Amara Campbell Brown never had an easy life from the start. She wasn't considered someone to love or to be be loved. She never disagreed cause it was the truth. She's hot headed, stubborn and hates everyone.
Oliver Carter has always had it easy. Amazing parents, lack of financial struggle and good friends. He's someone to fall in love easily and is easy for love. He's compassionate, kind and has a caring nature.
He can get any girl he want, and he wants her. For the first time ever in his life, he has to work for something harder than his grades. For the first time she feels emotions she lacked all her life when around him.
He craves her love, she denies his.
He wants her attention, she wants to get away from his.
It's a game for love for him, it's the pleasure of lust for her.
It's a tragedy, how we think people are our soulmates. Each love story - sad or happy ending- is a tragic love story. It's up to us to find the happiness or not in the end of them.
And this is the tragedy of them.

Summer Fee; Sick in Love
"You never answered the question. What's one thing you want more than anything?" He asks, pressing the elevator button. "I want..." my mind is thrown into a whirlwind of thoughts. I want so much; more than he knows. I run my hands through my hair, "I don't really know what I want. It's not like it matters." He moves and stands in front of me. I look at him as he continues to watch me, "What do you want?" "You," I mutter. Always you. ==================== Allyson Scott has had her fair share of struggles. Just like the cliche line, she wasn't a normal girl. She didn't even know what a first grade classroom looked like. She only knew what was inside the walls of the hospital. Since the day she was diagnosed, she was known as "The Girl with Cancer." Dylan Smith was a regular teenage guy. He drove a Jeep, played on the baseball team, and hung out with the guys every other weekend. He knew everybody that went to his school. So the minute he met Ally, he knew she was different. But didn't know why. Their story is one for the books. The many different things that could and do happen make the story oh so incredible.

If You Love Me
In the first second that I laid my eyes on you, everything that I have ever wanted out of life flashed right before my eyes. I could envision us going on picnics, stuffing our faces until we felt sick, holding hands until there was nothing but sweat between us, and introducing you to my parents in hopes that they would love you just an ounce of the way that I loved you. I could see us fighting over the remote only to end up not paying attention to the television program at all. And most of all, I could see you meaning something special to me- being that one consistent person in my life. But that second soon ended and I did not even know your name. Avery Davenport is an artist chaos. On the outside, a girl with her head in books, paint on her fingertips, and one foot in front of the other. On the inside, a girl with hate in her heart, regret in her veins, and self-loathing in her every system. Following a tragic turn of events, she begins to spiral. A tragic and fatal ending that she didn't have the answers to completely causes her to unravel. Pain slowly begins to be masked in the beds of the boys she meets, in her dark and quiet room, and subsequently on the ledge of her dorm room balcony. She didn't believe in hope or happy endings, never having conjured up one for herself or others, not until she met him. Dean Carter is all things remarkable. On the outside, a boy with ironed clothes, hair always perfected, and an ever dashing smile that could melt one's every sorrow. On the inside, a boy with cognizance in his brain, hope in his veins, and loneliness in his heart. Everything in his life has happened according to plan. His every happiness stems from medical books, sunsets, and seeing his loved ones smile. He has never been in love, never so much as thought about a girl beyond what left her lips, not until he met her. Please read the foreword for trigger warnings and disclaimers.

Cal Jackson's new life as a rockstar fails to account for one thing: the existence of the girl he loves. ***** "What are you thinking about?" she asks. "A song," I say. "A new song." I stare at the ocean as I sing the song that I wrote, something that comes from the darkest place of my heart. "Do you even know how gifted you are?" she whispers. "You're destined to be someone big, Cal." "Really?" "Yeah." ***** She's perfect in every way. Beautiful. Smart. Her bright future is right there in front of her eyes. While here I am. Ruined.

The moment she whispers my name, "Cal," I lose all sanity. She becomes my melody, my lyrics, the song that keeps echoing in my ears. People call her Mia. I call her my Amy, her name crafted above my beating heart, tattoed on my skin. Amelia Davis is my girl. Mine. And only mine. ***** THE JACKSONS BOOK #1 © 2021 Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved.

Whisper To Me
I don't know how it happened, I don't know where it began and I don't know when it ends. We met on an app, we were never meant to be such close friends, but we were, maybe even more. We grew close, yet we were strangers at the same time. You were my shoulder to cry on even though you were rarely there physically. I told you my secrets, but I was so caught up in the thought of finally having someone there for me that I never realized the fact that you never told me yours. When we first met we were inseparable. We weren't meant to be more than just acquaintances, but somehow, we grew closer and I got attached. I tried to stay away, I tried to keep my distance, but I was clouded by the fact that I wanted- needed a friend. The walls I spent so long building up, you knocked them down so easily, that it looked almost effortless. I fooled myself into thinking that you would always be there, that you were different from everyone else, that you wouldn't leave like them, that you wouldn't drop me like I was nothing. Foolish girl. We grew closer, I got attached and somewhere along the way, I fell in love. You never loved me the way you loved her, did you? Was I just a broken toy you wished to fix? Did you pity me, the lonely girl that barely survived the world? Why did you leave? I wake up one morning and you're gone. Gone from my life, from my mind, from my memory. Please tell me why. Why was this our falling out? Please tell me. What was it, the words you continue to whisper to me before I close my eyes?Complete
