Mackenzie Quail bases her life on the theory that everything can and will go wrong at any given moment. It's not that her life has been all that exciting - divorced parents, pasta dinners, and a very disgruntled cat - but her patience has run out.
When an obscure charity rolls into town, Mackenzie finds herself on the list of volunteers. With absolutely no idea of what awaits her, she, in all sarcasm, can't wait. Just a month of living in an old, creepy house with homeschoolers more numerous than rats and life changing secrets around every corner. But, come on, what could go wrong?

### Book Summary Elise Hartley has spent her entire life perfecting the art of being everything everyone expects her to be. A gifted ballet dancer, an early high-school graduate, and a girl with a carefully planned future, Elise believes she knows exactly where her life is headed-until one rejection leaves her questioning everything she's worked for. Then she meets Nolan. He's confident, ambitious, and seemingly determined to challenge every belief Elise has about herself. What begins as an unexpected friendship slowly becomes something neither of them planned for, and for the first time, Elise begins to wonder what it feels like to be wanted simply for who she is. But life has a way of changing the plans we cling to most. When one unexpected moment forces Elise to grow up faster than she ever imagined, the future she once feared losing becomes the least of her worries. Caught between ballet, family, love, and a decision that will change everything, Elise must learn that being unwanted by someone doesn't mean she is unwanted by the world. Sometimes, the life you never planned becomes the one worth fighting for.
Passing Notes (Undergoing Editing)
Greetings, readers! This book is currently undergoing revision, so if you see a bunch of notifications for this book, or if you remember something that isn't there anymore, that's probably why. However, I plan on writing new chapters as well, so be sure to check! --- #6 in #passingnotes #4 in #passingnotes -- 12/27/24 --- It's not easy being the new kid. Autumn Bolk knows the feeling well. She's been "the new kid" about five million-gazillion times by now, thanks to her dad being re-stationed about every two years. It's pretty much the same every time: - pack up (only the important stuff!) - move houses - find a church - settle in (comfy) - find a friend (or two) - leave again (try to keep in touch) Number five million-gazillion and one shouldn't be any different. Right? Wrong. What if, this time, her friends are more than just contacts on her phone list? What if her church family really feels like family? What if she doesn't want to leave this time?
Secrets, Lies and Dragonflies

But when an evening of rule bending kicks off a chain of unfortunate events, Mackenzie's carefully constructed world begins to unravel. And that mysterious mountain boy isn't making things any easier. Meanwhile, her strange Art History class taught by even stranger teachers embarks on a field trip, taking the concept of strange to a whole new level. Was learning how to track evil creatures even on the course syllabus? With chunks of memories missing, Mackenzie's world falls deeper into chaos. For her little brother's sake, she can no longer hide behind her books. Facing enemies, old and new, she must act or lose the very thing she's tried so hard to protect. Secrets must be kept. Lies must be told. Monsters must be stopped.Complete
The Cupcake Theory
HIGHEST RANK #27 IN HUMOR Life is full of lessons that we need to remember, for Mackenzie (also known as Mace or that girl with snacks ) life seems like a boring routine. Her love life is as alive as a corpse With her best friend happily in love with his sweet girlfriend, her nonexistent bad boy is more like an obnoxious jerk rather than a rebel and the golden boy has friend zoned her to many times (82 and counting.) Throw in stupid revenge plots, a love triangle that makes no sense, beneficial food fights and midnight Kmart rampages, you are left which a couple theories to question if you really know what life is about. But first, you have to make a mistake...it all started with a cupcake --- "Did you really take 16 cupcakes from the shop yesterday? " "Maybe.." I look to see them staring at me in disbelief "Do you really need 16 cupcakes?" Their eyes flicker between the box of cupcakes and me who has half of one stuffed in my mouth. Hastily I swallow "Okay, to be fair she was going to throw all 24 beautiful delicious cupcakes in the bin. It's a waste and a criminal offence to chuck out something so tasty. So I just happened to volunteer to take them home... without anyone knowing..." I lick some of the buttercreams that had fallen onto my hand. "I believe that's called stealing," a voice says from behind me. WARNING lots of cheesy jokes, embarrassing moments and foodComplete

The It Girl [COMPLETED]
"This book is the perfect mixture of deep and hilarious. I'm in love with that" - crackhead4ever Teen fiction has given cheerleaders a bad rap. And stereotypical appearances. Courtney knows this. She is a cheerleader. Is she a pretty blonde with blue eyes? Well, yes. Is she popular and perky? ...okay. Yes, again. Is she stuck up and cruel to others for no reason? Ha! There! No to that one. In fact, she's worked for years to portray the perfect image of an upbeat, easy going person. An image that gets harder to hold on to when: The new girl takes an instant dislike to her. Her best friend decides to run against her for Senior Class President. Her football team captain boyfriend breaks up with her. And, oh yeah, she humiliates herself in front of the whole school. Yup, that perfect image is falling apart.
