Lilac has always lived in the shadows - the invisible, chubby girl overshadowed by her picture-perfect sister, Savannah. In a family obsessed with appearances, she's the afterthought, the disappointment. But everything changes the night Savannah tries to humiliate her in front of Ryder Westbrook - the tattooed, insanely rich bad boy who doesn't even know she exists.

Except he does that night. He steps in, shattering the walls Lilac built around her heart.

What starts as a single act of kindness spirals into a dangerous game of forbidden glances, family secrets, and a love neither of them saw coming. But Ryder's wealthy, controlling family has other plans for his future - and Lilac isn't part of it.

To make matters worse, Ryder isn't exactly single. He's still tangled up with Tiffany Monroe - the girl everyone expects him to end up with. The girl his parents approve of. The girl who'll do anything to keep Lilac out of the picture.

As the weight of insecurities, betrayal, and a forbidden attraction presses down on them, Lilac must decide: is she strong enough to fight for a love everyone says she doesn't deserve? Or will she walk away before her heart shatters completely?

The Bad Boy and Me by readbooksforever
36 parts Complete
Meet Violet Summers. She's the sarcastic girl who doesn't really ever get noticed by anyone. She blends into any crowd because of how "normal" she is. And she loves it. She wouldn't be able to stand the attention of everyone around her. That's why she won't tell Ryan Bloore, her crush for three years, that she practically worships the ground he walks on. Ryan is the captain of the basketball team at their school, so guys see him like he's a god and girls act like he walks on water. If they were to date, all eyes would be on her- she would be under everyone's scrutiny. So she's kept her feelings a secret, and she's done her best to suppress her emotions these past years, but she's realized that she's been so caught up in making people not notice her that she didn't realize how lonely she would be when no one was watching. Now meet Ryder Knight. School bad boy. Quarterback captain and heartthrob. The kind that wears a leather jacket and has tattoos all over his arms. The one who shows up to school riding a motorcycle. Just your average run of the mill "if you get involved with this guy, you will meet some serious trouble" kind of male. Well, too bad for Violet, she's stuck with him now. After all of the years of pushing away her feelings for Ryan because of her fear of being seen, she is now all anyone can look at- because of Ryder. Because of him, she can feel their stares, and she hates him for it. The longer they spend time together, the more Ryder starts to realize he actually enjoys being around her-despite her snarky comments about how much she despises him. And if Violet is being completely honest with herself, she's also starting to realize she might not actually hate the fact that people are noticing her now, but hate the way Ryder makes her feel.

Completed "What the hell do you think you're doing?" I asked, glaring at him while he forcefully dragged me out of class. "You told me you need help, and here I am!" Blake yelled. "Where did that come from?! What are you even talking about?!" I screamed at him. "I know you talked to Ryder about your situation. " My eyes widen and I yanked my hands out from his grasp. "I hate you..." I growled and starting to turn around to walk back to class. " You don't mean that... I love you, goddamn it! " He shouted that loud that the students around us stopped what they're doing and looked at us. I stopped walking. Before I can make a move to turn around, he beat me to it and slammed his soft pink lips against mine. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Meet Jade Williams, typical fat, nerd, and loner you will meet in the school, but she's not how you depict it. She only has 2 best friends, Layla and Edward. They've known each other since they were 6. Jade is not the type to socialize with people, especially people thinking that they're royalty, and that's probably why she was labeled as a "loner " at bottom of the school's social chain. And on the other hand, Blake Riley, the school's most popular, hottest, and sexiest bad boy. Typical school bad boy with his signature black leather jacket and boots. All the girls drool over him, but he didn't give a shit about them. He was mysterious, he was one of the 5 Musketeers with Jason, William, Ryder, and Andy. What happens when the nerd met the school's bad boy just because of the biology pop quiz and they became friends? and soon lovers? When both of them get to know each other, their hearts slowly ache, but why? Will they heal? Or is it only one of them? Read it to find out more * Sort of a cliche story * WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE

[COMPLETED] Autumn Cross is now in 12th grade at her new school, Willington High, with only one goal in mind: passing the 12th grade and going to a good college. But her world changes when she meets Ryder Becker. Ryder Becker is one of the most popular boys in all of Willington High. I mean, all the boys want to be him and all the girls worship him. He could care less about grades because he knows that football is what's going to get him into a good college. But his carelessness in grades changes when he meets Autumn. Not only does Autumn get partnered up with Ryder for the biggest class project of the whole year, she also lives on the same street as him. In the beginning she thinks it's a total curse, but maybe it's a blessing in disguise... They both may pretend on the outside that they are fine, but truth be told, they are both broken. The way his smile doesn't match his sad eyes draws her towards him, and the scars and bruises on her skin draw him towards her. A cure for your sadness could be another person, right? Well put her broken pieces together with his, and you have cracked the code. Love could put their broken pieces back together. ----------------------------------- A sky full of stars and he was still staring at me. "Why are you staring like that?" I asked him. "You scare me, Autumn." Ryder admitted. "How come?" He looked down at the grass beneath us then back at me and gulped. "Because I want to tell you secrets I'm too scared to admit to myself." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🤍I wrote this when I was around 13-14 (i'm 19 now) so some chapters may be cringy but I am too lazy to rewrite them, and still so many people enjoy this book and i'm truly grateful!

"What the hell?! Kennedy!" I watch as Ryder turns around furiously and strides towards me. Oh oh. Maybe I took it too far... "What's wrong with you?! Did you really have to cover my car in pink sticky notes?!" He steps towards me and I take a step back. He steps forward again and I step back until I'm up against the wall. "Well if you would have left me alone when I told you to, I wouldn't have had to do it," I fire back. He chuckles. "You don't know what you just got yourself into." "What do you mea--" I get cut off by his lips on mine. I freeze. What was happening? And why did it feel so good? Ryder grabs my waist and pulls me closer to him. I wrap my arms around his neck and tangle my fingers in his hair. He bites down on my bottom lip softly. As I was about to part my lips, he pulls away. "Better watch your back," he says. He smirks at me and then turns around to leave. What just happened? ____________________ Kennedy is not like most girls. Instead of getting her nails done and gossiping, she would rather ride her motorcycle or dive jump. She didn't have any friends back at her old school, but will that change when she attends a new one? She meets the bad boy of the school, Ryder. One harmless prank of pouring some pudding over his head starts a whole other war. They prank each other and start to realise that they might have feelings for the other person and the other person might have feelings for them. Will they use that knowledge to their advantage? __________________ Highest rank: #8- teen fiction 12/29/16 Thank you to MySecretDiary for the amazing cover!!

BAD BOY ABUSED (male pov)

76 parts Complete Mature

*** This story is Liams POV from Bad Boy Abused. *** It contains detailed abuse both physical and sexual. Although this is telling the same story as BBA, the perspective from each character paints a different picture and I welcome you to read them both. *** Olivia Charles is an apprehensive, quiet girl who tries to do everything right. She has low confidence and low self esteem. Getting teased daily by her peers doesn't help. Liam Maines is Chestington Highs ultimate bad boy who parties, sleeps with girls and picks fights. But beyond the typical bad boy persona runs something much deeper and darker. When these two Seniors are forced together Olivia makes it her mission to break through all of the barriers Liam has built and find out the heartbreaking truth about his life.
