Good side of hell
Hi! This is my first book, and I wanted to write a story about "good" and "bad" but from a different perspective. This book talks a lot about abuse, trauma, mental health, and teen life. It's bittersweet: you'll get plot twists, mystery, action... but also some soft and sweet moments in between. It follows Layla, a girl raised to be a weapon. Her life has never been normal, and now she's sent on her first mission: to protect a boy from a wealthy family. I hope you enjoy it!Complete

"I just wanna kick this sh*t off by saying I don't give a f*** who feels a way about it. I'm 'bout to tell the stories in the truest forms. Let the words on the pages speak for itself." 𝐻.𝐼.𝑀 Pre-writes a clear message to the inspiration for his highly-anticipated 7th piece, 𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘐𝘐. Having successfully penned some #1's under his belt (𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘞𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳, 𝘋𝘢𝘺𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮.) the author redirects his imaginative story telling abilities on a sequel of his first anthology piece, 𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴. Like the last edition, you'll see 𝘏.𝘐.𝘔 take account on another 4 stories he deems "are too complicated to talk about." But yet and still, the author endures and seeks out retribution in the end of some of these stories, and then sometimes not. His originative pen work shines on "butterFLy" Much like the titular creature, watching a person you love spread their wings and take flight forever was enough to inspire the author to create such a word trembling story about a relationship unknowingly on its last wing. Stories like "The LeTTers I Left." & the novel's opening impression "shATTERed" reveal a different view of the author from what your normally use to. "shATTERed" Is, as its title proceeds, a true emotional story of a childhood friend rendered to the core by life at home, suicidal thoughts and the hardships she faced in her school life all boiling together. "I wanted 𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘐𝘐 to be completely different from the first one. Its wordplay, its messages, its emotions. I want to show you all some of the things I've seen with these eyes of mine. The innocent, the beauty, the horror, the guilt. I've seen things you've only read in books. Read about my reality." #1 in "Favoritism" 🏆 (9/13/2024) #1 in "Favoritism" 🏆 (11/4/2024) #1 in "Favoritism" 🏆 (4/10/2025)Complete

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.

Song of My Heart
There once lived a boy named Hideki Hoshino, born with a voice that shimmered like sunlight on still water. From the moment he could speak, he sang. Not for applause. Not for fame. But because his soul had stories too heavy for silence. His lullabies were whispers to his mother's fading warmth. His first ballads echoed the loneliness of a child misunderstood. As he grew, his music matured. Heartbreaks became harmonies. Loss turned into lyrics. Every song was a chapter, each note a memory carved into melody. He had no diary-only chords. No confession-only refrains. And one day, when he stood alone on a quiet stage before the world, he closed his eyes... and sang. He didn't need to explain. Because the audience felt it. His voice trembled with all the battles he'd survived-every betrayal, every night he cried into his piano, every time he smiled to hide the ache. And as the final note soared into the silence, the world stood still. Not because he was perfect... ...but because he was honest. That night, the world didn't just hear him. It understood him. And from that day forward, the name Hideki Hoshino wasn't just known as a musical genius- He was the boy who sang his soul... and made the world remember their own.
