Austen O'James is the classic invisible yet inspiring teenage girl, who's destined for greatness but who's just too afraid to leave the comfort of her shell. A bookworm at heart, and a secret passion for music, living with her mother after her parents divorce, alone with no siblings to squabble with, she wishes nothing but to leave her home town and escape into the stupendous world that everyone writes about in stories.
However, currently she's fighting the battles of a zero existent social life that deems her too busy.
But what happens when one day a small note is left for her in the library? And then another and another. Finally when everything starts looking up, Austen starts looking down, memorising the messy loopy handwriting of the boy she's never met, yet knew too much. How long until she starts quoting Nolan? #BOOK1

The boy who hurt me first
Tessa Young is everything an eighteen-year-old girl is supposed to be-brilliant, driven, and ambitious enough to dream of a university far from her small town. She loves quiet moments, books, and the feeling of being in control of her future. But there is one thing she cannot control: Hardin Scott. He is the boy she built sandcastles with at the beach, who held her hand on her first day of school, and who once swore he would never hurt her. Since his mother's death, Hardin has been shattered-hard, distant, and angry-and Tessa has become the perfect target for his storm. The words that once brought her safety now cut like blades, and the eyes that once held warmth are now colder than steel. Everyone sees Hardin as the fearless boy who smokes, drinks, and fights, but Tessa sees something else entirely. She sees a pain that no one recognizes, a void that never found words, and a past that tied them together only to rip them apart. Her feelings refuse to listen to logic, and against every principle she lives by, she falls for the boy who hurts her every single day. She hates herself for loving him and cannot understand it, but every time he shoves her into the lockers, she sees the boy who used to catch her when she fell. And every time he insults her, something in his eyes breaks along with her heart. When Tessa's feelings can no longer stay hidden, Hardin is forced to face a choice he has never had the courage to make. Will he become the boy who once protected her, or remain the boy who pushes her away to avoid losing himself? The question that could destroy them both remains unanswered: can love grow out of pain, or will it be the final crack that breaks them for good? ~~~~~~~ Currently rewritingComplete
The Lies We Share ✔
"She a coward sitting alone in her room, faceless and nameless among the many others like her. She was the shadow of a "real" girl. Laura felt the tears come, and it felt like forever since they've last truly fallen." We can't control the world but we can control how we react to it. Wise words, but nobody, especially not Laura Cliff, actually cares to follow that mantra. You could call it a character flaw but in her mind, it is unrelenting confidence in her ability to read people. Even if reading people is like talking through a tin can connected by a string that spans 1,000 miles. Relationships, she will learn, are kind of like that. If a drunk aunt and a sober world can't help her see through the lies, who exactly can? In The Lies We Share by Courtney Knight, one girl finds power and love in her daily life.

Nolan Davey: Amateur Writer
Notice: Readable as is, but slated for a massive update. Nolan Davey loves reading and the occasional stint with writing. When his crush is assigned as his lab partner in Chemistry, it's as if fate itself decided to give him a classic storybook romance. All he has to do is welcome it with open arms and use the opportunity to confess his feelings, right? Except, Nolan has never had an inkling of the desire to pursue his "crushes," choosing the world of fiction instead. Will this be the time he finally chases his own romance? Or will he stick up a metaphorical middle finger to the divine and ignore the chance? Either way, he will be forced to face his lack of knowledge in the field of love as he pursues his dream: being an author. - The first four parts are technically prologue, so if you want to skip straight to the part titled "Chapter 1" then you won't miss anything.Complete
