Facade
Alejandra Martinez had a perfect life until she lost her mom and childhood to a violent tragedy that she witnessed. As a result, her dad fell into many patterns of abuse, leaving her to deal with the aftermath of it all. She continued life as best as she could with little hope for anything and trust in absolutely nothing, turning into someone her mother wouldn't recognize, doing whatever she needs to do to cope as well as to protect herself. During her junior year at Lower East Side High School, she meets Gabriel Santiago. He's known throughout the halls for his association with the most dangerous gang in the city, as well as his ice cold demeanor, all at the age of 17. He's as heartless as it gets - at least that's what everyone thinks. The two know nothing about each other. Despite that, they can't seem to hate each other more. But as time goes on, and they continue to cross paths, something changes. They begin to realize that there's a whole different side of the other that nobody knows about, yet it's the side that they might not hate about one another. That's what makes it even more complicated. As they each dig deeper past the facade the other has created over years of tragedy and destruction, it becomes dangerous for everyone involved.

But when she finds herself pressured into an engagement with the dark and mysterious Federico, happiness may be the least of her problems. Hellbent on sabotaging the arrangement, Elenora defies Federico in ways no one else would ever dare. Too bad Federico's never been one to back down from a challenge. Especially one that calls to him in the most feral and passionate of ways. With unforeseen betrayals and new rivals, perhaps the real challenge Federico must face is deciding whether to fight his feelings for Elenora or give into them. But even if he chooses to end his long-standing vendetta against her father for mounting sparks between them, there's no guarantee she'll risk her heart on him. *Content Advisory: This story contains coarse language, scenes with violence and mature sexual content.

The Heart's Underground
Behind the perfectly curated Instagram posts and enviable popularity at Westbrook High lies a truth that seventeen-year-old Alexa Martinez has spent years carefully burying. Abandoned by her father at a young age, she was forced to grow up faster than any child should, navigating the darkest corners of her past with nothing but raw determination and an unshakeable will to survive. Those who see her now - the confident teenage girl with the infectious laugh and fierce loyalty to her friends - would never guess at the shadows she's overcome. She's masterfully rebuilt herself from the broken pieces of her childhood, transforming into someone so strong and seemingly unshakeable that the whispers of her past have faded to barely audible echoes. But fate has a cruel sense of timing. Just as Alexa finds herself falling for Brandon, the charismatic bad boy from old money who seems to set every girl's heart racing , the carefully constructed walls around her secrets begin to crumble. What starts as a whirlwind romance with the kind of boy her mother warned her about quickly spirals into something darker, as long-buried truths claw their way to the surface. Yet even as her past threatens to eclipse her present, Alexa discovers that the revelations about her history are only the beginning. Some secrets, she's about to learn, have teeth - and the ones emerging from the shadows are sharp enough to tear apart everything she's worked so hard to build. In a world where appearances are everything and trust is a currency few can afford, Alexa must decide whether protecting her heart means sacrificing her chance at real love, and if the strength she found in surviving her past is enough to face the storms gathering on her horizon.
