Annie Warner has worked for Adams, Incorporated for seven months, almost exactly, but this wasn't the career she wanted. Her entire life, all she ever wanted was to write novels that would change people's lives. This cleaning job was not what she wanted. Adams, INC. is no normal business, that would be too easy... Adams, INC is the largest insane asylum in North America. Straight out of college, this was only supposed to be temporary, to bring in a little extra cash before her book took off, but all her hopes and dreams, along with her inspiration for writing, has been pushed aside when she is offered a position helping out the patients... The newest patient, Kellan English, was diagnosed with Schizophrenia at 17, just a month before graduation. Growing up just miles apart, Annie knows nothing of the ill man, but Kellan knows exactly who Annie Warner is. His single favorite memory of his childhood is a 15 year old Annie laughing as her then-boyfriend, a jeck who found huge fun in Kellan's stutter, tossing eggs at Kellan. The beautiful blonde has been the only thing to distinguish reality from the monsters were living in his head for the entire time he has been living in Adams, INC. Annie Warner is mysterious, yet in his mind, she's absolutely perfect. Nearly six years have passed since the graduation they would have shared, but only Annie has been given a chance to follow her dreams, looking to the future. Her new career helping the newest eight patients in the third unit of the hospital is showing that what Annie always wanted, is not what she needed. Annie's new position may be giving both Kellan and herself a second chance, one toward the future that was right for both of them. As Annie discovers that insanity is just a title, and you better watch where you are using it, Kellan is seeing that the future may have been so out of reach alone may be just around the corner with the help of some unlikely friends. Monsters are all in your head, anyways.. Right?

Best Life

After her life reaches new lows, Katie moves on to try and make a new start. Her grief follows her and her unbridled anger threatens to take an even tighter grip on her life. Until she meets Adam. Can he show her a better way to handle her grief? Can she learn to trust him? Will his mesmerising smile be enough? Will she discover what having the best life really means? ________________________________________ I have issues. Lots of them. But I'm mostly angry. I'm too much for most people. Just the way I fucking like it. It's much better for everyone to just stay the hell away from me. My safe happy angry life. So why does the universe insist that we keep crossing paths? And why does he insist on fucking smiling at me every single time? ________________________________________ I have to admit, when I first laid eyes on her at the bar, I could barely breath. She was stunningly beautiful without even trying and although she left without saying a word, the way she looked at me with those pretty eyes had me hooked and wanting to be able to see her again. I wondered about the who, what and why she felt like she needed to run like that. Her obvious defence tactic is that angry scowl she wears like armour, protecting herself from any harm and dissuading anyone from attempting to get too close. I plan on getting as close to her as fucking possible, if she'll just stop running.
