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.

Fate of our Hearts : a 1990s YA Romance
♡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.

The Other Guy (BoyxBoy) ✔️
"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!
