"Let me tell you this: if you meet a loner, no matter what they tell you, it's not because they enjoy solitude. It's because they have tried to blend into the world before, and people continue to disappoint them." -Jodi Picoult
Nova is a 21 junior at FAMU. She goes to class, work, and straight home. Other than her one friend who's basically her big brother, she's a loner in a room full of people. She's very introverted and only speaks when spoken to. Raised by her now deceased grandmother, because her "parents" weren't ready for that responsibility. What happens when she meets THE Jett Price- a man who has a permanent mug on his face, who is also a renowned business owner of some of the most popular clubs in Tallahassee?

Trip To Paris
"You ain't even that cute." Jojo playfully rolled her eyes allowing Dice to pull her arm to wherever he seemed to be leading her. "Where are you taking me!" She grew annoyed with the anticipation. "On a trip, just chill." -- For as long as she can remember, Jojo Rosewood has lived a picture-perfect life in a suburban area located in Chicago-designer clothes, private schools, and a glamorous lifestyle all thanks to her high-powered mother. Evidently her perfect world seems to be a lie when it comes crashing down as her mother's secrets come to the light, forcing her to face reality. Now having all of her family's assets cleared she's every bit of confused on what to do. With nowhere else to turn, Jojo is forced to leave behind everything she knows and move across a plethora of states to live with her father, a man she barely knows due to distance, and his new family. Learning to balance the shift in culture and the chaos of her first year in college all in one, Jojo struggles to adjust to her circumstances and blend into a world where her privilege no longer holds any weight. Things grow even more complicated when she meets Dice, her half-brother's best friend-a well mannered , street-smart young adult who seems to embody everything Jojos maternal side of the family warned her about. Dice is equally frustrating and intriguing, with a no-nonsense attitude that calls Jojo out on her unrealistic expectations. As their chemistry builds, Jojo finds herself questioning everything she thought she knew about family, loyalty, and love while Dice struggles letting Jojo take a trip to his world.

Perfect Strangers
Follow my Instagram for any updates and if you have any questions: @nikki_k123 Alex has been living the same life, with the same routine, repeating it every day. Every day is the same. The one thing she does look forward to is going to cafe de l'amour every morning on her way to school, where she sits and writes, all while seeing Carter Reed. The most popular boy at school who, surprisingly, prefers the solitary life. They go to the same cafe every day, sit at the same tables every day, and notice each other every day, yet are strangers who have never uttered a word to one another. And strangers they shall remain. Perfect strangers. But that's about to change. . . . . . I watched as he kept his eyes trained on the notebook in front of him where he aimlessly drew spirals and coils that surrounded each other, trapped each other, and suffocated each other. My eyes traced the movement of his pen, following each line he drew onto the paper. "Your tea." I snapped out of my trance and looked up, thanking Katy before she went back to the counter. I turned back and caught him looking at me. I expected him to look away and continue acting like I don't exist. Like he's always done and so have I. What I didn't expect was for him to walk right over and sit with me. "Hi, I'm Carter." PSA: This story is inspired by the Wattpad novel 'Caffeine' by @meddlingkids ALL RIGHTS RESERVEDComplete

THE SLOWEST BURN ~ wally clark x oc
Charley and I are crossing the basketball court to join today's meeting when the realization hits me: There aren't two open chairs for us. There's just one. Everyone looks up as we approach, including whoever is filling my usual seat. Holy shit. I turn to Charley wide-eyed. "I tried to tell you," he mutters under his breath. He then composes himself and smiles at our new member. "Kaitlyn, this is Wally. Sorry, he's not the most, uh, subtle guy, and it's a big event to meet someone new here." He's covering for me, because Charley damn well knows exactly what is going through my head, and it's not just surprise at seeing a new face. It's because it's HER. Kaitlyn Sands is here. Kaitlyn fucking Sands. The girl I've been trying so hard not to have a huge goddamn crush on. And she can finally see me.
Between the Days and Nights ✔
"So I can ask you anything?" I gulp a large amount of saliva. "Yes, I'm a virgin." She doesn't even turn to see my reaction, which is a blank face, blinking in bewilderment. Not what I expected but good to know. "Why did you think I was going to ask that?" "I don't like assumptions, but if I am at a party like this hosted by a person that I've heard enough for you to be, I would think you'd look into hooking up with someone by the end of the night." She turns over, finally, with the light of the moon sparkling in her eyes. "By the way," she says with a grin, "No thanks." Tam is just trying to stay in her own lane as she lives with the constant bullying of her ex-bff, Natasha. She puts on a strong face to keep from worrying her Vietnamese-only speaking mother. When two of the most popular jocks in school fall for her, she finds herself in a tough spot.

Meanwhile, she has to deal with a past that she's ignored for much too long, bringing up old wounds to fix new ones.Complete
