As a child Elaine has always been taught to feel sympathy towards others. Being the only child of a highly respected social worker, Elaine always followed her mother everywhere. Watching her work with children to make their lives better.
Now 16 years old, Elaine has seen more grief, anguish and pain in her 16 years of living than anyone. She is constantly looking for the good side in people and trying to fix and make everyone's lives better.

16 year old Devon has lived his entire life dealing with sorrow and pain. A result of a mistake and enduring 15 years of abuse because of it, he's learned to lock up his heart, waiting for the day he turns eighteen and would leave the home he'd been placed in.
A meeting with Elaine who is so unlike the negative people he'd known during his lifetime leaves his heart slowly thawing. And as he's about to find out, sometimes the remedy to a frozen heart is Christmas, children, and a certain girl who finds a way to see the goodness he's long forgotten he had in himself.All Rights Reserved

Home by justagirldreaming

Her world falls apart, her heart breaks, her faith is gone, because so is her family and so is her home. Lost and alone, it's Zach that finds her. It's his curiosity that spikes, his interest that is peaked. It's his heart that is captured in just a glance. The feeling may be mutual, but it is only Allie who finds her self constantly wondering if it is really better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all, because these days, she is not so sure.

My Glass Angel by DarkeningSkies

Snow Richards is a shy seventeen year old girl. She's always kind of blended into the background, though she's never had a problem with that. Her life has been the opposite of easy in every way and she didn't need to bring attention to that. She hated it when other people pitied her and looked down on her. It was just better not to be looked at. Her mother died in a car accident when she was ten, leaving her father to care for both her and her younger brother Rain, who was seven years younger than her. Only a year ago she had found out her father had cancer, watching as it slowly killed her father right in front of her eyes. To top it off, she was picked on in school all the time. The name Snow was never a popular one. Since her mother died, Snow had become the mother of the family. She cared for her father when he was sick and practically raised her brother. Now she needed a job to keep them afloat, medical bills suffocating them. Finally she finds one as a maid/cook for a wealthy family: the Johnson's. Snow just wanted a job, but she was surprised by their caring son Ryan and how sweet he was to her. The whole family practically took her in. She doesn't want them to get too close though; she wouldn't pull them into her pain. Her burdens were her own. But when they keep trying to edge their way in, how will she handle it? How much more could she carry before she finally shattered like glass?

Unthinkable by ashinom123

She didn't mean for this to happen. Maybe it was the venomous thoughts that infiltrated her brain at that exact moment. Or maybe her sub-conscious self was preparing for this day forever. Whatever the reason may have been, it is now that she has to confront the underlying emotions she had pushed away for so long in ways she never thought she could. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a teen fiction novel and something I've never done before, but I hope you all enjoy!
