To her in particular. The only saving grace? She thinks she may have found a real-life superhero. A silvery vigilante who repeatedly comes to her rescue, complete with powers she can't quite explain. The thing is, superheroes don't exist. At least not in Mikaela's version of reality. But she is about to have her already complicated life turned upside down because the more she tries to stay away, the closer to danger she gets. So much for a problem-free, quiet life.

Everything Has Changed
Rated: MA 18+ The familiarity of our small towns Main Street almost overwhelmed me. I never pictured I'd be back here since I left. Yet here I was again, 15 minutes from my childhood home in Greenwood. Although I never thought I'd be Hazel Campbell again but here I am. "I parked over here" Maddy lead me to the right where her car was parked in the guest spot. "It feels weird to have seasons again, it was always so hot in Miami" I sighed cracking my window. Even the air smelt nostalgic as the orange and brown leaves littered the streets. "I couldn't live over there, Greenwood has my heart even though ain't shit around" Maddy laughed as her phone went off. "Oh! It's Chris he asked what we're doing later!" "Chris.. Wilder? You guys keep in touch??" My jaw dropped slightly I hadn't heard that name in 9 years almost. I fidgeted with my fingers in my lap fighting the memories. I believed in the butterfly effect, I think I fell out of my destiny long ago and now I'm just being punished with a life where things will always fall apart. "Of course I do, you know we've always had tension" she laughed starting her car pulling out of the parking spot. "Please we should go! We can get the band back together!!" Except we'd be missing one person.. still I put a fake smile on my face and agreed to go. Chris wasn't the problem, his bitch ass best friend was. I guess you could say my ex bitch ass best friend. -------------- this book is rated 18+ and contains: Dark themes, dark romance, smoking, sex, BDSM, bad language, mentions of abuse, depression, and possibly more.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐀𝐈𝐑 𝐁𝐄𝐓𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐔𝐒
𝐆𝐀𝐁𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐀 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐑 was just trying to get to her summer internship at the hospital. Same route, same bus, same quiet daydreams about the boy who sat nearby but never close enough-untouchable, unreadable, and completely out of her league. 𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝐂𝐀𝐕𝐈𝐋𝐋 has always been out of reach. He's the golden boy of Hillcrest Academy: captain of the basketball team, top of his class, and a ghost of Gabriella's quiet admiration. To her, he's just a distant crush. To the world, he's practically perfect. But perfection means nothing when the city splits open. A sudden sinkhole. A police cordon. And a last minute diversion that takes their bus miles off course, leaving them stranded in a part of the city that doesn't exist on any map. Worse? They uncover something they were never meant to see; evidence of a powerful syndicate conducting illegal experiments on society's most vulnerable. Forced into hiding with a group of rebels and nowhere left to turn, Gabriella is trapped in close quarters with the one boy she's never been able to stop thinking about, and he's far more complex, volatile and possessive than she ever imagined. But in the pressure of confinement, chemistry ignites, jealousy simmers, and the truth might tear them apart before Aegis ever gets the chance.Complete
