Whilst never allowing herself to feel how bored she was by it all. Until she met Alec Amos.
Smart, chivalrous, quixotic and sexy as hell but hell bent on keeping his head buried in work, he knows exactly what he wants out of life and has every day planned ahead with no room for change or the quirky Mattie.
But when she's involved in a terrible accident and facing death's door his feeling for her are put under the microscope and he knows life without this quirky, skinny dipping, bowling shoe thieving, rooftop camping, sweet girl will never be the same again.

The Misfortunes Of Carrie
"Did you know Drama lowers I.Q? Intelligent people keep smaller social circles." I tell him, throwing another grape in the air and catching it in my mouth. "If that's true, then you and I should be geniuses." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Carrie Edwards is an enigma. Mysterious, beautiful, good taste in fashion and undeniably shy. She's the ultimate introvert, but she cannot be classified as a good girl. Then again, she's not exactly a rebel. Her favorite color is purple and in 8th grade, she threw up on the blind kid in the middle of a presentation on Dolphins. That's about all anybody knows about her. Hidden beneath a blanket of PTSD and social anxiety is the quirky, insensible, headstrong and sarcastic girl who lives life with an internal monologue of comebacks she doesn't actually say. Alec Kendrick, smoldering hot, very typical stereotyped bad boy. No, he's not rich with absent parents, nor is he poor and struggling to provide for his family. He has two brothers and a baby sister, who he gets a smite bit overprotective over. Alec likes his motorbikes, leather jackets and the occasional back talk to the teachers, plus picking a couple of fights and some drinking. Admittedly, so he's not a total angel either. These two very different people would probably have not even crossed paths if it wasn't for a mixed up folder, a weekend lost in the woods, a stolen copy of an embarrassing tape, crazy siblings, dancing best friends and of course, some sparks. Who knows what happens next?! ~-~ Mancheston Series, Book Two. CAN BE READ SEPARATELY Not edited, working on it. Some spelling and grammar errors. P.S I DO NOT own the cover picture. I just think it's pretty so props to whoever took it :) Cover Made by @SprinkleJellyDonutsComplete

Hard. And as DJ pulls her deeper into his world, she finds herself torn between the life she planned for herself and the one she can't seem to walk away from. But love in DJ's world isn't simple. It's filled with secrets, enemies, and a past that refuses to stay buried.

Moving in with the Griers ( Hayes Grier fanfic)
Gianna Smith is living the perfect life of a 13 year old. She is an only child, so her mother takes extra care of her. When her mother breaks the news that they are moving to North Carolina, Gianna can only think of the negatives. Although, there is one thing she will be looking forward to. DISCLAIMER: I popped back in a while ago to read this to see if it was still as cringe and poorly written as I remember it, and it is rip. Just a disclaimer, if you stumble across this story it just so happens I was 12 years old when I wrote it and in seventh grade. (it's been almost six years since i posted chapter one!) Read at your own risk for my excessive use of comma's and writing Gianna to be very over dramatic. That being said I am still super proud and thankful for this story as it is the most popular book I've ever written on Wattpad, including my other account that I have had. Thank you so much to everyone that has read / is reading this (even in 2019!) You're all amazing!Complete

NEED to BREATHE
It’s Groundhog Day, 1975, and Claire Harper survives a botched abortion. All Millie Rose can do at first is stare into the blinding lights of the NICU and hear doctors demanding answers about the burns on Claire’s body. Nurses panic, they cry and shout “she’s bradying down!” because, Lord help them, they’ve never seen anything like this. Neither has Millie. Although she died in childbirth in 1922, she still has a purpose. Her afterlife is filled with missions lasting anywhere from ten minutes to ten years, and she views her newest assignment as a second chance at motherhood. But she's got to act fast because Claire's lungs are weak, her heart rate keeps tanking, and her pH levels are low. The hospital has never had a 26-weeker pull through. Millie also tries to counsel Claire’s troubled parents, Mick and Manda, through the emotional fallout. They see marriage as the best “band-aid,” but Claire’s birth always haunts them, to the point Manda becomes a chain-smoking pill-popper who paints her house completely white. Mick becomes a reclusive binge-eater who sleeps in the barn. And Claire comes-of-age wondering about it all-- why she’s so sick, why she has scars on her skin, and what’s the secret her parents are keeping? Finally, there’s a good reason why Millie nudges Claire to find true love years later with the geeky guy down the street. True, Charlie Vance may build his own batteries and dissect dead animals, but his love for Claire drives his decision to attend medical school so he can take care of her the rest of her life. NEED TO BREATHE takes an unthinkable crisis and turns it into a gripping story filled with sensitivity, hope, beauty…even humor. From the opening chapter, readers will root for Claire’s chance at happiness, for the Harpers to heal, and for Millie’s reconciliation with her own lost motherhood.Complete
