They say opposites attract, but who really believes that? After all, it would seem more likely that like attracts like, right?
Derek Matthews is your stereotypical jock; handsome, popular, and wanted. He doesn't want a girlfriend - especially not an unpopular one; he has a reputation to uphold after all, and unpopular girls are boring losers, right? That's what he believes, anyway. When he meets Layla Marks, however, his view on life starts to change a little at a time. Though he tries, he can't seem to get her off of his mind. How long can he resist the unmistakable pull towards her?
Layla Marks does not like jocks; end of story. Her firm opinion is that they are stuck-up and obnoxious, and all of them are tools. After she goes to her first party, her opinion shifts ever so slightly, sparking a change in the way she sees others - specifically the popular crowd. After she makes a startling discovery, she tries as hard as she possibly can to ignore the electricity crackling between herself and one Derek Matthews.
Only partially cliche, this story will have every romantic 'aww-ing' at this jerk-turned-handsome-knight, and the budding romance between the unlikeliest of people as together they face the twists, turns and spirals life throws at them.

Worse for Love- Book #3 in the WF Series
Love. A word that never made sense to Ivy Blanchard. Yes, she helps all of her friends with every relationship because she wants to see them happy, but she never really believed in the exaggerated picture of what "love" is.

When one day, she gets drunk and calls Kai Hale; one of her cousin's friends, to come and get her, it escalates into a fake relationship that neither of them expected. To convince her friend that she doesn't need help finding love, she decides to create a fake relationship with Kai. Although, the lie only begins to lead into other things that neither one of them realized or were prepared for. Kai is the exact opposite of Ivy. Smiling is second nature to him, and love is definitely something he's always believed in, he just doesn't have enough time for it with his complicated schedule. When Ivy and him begin getting close though, he realizes there definitely is something happening, but convincing Ivy that it's okay to let someone in is harder than he thought it would be. Will he actually get over the wall she's built since she could remember?Complete

You Belong With Me (Complete)
Author's note: Before you read this, I just want to let you all know that I have grown up now and I am no longer the same stupid teenager who wrote this with some of the offensive jokes and comments that you may see in here. Clearly, I was still very naive and lacked awareness. I implore you to please read with caution and at your own risk. Some statements will be offensive and I truly apologize (I literally died from cringe when I read this again). I will not delete this seeing as there are still numerous people who choose to read and enjoy it (surprisingly) but I trust that you know better and what is right. ________________ Penelope Myers a.k.a. Pel is one of the teenagers you could describe as a nerd, shy, timid and weird.

But when Jay and Kate Jenkins (the meanest, most popular cheerleader in school) started dating, her heart was immediately shattered into a million pieces. She knew she couldn't beat Kate since she was a bully, perfect, popular and most of all possessive. She could be scary. Daniel Harper a.k.a. Danny is one of Pel's best friends. He was as nerdy as her and a bit shy too. He knew about her feelings for this Jay guy and he didn't like it at all. You see, he had a secret crush on Pel since they first met and no one knew it except him. But when he saw how sad and desperate Pel was after finding out Jay and Kate's relationship, he decided to help her get him anyway. He only wanted her happiness after all. But can Danny change Pel's mind along the way and be his instead? This story is a simple teen love romance that you would definitely want to read. It includes humor, heartbreak, best friends, crushes and most of all true love. It's cliche as it could get. But hey, life is one big cliche too right? (Trailer on the side)Complete
