No matter what anyone says, 15 is such a difficult age.
It's the awkward transition between your first GCSE, and the age when you can move out.
Joanna Ophelia Simmonds knows that better than anyone.
Her English professor Mother, with the completely normal name of Hannah Simmonds, thought it would be funny to name all of her kids after Shakespeare characters, so Jo has seen her fair share of teasing. And so has her 2 brothers: Samuel Horatio Simmonds and Oscar Mercutio Simmonds.
Jo is majorly struggling through year 10. Her best friend Jackie is finding a complete breeze, making her of no help whatsoever.
The town she lives in is also a complete dump with nothing to do.
Much like the people.
Nothing to do.
Her only source of entertainment is lad spotting in the local parks.
Nobody ever tells you just how hard being 15 is.
Perhaps because nobody makes it to 16 without going insane first.

His isolation and other emotions are expressed through his art. The two seventeen year olds are connected in their different forms of art in a teenage story filled with drama, sarcasm and loads of creativity.

He said quietly, looking up at me with his soft, heartwarming eyes. "How?"I couldn't draw for shit. "Because you are a dancer. Dancing is an art. And you are an amazing dancer."

Falling For An Inmate
Prison Diaries: Book 1 (complete) A law-abiding student gets entangled with a broody inmate when she discovers there has been a miscarriage of justice. She goes in to help, but ends up breaking the first rule of interning at a prison; she falls for the inmate. ***** Carter Reynolds' teenage years ended the second the gavel hit the sound block. Or maybe they ended when the police found him standing over a dead body, drenched in blood. It might even have been before that. When he connected his fist with a face that left a broken jaw in its wake. Either way, it was over. He was sentenced to 25 years in prison. He accepted his fate, only promising himself to never care for anyone so intensely again. Almost four years into his sentence, Arya Crawford walks through the wrought iron prison gates. A self-proclaimed miniature philanthropist with a heart of gold, a law-abiding student with an urge to always have fun, a girl with a silent cause. She had taken up an internship at the New York State Penitentiary. And in time, Carter and Arya both realize something. She had broken the first rule instructed by the warden. She had fallen for an inmate. Which meant she couldn't stay. He had broken the promise he made to himself. He had started to care for her. Which meant he couldn't let her leave. But it's a little difficult to make that happen when you're stuck in a closet sized cell. And waiting twenty-one years is out of the question. ***** Highest Rankings: #6 in Romance, #2 in Passion, #4 in Badboy, #1 in Witty (for those who don't think an inmate/prison trope is their cup of tea, don't be put off because the story is first and foremost 'romance') Disclaimer** Reader discretion advised. - Mature content Story contains explicit language, sexual content, and physical and sexual violence.Complete
