"Last Christmas I gave you my heart but the very next day, you gave it away..."
The one guy she thought she was in love with was no longer in love with her--at least if the lipstick on his neck was anything to go by. Still, she wasn't going to let a guy ruin her life, she was going to move on and he was going to regret it! Well that was the dream anyway. Right now all she wanted to do was fast-forward through the next few weeks on to Christmas break. There was only one problem, there was a school dance coming up in two weeks. A Masquerade Ball. And naturally her best friend was forcing her to go. The only thing she forgot was that at a Masquerade Ball, no one knows who you are, and you don't know for sure who you just danced with.

Call It Love
Elena had always secretly admired Lucas from afar. He was the boy everyone knew, the one with effortless charm and an easy smile. She never imagined her simple crush would lead to something more, but fate had its own plans. It all started when Elena approached Lucas one afternoon, asking him to help fill out a form for college. A trivial request, but one that brought them closer than she ever expected. In the course of their brief conversation, she asked for his number, just to exchange the details for the form. He gave it to her without hesitation. What began as innocent text messages soon turned into long conversations, and before she knew it, they were a couple. Elena, swept away by the intensity of her feelings for him, gave her heart completely to Lucas. But what she didn't know was that Lucas had a different agenda. For him, it started as a game-a way to enjoy the attention of someone who was deeply infatuated with him. He played his part well, offering fleeting moments of affection and charm. But as soon as he got what he wanted, he grew distant. Elena, still lost in the idea of their connection, couldn't understand why he pulled away.

Dear Scott
"Growing up around fairytales, Disney princesses and teen films, we are raised to believe that happy endings are always in store for us. But more often than not, reality sinks in, and the happy ending doesn't occur. Especially in high school. The main reason I liked this book so much was because it was so real. It was a love that was destined to crumble from the start, and yet, you kept pushing your luck. We've all been there. The late night texts from your crush waking you up to talk about nothing, the unexpected butterflies when you see him, the gross flaws he possess that you don't seem to notice, or the small things he does that turn you on. Most importantly, we learn that love truly is blind. We're unobservant to the world around us when our teenage love obsession is staring down at us with those big, brown, adorable eyes of theirs. And then when we wake up from this dream-like state that is a first love, we realize that he's not this perfect, older, mature man... but this boy."Complete
Days In The Sun
Once upon a time in the hidden heart of France, a handsome young prince lived in a beautiful castle. Although he had everything his heart desired, the prince was selfish, spoiled, and unkind. He had an entire army of servants there to attend to his every need, most of which were there since his childhood. The prince nearly hated his staff, even when they'd done nothing wrong - and were only trying to meet his needs. One night, during one of the Prince's courting events - a special type of ball, where dozens of young woman would dress up and dance with the prince, in an attempt to win over his heart and become queen to the Kingdom - An uninvited guest arrived. It was a poor, shivering, elderly woman seeking shelter from the bitter winter storm. Repulsed by her haggard appearance, the prince dismissed the woman. As a gift, the old woman offered the prince a single rose, but when he dismissed her again, the woman's outer appearance melted away. Only to reveal a beautiful enchantress. The prince begged for forgiveness, but it was too late - for she could see there was no love in his heart. The enchantress cursed the prince, transforming him into a hideous beast - and if he was unable to learn to love another, and earn their love in return by the time the last petal from the rose she offered had fallen, he would remain a beast forever. But the enchantress also placed the curse upon his innocent castle staff, who were transformed into antiques; suffering for the prince's mistake(s) in small, rusting, metallic bodies. Life was hard enough for the staff, but now - it was unbearable. ~ This story will go through the staff's struggles before, DURING, and after they were cursed. It will also fill plot holes and extend the ending of Beauty And The Beast. A majority of this story is a prequel, and will fall into a bit of a sequel as well, so I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it!Complete
