In a world haunted by broken promises and shattered dreams, Astoria and Darian stand at the precipice of their fate, their souls teetering on the edge of uncertainty. For Astoria, addiction has long been the path she's tread-a dark and winding road leading only to despair. Darian, too, knows the pain of broken promises, his spirit weighed down by the burden of past sorrows.
As they confront the wreckage of their lives, they are faced with a choice: succumb to the pull of addiction and despair, or dare to believe in the possibility of something more. For too long, they have been prisoners of their own demons, shackled by the chains of their pasts. But deep within their hearts, a glimmer of hope remains-a spark of resilience that refuses to be extinguished.
Together, they embark on a journey of redemption, each step a testament to their determination to defy the odds stacked against them. Along the way, they encounter trials and tribulations, moments of weakness and doubt. But with each obstacle overcome, their resolve strengthens, their bond deepens.
As they confront the darkness within and without, they come to realize that addiction is not their inevitable path-it is merely a detour on the road to recovery. With courage and perseverance, they chart a new course-a path illuminated by the promise of healing, forgiveness, and redemption.
In "Fate's Edge," Astoria and Darian's souls are tested as they confront the ghosts of their pasts and the uncertainty of their futures. But with each other by their side, they discover that they are stronger than they ever imagined, and that together, they are ready to face whatever fate may have in store.

Some Kind of Beautiful Mess
Some people run toward new beginnings. Livie Dune is just running away. After a public breakdown and the kind of mistake small towns never let you forget, she transfers schools halfway through junior year. No friends, no attention, no second chances. Just get through the semester, disappear quietly, and maybe, finally, stop hurting. Milo Westbrooke was once untouchable--until an injury ended his future and an addiction nearly ended everything else. Now he's back from rehab, clean but not exactly clear, dragging a reputation he can't seem to shake. Everyone's just waiting for the relapse. Neither Livie nor Milo signed up for the school's peer wellness group, but skipping it isn't an option. So they make a pact: no deep talks and no saving each other. Just late-night drives, too-honest dares, and moments that almost feel like being okay. But the more they let their guards down, the more their pasts start to bleed through--and the harder it becomes to pretend they're not falling. Because broken people aren't always better apart. Sometimes, they're the only ones who get each other.

Altered
Have you ever met someone who alters the course of your life? For good or for bad, they've come in, given and taken, and then- BOOM! Your life was never the same. There's always a change, an altering of reality. When you meet those people, the reality that you've known your whole life is suddenly gone and a new one has taken its place. When those moments happen, there's no going back. You can try to return to the way things were but nothing, and I mean nothing, can take you back to exactly how it was. That's what happened to us. I think that's why we're still trying so desperately to get back to some sort of normalcy. Four years later and we're still on the ground, crawling, in search of the happiness that was lost that June. Summers will never be the same. Midnight walks through my neighborhood will never be the same. Field parties with bonfires and loud music will never be the same. I still don't know why you left and what lead you to the decision you made. What I do know is that we're here. We're alive and we're pushing forward to the future. A future that you're not a part of. But in some ways, I'm glad you're not a part of it. I just wish it wasn't like this. *** TRIGGER WARNING*** SA, abuse, suicide, substance abuse, and mental illness. This is a complete story that is much like life; fast, full of surprises, and not always how we want it to be. This has been a project of mine for over three years. It was self-published on Amazon, but after some issues in publication, I decided to just upload it on here. I hope you fall in love with these characters like I have. The friends in this story are trying to make names for themselves, figure out who they are, who they can trust, how to love, and how to separate themselves from a restrictive community. As in any coming of age story, they will experience growing pains... but will they survive them before its too late? PLEASE READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS.Complete

SOLACE (condensed version)
This is not a happy, feel-good story. This is a story of heartbreak, of a person being utterly destroyed. However, it is also a story of true friendship and loyalty, of finding oneself, of unwavering love. It is a story of keeping promises, no matter how much it kills you to keep them.

Childhood Sweethearts
#1 Teen Fiction | #1 Young Adult | #1 Romance "We all need someone to drive us mad." - The Wombats. He stared arrogantly down at me, a smirk plastered across his face. I sneered up at him with distaste, wanting to wrap my fingers around his neck and strangle that smirk off of him. He brushed my golden hair from my face, his long, slender fingers sparking electricity in my skin, making my knees wobble together. "Will you ever, forgive me?" he whispered huskily, his eyes intently staring into mine. His face was only mere inches from me. I just needed to reach out a little further to kiss him... "Yeah. Over my dead body." I snapped, before throwing my arms out forcefully, shoving my hands into his chest, pushing him from me. -*-*-*- He, is Carter Williams. I, am Lacey Adams. We were once, inseparable. The 'Golden Couple'. The unbreakable best friends, that everybody envied. Nothing could get between us. A part from being tighter than white on rice, we updated our status from friends to being in a relationship, frequently. We were neighbours, which meant our families were all close and even co-owned houses around our town. This, all is, until the day of my sixteenth birthday. Everything changed. The loving relationship we shared, was severed and torn apart. I couldn't hardly stand to look at him any more, without spitting fire that is. Every day is torture being around him. He was in all my classes at school and the window in my room was even directly aligned with his. So, what happens? My mother's mum gets sick, so dad and her fly out. Just them. Leaving me to stay with Carter and his parents, who are never home. We would be alone. In one house. Under the same roof. If I was insane before, I have no idea what I am now. © 2016 by LaurenJ22.
