto mine, holding me hostage. His gaze was so intense I wanted to look away. Or not. I wasn't sure anymore. "I smile at you, isn't that enough?"

The Equation Of Us
Let's be real-school isn't easy for everyone. Some people are born for it; they breeze through exams, ace every subject, and seem to have a secret code to surviving quizzes without breaking a sweat. But for the rest of us? We study 'til our eyes hurt, only to get red marks in return. We try, we fail, and we wonder why it's so hard to keep up while others make it look so easy. Gianna Rye Medina lives that struggle every single day. With her average IQ, Math feels like a never-ending nightmare she can't escape. Failing grades? Already part of her routine. Pasang-awa scores in other subjects? That's her definition of "victory." But just when she's ready to stop trying, here comes Zion Blaze Zamora-their class's golden boy. A Math major. The school's academic archiver. The guy who probably dreams in numbers and wakes up with formulas in his head. They couldn't be more different-she's always lost in class, and he's always on top. But when fate (and maybe a few group projects) start pulling them together, Gianna wonders: is Zion there to remind her of how far behind she is... or could he be the unexpected answer to the equation she's been failing all along? A story about falling, failing, and finding the kind of connection that no grade or formula could ever predict.
The Boy Next Door
His faint laugh stopped me in my tracks, my body turning sightly to look at him again. "That was cute. Really, I loved it, but you know I can't just stay away." He said while using air quotations for the last part of his sentence. My narrowed eyes continued to shoot daggers at him, "and why is that, Grayson? Huh?" I asked in a mocking tone. He rubbed along his jaw while pulling in on his bottom lip, his head lightly shaking from side to side. "What?" I said louder, my patience long gone. "I live right next door," he deadpanned, "I'm not going anywhere. As far as I'm concerned we're gonna be seeing each other practically every day, so this whole thing about staying away just isn't going to work for you. I don't let things I love go so easily." A chill went down my spine as I watched him walk up the stairs of his porch, "sweet dreams, Cam." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Eighteen year old, Cameron Woods, is ready to start her senior year alongside her friends and boyfriend, Damon Valero.
