Cassidy Evans never imagined losing it all in a single night. Her dreams shattered, her spotlight gone, and her confidence shattered. Then, in the smoky haze of a dive bar, she meets Colton Steele, Major League Baseball's golden boy. One impulsive Vegas wedding later, they strike a wild deal. Thirty days to prove if fate got it right.
Neither of them expects to fall.
But when a tragic car accident steals Colton's sight, their world crumbles. Grief, stubborn pride, and fear build walls between them; walls that seem impossible to tear down. Cassidy retreats to the quiet comfort of her Texas hometown, brokenhearted, while Colton vanishes into the misty solitude of the Pacific Northwest.
Seven months pass. Then fate pulls them back together. She's ready to fight for the love they barely had a chance to live. He's convinced he's not worthy.
Caught between memories, silence, and fragile hope, Cassidy and Colton face the ultimate question: Was their whirlwind romance just a reckless detour... or the true path all along?

Delicate Scars
The world continued to spin on its axis, countless sunsets giving way to glowing stars, but for Scarlett Reed, ever since her mother was torn out of her life like a page from a book, the days that followed blinked out of existence. Instead of comforting nights filled with home-cooked pies and joyous dancing, she spends them restrained in her comforter, submerged in darkness, her eyes swollen from the endless stream of tears. Until she is shipped to Seabrook Island, a secluded beachside town she has no interest in making her home and thrust into the whirlpool of Tyler Evans - the boy fate knew she needed. For a single summer, filled with stolen glances in the sea and captured breaths sprawled out on the sand, Scarlett and Tyler gravitate towards each other. For the first time since her world fell apart, she had found a home in someone other than her mother. But she didn't consider that her home could have secrets of his own locked behind closed doors, ones that she'd pry open in the shadows. Ones that would permanently expose the mold growing beneath the wallpaper. While her scars were slowly healing, his were burrowing deeper. When their delicate scars are revealed, will they come together to heal, or will the shrapnel tear them apart?Complete

Best friends Ellie Nichols and Colton Davis were inseparable all their lives. They stuck by each other throughout middle school and high school, all the way until they were accepted into separate colleges. Colton was offered a full scholarship for football while Ellie wanted to stay closer to home at a smaller community college. They had promised to stay in touch, but all promises are made to be broken. They lose contact and the only way Ellie sees her best friend anymore is watching him play on t.v. But all of that changes when Ellie's counselor gives her a big surprise, a letter of acceptance to the same school where Colton plays football. But with Ellie the teams athletic trainer, will it bring her closer to her best friend, or will something come between them? #15 Teen Fiction 9/23/2015Complete
