Once upon a time, smartphones were not essential, and wifi did not exist.
Can you imagine what you could do with your time without endless video scrolling?
You, yes you, the one with this book in your hand. You look perfect for the task. A task that Regina George wannabes Lauren and Sophie couldn't do. 
Ashley needs friends. The ones who love her for being herself, and you seem perfect for the job. But not now. We are taking an adventure and heading back to 2004. 

Relive the days when teenagers stayed out until the streetlamps turned on. When music was great, fashion changed daily, and life was simple. I said simple, not easy. 

Never been kissed, sixteen-year-old Ashley Prince wants to be popular like her friends. Well, she thought she did. So much so that she lost her identity in doing what she was told by Regina George wannabes and her overbearing parents.
Constantly babysitting and never having fun, missing out on all those truths, dares, and spin-the-bottle games.
But then Olly moves in next door. 
It isn't until her eyes set on him that her heart sets on fire, and sparks fly when they cross paths. He is like no one she has met before, not only handsome but kind. And with a new friend like that, her confidence soars. 
Meeting Olly not only saves her life but changes it forever. But is he so perfect? 
Kyle has something to say about that. Who's Kyle
Well, there has to be a villain, doesn't there? Is it him? The badass, moody skater boy? Or is it the bullies, her parents, or somebody else?  
Grab your flares, skateboard, boombox, and alcopops and walk the streets till dusk, roam the school grounds, party and break a few rules along the way. 
Can Ashley break free and discover that there is more to popularity and find her true self? Let's find out how Ashley's summer turns out with the boy next door. 

Content/Trigger warning: This book mentions self-harm and depression in minor detail and coming-of-age experiences.

The Fate of Our Hearts by LNRoberts1

♡I was shocked to see whose still bewitching eyes had just accidentally met with mine. Giovanni! A boy, a crush, and one fantastic kiss. I thought I'd never see him again. ♡Dual POV ♡ It's the mid-90s on the West Coast: grunge music, mix tapes, pagers, skateboarding and baggy clothes. Lauren, an ordinarily shy 8th-grade girl, risks the first move to approach her long-time elusive crush, Gio, a gorgeous and mysterious outsider who has a secret crush of his own. The night of the school dance, they get exactly what they dreamed of: a first dance, a first kiss...but the timing isn't on their side, and the budding relationship slips through their fingers. Fast-forward to her junior year-the worst year of her life so far-and Lauren feels anything but confident. Gio reemerges at school after a three-year absence, and the unexpected encounter sends tremors through both of their lives. But their attraction to each other is as intense as ever, and interactions between them heat up quickly. However, Gio's school life is a disaster, and he harbors a secret he won't share, but it's the truth that Lauren keeps from him that really threatens to tear their young romance apart. "This is a great teen romance with angst, humor, and two incredible main characters. Ren is the friend I would have loved to have growing up, and Gio . . . well, he is just teen crush perfection! Also, it's set in the late nineteen nineties, which was my own teenage era, so I love revisiting the nostalgia of that time! " -Polly Ford. "This is a heartwarming and nostalgic read that will take you back to the late nineties, where we follow Ren, who is so relatable, as she comes of age on her journey with the swoon-worthy Giovanni, who will make your heart melt several times! Their journey is emotional, passionate, and both heart-wrenching and heart-warming-such a beautiful book! " - Heidi Carroll.

Friends Forever, huh? by findingjuls

A love letter to the populars, the awkwards, the depressed, the third wheels. Anyone reading this--this is for you. To everyone that feels unimportant, left out, or never chosen...Ashley knows exactly what that's like. Every single best friend she's had has left for one reason or another. The most notable of these is Cole--the boy she knew practically her whole life until he moved away and was seemingly disinterested in continuing a friendship. When he reappears, will they get a second chance at friendship? Or perhaps something more? [potential trigger warning: themes of bullying, depression, and self harm] [ranked #230 in Teen Fiction]

