FALLEN FOR A BAD BOY {BAD MEETS BADDEST} by OMALOVESRED

She witnessed horror... and became one. After surviving a harrowing near-rape and watching her best friend brutally assaulted and murdered before her eyes, Aurora vanished-emotionally. What rose from the ashes was someone unrecognizable: Cold. Fearless. Savage. Untouchable. She trusts no one. Loves no one. And as far as she's concerned, no man alive could ever break through her fortress of ice. Love? Dead. Her rules? Simple. No emotions. No attachments. No second chances. But her new college? A battlefield. And him? Leonard Grande - the kind of trouble she didn't prepare for. Wounded. Rebellious. Addictive. Dangerous. A walking paradox with a face carved by gods and a soul damaged by demons. A notorious playboy who takes pleasure in breaking girls, shredding hearts like paper-because he believes every girl is a liar in disguise. Until Aurora. She doesn't look at him like he matters. She doesn't fall. She doesn't even flinch. And that pisses him off. Now it's war. A toxic game of destruction and seduction. She wants to erase him. He wants to ruin her. But when secrets from the past start surfacing, both realize they've been walking in the dark... and maybe-just maybe-they were destined to collide. How deep do their scars go? And who's really pulling the strings in this web of pain and passion. Dive into a dark college romance where love is a weapon, trust is deadly, and only the strongest survive. When bad meets baddest... there are no rules. Trigger Warning: This story contains themes of sexual violence, emotional trauma, murder, psychological manipulation, and abusive behavior.

Eyes Wide Open by sup3r_n0va_

"I thought about running away, setting off to see the world before I couldn't see anything at all. I had never been out of the country. I wanted to go to the top of the Eiffel Tower, see the castles in Prague, ride a gondola in Venice. I wanted to do something crazy and fall in love and have my heart broken and then do it all over again. But then the bell rang, and I just got up and walked to my next class." ~*~ Blake Summers was always the poster child for good girl perfection: she had straight As, never got into trouble, and followed rules to a fault. But before the start of her senior year of high school, Blake receives life-changing news: she's going blind. Her diagnosis forces Blake to confront the fact that she's tired of playing it safe. She wants to truly see the world, take risks, and be anything but predictable before her vision fades completely. Enter Dash Wolfe, Blake's classmate: his reputation as a rebellious troublemaker precedes him everywhere he goes. As Dash becomes interested in Blake, she finds herself intoxicated by his fearlessness. Will Blake succumb to Dash's temptation, ruining her good girl reputation? Will she find the adventure she's been looking for before her sight is gone? Or will their reckless choices lead to disaster?
