Dear ‘Whoever-You-Are-One-Thing-I-Know-That-You-Are-Awesome’,
My name is Alexandra McKenzie Éclair, a bit weird I know. But now, people recognized me as the famous Alexa Éclair, the Hollywood Golden Girl. Well, I want to tell you a story. Actually, it was about me. It was about how I became the great Alexa Éclair and how much that I have to lose or gain to be in this place.
Just yesterday, I was still your typical country girl. But one day because of a thing that I obviously don’t like to talk about, I was moved to live in one of mom’s relative. But one thing that I have no clue about is that I was moved from my lovely hometown to a complete different zone that they called Hollywood.
And then, the journey is begun. At first I didn’t expect it will be that way. All the struggles, kiss, hug, smile, backstabbing, lies, scandal, acting, fame, fashion, tricks, tactics, bitches, drama, fakeness, pretentious, and tear not only the sad one but also the happy one.
The most important thing (but I can’t decide whether this one is the best of the worst thing that ever happened to me) is Dylan Ryder. And FYI, until now, I can’t figure out his motive to hit on me. Is it for joke or dare? Is it just because of fame? Is it for revenge? Or is it for make his ‘Ex - Perfect Blondie Girlfriend’ jealous? Is it because Alexa Éclair the Hollywood Golden Girl? Or is it because the plain old Alex?
If someone actually gave me a choice back then, and I wasn’t so naïve like your typical country girl with big dreams, I wouldn’t choose to be like this. Why? I had my reasons.
They said that I was ungrateful, but I let you decide if my actions wrong or not.
XOXO,
Alex Éclair.
WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION
Can she be herself in a one-size-fits-all world?
Lori Palmer is the new girl at Bay Water High, where students prize glossy hair, beach bodies, and school spirit above all else. She misses her old school―where her talent as an artist carried more weight than she does―and longs for her old family life, before her parents got divorced and her mom reinvented herself.
So Lori decides that the only way to survive the rest of the year is to blend into the background, but her plans go awry when she discovers that the most popular (and hottest) guy at Bay Water High, Jake, is a volunteer at her brother's school. When her brother befriends Jake's sister, Lori is suddenly thrust into his unfamiliar and exhilarating world of water polo, parties, and stargazing.
But with her relationship with her mother deteriorating, old anxieties resurface and Lori finds a new artistic release that unknowingly ignites a powerful movement. When the authorities start asking questions, Lori realizes that finding her voice might have gotten her into a world of trouble...but sometimes standing up for what you believe in is as important as standing up for yourself.
