The Girl Next Door
Iris Donnelly, at the golden age of seventeen, hasn't opened her heart up to anybody. Her philosophy is to get through her last year of high school with straight-A's and her head down. She believes that her heart belongs in her ribcage, not in anybody else's hands. Not only is the pressure of school on her though, but she has severe anxiety after her mother's death. So what happens when she bumps into Pierce Wright, also known as the school's "bad boy"? What happens when she's supposed to be his tutor? What happens when they start to tear down their masks and really get to know all parts of each other - both the good and the bad? And when happens when they become next door neighbors? ✾ DISCLAIMER: While the story has been 100% written by me, this was made to be cliché (strangely enough, it was my attempt to write a good cliché). The pictures weren't taken by me for the face claims! WARNING: This story also contains some heavy topics like anxiety, death, and self-harm. Cursing has been censored with astericks but it does have mature content (nothing sexual though).Complete
The Weight of Whispers
Rumours haunt Iris like shadows - twisting who she is into something cruel and unrecognisable. She doesn't know where they started. But they're spreading fast. And things are only getting worse. With only two people by her side - Isaac, steady and kind, and Jules, always sweet - Iris clings to the little trust she has left. Then she's paired with River - the popular guy with a reputation for being cold and careless. She expects nothing good. Instead, something shifts. But trust is fragile. And when betrayal cuts deeper than words, Iris is left questioning everything-and everyone. Life can fall apart in an instant. Sometimes, the person you lean on... is the one you never saw coming. Trigger Warning: This book contains themes of bullying, emotional abuse, mental health struggles, trauma recovery, and the death of a loved one. Reader discretion is advised. This is my first piece of work, so please don't hate it too much and feel free to leave any comments.Complete

The Dancing Darling and Her Bad Boy (Completed)
Quick side note: This book was originally named 'The Bad Boy, The Secret, and Me' and was renamed to its current title as of 27/04/2018 for existing/re-readers. It is not a werewolf/alpha story but simply my first book on here which started quite cliche from a young writer's perspective (so please do excuse my mistakes during your time reading). With that said, enjoy! --------------------------------------------------- "Who are you, Ally Parks?" I ask her. "No-one that you would care about," She replies.

He smirks, "You've finally cracked." I furrow my eyebrows, "You were baiting me? Jerk, just turn off your music!" "Or what?" He asks teasingly. "Or..or I'll tell the front office!" He shrugs, "Go ahead, you're the only one complaining." I glare at him, "Ooh you are so!" He looks at me amusingly, "So what?" "So!" He brings his face closer to mine, "Say what you want to say."
