For Ellie Siegfried, her diary is her closet friend and most trusted confidant, viewed more as a little sister than a notebook.
For Kai Lang, journaling is only something he does because his therapist advised him to, in order to cope with the anxiety that threatens to overcome him.
Through an unexpected and awkward meeting in the library, the two's stories become intertwined. These stories are told through their journal entries, which record the same events, through two very different lenses.
But the more they get to know one another, Ellie and Kai discover that they bring things out in each other that they never knew existed. When Ellie befriends Kai's family, her own family struggles come bubbling up to the surface-struggles she'd tried to bury and forget.
And although Kai swore to never fall in love, or even make a close friend, perhaps the sanctuary he's needed all along isn't found in a journal, but in the strange and optimistic girl who stole his book in the library.

Fake Dating the Bad Boy
Highest rank in teen fiction #7 Highest rank in #boyfriend #2 Started 28th August 2016 COMPLETED 8th January 2017 Not edited (update - I wrote this book when I was 14/15 so I do apologise for any misspelling or mistakes in the book) Olivia Valentine wants revenge on her ex boyfriend, Aaron Black, who cheated on her with, as Liv would like to call her, the blonde haired bimbo who is only popular for her fake boobs, and what better way to get revenge than to date the one and only Cole Williams, the hot school bad boy, who girls swoon over and who Aaron Black just happens to envy. Oh fake date that is. Olivia Valentine, the girl who isn't labeled, by which I mean she is not called the nerd, the slut, the normal student, nor is she the most popular girl in the school, she is just Liv. Many boys fancy her, whilst many girls envy her. Olivia Valentine has it all, the pretty looks, the long silky hair and an extremely rich mother, despite all this, she is most definitely not a horrible, snobby, stuck-up cow, if anything, she is the exact opposite. Okay, so now add Cole Williams into the picture. Cole Williams, the one who is definitely labeled, the one labeled as the hot school bad boy. He practically has every girl just dropping at his feet and he is constantly getting into fights with other jocks. Like Liv, he also comes from a rich family, which is probably one of the reasons why he is an arrogant, cocky, self-obsessed hottie. But deep down he might just have a heart of gold. Liv and Cole have never really spoken because of Aaron, but surely when it comes to getting revenge on Aaron Black, the two can make Parties, high school drama, fights, kisses, cat fights. Your classic teen fiction.Complete
