Seventeen-year-old Skye Montgomery lives a less-than-perfect lifestyle of lies, betrayal, and most of all, secrecy. Ever since Johnny Richmond-a man hardly cut out for the role of her step-father-stumbled into her life, Skye has been playing with fire in a dangerous game of How Long can You Keep a Secret? And to make matters worse, her boyfriend Bryan also has a few secrets up his sleeve-as dark and destructive as they may be-and it's only a matter of time before everything she's ever known is taken from her.

   Then she meets Jules, an infuriatingly handsome charmer with an uncanny knack for running into her. His angelic ways give her reason to smile again, while his mysterious past keeps her intrigued. And although she's certain she once loved Bryan, Jules makes her question the things she once thought were most important, altering her perspective on how things should be.

    But the question is, will she find the strength she needs to claw her way out of the black hole Johnny and Bryan have left her in? Or is she already too late?All Rights Reserved

The Lost Hybrid (Completed) by Silaraphina32

I felt the bed dip as he sat down on the other side but I focused solely on my task until I was done. "This is a pillow barrier. Meaning, you don't breach this side of the pillows." I instructed, my voice firm. "What if I don't want anything between us?" Phoenix said in a husky voice, and I risked a glance. Bad choice. His eyes were dark and his gaze was on my lips, to my chest, then back to my lips. "Eyes up here, buddy." I snapped the third time his eyes went down to my chest. All he did was turn off the lights. When it was dark, he whispered," Can't I admire what is mine?" I had no answer, and turned on my side. He sighed. Despite taking two naps today, I was out cold the minute my head hit my pillow. I could only hope that in the morning, the pillow barrier was still there. ***** Adira has a secret, one she would do anything to protect.

Liam doesn't raise his voice. He doesn't need to. When he's angry, the room gets smaller. The oxygen vanishes. Your own heartbeat betrays you. And when he left the room, slamming the heavy door behind him, I stood there for hours, unmoving. Not because I didn't want to move-but because I didn't know if I was allowed to. That night, he didn't sleep beside me. And I unraveled. I went through three different outfits. I brushed my hair seventy times. I practiced walking with books on my head like Rosa used to force me to. I whispered apologies into the dark, unsure if he could hear me. But he must have. Because in the morning, he was in the kitchen, making coffee like nothing happened. And when I wrapped my arms around him and buried my face in his back, he sighed and said, "There's my good girl."
