Wren Kenneth grew up in foster homes after her father leaves and her mother's death. When she's seventeen, her uncle brings her home to Danbury, Connecticut. For the first time in her life, who she is is threatened, she struggles with friendships, mean girls and maybe falling in love. Can she finally lose her instinct to run? Does she finally have a home?
Logan Risk has been through a lot family wise and he finally pulled himself together until the day he met Wren and her attitude and ripped clothes thrown him off again. Can he help her get over her anger at life in order to get her to trust him and love him back? Can he even make her want to stop running?
Nathan Kites has always been the chill guy, a great friend, and the guy with a perfect life. The only problem he has is reacting with anger. He becomes Wren's tutor and the closer she got to Logan, the further away she got from him and he acted out. Can he get her to trust him again?
"Acquire" is told by the point of view from the three teenagers. Can they, together, even each other out and become who they were meant to be?

The Bikers
"Are you sure you wanna do this?" He asks, his hazel eyes grazing over my tear streaked face illuminated by the moonlight. "I've never been so sure of anything in my entire life." "Carter, this is a big decision. Once you're in, you can never get back out." I wipe my face deliberately as he waits for my answer. No more pain, no more bullying. Maybe this is what I need. A new beginning. A chance to start over. "I want this, Nathan. I want in." I say. He takes me by the wrist and leads me over to his dark motorcycle. Putting his helmet on my head and strapping it under my chin, he stares into my large, brown eyes. "Everything's gonna be fine. I promise." He nods with reassurance as he tucks a curl behind my ear. Another tear escapes my eye and he quickly wipes it away. This is the most sincere Nathan has ever been with me and I feel nervous, but excited. He takes my hands and wraps them around his toned abs before we both sputter off into the moonlight. The applewood California breeze whips my face as we speed down the motorway. This is it. •••••••••••••• Carter Wyatt has just been moved to sunny Pasadena, California with her single dad. After her mother's passing and her older brother's death, things just weren't the same. Starting at a new school with new friends wasn't what she would worry most about. It would be The Bikers---a school gang that just won't stay out of her way. With a handsome and dangerous gang leader and a jealous blonde Biker always on her case, school becomes a tale of sacrifice and endurance, and maybe a little romance if she's lucky. When given the opportunity of a lifetime, will she give in and become a member of one of the most feared gangs in the west or will she stay true to herself and keep out of trouble?Complete
The Bad Boy Saved Me
Do you ever wonder what life would be like if it were a movie? Or some sappy romance novel that you wish your life could be like but it's not? Sometimes you may even get to caught up in the fictional world that you don't realise it IS fictional. Then when you do realise life isn't what you convinced yourself it would be, there is only one possible outcome. Depression. Which may lead to anxiety, self-harm, low self esteem, and worst of all, losing the people you love. Life works in weird ways. Not just for you but for others too. Take Cassidy Rivers for example. Her life is far from perfect. No parents, over protective big brother, few friends, and Asher Norman, the bad boy who won't stop picking on her. Could life get any worse for Cassidy?Complete
