In a world that often demands conformity, 16 year old Jordan Grayson feels adrift. As an intersex girl she faces challenge after challenge everyday, she also grapples with the scars of her father's abuse-both physical and emotional. Moving to a new neighbourhood brings not only the chance for a fresh start but also the curious gazes of neighbours who notice her rebellious spirit.
Jordan Grayson excels in school, her grades a testament to her intelligence, yet her heart beats to the rhythm of defiance and dreams of a life filled with love. She finds solace in music, sports, and the vibrant universes of video games and books, longing for the warmth of a family that embraces her for who she truly is.
As Jordan Grayson battles her past and seeks acceptance, she must confront not only her father's oppressive influence but also the social expectations that threaten to stifle her authentic self. Will she rise above the surface, reclaiming her identity and finding the connection she craves?
"Under the Surface" is a poignant coming-of-age tale about resilience, self-discovery, and the quest for unconditional love in a world that often misunderstands.

GREY
I was frozen to my spot, watching his slightly darkened eyes roam my body and I couldn't help the embarrassment that suddenly coursed through me. Heat rushed up to my face as I timidly moved my eyes away from his intense gaze, crossing my bare legs over one another as I bit my lip. I felt completely vulnerable. The silence was soon thankfully broken when he cleared his throat, bringing my eyes back up to find him turn around to shut the bedroom door. ----------------------------------------------------------- Constantly having to move from town to town due to her father's condition was never easy for Aria Clark. Her father meant everything to her and although it's hard for her as a young teenager to start fresh every time she learns to get comfortable, she vows to do anything to be by her father's side. With no expectations she once again enters a new town, planning to get through the school years until she is told to move again. But what if Harlow is not like the other towns she had moved to in the past? What if the town and the people in it completely change her life and bring about an experience she may have never imagined? What if she was able to make friends who would stand by her for lifetime, delivering her new hopes for the future? What if they entirely change her perspective on how she sees the world and herself? And what happens when she meets Grayson Stone?Lengkap

Not only is Jordan smart, sophisticated, drop dead gorgeous, and a natural charmer but she's also intersex. But rather than hide in the shadows like most, Jordan is honest about who she is and isn't ashamed when it comes to her extra appendage between her legs. The confidence that she exudes because of it, makes her one of most eligible bachelorettes in school, as well as in town. But Jordan only has eyes for one woman. A woman who has recently become off limits. Sydney Vaughn has always wanted to be a professor at a prestigious college, but she understands that she needs to start at an entry level of teaching.

The chemistry between teacher and student is at an all time high when Jordan and Sydney step inside the classroom. With their sexual tension radiating off of each of them, hardly able to contain what they feel for each other. This school year is going to be a lot more difficult for the both of them. The question isn't, will they get together? The real question is, when will they give into their Carnal Desires?Lengkap
Brianna Acero and the Second One's Return
One hundred years ago, war threatened the existence of humanity. One man's actions might bring it back. During WWV, battles weren't won with bombs, but with science. Specifically, with DNA. Now, a person's place in society is determined by their genetic code. If your Gift is as mundane as knowing what time it is without needing a watch, you're probably a Norm, but if it's so extraordinary that it's considered a danger to the public, congratulations, you're an Elite. Seventeen-year-old Brianna Acero doesn't fall into either category. She is the only girl in the world who has no Gift at all. When life throws her a curveball and Brianna finds herself living among the Elites, she begins to uncover layers upon layers of secrets about her own past, but there is one secret that was not meant to be unlocked. Now, there is no way of putting it back in its cage. The Second One is back, and this time he won't be so forgiving. His actions could bring about a new world war, and the end of Gifted society along with it. Only Brianna is unique enough to stop him, but will she rise to the challenge? Revenge is a dangerous game, and not everyone is ready to play it.Lengkap
