Hartley Evans was abandoned by her mother, the only family she ever had, at the young age of eight. A boy only a year older than her, Dallas Parker, found her on the streets one night while scavenging for food. He brought her home, or to an abandoned library they call home, where his three other orphan best friends live, Scooter, Cooper, and Garrett. The group of five grow up together, doing whatever they can to survive and stay out of the system; even if that means it's illegal. 


Hartley and Dallas are best friends, given he saved her life. He knows everything about her, and she knows everything about him. Wherever one goes, the other follows. But then they all grown up, and the lines between friendship and love start to blur. The habit to lie, cheat, and steal is all they know. Trouble is the first thing they learned. How will they keep this from ruining their friendship? Or will they cross that line and let it burn?

Err on the Side of Violence: Terribly Acronymed Detective Club Series (Book 3) by MikeDePaoli

In this third novel of the Terribly Acronymed Detective Club, a year has passed since the events of "Rude Awakenings." Rachel and Al are now foster parents to a teenage brother and sister, whose alcoholic mother is back in rehab. As respectable a family as they may be, they haven't given up their relationship with Lauren, who is still married to Joe, whose narrative is central to this story. He's in his own relationship with Joanie Mara, a sergeant in the RCMP, an arrangement sanctioned by Lauren herself that isn't without its hiccups. Into this powder keg of emotions lands a crisis that draws the LSDC unwillingly into a world of drugs, trafficking and murder, when Logan, the foster son, finds himself in custody after a midnight deal goes horribly wrong and his mother is found dead under suspicious circumstances. Protecting him from people who don't have his best interests at heart proves to be harder than they imagined, especially after Joe, increasingly suspicious of Lauren and Al, makes a decision that sets off a series of destructive events. But when tragedy strikes and Logan falls into danger, can the five childhood friends rise above their conflicts and work to save his life?

More Than A Pretty Face |completed| by biiiiiitch_brook

Emma Reese's main worries used to be homework, feeding her cat and being able to find her Friends reruns in the DVR.

She thinks she has them bested as she runs away from the still unlocked library when once again life throws her another curveball. Rounding the corner on her way to her gran's house when the dark, mysterious, and somewhat handsome boy she thought she escaped cuts her off. Then, you know what they say; you can't ever just have one potato chip, Mr. Mysterious's friend magically appears not only stealing her backpack but also her freedom. They decide it'd be difficult to hide her body so what's the next best thing? kidnapping. Emma's whisked away from her simpleton life into one of what seems like life in a can. She's never felt more trapped yet somehow free. Carter Tyler is a delinquent. A high schooler who'd somehow managed to work hard enough to graduate a year earlier than Emma and all of his crime thirsty friends even though he was the same age. His first time in the school library after four years of high school he thought would be boring, indifferent if you will. Instead, he somehow ends up home with a seemingly crazy girl and missing his first kiss. In Carter's eyes Emma, who had convinced him her name was Valerie, was weird beyond belief, yet he was somewhat drawn to her. He sees Emma as a judgmental nun who assumes that just because he's been to Juvie a time or two, hasn't ever kissed a girl. That just because he could have any girl in the school that he wanted, had never been on a date. He thought Emma saw him for his looks only, and for some odd reason, he wanted her to see him as more. He wanted to show her he had a heart along with Calvin Klein looks. That he was more than a pretty face.
