Saba has lived her entire life being content with doing what other people want. She had been content with allowing her parents decide her life for her. To Saba, this wasn't her life. Her life was somewhere lost in her head. Her life was somewhere that was perfect. Until she met Donovan. A chiseled and cold boy. At first glance there was something unnerving about him. Something that disrupted her ordinary and boring life. Donovan, falls in love with Saba's best friend, Aimee. Saba, however, has a blond, charming, athletic boy chasing after her. But soon after meeting this mysterious group of friends, Saba finds herself with no choice but to run for her life. Putting trust into people she had known for only a few months, she finds out things that shatter her world. She must face the truth; life is a reality, and the longer you stay in your head, the more prone you are to falling flat on your face.

On the Run: The Texas Files ✔
Book 1 of the On the Run Trilogy! Being a teenage girl is hard enough, but it's harder for Jackie since she's on the run from the US government. Jackie Robinson's just trying to keep herself (and her two older brothers and dad) alive. She's trying to find a place to settle down and attempt a normal life. It's been many failed attempts for the past eight years, escaping the government agents after her, barely, each time. Austin, Texas seems like a safe place: big city, lots of crowds, and they'd never been that far south. Just when Jackie's given up on finding a first love and true friendship, she stumbles across Parker Simmons, the boy who will either be her greatest ally or her entire undoing.
