"Why did we ever stop talking?"
Sometimes, College Application doesn't go your way. Maybe your dream school didn't accept you, or the program you were applying to was full of applicants. That is now the case for Damian Walker and his friend group, or actually, his former friend group that drifted apart in junior year. Now that they've graduated, they're left to figure out what do to with their future over the course of a gap year that they didn't even realize they all shared, subsequently bringing the once fractured group of teens back together to face the harsh climate of the world after high school.

The Best Kind of Betrayal
It's the first day of June's senior year and everything is already going wrong. Her first boyfriend and supposedly love of her life dumps her for someone else, her heart is broken and feels like it won't ever heal again and her best friend makes her join the most unnecessary club on earth to help her find new friends she most definitely does not need. Still. New chances are for new beginnings, right? Instead of falling into a deep dark pit of self pity (however tempting that may sound), all of this betrayal ends up leading her to the best friends she's ever had and the most exciting school year of her life. Oh - and a whole new fake boyfriend, to get some revenge on that idiot who dumped her. And who knows. Maybe even more.

Three best friends An amazing trip That's all it takes for life to be wonderful again. Except there's one question. ....... Three friends. Lily Young. Behind that smiling face you can see a disappointment. A sad past and a broken heart. Meeting the love of your life who just so happens to be the reason behind the trashed up heart in a different place altogether, not even in her wildest of wildest dreams. Will she be able to love again? Zara Ryder. That strong and perfect individual you see wasn't always that. Behind that hard core exterior lies a soft and loving being. That being has been left broken too many times. That soft and loving person has been through many scars, scars hidden from that exterior. Will she able to love again? Christian Rodgers. Rich and handsome. Half the world at his feet. Gets what he wants at the click of his two fingers. Perfect, don't you think? Let me tell you, it's not. Stepping into the roller coaster, his love lets him down at the first juncture. Will he able to love again? And that one question. ............. My first ever book on Wattpad!!

All I ever wanted
"I know we broke up, but.., " he whispers in my ear, trailing his finger lightly along my arm. He places a soft kiss on my collarbone, making a shiver course through me. He tilts his head so he's staring straight into my eyes. His pupils dilate as he gazes at my face, stroking my cheeks slightly with his thumb. "I just can't seem to give you up." And with that, he crashes his lips onto mine. ~~~ After her boyfriend cheats on her with her best friend and disappears from town without an explanation, Dove Kelch loses all hope in love and fairytales.
