A life without you is a world without music.

Emma hates clichés. She's strong-willed, talented, and (more importantly) desperate to escape the small town she grew up in. Now, in her senior year of high school, she's managed to avoid opening her heart to anyone. But when she discovers the dark secret of her brother's best friend, her year takes an unexpected turn.

Jake spent his childhood pining over his best friend's twin sister. But now they're 17 years old and he's the epitome of everything she hates - he's the quarterback of the high school football team, he dates her arch-nemesis, and he's (unknowingly) the reason she stopped playing cello in front of people. But when his harrowing past catches up with him, will Emma see him in a new light or will the darkness come between them for good?

Olivia and Ricky's Odyssey to Rock Bottom by MariaJoWrites
123 parts Complete Mature
Accused of an assault he doesn't remember, Ricky's senior year is made doubly complicated when he falls for the victim's best friend, Olivia - his only alibi. *** Growing up among New York's high society seems glamorous from the outside, but looks can be deceiving. 17-year-old Ricky, who's cultivated a long list of rumors because of his bad boy behavior, knows this first-hand. But when he's wrongly accused of sexually assaulting a classmate, things take a turn. Especially when discovering the victim's best friend, Olivia, is his only alibi. With feelings quickly growing stronger between them, Ricky can't help falling for Olivia's kind nature, yet complications lurk around every corner, made worse still by the dark secret Ricky's been hiding for years, and his biggest fear is someone uncovering the truth behind the bad rumors. What will happen to Olivia and Ricky when the secret finally comes out? It's a long way down from high society to rock bottom. Content Warning: This story is a depiction of real life. It, therefore, contains mature content in the form of sexual assault, explicit language, violence (involving minors), sex, drinking, and drug use. Just like real life does. By continuing, you understand you'll be reading themes of a more mature nature, and that some might be triggering. (16+) Readers say: "I love this book with all my heart! - Absolutely worth its price." "I haven't been able to put it down!" "Olivia and Ricky are really melting my heart."

They've lived together; they've lived apart. Turns out you can miss someone terribly, even if they're just across the room. * * a/n: Most of the story takes place in 2020/21, and while I strove to stay true to real-life events/ timelines, there may be instances where creative license presides. Comments and feedback are more than welcome. Enjoy!
