Aurora did not choose to live with her biological dad. She has siblings to take care of and a mother to protect from her abusive stepfather. But she isn't left with much of a choice. So here she is, awkward white trash transplanted to a cold mansion and sent to a private rich kid school. She'd never known her dad had money because she hadn't known her dad. It would have been nice to know when she'd been living in a roach-infested trailer eating Ramen.
But she knows the guy who keeps breaking into her email account and working around the blocks on her phone. She knows very well what a lover like that will lead to. But some relationships can't be cut off cold turkey.
She tries her best to get through the adjustment by doing what she does best: acting like she's fine, being a boss of bathroom jokes, and programming dragons that can destroy any program down to its roots with a click of a mouse.
This unintentionally garners the attention of her new school's anti-social hacker, who half the student body fears and the other half avoids.

Falling For An Inmate
Prison Diaries: Book 1 (complete) A law-abiding student gets entangled with a broody inmate when she discovers there has been a miscarriage of justice. She goes in to help, but ends up breaking the first rule of interning at a prison; she falls for the inmate. ***** Carter Reynolds' teenage years ended the second the gavel hit the sound block. Or maybe they ended when the police found him standing over a dead body, drenched in blood. It might even have been before that. When he connected his fist with a face that left a broken jaw in its wake. Either way, it was over. He was sentenced to 25 years in prison. He accepted his fate, only promising himself to never care for anyone so intensely again. Almost four years into his sentence, Arya Crawford walks through the wrought iron prison gates. A self-proclaimed miniature philanthropist with a heart of gold, a law-abiding student with an urge to always have fun, a girl with a silent cause. She had taken up an internship at the New York State Penitentiary. And in time, Carter and Arya both realize something. She had broken the first rule instructed by the warden. She had fallen for an inmate. Which meant she couldn't stay. He had broken the promise he made to himself. He had started to care for her. Which meant he couldn't let her leave. But it's a little difficult to make that happen when you're stuck in a closet sized cell. And waiting twenty-one years is out of the question. ***** Highest Rankings: #6 in Romance, #2 in Passion, #4 in Badboy, #1 in Witty (for those who don't think an inmate/prison trope is their cup of tea, don't be put off because the story is first and foremost 'romance') Disclaimer** Reader discretion advised. - Mature content Story contains explicit language, sexual content, and physical and sexual violence.Complete

"I... Am here to see you.", I told him as I placed my hands around his neck. I could feel my heart beat getting faster but I had to keep it strong if I had to survive this scenario.

Bran, I was missing you so much, I just... I needed to see you.", I said as I came up with lie. "Are you drunk?", Brandon asked as he leaned in closer trying to smell my mouth.

I was missing your gorgeous face.", I told another lie. But wait? His face is gorgeous so that isn't a lie. And was I not missing seeing him?
