This unexpected change in weather managed to turn my mood around badly. 

I can't deny that I love rain, but when you have no place to dry up in after enjoying the raindrops as they pelt down against your skin, you can't help but dread the rainy days.

But, I guess I'm somewhat lucky, for the rain didn't decide to fall while I was making my way to 'The Heaven'. 

And, as soon as I came to a stop in front of the store's door, I felt the first drop of rain fall onto my skin, and for the first time in my life, I looked up and made a wish before opening the door and stepping into a store that could help in deciding my fate.

Being alone? Check. Being afraid? Check. Being abused? Check times 3. Honestly, my life wasn't this bad before, not until I ended in foster care... SIKE! My life was always bad. From the moment I was born, I lived with an abusive father who blamed me for my mother's death, and even I couldn't disagree with him. Here are a few questions I am constantly asked: 'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends.

I Fell in Love with a Bad Boy by Beautiful_Tragedy8
33 parts Complete
CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.

Hope Young is a 23 year old, living in LA. She's a selfish, self absorbed and cold-hearted person. She loves having the money, the clothes and the big house. At least that's what she tries to make everyone think, though the truth is, it's all just an act to stop anyone from getting close. But the question is; will she ever take that mask off and be the warm-hearted person she really is? What happens when someone comes knocking on Hope's door; disguised as an innocent school girl, only for Hope to do what she always does and treats her just like every other person and slams the door in her face. Except what Hope didn't know is that this 'girl' isn't just any ordinary girl, in fact, she is a powerful witch and her name is Karma and she loves to find people like Hope to teach them a lesson; in hope to either change them or break them. Hope didn't realise that the moment she slammed that door shut on Karma, was the moment her entire world would forever change as she gets pulled into the supernatural world that she never knew existed. Once the witch curses Hope, she gives her 90 days to prove that she can be selfless, compassionate, fearless, loving, open, honest and most of all, forgiving and accepting, but in doing so, she will have to face all that she's been running from for the last 6 years, which means that she'll have to face what changed her into the closed off person that she became in the first place and with each bad thing that she does from day one will have a karmic consequence. If she succeeds and becomes who she is destined to be by the final day, then the curse will break, but if she fails, she will die and the witch will entrap her soul for all eternity. Will Hope survive Karma's curse and will she be able to cope with what she faces along the way, including the shocking truth about herself and those around her? She may have 90 Days of Karma but with the help of her friends, each one starts to slowly get taken over by Hope.

It does have around 40 chapters so it might not seem like it. But trust me that it is.] ||Full Disclosure|| I started the book in the end of 8th grade so it needs MAJOR editing. It also does have Sexual Chapters, as well as people of the same sex being together, murder, brutally torture talk of rape and sexual harassment. So if you do not wish to read things like that then this unfortunately isn't the book for you. ||You Have Been Warned|| First book in the Heart series. •Do Not Copy This Book In Anyway•
