Bluebeard Southern Gothic Retelling

It's been so, so long since she's known someone who was kind. Alexandra is running, finally.

After a relationship that has caused so much pain has finally reached it's peak, she has finally left. 

She finds herself in a small town in Texas. It smells like fresh peaches, new blossoms, warm pies and so much hope she could bury herself in it. 

This town, however, harbors a dark secret. Darker than, perhaps, what she is running so far from. And she may not survive it.All Rights Reserved

My Shattered Soul by MyGhostWritersADoll

Alex is a 17-year-old girl recovering from a recent near-death experience. She's been forced into a strange new world where she discovers that the age-old folktales and myths of magical creatures are actually true, though not quite as accurate as she would have thought. These creatures live among us, and as a newly- changed vampire, she is now one of them. Alex has always struggled with depression, neglect, and isolation that have defined her identity, and now make it difficult for her to ever feel "normal." She makes friends with other magical beings that give her the strength to face her inner demons and provide her with a sense of belonging and the willpower she may need to face off against a group of political extremists from shifting the balance of humanity. Should she fail, humanity's existence will be in jeopardy and she could be lost forever.

It does have around 40 chapters so it might not seem like it. But trust me that it is.] ||Full Disclosure|| I started the book in the end of 8th grade so it needs MAJOR editing. It also does have Sexual Chapters, as well as people of the same sex being together, murder, brutally torture talk of rape and sexual harassment. So if you do not wish to read things like that then this unfortunately isn't the book for you. ||You Have Been Warned|| First book in the Heart series. •Do Not Copy This Book In Anyway•

Glass [ENG] by Ovskaa

You know that story by heart, don't you? The story about a boy straight from the magazine, about a new girl, not like other girls... And the story about that one Queen Bee, the queen of terror, who wanted to have everything and everyone under control. Whose passion seemed to be torturing other students and holding them in a painful, totalitarian grip. The one someone finally got rid of. Once and for all. But she didn't disappear. She wasn't gone with the blow of the wind. She wasn't pushed out of existence when everything went back to normal. Her story carries on... And has more darkness than meets the eye. "Because good punishes evil, Wanting to hurt it. But little does it know, Evil comes from pain."
