COMPLETED. Sienna Grace is going into her third year of university with only her boyfriend by her side. She's reeling from the loss of her best friend, Ethan, in a car accident that summer, and if that wasn't bad enough, she has to deal with the guilt that comes from knowing that Ethan got drunk at that bar because he was nursing the heart that she broke. Sienna's social support network is waning thin: Her boyfriend Josh, whom Ethan never really liked, is more distant than usual. At work, there's Liam, who's way too friendly and Maggie, who's not friendly at all. It appears that it's going to be a lonely year for Sienna until her Monday morning English lecture. There she meets Hayden Strong and she can't help but be envious of his carefree attitude and charm, to which she's not immune. Despite his blatant flirting, Hayden insists that they only be friends, and that's not just because Josh is still in the picture. As her relationship falls apart, Sienna realizes that she wants Hayden. She's just not sure that she needs him. As Sienna and Hayden spend more time together, they'll be forced to wonder if a broken heart can still beat.

64 Pack of Juniper by novellacinderella
8 parts Ongoing Mature
After three weeks of her high school sweetheart strangely acting like the biggest asshole towards her, Juniper's boyfriend breaks up with her and seemingly that's the end of that. Embarrassed, heart broken, and unsure what to do, Juniper says nothing to her friends about the breakup, not three days later when Abel makes it official by dropping off everything she ever gave him, and not two days after that when they're forced into each other's proximity for their friend group's weekly game night. Strangely enough, Juniper finds out that Abel has ALSO not said anything to his friends about the breakup. The biggest reason? Abel's best friend just so happens to also be Juniper's big brother. What would Hayden do once he found out about their breakup? Would he and Abel still be friends? Would Juniper WANT them to still be friends? They'd been friends twice as long as Juniper and Abel had dated. Hayden would drop Abel in a heartbeat for his sister, but he would be just as heartbroken as her. She didn't want that. But she didn't want to be stuck seeing Abel all the time after what he'd said to her either. Juniper agreed to not tell Hayden about their breakup until they were both ready. But that meant, they'd have to still act like a couple- like the couple they were before- in order for Hayden not to find out. As the 'pretending' goes on, and neither one of them seems closer to being 'ready', both Juniper and Abel start to wonder if Hayden is the only reason the other person won't let go.

Meant To Be

26 parts Complete

Sometimes, some things are just meant to be. ******** The last thing Cassie Martin needs on the first day of her second year of university is some hot asshole cutting ahead of her in line at Starbucks. Or to later run into him again - wearing only a towel this time. An address mix-up is the cause of their meeting, made only crazier by the fact that he's Holland Bellamy, a member of the world-famous boyband FOUR. Cassie counts their one-in-a-million meeting as just that - one in a million. But after Holland apologizes by inviting her to a concert - and then they meet again the next day - she can't help but feel like there could be something more between them. Cassie quickly embarks on a flirtatious online thing with Holland, throwing all caution to the wind. But she's busy with school and he's on tour, and she's not sure how serious he is about everything. After all, they've only met in real life once - twice if you count Starbucks. Cassie is falling hard - despite all logic telling her that there is no way it can work between them. With the fame and press and fans making keeping their relationship secret a necessity, Cassie and Holland have to make a choice - what are they willing to risk, and give up, to be together?
