He is determined to become a kinder person and change the impression he leaves in people's minds - especially in Stacey's.

While Hal is on his journey, Stacey realises her own ambitions, and a future where Hal Bishop is more than someone she once wrote about.

"Tell me. Why won't you tell me?" He asks and I look towards him slowly, "You didn't even talk to me until yesterday! I'm trying to make it so nobody notices me, Kingston. I don't need this." I say and he slowly turns my face towards him, closing my locker and pinning me up against it. "What if I need you?" He asks and I roll my eyes. "Nice one, Hamlet." I say, walking away from him.

Unfamiliar Territory by BecJohnson

Mac Stephens' last birthday was spectacular, for all the wrong reasons. Being unceremoniously dumped with no explanation and then fired from a job she actually enjoyed on the same day that she turned thirty, was enough to send her running straight back home and into the arms of her adoring father. But that was six months ago, and it's time she moved on. Mackinley River Downs has been in the Stephens family for generations, however, it's now also part of a government investigation and Felix Anderson, the broodingly handsome resident manager is forced to do the one thing he swore he'd never do, ask the owner for help. In a dodgy hotdog induced delirium Mac agrees she owes her father a favour and takes off to the other side of the world to help save a business she knows absolutely nothing about, in surroundings she's never seen anything like before. Sparks fly and frustrations burn on the search for common ground in unfamiliar territory.

The Hairdresser Diaries by JessicaLMillerauthor

For Tatum, love has always been something to keep at a distance. It was easier and it was safer. As an independent young woman, she is content to enjoy a life split casually between friends and her career. Her life changes one night when by chance she meets the mysterious Cole and finds herself irresistibly drawn to him. Almost instantly he leaves a lingering impression on her that is so perfect it's terrifying. Soon she isn't sure what she wants and finds it impossible to get him off her mind. It's everything about him. It's the scent of him that lingers, the closeness of his breath, the slightest touch of his skin and the blue of his eyes that makes her very soul ache. The last thing she wants is to admit to love and the inevitable complications that come with it. But it isn't long before her inability to reconcile what her heart wants sends her life spiraling out of her control and she becomes trapped in a dance of giving in and running away. Before two people can share their lives, they need to face their past.
