"You asked me if I'd seen him Then you asked about the smell Sorry, but I'll see you again At the high school reunion in hell" A girl who is desperate for the whole world to love her. A band that hates each other. Secrets best kept hidden and a tangled web of lies. Sometimes a fantasy is better than reality. Cleo Radford knew what she was getting into when it happened, she knew she would have to lie and cheat her way to back to the freedom she had robbed herself of. The voices in her head weren't all to blame, they had to come from somewhere inside of her. If she had known what a stupid music assignment and a few mistakes would get her into back then, she might've told the truth. Now her only choice is to run, and hope that she doesn't trip over her web of deceit. The only problem is, it's difficult to hide when there's a trail of dead bodies behind you and blood on your hands.Terminé
Killer Love
After her sister's brutal murder, Maribeth moves into the same apartment building-determined to find the killer hiding behind one of its doors. Just weeks after she settles in, another woman is killed at the end of her hallway. As Maribeth digs deeper, she uncovers the building's dark history. And the more she investigates, the more the evidence points to someone disturbingly close: her quiet, charming neighbor. He's always been kind to her. Attentive. Protective. Maybe a little too much. Now he says he's in love with her. But can she trust a man who might have murdered her sister? To turn him in could make her his next victim- but to fall for him could mean losing everything.![All She Never Wrote [EDITING]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/377021214-256-k274045.jpg)
All She Never Wrote [EDITING]
When the light of truth forces acts of deception to disperse from darkness, lovers tug at war with a rope weaved of broken hearts. Betrayal lingers in the ashes of a diminished dynasty, dancing over skeletons of paramours to the song of consequences and accountability. It was only to hope that the wind of redemption was powerful enough to move the remnants of deceit's aftermath, and that the sea of forgiveness was ferocious enough to drown its memories. Valerie Hanson is a forty-two year old CEO of one of the largest and fastest growing conglomerates in the world. The woman has a lot of competitors and enemies, including herself. On the outside looking in, Valerie is the embodiment of perfection. While she knows that isn't true, there's never any harm in wearing a false reality like armor. Supposedly she's been wearing it for far too long, through too many storms and battles. Rusted, bent, and stiffened, it has to come off. Jennifer Lavich believed she was able to see through Valerie's farces. She'd have been better off inspecting her own delusions, however. The truth was staring back at her all along, unfortunately she chose to be blind to it. Now that the lights have come on, and everything she wished to keep in the dark stands shimmering before her, she's forced to face her fiercest enemy yet--herself.Terminé
