Eighteen-year-old Agnes Griffin has spent an entire summer recovering from the traumatic head injury that stole a year's worth of her memories. Left with nothing but a box of Polaroids to offer a glimpse into her life before the accident, Agnes sets out to piece together the story of what happened to her friends, the boy she loved, and maybe even her old self. 
The memories are hazy, but one thing is sure: there was a tragedy, and learning the truth about it could mean the difference between mending the brokenness of the past or being trapped in it forever.All Rights Reserved

You're Mine, Always and Forever by imjusttrulyboreddd

[COMPLETED] "That wasn't very nice, was it princess?" He asked in a husky voice and I stuttered, trying to form words but failing. His lips leaned in and started to trail softly down my neck. I tried to hold in my moan as the light feeling of his lips in my skin continued until he pulled back abruptly. "Sorry princess. Not today." He finished before walking out of the room, leaving me in a daze. Madison Thompson isn't your typical 18-year-old. She attends Sea City High School in Florida and her temper and attitude always gets the better of her. But her strange encounter with school badboy and star quarterback, Noah Johnson, who has a bad past, puts her on edge as well as her little secret is slowly rising from the ashes.
