Anoush Manikas is a lot of things at once - a proud Greek-Armenian, a first-generation American, a rising high school senior, a dancer, a straight-A student, and a Juilliard hopeful. She also happens to be the second child and only daughter of legendary heavy metal guitarist Giannis Manikas. She doesn't let that get to her head, though. She's just Anoush, and she likes it that way.
Anoush is in a weird phase of her life. She comes from a family of artists, writers, musicians, and athletes, and she doesn't want to be the only one without a claim to fame. But she wants to get it herself, not because of who her father is. Being 17 is hard enough without the existential crisis of being a celebrity's kid. How will she ever learn to stand out on her own two feet?

Like what kind of person wants to work at an alternative high school? She only applied partly because she does care about the musical arts being taught in schools seeing as how it can help students for the most part on being able to work better and such, but also because she needs a job until she's able to find music label that will take on her and her band We Are The In Crowd.

A boy who doesn't know of her or the heart flutters she feels for him. To him, she is just another ordinary girl who, like the rest of his fans, adores him dearly. Her room is crowded with his smiles and his movies are no exception. He is the perfect love interest behind a screen. That is until she comes face-to-face with her movie star Jackson Connor at his upcoming premiere. He has it all. The chocolate brown hair, the piercing green eyes, and the smirks that earn him the title of America's heartthrob. But, under his seemingly perfect visage of wealth and talent is insecurity and darkness just waiting to break free. When his eyes lay on hers, she is pulled into a movie that lives within his gaze. Her amazement, now seeming sweet, soon turns sour and leaves Aaliyah clawing her way out of it. Aaliyah should hate Jackson, and she does... but with more twists to uncover and their chemistry becoming harder to ignore, the two drastically different souls claim each other as their own. She hates attention. He craves it. He will do anything to shield her from the flashes and headlines even if it means leaving her in the dark and untangling her seemingly strong friendships. Will Aaliyah be able to handle his harsh past and merciless expectations or will she find herself straying away from the truth and her own personal movie star? • Book cover | Abbie_1412Complete

Seems like a wonderful life, right? Most good things come with at least one catch, though: He's blind. Following a move from Washington to New York, Zach struggles to fit in with everyone else. Little did he know that high school across the country would be extremely different than back home. He would endure new town, new home, new friends, but also new hardships. Will Zach find a way to fit in with his new surroundings? Then, there's Kelsey Davis, one of the popular girls of the school. She's beautiful, charming, and, of course, she can be a bit questionable. Luckily, there's almost always a side to people that nobody sees. Hanging out with the wrong crowd has gotten to Kelsey's nerves, but she doesn't want to leave her friends. Having such a reputation with the entire school has extremely high standards, and she can't meet them anymore. Will everything change when she notices a unique boy among the crowds who might need a friend? *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Disclaimer: This is the very first book that I ever wrote. It was created in the Fall of 2018 by a 15-year-old girl who had no idea how to construct and develop a story.
