Lea Mikaelson never expected a tragedy of one night to change her and her entire life.
Leaving everything behind, she is forced to put her entire life in England aside and start fresh in America. And starting fresh isn't easy. Lea is given no other choice but to get over her horrendous nightmare and finally try to take control of her new life in order to create a future for herself.
But what happens when she meets a certain someone who has demons just like she does? Someone who's trying to get rid of their past and start fresh just like she was? Little does she know what's going to happen when they click and little she realise that maybe, just maybe she is able to call this place home.
Join Lea on her journey of getting rid of old friendships and making new ones, diminishing old memories and creating new ones, leaving old enemies behind and encountering new ones, losing love and finding it all over again.
This isn't your normal cliché love story. Okay maybe a little clichéd but just enough to get you hooked.

The Player's Game {Book #1 of the Popular Boys series}
I heard you're a player. So let's play a game. Let's sweet talk. Let's play fight. Let's talk 24/7. Let's tell each other good morning and good night every day. Let's take walks together. Let's give each other nicknames. Let's hang out with each others friends. Let's go on dates. Let's talk on the phone all night. Let's hold each other. Let's kiss and hug. And whoever falls in love first? Loses. If you asked anyone to describe Avery Harrison in three words, everyone would say; sarcastic, care-free, and stubborn. Everybody tends to love her, why? Because she's fun and always has something hilarious to say... Unless she doesn't like you of course, then you might call her; snide, sharp and bitchy. If you did the same with Hunter Matthews it would definitely be: hot, gorgeous, beautiful, and nearly everyone would miss the slight detail that he's a player. That one slight detail is the entire reason Avery hates him, he threw girls away like old tissues, why would she? But with one scheming best friend, they are both pushed into playing 'The Game' with a prize for whoever wins. They pretend to date and whoever falls, loses. The question is: who will lose, the girl against love or the player?lComplete
