Riley Thornton seems to have it all. As the singer for the rock band Crazy 88's he has fast women, fast cars, and fast clubs all at his finger tips. However a time comes when he doesn't want it anymore. He still wants to perform but the casual hookups, parties, and drugs get to be too much. Instead he wants a loving wife, a couple of kids to demand his attention and love along with just a chance to have some peace.
One day after clubbing too hard he wakes up and sees that he's married to Giselle Williams. Giselle is a quiet and shy librarian who prefers a simple quiet life opposed to Riley's mad whirlwind lifestyle. She thinks it won't work but Riley wants it to work. Who will win in the end?

Between Us (all of us #1)
I wanted her the first moment I saw her. I was only eight, but my heart's been set on her ever since. I don't know what to call my fixation on her, I don't know if it's just lust. I don't know if it's pure infatuation, or even love. But whatever it is, it's strong. It's unconditional...it's unrefined...but it's unrequited... It's unlawful. And still, no one could convince me that she isn't the one. She is the one. She's the only one. I wanted Aubree. I had to have her, but I had to wait. There's always been a wedge between us. A thick line that's never meant to be crossed. But sometime after my eighteenth birthday I took the first step over it. Nothing between us now-except for the guilt over seducing my best friend's mom. *This book contains some taboo elements, sex, and strong language and is intended for mature readers*Complete

And she's not the only one with problems. At the same time, Emily is struggling to cope on her own at home, when everyone is out, getting on with their lives. Restricted to the confinement of their house, she's slowly going slightly crazy. But she doesn't exactly have anyone to talk to - Hunter left the studio ages ago, and Stephanie and Giselle haven't been around in months. Being the people they are, both Riley and Emily try and keep their struggles to themselves - it's just easier that way. But surely everything can't stay hidden forever... Surely there's only so much someone can take before things start getting serious... Fanfiction based on the Canadian show The Next Step. Therefore I don't own these characters! (Set around the start of season 3) Due to the mention of abuse, suicide and self-harm (amongst other issues), this book is rated Mature.Complete

The Rockstar Next Door
FINISHED Sunshine Bailey stopped speaking the day her father died. Silence kept her safe-until someone used it to control her. Now she's finally free, starting over in Chicago with her best friend, determined to find her way back to music... and herself. But freedom doesn't last. Not when her past won't let her go. Not when her new neighbor is a cocky, irresistible rockstar who sees straight through her silence. And not when the boy she escaped is still watching-closer than she thinks. Because Sunshine may be quiet... But her story is anything but. Also, sorry if there is any bad grammar or mixed up words. Editing in process. I wrote this when I was 12 so I'm currently fixing it up a bit. But surprisingly, it's not TOO terrible in my opinion.
