It's her twenty-third birthday. Hayley's new boyfriend just said the L word and her father wants her to take over his company. So why is she running away?

Desperate to regain control, Hayley finds herself on a plane back to England, determined to stop her ex-boyfriend's wedding. Because nothing is meant to be and everything can be controlled.

Shane believes in fate. Because you can't stop the invertible from happening.

When their paths unexpectedly collide, the pair are forced to work together. She thinks he's an idiot and he thinks she's a controlling nightmare. So it's a good job that romance is totally off the cards...

On steamy, hot summer days, the parched soil cracks like ice into jagged lines resembling lightning blowing up the midnight sky. Summer craves to be quenched and begs to feel the invigorating shower that only rain can douse. It takes what it can get from rain without considering the possibility of destruction. Rain is a necessary evil. It's prayed for yet cursed and hated. It brings forth destruction and life simultaneously. Rain is a refreshing sprinkle and an overwhelming flood. It's elusive, and it alone decides when and where to release its precipitation with no regard to the impact of its power. *** Summer breezed into McGrath's Pub like a breath of fresh air. Despite her miserable day and the tepid rain dampening the streets of Harrisburg, she lit up the bar with her bright smile the moment she entered. Rain is looking for a warm body to take to his bed. He spots Summer and immediately approaches her. She has no clue about his plans for her, and he's determined to bring those plans to fruition. Summer's heart and soul were destroyed by the torrential storm that is Rain Grant. Summer is determined not to let what happened to her happen to the "Next Girl." *** "Next Girl" I bet you probably met him at a bar Let him walk you to your car I bet he said he never fell this hard Yeah, I remember that part He knows how to say all the right things Knows how to get you outta that dress Knows how to make you think you're thе best thing But I know what happens next, girl Co-written and performed by Carly Pearce *** Cover by: @zmswift 1st Place 🥇 The Carnival Awards 2021 Chick-Lit Featured in WattpadShortStory's Realistic Fiction Reading List Qualified for Round 3 of the 2023 Amby Awards

Your name is Dave Strider and you have officially lost all control over your life. You like to smoke a lot of marijuana, you tend to tap into acid here and there, and you drink more than anyone your age should. But no matter how many times people drill the phrases of 'Stay away from drugs and alcohol!' and 'Smoking kills!' into your abused head, you just... really don't care anymore.. Well, not until you meet a certain nerd who somehow manages to intrigue you that is. (POV changes throughout the story) (AN: There is a high possibility that I will change the name of the fic and change the cover, so don't be alarmed if you see it differently.) (THIS IS A TRIGGER WARNING, DON'T READ IF ANY OF THE FOLLOWING TRIGGERS YOU: STORY CONTAINS UNDERAGE DRINKING, SMOKING, AND DRUG ABUSE! I WILL ADD MORE WARNINGS AS THE STORY PROGRESSES! ALSO INCLUDES HARSH LANGUAGE, BRIEF MENTIONS OF SUICIDE THREATS, AND BULLYING!)
