Her path soon crosses with that of the quirky, often rowdy Briar Cove clan. Will the wacky bunch help her get over her guilt of past mistakes and heal from the trauma of being bullied, or will they drive her over the edge where she's hanging on for dear life?

Will she finally find a home for her heart in a place filled with warmth, love and friendship... possibly even romance?

Looking at the crowd of weirdos now part of her life, Erin wonders too.

Hers Only by birdeyze

COMPLETED***** Beautiful Cover by @Ch31L92 Misty had no intention of falling in love ever---Love was for the gullible, and that she was not---until Erin came into the picture and everything changed, and she meant everything because she was more than willing and very much intent on making Erin hers only in every sense of the word. Life thought her a long time ago to make it what you want it to be and by that, you have to fit the pieces of the picture together with your own rules and yes she wanted Erin in the picture. She did not ask for these feelings that raged through her at just the mere thought of Erin, but one thing she knew there was no way she was going to deny them and not even him being her friend's boyfriend was going to stand in her way. Yes, everything in life has a cost and for Erin, someone had to pay for keeps. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• This story "Hers Only" is a work of fiction and all characters and events are entirely from the writer's mind.

Straight To You by cammie_grace

"And it took me a while to realize it, but everything I've had to go through in this life, all the pain and sadness I've had to bear . . . well, its led me straight to you." • • • After tragedy strikes Morgan Scott's family, she finds her life changing drastically again and again throughout many failed attempts of starting over. It doesn't seem to matter where Morgan ends up, the secrets and pain of her past continue to haunt her, reminding her that "starting over" isn't nearly as easy as it sounds. Ending up in her father's hometown a few months after the day her life changed forever, Morgan finds her life changing once again, and she only hopes that this time will be for the better. It isn't until after a run-in with the town's golden boy, Jack Crawford, that Morgan realizes no amount of starting over will take away the memories of the past. What Morgan doesn't know is that Jack has a secret of his own that's eerily similar to hers. And what neither of the two know is that their secrets will unintentionally bring them together, reminding the duo that they aren't as alone as they often feel.

I'm not 'Quince the person'. I'm 'Quince the looser', the venting tool, the dirt beneath your feet." ~~~ Quince has been bullied, fat shamed, and terrorized by the people at her school ever since junior high.

When a group of new kids come to town Quince will join their forces and learn the true value of self beauty.
