Lyla Grace Brown is your typical All American Girl. Full of sickly sweet charm, southern hospitality, and a natural knack for sweet talking, Lyla's spent her life doing what everyone around her wants her to do. Whether it be helping her dad organize events for her families church, or wearing some stupid dress just to make her invasive mother happy, Lyla always swallows her pride, and her sanity, to be a good girl. 

She's a good girl, she always has been. But lately a voice in her head's been telling her that bad girls have a hell of a lot more fun. 



Meet Lilith King, the voice, who doesn't take shit from anybody, and never has. She's been a rebel ever since the day she was born, which makes sense considering the fact she was born out of wedlock, which was the scandal of the century in her mom's small conservative community. When her parents decide to move back to their hometown of West Granby to raise Lilith's new baby sister, she forms a plan and sticks to it. Get in, tolerate her mother's rules, and get out. 

Lilith has no intentions of planting down any roots whatsoever, but when a breath of fresh air named Lyla soars into her galaxy, Lilith's solar system suddenly has a new center. 



Over the course of one life changing summer, Lyla and Lilith's very different songs intertwine and blossom into a fascinating, funny, and swoon worthy duet. 

But will Lyla let her faith and fear of disappointing her parents get in the way of her feelings for the new girl in town? 

Will Lilith put aside her fears of commitment and vulnerability for a gorgeous girl who just so happens to be the preacher's daughter? 

Buckle your seatbelts ladies and gentlemen, this might get interesting.

56 parts Complete
"Cassie," Aaron says. "I have detention. For two hours." My mouth drops open. "Fuck me," I groan. "Sorry," he smirks. "But you're not my type." --------- Cassandra Parker isn't looking for male attention; she just wants to make it through her last year of high school at Hilltop High with her two friends, Gracie and Gabs. But when she makes a deal with her parents to wear more gender tailored clothes, she is officially placed on the radar of almost every male at her school, including Aaron Brewer's. Aaron Brewer is a player in almost every sense of the word, sleeping with girls and then dropping them the next morning. All that changes when he meets Cass, who doesn't fall at his feet like the other girls. They grow closer, sleeping--innocently--together, partaking in almost-kisses and a variety of other things, but when a secret is revealed to Cass by two of the most important people in her life, loyalties are tested and boundaries are crossed as a person from her past infiltrates her present and threatens her future. ~~~ *Not edited* -- also, i literally wrote this book when i was like. 15? finished it when I was like 16? and then never touched it again. PLEASE cut me some slack! (i will eventually get around to editing it) cover by @txmbxy-ish
Princess and Trouble (girlxgirl) by plzreadme
16 parts Complete
Two girls, two different walks of life, one love story. Dakota Springson was a princess. Not an actual princess, but you know the type. Rich parents, good looks, got everything she wanted when she wanted it. Everything she did she was good at: sports, school work, music. There was nothing she couldn't do. Everyone wanted to be her. And she knew it. Alex Brown's middle name was trouble. Not really, but you know the type. Tragic backstory, criminal record and bad temper. It was the combination which screamed 'stay away' and everyone did. She did drugs, got into fights and never paid attention in class. The only reason her enrolment hadn't been terminated was because even the principal was afraid of her. The pair come from completely different walks of life. But what happens when Trouble meets the Princess? This is girlxgirl. If you don't like that kinda thing, then please don't read it.

The Good Girl Boxer by maybooks04

COMPLETED BUT EDITING ~~~~🌸~~~~ "Look who joined us boys. If it isn't the GG herself." I rolled my eyes and taped my hands as one of the annoying jocks sauntered my way. "What are you doing here GG? Book club is in the other hallway." I heard his little group laugh and I stood up once I was done taping my hands. Standing at my full height I was only up to his nose, but I didn't care, "You know maybe if your egotistical head wasn't shoved so far up your butt, maybe you could actually make some friends who like you." I turned on my heel and walked to an open mat when the jock who I had just insulted, grabbed my shoulder and turned me to face him, "You can not speak to me like that you Good Girl." I was getting so tired of the nick name, "Then fight me and see how much of a 'Good Girl' I really am." ~~~~🌸~~~~ When Daytona Lyn literally runs into Logan Wylde, things kind of start to go down hill from there. She gets threatened, deceived, and it all takes a toll on her for the worst. Someone even makes it their personal goal to see her suffer to the point of no return. Between the lies, deception, hurt, and everything else that could possibly go wrong in her life, will Logan be able to save her, or will she be too far gone? ******************** #58 in Drama- 09/16/18 #45 in Romance- 07/11/19 #31 in Teen Fiction- 04/14/18 #8 in Teen Fiction- 11/28/18 #3 in Drama -07/24/19 #2 in Humor- 10/3/18 Copyright @maybooks04
