Forever and Always (FIRST DRAFT)
Lucy Collins has loved Parker Keller for as long as she can remember. Her best friend since childhood, her partner in crime, her almost-until he wasn't. One moment, he was hers in every way that mattered, and the next, he was gone. Cold. Distant. The boy who once knew all her secrets became a stranger overnight, leaving her with nothing but unanswered questions and a heart that refused to let go. Now, senior year is slipping through her fingers, and Parker is still the same reckless, untouchable heartbreaker he became after he cut her off. But old habits are hard to break, and despite everything, their lives keep colliding-through stolen glances across their bedroom windows, lingering touches that shouldn't mean anything, and memories neither of them can outrun. Then there's Jeremiah Hayes. Steady. Uncomplicated. A new presence in Lucy's life when she least expects it. He doesn't push, doesn't demand. He just listens. And for the first time in a long time, Lucy wonders if maybe-just maybe-there's another path forward. But love isn't simple. And moving on is never as easy as it sounds. Characters are 18+Complete

Chasing Charming ✔️

But she was best known for being nice. And usually, the boy did not want the 'nice' girl. But this summer she was going to prove to Mike, her crush since FOREVER, that nice was enough.

So now the nice girl had to start over at a new school in a new State. And when the (maybe not so bad) bad boy, Eli, gets involved, it might be hard to be known as 'the nice girl'.Complete

Are you mine?
We've all heard about 'the main character'. The type of person who lives through the most dramatic and improbable situations, and finds the kind of epic romance you only see in works of fiction. Which makes you think about how unrealistic love like that is. I used to think the same thing until I met him. Until I met 'the bad boy' that, as it turns out, wasn't that bad at all, just simply...a boy. A boy with an easy smile, a charming personality and looks so enticing that I couldn't keep my eyes off of him if I tried. A boy whose shoulders were starting to slump with the weight of his past and his family. A boy who believed that the only way to survive was by putting a lock on his heart and chaining it down to a place so deep inside of him that no one could ever reach it again. A boy who, for reasons I'll never comprehend, placed the key inside my palm and didn't shy away when I tried to free his hidden heart from its restraints. A boy who made me the main character of my own story. A story I never want to forget, and which begged to be put on paper. This is that story. ~~~ #1 love triangle 8/26/2019 #1 teen romance 11/4/2019 #1 mystory 7/27/2020 #1 teen drama 9/9/2020 #1 goodgirl 9/12/2020 Cover by @alexandramar1e Contains swearing and mature language.Complete
