Losing the love of my life taught me that inactions have consequences. My new bookkeeping job teaches me that numbers don't lie, but people do. Sharing yoga with others is my refuge from the darkness pulling me to stay home. A ginormous pro football player barging into my classes isn't in my rehab plan. Worse, it's the cocky jerk who treats me like I'm too insignificant to remember. If only I could say the same. Sam Pearson is Houston's golden, champion-winning quarterback. He's arrogant, rude, and reckless. His agent, my brother, thinks I can rehabilitate his injured shoulder and spiraling ego to achieve a long-term contract. I think Sam needs a reality smack in his handsome face. I should hate his rebellious distractions, but I can't stop challenging him out of his comfort zone. After losing most of myself along with my other half, Sam's woken me up inside. He challenges me, irritatingly, which is exciting and scary. He's dangerously close to cracking open my closed-off heart, revealing the secrets holding me back. And yet, he might also be the second chance at love I thought I didn't deserve.

"Daniel please-" He growled cutting me off mid sentence; making it obvious that he's pissed beyond belief. I never knew that telling him my past would upset him, at least not like this. I thought that after all we've been through, after everything that we have told and done together, that it would be okay to open up to him. I've never told anyone this before and when I finally do, to Daniel Tyson, he gets more mad than I have ever seen anyone in my whole life. His body snaps towards me; his normally bright eyes are dark and full of emotion and his face is hard with anger. "Why didn't you tell me?!" Danny exclaims, making me flinch. "I'm so sorry, I thought-" I sob and his hands wrap around my wrist and yank. "You thought what?!" More hot tears go down my face. "I-" "You thought that I wouldn't care? That I wouldn't understand? Why can't you get it through your thick skull that I will ALWAYS care about you Nida?!" Suddenly, Danny's lips are crashed into mine. ••• Nida Vargas has been through hell and back trying to look out for her family and take care of herself at the same time. Ever since she started high school, it's been all about getting into college and making a better life for herself. Her family up and moved to Cleveland as a senior in high school and she's more focused than ever about school and only school. Until Daniel Tyson stumbled into her life, the schools star quarterback and most popular guy in school. The two most unlikely people to have any sort of connection: the New Mexican-American girl and the star quarterback. But the longer they know each other, the more their lives change for the better.

Pumpkin and Plum by SowmyaVenkatesan1

I am Sam, a 17-year-old in my junior year, weighing 200 pounds. I am fat; calling me fat is an understatement. I am obese. If you call getting a straight A+ in algebra and trigonometry a nerd, well! I am a nerd too. I would be lying if I said that I was never hurt when people called me a 'fatty nerd'. I was hurt. Additionally, being best friends with Mia attracts a lot of bullies. Mia is a blonde. Well, that describes her. She is a blonde through and through. Let me describe her in detail. She has shiny golden blonde hair, startling blue eyes, a sharp nose, and full lips. Did I mention she won 'Miss Teen California'? She is a beauty with no comparison. She is my best friend and won't let anyone bully me. So people calling me fat doesn't bother me anymore. Actually, it makes me happy, seeing the indignation and anger from Mia. She makes me feel special. I would be a fool if I didn't fall in love with this girl. Oh! Yes, I forgot to mention. I love Mia. And she doesn't know that.

Side Note: I Think I Love You by authordayajames

Side note: never fall for your fake boyfriend. When my best friend convinced me to write a love letter to my crush, I didn't expect it to all go south. Because instead of the most realistic scenario-him reading the letter and rejecting me privately-the last thing I'd ever expected to happen did. The letter doesn't end up in his locker. But in the locker of one of the most popular football players in the senior class, Ian Bale. Who also just happens to be my crush's older brother. Luckily, he promises to keep it a secret. But our actions start spreading rumors about us and in the next minute, I'm thrown into a fake relationship. But it works out for the both of us. Ian saves me from potential embarrassment while I help get his friends off his back about his dating life (or lack thereof). However, as the month progresses, I find myself enjoying more and more of his company. From his cheesy pick-up lines to his sense of wonder and even his nerdy glasses. My priorities begin to shift and I can't help but be a little terrified of the prospect of trusting another guy again. But I think I can make an exception. For fans of Jenny Han, Cookie O'Gorman, and happily ever afters with a sprinkling of real world problems, get ready to dive into the first installment of this beachside romance.
