*Think End of the F***ing World on Netflix*
What if you just up and left? You grabbed your polaroid camera, a bottle of cheap wine, cigarettes, a journal, and your best friend, and went wherever the wind pushed you?
That's exactly what 19 year old Ivy Blythe was thinking as she stared at her laptop screen. All she'd need was some money, which has become hard to come by, some clothes, and someone to go with her, and she knew just the person.
When 21 year old Cora Dawson gets the text, she's immediately on board. An adventure with her best friend, right before they have to go off to college and be 3000 miles apart again? Why wouldn't she say "hell yeah"?
And just like that, they're gone, going wherever the wind blows them, letting their hearts lead the way, taking pictures, sketching, and writing about everything. But when they find something strange, they find themselves trying to uncover a mystery that everyone has seemed to forgotten about.
In this cross-genre novel, elements from romance, science fiction/Fantasy, adventure, and YA Fiction/General Fiction are thrown into a bowl and mixed together, creating a beautiful concoction, telling the adventurous story of Ivy and Cora in a matter nothing less than entertaining.

Dear Intruder | (Completed)
Could you fall in love with someone you never met, saw or spoke to? Sounds unlikely? *** Ella is an overworked college student whose only plan is to get through her college swiftly & proficiently. Sounds simple enough- but when she comes across a personal diary that sparks her curiosity, it is suddenly proven a little more than a speed bump. Ella is intrigued, maybe even enamored.... But definitely in denial. Hooked by the writer's endearing charm, sharp wit & beautiful penmanship, she begins an anonymous correspondence and with every confession, every single quip and joke, he wins her heart little by little while she loses herself in those letters. Even though she has a pile of college assignments demanding her time, Ella makes it her mission to search for the unknown writer. She defenestrates her logical plans & tortures herself by indulging in a nail-biting & probably a tad bit unhealthy mystery as she sets out on an expedition that would only come to an end when she finds the enigmatic scribbler. And that just might be the most terrifying project she has ever taken on.

The Painting
"It took me five seconds to fall. The impact on my chest jarring my body but not my mind. I suppose this is the point where your life is supposed to flash before your eyes as time itself freezes - and it did in a way. But I didn't relive my life physically like walking through an old memory, déjà vu in each step. It was a feeling, something that started in my chest and spread to my fingertips, one so unique to me that it encapsulated each significant event into one single second." For as long as May can remember one mystery has haunted her world. A dirty window before her, the grim obstructing her vision, she has lived with a loss she can't identify - that is until one rainy night. Gradually the spots of dirt May scratched at for so long wipe away with the touch of a finger. But when she looks in will she like what she sees - or will curiosity kill the cat?Complete
Business And Hopelessness
"Your hair is full of snow," He chuckled as he looked at her, reaching out to push a strand of hair behind her ear. Some snow successfully fell off her, but he didn't withdraw his hand. He cupped her cheek, wiping away a few snowflakes from it. She was frozen, staring at him like a deer caught in headlights, her heart pounding in her chest. Then, raising his other hand, he cupped her cheeks fully. His eyes began to trace every inch of her face; her eyes, her cheeks, her nose, before his gaze dropped to her lips. Her heart skipped a beat as she tried to keep herself together. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Seventeen-year-old Valentina Barron doesn't have the most ideal home life.

The Ages Between Us (GxG)

Lily was left to be raised by her grandmother, but was still burdened with crushing expectations to reach the academic heights that her mother failed to grasp. Left with nothing but her bubbly personality and her aspiring dreams to be a writer, Lily turns to a supposed "stranger" for help, not knowing just how much help she would be. *** Winter Callipie left the suffocating walls of her family home eleven years ago- and left the expectations she had with it. Now, a photographer struggling to make ends meet, she returns home at the request of the one person who has her heart. The only person who will ever have her heart. But when she meets a strange girl who refuses to leave her alone, something in her shifts, especially when she realizes just how alike they are. *Disclaimer* This is a completely spontaneous story that I started writing to prove to myself I can actually finish a writing piece and not get bogged down with making it perfect. Meaning this has no editing and no specific plotline or direction it's heading to. I just wanted to write something. I promise it will get exciting though. Despite all that, thank you for picking up my book and I hope you enjoy.![Hug Me When It Rains [18+]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/375833939-256-k992673.jpg)
