Sarah Davis, known by the stage name Selena Dagger, was seemingly on top of the world. She'd won the television singing competition Impress USA, recorded an album, watched her songs climb the charts, won multiple awards and was in a relationship with another up and coming performer in Dave Morris a.k.a. Scruffy D. Unfortunately for her, her world was about to be rocked by the news that her boyfriend, the man she thought she could build a life with, had been carrying on a relationship with her Personal Assistant and good friend, Lucy behind her back. Needing to escape the sounds and lights of the big city to process everything, Sarah heads back home to Raleigh to spend time with her parents, especially her father as he battles alzheimers and slips away. She could never imagine that a chance encounter with a member of the North Carolina Courage while out for a run would turn into way more than just a friendship.

"How do you feel now, Morgan?" She says, more pointing something out than asking a question. She grabs hold of my wrists and tightens them. If I could see properly I could swear I see them turn purple. "I could beat you to the bone, right here, right now, till you die from your injuries. But, I won't. You will die. Maybe not today, maybe not in a month, but you will." Well, obviously I'm going to die. Humans don't live forever. "Wonder why?" "No, and I really don't care." She answers anyway. "Because we have the power, the people, and the weapons to do it. Face it, you're defenseless against us." I feel some blood flooding my mouth, so I, being a perfectly nice person, spit it in her face. That doesn't faze her at all. "I have the strength and intelligence, something you clearly don't have. Whatever y'all do to me, it won't break me. I will put up a hell of a fight before losing. I will fight, and I will win." I turn over and look at her fellow companions. "Even if I die doing it." "Is that a risk you're willing to take?" ____________________________________ 17 year old Morgan Peters is an average girl living life.

With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him. Can the words that used to cage her in really be the key to her freedom? --- Featured On: @NA: Take a seat and let it be | Mature Content and 18+ reading list @NA: You deserve the world | Mental Health reading list Ambys Top Picks New Adult 2023

[18+ only] "Eric, Did you sleep with her ?" I knew his answer nonetheless I waited for his reply. I knew it would break me and shatter me into pieces but I prayed to hear a negative answer when I very well knew what I was expecting was next to impossible. "YES" He replied nonchalantly. His hair looked messy from how many times she would have raked her fingers through it. His naked tattooed back had visible red marks of her nails which only broke my heart into million peices. ********************** He was the wildest dream, She was a dreamer. He was the bright sunshine, She was even darker than a shadow on new moon night. He was hot tornado, she was cool sea breeze. He was the dew on new morning leaves, She was a wilting flower. He was a rising morning, She was a dark night giving in to light. He was never ending tranquil sky, She was a dry desolate land. Little did she know 'Dawn' and 'Horizon' moulded them together to form a captivating illusional beauty. He had scars, she was his cure. He had a wounded heart that never healed. She was a disgrace, that's what she was told. She had her secrets cremented at the back of her soul. She had her past. She was a venom in a silver bowl. She drew all the colors from his life as soon as she stepped in. His easy going life became a living hell. A HEATED LOVETRIANGE complicating three lives in a long run. A HEARTBREAKING STORY of ERIC CULLEN ❤️ VIONA WAFFLES

It starts at a concert. For years, the haunting melodies and darkly poetic lyrics of Oliver Rose and The Thorns have provided Madison solace and inspired the explosions of color she's never dared to call art. Now, as she begins her post-college life in Los Angeles, she finally gets to see The Thorns live. An embarrassing mistake connects her with Daniel, and the spark between them is instant. But he's not just any swoon-worthy stranger-he's one of Oliver Rose's oldest friends. Before she can even process this twist of fate, Madison finds herself whisked away to the band's afterparty, living out a scene straight from her fantasies. And then, there he is: Oliver Rose, the man whose voice has scored her every heartache and triumph, in the flesh. To Madison's utter amazement, the charismatic frontman seems just as intrigued by her. But life rarely follows the lyrics of a love song. While the allure of her teenage celebrity crush is undeniable, Madison can't ignore the easy connection blooming with Daniel. As fantasy and reality blur, her choices threaten to unravel not only her dreams, but the tight-knit world of the band she idolizes. In life, as in art, the most beautiful creations often emerge from the messiest processes. What readers are saying: "The first story that left me utterly breathless 😁" "Interesting storyline right off the bat. Deep characters with great development. Most importantly...VERY VERY good writing and that's a must for me. I can't wait to see what happens. I'm so intrigued."

Ruby Koshi is your typical teenage girl who has obsessions with bands and singers and anything girly. She was born and raised in La Push before moving to Washington. Now, she was moving back. Of course she didn't know anyone but her best friend, Kim Conweller, to whom she's kept in contact with since the day she left. When she arrives, she's surrounded by a bunch of hot, muscular, attractive, shirtless guys. She befriends them all, until she meets Jacob Black. The moment their eyes met, she knew something about him was different. But what? Was it a sign of love at first sight? INFO: I wrote this story when I was in the 8th grade (12/13 years old) so beware of MANY overhyped scenes, grammatical errors, and weird moments. Read under caution.
