Book 3 of the EVERYTHING series
College is all about starting fresh, finding your friends, gaining freedom... and most importantly: finding who you truly are, which is what Juliana Hartley and her friends are the most excited for.
But with starting a new chapter in their lives meant that change was bound to happen. All surrounded by new and different environments would inevitably bring breakups, new relationships, broken friendship rules, and a rift between the friend group.
And starting a new chapter didn't mean that old ones were easily left behind. The past was still haunting the friend group as they struggled to face the events that occurred the night of the accident - and, for some, made establishing a new life at college very difficult.
They say that everything changes after high school... and they were right.

My name is Delaney and this is my story. I feel compelled to give you fair warning before you embark on my journey. It's messy. It's chock-full of terrible choices and split-second decisions filled with bad judgment. It's rough, complicated and angsty-but, hey, isn't that what real life is? You live and learn through experience. You (hopefully) mature and don't make the same mistakes twice. These, however, are tough lessons to learn when you're trying to navigate through. Sure, dear reader, you will have ideas of how I could've handled it all better-I know I certainly do, in retrospect. But, I'm me. I'm human. And to err is human, right? Isn't that the popular quote people love to use as an excuse? Well-there it is. Read my life story, I dare you, but remember you've been warned. The divorce of her parents does not come as a surprise to Delaney, however her mother's swift decision to relocate to Florida throws her for a loop. After enrolling in classes at university, she makes fast friends with Shane, the quintessentially perfect guy. Jaded by her past experiences with relationships, Shane completely confounds her.

Soon after becoming her partner in literature class, he becomes her one and only copyeditor and most trusted confidant. Torn between two different worlds, Delaney stumbles through a range of decisions that lead her on an unexpected journey.

Worth It
In life we make decisions, sometimes bad, sometimes good, but they each lead us on a different path; the path of life. Some may call this path a rollercoaster, some describe it as a bumpy road or rocky mountains. Each of these description tell us the same thing; life is tough. For Ava O'Connor, life wasn't so tough. Not at the beginning. Her parents were rich businesspeople who could give her and her three sisters whatever they wanted. But as with all stories, something changed. Ava knew that she was different from her sisters; treated like and outcast, dressing strangely...etcetera, etcetera. Her mother, a cruella-devil-type, treated her as though she was a mistake, unwanted. That was, until she created a plan to 'change' her, to 'make her normal.' This plan completely tosses poor Ava into a mess of a life, one that she never thought she would have. Will she survive this and find someway to make it work? Can Ava O'Connor brave the odds and turn the mess into an adventure? Well...you'll just have to read to find out. *There's not many parts but the chapters are long.

Then a single Facebook message from Christian Brown-the school's brooding, untouchable cricket star-shattered it all. What began as a secret digital friendship of witty banter and shared confessions soon spiraled into an all-consuming love. But Christian is a boy with a past he won't explain, and Juliana is a girl learning to live outside the lines. When their carefully constructed world implodes one stormy night, they're left to pick up the pieces of a love that might be too intense to survive. This is a story for anyone who has ever loved too much, trusted too deeply, and had to find the strength to love themselves more.
