"The vultures are disguised as humans."
Scarlet Turner has her last semester of high school planned out: graduate as best as she can and take care of her sick mother. But when she's told she won't graduate because of the pile of tardies she's collected over the years, she's forced to volunteer for the town's mediocre theatre rendition of Romeo and Juliet for Hales Bay's Mayor Warren. To top it all off, it's a joint production with the pompous rich kids from Lexton Prep.
Not only does Scarlet have to divide her time between school, the play, and her mother, but she has to navigate the feud between Winter Bay High and Lexton Prep. Tensions are high, everyone is tiptoeing on glass, but when Jake Miller stops her outside the auditorium with his bright smile, Scarlet is taken aback by the genuine amiability from a Preppy that she starts to intermingle with the enemy.
But when Elliot Casselbury warns her about the dangers of dipping into the Preppy side, Scarlet is thrown into a storm. She wonders if Jake will rear back with a taunting laugh and fan the flames of the feud. After all, how can a Preppy ever like a Rodent?
Envious, murderous, and covered in crimson blood.

Bitter Heart √
Caden Miller. Hot, cynical, and notoriously labelled the bad boy of Crestmont High. Attention-seekers flirt with him. Idiots fight with him. The ones who know what's good for them, stay away from him. If you fight him, you know you'll lose soon. Short-tempered, mysterious, and those oh-so-hot looks. All of that was enough for a person to fall head over heels for him. If only he cared to give a shit about them. Not when he was also the youngest gang leader in New York City, with just one mission in mind: stop his equally cynical brother from ruining his life more than he already had. Skylar Anderson. Not a nerd. Or a cheerleader. All she cares about is her workaholic (and maybe even a little dysfunctional) parents, her adorable cat and her not-so adorable best friend, and her sleep. Quite literally. Living a normal and carefree life, trying her best not to flunk Physics, there wasn't anything more that she wanted. Until she receives a letter in her mailbox... ...and that normal, carefree life goes right above the clouds. . . . "Tʜᴇ ᴘʀᴏʙʟᴇᴍ ɪꜱ," ʜᴇ ꜱᴀɪᴅ ᴀꜱ ʜᴇ ʟᴇᴀɴᴇᴅ ᴄʟᴏꜱᴇʀ, "Iғ ɪ ᴋɪꜱꜱ ʏᴏᴜ, ɪ ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ᴛʜɪɴᴋ ɪ'ᴅ ʙᴇ ᴀʙʟᴇ ᴛᴏ ꜱᴛᴏᴘ." #2 in Chick-lit #1 in Humor #7 in Romance #1 in Teen Fiction #3 in The Grace Awards 2019 Text copyright © Crystal7016 ™ 2018 Cover credits: @youtumblrgeek ✨Complete

The Way Our Hearts Flow
For as long as they can remember Cassie and Chance have been forced into each others lives. Their parents-lifelong best friends-treat them like a perfect match, but in reality, they can't stand each other. Chance thinks Cassie it too serious, always buried in a book, while Cassie thinks Chance is too cocky and carefree, always being risky. Every summer their families take vacation together at the beach, but this year is different. It's the last summer before Cassie and Chance are off to college and the tension is higher than ever. Cassie is determined to survive the trip by avoiding Chance, while Chance is set on making her summer miserable and never leaving her alone. But somewhere in between the bonfires, late-night swims, and unexpected heart-to-hearts, Chance realizes Cassie isn't as uptight as he thought. Maybe she's just fascinating. Or maybe he doesn't just like annoying her-maybe he actually likes her. As the summer sun blazes on, their hate begins to shift into something warmer-something neither of them expected. Like the ocean they reside on, they must find out all the ways their hearts can flow. ***************** Chance cups my cheek in his warm large hand and he leans in. "What do you do to me Cass?" He whispers. I suck in a sharp breath as butterflies dance in my stomach. "Chance." It comes out a breathy whisper. "My brother would kill you." He chuckles, it's deep and vibrates through his chest.

Then his lips slam onto mine in an all too overwhelming wanting sensation.Complete![His Possession✔ [BWWM+Completed] (Wattys2018)](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/102493908-256-k645000.jpg)

BerkVille: Act 3
Summer sinks into a dark void and out of it emerges the haunting masked stalker "Masquerade". Threats, blissful taunting videos displayed on various screens and the everlasting feeling of being watched. Us five, Dustin, Carson, Beth, Mandy and I, Toy, have to now face our biggest threats: the embodiment of ourselves. Taking our identities and faces, Masquerade's puppets confuse the clueless, rewrite our stories, take advantage of situations and loved ones, flipping the script. Everyone's a suspect and friends turn into foes. Lies and unspoken past secrets toss over the tides and Masquerade becomes our real life boogieman. At the front of the case is Mandy coming off solving the puzzle from summer with a false piece. She's dedicated to figuring out who's behind the mask and their motivations. Seemingly, the only path to do so is through those behind our clay face molds. But that'll prove to be challenging as we try to preserve ourselves, lives and reputation participating in Masquerade's series of twisted childlike games. In the background, a family traced with secrets brings a new level of mystery to BerkVille. And soon we start to consider the possibility of everything being connected somehow. With all this, we try to balance our day to day lives of new romances, angels, competition, being outed and its consequences, family strife, and new endeavors. Have you gotten your dress and mask for the masquerade ball?
Sweet Spot
Sierra Lancaster has had an agonizingly mediocre life. She grew up in a happy home, made loyal friends, graduated college, and is now pursuing her dream of running her own bakery. Boring, right? A story like this wouldn't be one for the books. At least not until you bring a hot neighbour into the mix. A tall, brooding, shredded (like, wash your clothes on those abs shredded), and wildly successful sports agent. Interested yet? It gets better. Said neighbour isn't just a rando, but Sierra's childhood nemesis that made her formerly chubby days a living hell. Now we're talking, aren't we? Holden Rey has always been the golden boy. Holden...golden...you following? You'd think the bitchy universe would do its job and throw some karma his way but to no avail. Not only has he got it all, but he knows it too. He also still has it out for Sierra and resumes being a jack-ass of epic proportions (and his ass ain't his only epic proportion) as soon as he realizes who the new girl next door is. It's the same old story with these two except this time, there's unwilling attraction and sexual tension underneath all the hate. Is it just lust or does the bitchy universe actually have a plan? So maybe this story is one for the books after all. *A hilarious, enemies-to-lovers, romantic standalone. Rated 18+ due to mature content. All rights reserved to TheFeveredBookaholic.*Complete
