Colton has five months to live. Not long for this world, he's willing to make Evie, the homeless girl's life, more meaningful than his has ever been. He brings her into his home, inculcates her to be a better person.
When Evie falls in love with his step-brother, Colton wishes he had never introduced her to him. The dreadful thing is, he is falling in love with her, and it saddens him because he doesn't have the strength to fight back for her love.
Looking back at his life, there has been nothing worth fighting for and would this be worth the risk?

The Bad Boy Saved Me
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?Complete

Baby Steps
Eden College student Josephine "Jo" Hayes is trying to get through her senior year without any hiccups. She has somehow made it through the past three years without any serious friend or boy drama, and she intends to keep it that way, especially after her difficult high school experience. All she wants is to spend time with her friends, party while she's still young, and get top grades to prepare her for law school. There's simply no time for anything serious in the world of Jo. Colton Cavanaugh is a recent transfer to Eden College, where he is expected to take on the role as star player of the Eden Eagles, their hockey team. He has a reputation as a player, and his charm and good looks do nothing to help save the girls of Eden from heartbreak. But Colton couldn't care less; his only goals for the year are getting barely-passing grades, go pro, and party. A lot. When the two first cross paths, the experience is rather unpleasant, leaving them both with a sour impression of each other. Jo thinks Colton is an arrogant and childish, and Colton sees Jo as argumentative and stubborn. But as they continue to run into each other, will their feelings change?