His Sunshine | ✓ by pink_flamingo_09

She looks up at me, taking a step forward and smiling slightly, "How can I ever get hurt when I have you here to protect me?" "But you could have gotten hurt," I murmur softly, hanging my head and feeling my shoulders drop, the tension seeping from my body. "No. Stop," She cuts me off sternly but tenderly, "Don't talk like that, Reece. I'm okay, you're okay, we're okay," She speaks softly, reaching her hand up to gently brush her thumb over my cheek, just under the cut that's there. "We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart. I know she can feel how fast my heart is beating. I just don't know why it's doing that. ~ Reece Carter is the bad boy of Northwood High. He smokes and he fights. He has countless tattoos covering his body. And he doesn't care about anything or anyone else. Layla Stevens is your average seventeen year-old girl, just trying to get through high school, with the friends she loves and doing the things she loves. When these two cross paths accidentally in an unusual way, they leave and never expect to speak to each other again. But fate has other plans. Layla finds her way into Reece's life and Reece doesn't know what to do about it. This ray of Sunshine suddenly meant something to him. She understood him when it seemed like no one else did. And he protected her from everyone who tried to hurt His Sunshine. Get ready for a story filled with bad pick-up lines, twin telepathy and a lot of fighting. Like, a LOT. Thanks for that one, Reece.

Altered by LuellaOpal

Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.

The Bad Boy Saved Me by Pentatonix21

Do you ever wonder what life would be like if it were a movie? Or some sappy romance novel that you wish your life could be like but it's not? Sometimes you may even get to caught up in the fictional world that you don't realise it IS fictional. Then when you do realise life isn't what you convinced yourself it would be, there is only one possible outcome. Depression. Which may lead to anxiety, self-harm, low self esteem, and worst of all, losing the people you love. Life works in weird ways. Not just for you but for others too. Take Cassidy Rivers for example. Her life is far from perfect. No parents, over protective big brother, few friends, and Asher Norman, the bad boy who won't stop picking on her. Could life get any worse for Cassidy?

The Other Guy (BoyxBoy) ✔️ by geekiechicforall13

"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl? Will he fall short? Or will he fall into the arms of a guy who is in love with the girl he loves? _______________________________________ WARNING: First book EVER! The best part about this book is that it has some funny bits and introduces you to characters I use for a while. But, if you don't like the writing, please consider one of my newer works 😊 Started: May 10, 2016 Completed: September 2016

In Every Way by Taylor_anonymous

Avery has spent her entire life with a one track mind: Dance. When her training and focus finally pays off and she is accepted to one of the most prestigious dance academy's in the nation, she doesn't hesitate to leave her life back home for a chance at being the best. There's not much she wouldn't do or leave behind for the opportunity, which doesn't surprise anyone because she's been doing it since she first put on a pair of ballet shoes. School, boys, friends, family; it all became nonexistent as her number one priority, always, is her training. After she picks up and leaves to attend The Motion Dance Academy in California, she quickly realizes her time there will be a challenge. Between the hierarchy amongst peers and abuse of power from instructors there are countless personal struggles that ballerina's who train the way these girls do have to deal with day in and day out. And while Avery is able to juggle the high demands and expectations of her training at TMDA, meeting a boy is not something she saw coming. A dance-lif balance is something she doesn't know how to maintain, but after all these years, is more than willing to try... for him. Cooper, a wildly talented guitarist who plays in a band is everything she should stay away from with his tattoos, piercings, long bleached hair and that smile of his. But she quickly learns Cooper is a lot more than he appears on the outside. He is an aspiring singer-songwriter whose is struggling to break from his band and produce his own original music. Avery finds a way for them to work together in the upcoming fall showcase where she needs to stand out in her solo and he can break in to getting his songs out there for the world to hear. In Every Way is a story that dives deep into the dance industry and what it's really like to have the pressures of being a professional ballerina while intertwining original lyrics from a musician who is inspired by the girl in the pointe shoes.

Unchain Me by caity007

'I had guilt that ate me out from the inside and made me want to throw up. Guilt that started as a young child and continued to fester until I was doomed to break. I knew that one day I would shatter like glass. I just wasn't sure if anyone would be able to put the pieces of me back together.' ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ashley Summers is the Bloomingfield Highs resident goodgirl/nerd, complete with absolutely no friends and a book for company. However guys could be throwing themselves at her because she is really one of the hottest girls at school, but her bookish tendencies and social low keep them away.

It seems that while Adrian is searching for answers to the puzzle that is Ashley Summers he finds more than just her secrets. He could also find the key to her heart, a place where no person has truly seen before. Which is to say that Ashley Summers is in for some interesting events before the year is over. ---------------------------------------------------

Serendipity by vintxqe_kc

Oh, the life of a teenage girl. It seems like high school never gets easier especially when it comes to love. Happiness was like a diamond, rare until she found someone that made her happy without even expecting it. She will learn what love really is, the challenges that come with it, and how far she will go for someone she truly cares about. *This is a fictional story* *Some profanity included* Disclaimer: This story is structured like my past and made to represent my love life but in a fictional sense.
