She was sent to boarding school over the smallest of mistakes...

Okay, burning down your schools gym might have been a big one. But she didn't mean to do it. This time. And she's certainly no snitch. 

She's had a fine life. But she wanted something more. And so she created chaos. 

She was misjudged and misunderstood. 

And now she's the havoc of Birchwood Prep. They call her the devil's bitch, the principal's worst nightmare, and a screwed up whore. 

They can think what they want, JJ Ashton has heard these all throughout high school. She doesn't want a future, she just wants to take control of now. She's everything Birchwood Prep doesn't want, but is deemed to get after her Father decided it was the only option for her to find some discipline. 

She's not going to make it that easy for them. 


Gideon Andrews is the perfect student. Good grades, never missed a day, and never had been in trouble of any sort. He thinks life is great, but meeting JJ, she thinks life for him could be better. Less plain and vanilla. 

He hates her guts. It's mutual for her as well. 

But the headmaster has made it Gideon's personal mission to get her back on track and into a better life. She's allowed two screw ups, has to join a sports team, pass all of her classes with at least a C and get some friends before the year is over, or she will be held back. 

And she's not about to go another year in the hellhole called high school.

Can a bully always hurt others and not get hurt on the way? After all what goes around comes around.

Two Trouble makers, have finally fully pissed off not only all their teachers but their parents too. In total that only equaled one thing... Boarding school... Not in the shitty part of Denver but the nice part of Denver. Finney Blake. A typical seventeen year old boy... Besides the fact that he attempted to burn down the school twice, smokes a lot, and loves to annoy the crap out of his teachers and dad. Finney didn't grow up exactly with sunshine and rainbows considering he lost his mom to suicide at only six years old. He also grew up on the shitty side of Denver, the side where crimes were normal, the side where no one gave a fuck. That was normal, until he not only got caught smoking, but trying to light some kid on fire... Fun... Robin Arellano. That one tough seventeen year old kid to not ever mess with unless you want to look deformed for the rest of your life. Robin didn't mess with shit. He had girls fawning over him every step he went. Not that it bothered him. Finney Blake bothered him, Finney just did with his annoying laugh and stupid smirk he had at parties when he as was high. Robin just didn't mess with Finney, like ever. And Finney didn't mess with him... Well until they got sent to Brookesville Boarding School, that's when he just wanted to mess with him... But the only reason Robin got sent was he finally had sent the tenth kid to a hospital for busting him up real bad... *WARNING BTW* So if you're reading this i'm trying something a bit new, so more detailed stuff...If you have read my other things...

A NOT SO INNOCENT 'NERD' Sebastian Fernández called as 'Nerd' in their school despite not really a 'Nerd',yeah he's smart but he doesn't want to be called like that especially when he doesn't even wore some 'nerdy' clothes and glasses because of his twin said so that he'll be freaking good to wear simple but gorgeous shirt or some shits like that, anyways... Sebastian the 'Nerd' has a secret though, he's GAY,yeah fucking gay for one and only Kylle Winston who's also his crush for a long time now.

But destiny seems to play with him,he kept meeting new people and got hooked up on them,like Arkie Lewis Augustine who has been stalking him and eventually 'Forced' him to be his boyfriend. What do you think will happen to Sebastian?Will he let himself get manipulated or move away from the toxic people? _________________________________ "Life is short,you have to date whoever you meet" ________________________________ This book might contains some; •Error(yeah since English is not my first language so forgive me and correct me if I'm wrong) •SMUT(yeah I know what you're thinking,but don't report me, I'm begging hehe) •Strong Languages(I mean,some curses like 'fuck','shit',or something like that) •Drugs and Smoke •Cringe(hehe,yeah) •LGBTQ+ •GAY(BL)

After one year of hell, nightmares and pain, she's completely done. She's desperate for a room on the other side of the country with one simple demand; that her host is a female. So when she ends up being a he, what does Hayden do? During the wait to switch place, she grows quite attached to the care, kindness, humor, simplicity and courage the five boys show her. She grows attached to the stubbornness and love that feed their will not to give up on including her in everything. So what happens when the paralyzing book of her nightmares once more opens and is read out loud for not only her, but now, also those five boys? Easy. She tries running away again. But... She underestimates the love that those boys have towards her, because they're willing to do everything and anything, except letting her go. Except letting her remain broken. They're gonna do everything and anything, to Fix Her. And who knows? Maybe, despite the lies, the broken hearts, tears, and that one man behind everything, things can get better? Maybe, the strong love of five boys, each one different from the other, can force its way through the thick walls around Her? Or maybe... Fear will end up being stronger than love?
