Andrew Ferrera thought he could balance the weight of two worlds: the privileged, suffocating life he shares with his grandmother and half-sister, and the chaotic, unpolished friendships he's built on the south side of town. But navigating high school relationships and family expectations proves harder than he imagined.

Andrew's world spirals when a rumor threatens to ruin his ex-girlfriend Alex's reputation. Torn between his lingering feelings for her and his own self-preservation, Andrew finds himself at odds with Ginny Montreal, a sharp-tongued, complex girl whose actions often speak louder than her words. Meanwhile, his loyalty to his friends, including the unpredictable Steve and heartbroken Gigo, pulls him deeper into conflicts that challenge his sense of identity.

As secrets unravel and tensions mount, Andrew must confront the messy truths about love, loyalty, and the pain of growing up. He begins to question not just the relationships around him but also the choices that define who he is and who he wants to become.

The Space Between is a raw and emotional coming-of-age story that explores the fragile bonds between family, friends, and self-proving that sometimes the hardest journey is the one to understand yourself.

Despite him being on the diving team with his godbrother Jorge Fernandez and their friends and families being well-acquainted with each other, Skylar wants nothing to do with Jorge and plans to keep his priorities in line with the goals and expectations set by his grandparents: finish high school, get a scholarship, and keep the family name clear from scandal. And even though he has been dreaming forbidden fantasies, Skylar knows that he couldn't afford any distractions whatsoever. But Jorge has other plans in mind, as do his and Skylar's families as well as their social circles and even the school's matchmaking principal and vice-principal. Everyone knows that Skylar's been crushing on Jorge but has let his fears and grandparents' high expectations keep him from acting on it. So what happens when an end-of-summer house party leads to a drunken one-night stand? And what happens when a year-long senior project, family dinners, and other arranged events force Skylar to be by Jorge's side? Skylar knows that Jorge wants him badly. Jorge's not the type to give up, even if his godbrother wants him to forget him. With the passions and romantic desires building between them, will Skylar's bias and jaded personality keep him and Jorge apart for good? Or can Jorge finally shatter Skylar's castle walls and teach him what it means to be on the edge of seventeen?

What happens when the monster in the house is your new stepsister? Liv Brooklyn's life fractures the moment her mother says yes to a man she barely knows. Nineteen years of familiarity are erased for a stranger, a new city, and a house that never feels safe. The man is almost a stranger. His children are worse. Liv learns quickly that this isn't a fresh start-it's a quiet trap. Torrey Newton is the worst of it. Twenty years old. Cold-blooded. A sadist behind perfect composure. Torrey doesn't raise her voice, doesn't need to. She breaks people slowly, deliberately. She has everything-money, influence, fear-everything except the one thing that still owns her thoughts: the girl who walked away and left her hollow. Maddy Longing. Her name alone is poison. Beautiful in a way that ruins lives. The kind of woman people warn you about after it's too late. To some, she's the cruelest human alive. To others, the most devastating lover they've ever touched. She leaves marks no one can see and scars no one admits to. And somehow, she never really leaves. When Liv meets her, she doesn't recognize the danger-only the pull. Torrey does. Now Liv is living in Torrey's house, breathing her air, and reaching for what was never meant to be hers. Desire turns into rivalry. Rivalry turns into obsession. And Maddy-always at the center-keeps dragging them back into the same dark orbit. Bound by a family they didn't choose and a woman who ruins them both, Liv and Torrey spiral-hurting each other, wanting the same thing, and finding that no matter how far they run, they always circle back. Some loves don't save you. They destroy you slowly-and enjoy it.
