Coraline Dawson hasn't been the same since she witnessed her boyfriend's death 3 years ago- and was trapped in the same room as him for hours until the police found them.
It's a miracle she survived the incident, considering she was the only one with him, and she saw the killer. It's almost like they knew she wouldn't be able to dredge up the memories of her past and tell them everything about that night.
Everyone tells Cora to 'try and accept it' or that 'it's okay to talk about it'. She's the only one who knows what really went down. All Cora wants is to continue her life before everything, but it's hard to forget. And when things reminding her of him start coming up far too often, like his jacket appearing in her closet and a mysterious message from his old Pinterest account they made together, she feels like she's reliving everything over again. She can't focus on anything anymore, even though she should be worried about who's doing these things. No one understands how hard it was. As the reminders of him turn into triggers of her best and worst memories, she realizes one thing.
They never meant only to kill him. It was all to destroy her.

She eventually decided not to ponder about it anymore and get used to the situation. But then, a couple of days before her seventeenth birthday, she starts to discover a very dark past that has way more to do with herself than she could have ever imagined."

Before She Even Knows
''There is only one thing crossing my mind right now. If he hates me so much, then why the hell is he kissing me back?'' ----------------------- Emma White has always been kind of a loner. Her mother died giving birth to her and her father never really cared, always working in his successful company. That's why she decides to go to a college away from home, something she's been dreaming of since she can remember. However, what happens when at her very first day on campus, she crosses path with Noah Allen? He is rich, popular, cold, rude and a player just to start with. No surprise she calls him Mr. Grumpy. What is driving her insane though is that he's only too cold when it comes to her. After some not so pleasant moments and lots of glares, she tells herself that the best is to stay away from him, but it won't be that easy. After a disastrous kiss and hidden jealousy, she finds herself deeply involved into what is this frustrating boy. Add to that the fact that he is her roommates' childhood best friend and you can see drama from miles away. Noah claims to hate her ever since they met, and he doesn't mean her first day of college. He remembers her just fine from a couple of years ago and all the feelings are back. He knows she doesn't remember him and he'll use this as his leverage to do what he has to do. It's what he promised his father and himself, even if it means he has to pretend to care for her. All he cares is his family business. At least it's what he tells himself, until the feelings start getting too mixed and he ends up thinking of her more than he should. Maybe it's not all about business after all. He knows their history started before she even knows, what he didn't expect was for her to be so different from what he has always believed.Complete
Can't Remember to Forget You
Imagine that you go to bed tonight and in the morning you wake up to find that four years have gone by. That's exactly what happened to Cassie Clark. When she went to bed, she was only nineteen years old, but when she wakes up thousands of miles from home and all alone in a New York City hospital with no memory of how she got there, she's twenty four. The only memories Cassie has are of her everyday boring wholesome life back home in South Carolina, but when she wakes up she's confronted with the fact that the last four years of her life have been anything but boring or wholesome. Being in New York with no money, no family, no friends, and no job is scary enough, but now good girl Cassie is left with nothing but the pieces of a past that she can't believe could actually belong to her and the mystery of what led to her being found beaten nearly to death in an old deserted warehouse. To top it all off, the only person who seems to care about Cassie anymore is a boyfriend who she doesn't even know. Owen Tracer was nothing more than a player and a thug. Girl after girl and working for the mysterious 'business' had left him burnt out and tired of his own life. He was ready to get out, take the money he'd earned before it got him killed, and go straight, but the business had one last job for him to do before he was free. Tasked with posing as the boyfriend to a girl who had somehow tangled herself in a business mess, Owen goes to the hospital prepared to feel her out for any information she may have and to get rid of her if she knew too much. What he wasn't prepared for was finding that the girl was none other than Cassie Clark. Not only did he know the girl, but he couldn't stand her. However, the Cassie he finds isn't anything like the one he remembers. Owen was only supposed to get close enough to find out if she was a danger to the business. He wasn't supposed to fall for her. But once he does, he's the only one who can save her.Complete

Why on earth did she have to wake me? "So why am I here?" I asked confused. "Well," she said pulling a short and skinny woman into the room.
