"Oh right, you're agoraphobic?" He asked, understanding. I nodded quickly.

"So you've never set foot outside of this penthouse."

"No. Not once since I came here." He sighed and walked to me.

"You have to go out." He said. I shook my head again.

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes! Sorry lady but I need to get down that elevator." 

Rachel La Tere is agoraphobic. She had never left her penthouse at the top of the luxury Castle apartments. With a controlling mother for 10 years, she had learnt to not question things such as why her hair was to never be cut short or why she wasn't allowed to have any pictures of herself. When Kyle comes crashing, literally, into her careful and solitude life, would she finally find out the answers to her secrets? Why her biological mother had died and what truly happened to her father after she was 'adopted'. And why everybody seems to be searching for her?

And what happens when Kyle finds out what happens to people when they help break carefully built secrets apart?

Avery Hills is not your ordinary seventeen year-old girl. Avery has been locked up in her house since the minute she returned from the hospital after being born. Sounds kind of like Rapunzel right? A girl being trapped somewhere since her birth with little to no hopes of freedom? Not really actually. Instead of being asked to let her long hair down in order to get free, Avery got her freedom the old fashioned way, she fought for it. She argued, pestered, and yelled her way out of her horrible 'castle' and out into the real world. But very soon she realizes that 'out into the real world' isn't as great as she thought it would be. Now Avery has to try to live a life like all the other teenagers, after seventeen years of no human contact other than her beloved tutor and parents. She struggles a lot with understanding friendship, love, and who to trust and not, and just when she thinks about giving up, she runs into Luke White. Luke White is exciting and intriguing to Avery, and he makes her feel things she can't even explain. He helps her fit in, and even introduces her to his friend, Nate Oak who she later dates. Luke makes Avery complete, and Avery makes Luke complete, but in a different way... Luke finally realizes his true feelings, and becomes angry, sad, and bitter. He quickly gets revenge on Avery, for making him feel this way. Will Luke's revenge be enough to send Avery off the edge, and back to her old life? (Awesome cover made by @emblyn_rose)

***WINNER of the "BREATHTAKING: A FANTASY AND SCIENCE FICTION NOVEL WRITING COMPETITION!" "You are a secret kept from the world, but not from me." So begins the peculiar message found slipped under a bedroom door on the morning of May first. Theo is the heir to a powerful dictatorship. The number of people allowed to know he exists is few. He has spent his entire life walled up in the Tower, the looming stone monolith from which his father rules over the Land. Merryn is the daughter of political prisoners. She's known who Theo is longer than he would think possible, and she is taking a great risk contacting him via handwritten notes in order to convince him he deserves more than the fate his father has designed for him. She has one month to exchange daily messages with him, to answer his questions and open his eyes to the realities of a world he has never been allowed to see. A revolution is coming to the Land at the end of the month, and if Merryn's notes fail to get their point across, Theo may never live to see the sunrise on June first. A/N: The following letters were originally published each day from May 1st-31st, 2014. As you will see,Theo is allowed to write down a question for Merryn each evening, but you, the reader, won't see these within the body of the story. It may or may not be obvious from Merryn's response what Theo is asking. Part of the fun is guessing what his questions might be, but if you really want to know what they are, a list of those questions is at the end of the story. This story is a re-imagining of Rapunzel. Now, without further ado-I believe a young heir is about to unfold a slip of paper found on the tile floor near his door... Let's see what it says!
