Valerie only knows one home.
The laboratory she's been confined in since she was thirteen. Or, so she may find out has been protecting her from the outside.
Her only memory's consist of the the dingy, dark room she hides away in and the empty echoes of the steel
Reinforced walls.
And then one day, she meets Lucas Cain: The blue eyed boy, who peeks at her throughout the knothole connecting their cells from time to time; telling her stories of life on the outside.
Eager to escape, Lucas decides to bring his new accomplice along, promising to give her a life she's longed for so long.
During their mission to escape the heavily patrolled Laboratory, Valerie runs into her green- eyed hero, JC. A closed off, shady boy, who wants nothing to do with the curious, yellow eyed girl who asks to many questions.
He's determined to stay away, to keep closed off.
The real world isn't what Valerie had hoped, different from the stories she's read in her confined jail cell.
It's not what she'd hoped for at all.
Will She be able to handle the truth of a corrupted government, of a community destroyed by the new social stereotypes of the new world?
Can she finally find the hope and love she's always yearned for?
Or will her and her lover be doomed to loneliness forever?
Is that all of this new world, or is the yellowed eyed girl destined for more?

The Guy from the Insane Asylum
A supernatural romance with twisted pasts, magic, psychics, and murder. And yeah, high school drama. "Pretty much a Mr. Badboy & Girl story but with literal magic and witches involved." - The Author of This Book ~ When Bethany Harlow's parents force her to volunteer at their local Dared Insane Asylum, she's forced to lie to all her friends about her after-school whereabouts. Zachary Jaxston was the reason she didn't want anyone to know where she spent her free time. He was the talk of the town four years ago, and she knew that if her volunteering were to be public news, his popularity would rise again. Everyone from her high school would mock her for hanging out with The Mother Murdered & Hallucinator. But he wasn't as crazy as he made people believe. Bethany was determined to find out the real reason Zachary was admitted into a mental institution. He didn't seem like a guy who could kill, especially not his own mother. However, her determination led her straight into the discovery of Zachary's supernatural abilities-that could in fact potentially hurt Bethany. But when she found out Zach was a male witch, a wizard, a portal to all things supernatural opened in her mind. She even made a few discoveries about herself and her family, the Harlow's. Slowly, together, they explore all the possibilities of magic. But when Bethany has a freak accident and almost kills a guy, their whole world flips upside down. Now, Bethany, Zach, and the rest of the Harlow family have to figure out a way to escape the dark and save Bethany. Will they be able to do it before it's too late? Or will Bethany become on of the endarkened? ~ ❝You should be scared of me.❞ ❝I know. But I'm not.❞ ❝I could hurt you.❞ ❝But you won't.❞ ❝You don't know that.❞ ❝But . . .

Best Served Fake
"Little Valerie," said Kai, bending closer to me. "Are you blackmailing me into dating you?" He didn't seem particularly disturbed by the notion. In fact, he remained completely amused. "Yes?" Kai grinned. "Very mafia of you. I'm weirdly kind of into it." *** When Valerie Williams discovers that her long-term boyfriend is sleeping with her best friend, she devises a revenge plot to get back at them both. But when she asks bad boy Kai Delaney to pretend to date her, she never thought her heart would be on the line. *** Self-proclaimed pessimist Valerie Williams is definitely your glass-half-empty kind of girl. However, Valerie is surprisingly optimistic when her (ex) boyfriend cheats on her with her (also ex) best friend. Valerie doesn't believe in holding grudges; she believes in getting even. Which doesn't seem easy, until her boyfriend's least favourite person and her best friend's long-standing crush, the sarcastic, cocky and popular bad boy extraordinaire Kai Delaney crashes, quite literally, into her life. When Kai accidentally hits her car with what is practically a monster truck, and can barely afford to cover it, Valerie has an idea. If Kai agrees to pretend to date her, for long enough to make her boyfriend and best friend regret their actions, Valerie will give him the duration of their scam to pull together the money to pay her back. Revenge is a dish best served fake. [150,000-200,000 words]Complete
