Everyone's playing a part. No one is telling to truth
Nova Dawson doesn't belong at Westbrook Academy. Not with her thrift-store uniform, scuffed sneakers, and a mouth that's always one step ahead of trouble. The halls are full of polished smiles and whispered secrets - and Nova's only here because of her father's latest "job."
Flynn Weston is golden-boy perfection: rich, charming, untouchable. But he's hiding something - a secret buried in the Weston family's past, a legacy built on lies, manipulation, and a tragedy everyone pretends never happened. And Nova? She's meant to uncover it.
Their first week is chaos. Every class, every hallway encounter, ends in sarcastic barbs and rolled eyes. Nova's too blunt, too reckless, too real. Flynn's too perfect, too guarded, too infuriating.
Then her father gives her the order she can't refuse:
"He's failing English. Get close. Earn his trust."
Nova becomes his tutor, explaining Shakespeare to the boy who sketches surfboards in the margins. She's infuriating. He's impossible. And somewhere between sarcasm and stolen moments, the walls start to crack.
But Westbrook Academy is more than a school. It's a stage, and the curtain is about to fall. The Weston family's lies are unravelling, and when the truth comes to light, no one will leave the final show unscathed.

*this is my recovered ongoing story, I lost my previous account, please keep reading here!* Nova Levine has her life going for her, working for one of the best party and events planners in the city, Signature Celebrations. It's a dream job and she's doing everything within her power to rise to the top. Her parents have tried to set her up with men before, all of whom had ideas about how to best tame her and her lifestyle. So when they insist on her bringing their idea of a date to her brother's wedding, she promises to come up with a plan. Heath Evander knew Nova when they were in high school. They were academic rivals and promised to never get involved. When he stole a top scholarship to Duke University, she would never forgive him. Now working for a rising law firm, and making a name for himself, he's surprised to see her after so long. But even though he should run from her idea, he's enticed. However, they would need to make it convincing for them to both get what they want. They are complete opposites in every way. He's dark and pragmatic. She's light and a visionary. And her family certainly wouldn't approve of him or their arrangement. But if they would stick to the rules, all would work out. After that they would part ways. But something holds them back. And something dark from their past presents itself. Secrets linger from both sides. In spite of much to tear them apart, a spark of attraction is burning to surface.

"Guys, I got another note," I say as I sit down at lunch. Vanessa and Xander were here but Hazel was missing. "Where's Hazel?" I question, eyeing her empty seat. "Out with Adam today, it's Friday," Xander says whilst I munch on my sandwich. "Did you say you got another note?" He asks and I hold my finger up and try to swallow my food as quickly I can so I can speak again. "Yeah, this one says, 'You look so beautiful in blue, I wish I could say this in person,' I really want to know who's playing this prank," I say and my eyes fall to the only prankster in Waterstone Academy, Sebastein. "I don't think it is Sebastien, he loves attention and this doesn't scream attention," Vanessa says as my eyes land on him. But my eyes move from Sebastien quickly to the hottest man in Waterstone, Vincent. He has been bugging me for a week, trying to talk to me and he even asked me to come to Logan's party on the weekend. My eyes must have been drilling holes into his face because he turns in my directions. I quickly turn back to Xander and Vanessa who were talking about their Art projects. "Okay, so if not Sebastien then who?" I voice my thoughts out loud. "Maybe you have a secret admirer," Xander says in all seriousness and I burst out laughing. My laugh attracts some attention because 1) it was loud, 2) I snorted. "Yeah right," I say once I sober up. *** A secret admirer. Everyone wishes they had one but not Amara. Her secret admirer has been torturing her ex-bullies and even though that's what she wanted before, now all she wants is for it to stop. She doesn't want anyone getting hurt because of her, she knows how that feels and she doesn't wish that on anyone. A hot boy and a secret admirer, Amara needs to figure out who her secret admirer before someone gets seriously hurt or even worse, killed.Concluida
The Devil is Marvelous
"Ava, you have to be quiet! They'll hear you-" Tears started to spill from my eyes, blending in with the rain that dripped down my face. I shouldn't have come here. The last time I followed someone I made accidentally noise and got them killed. I had to get away from Jaxon. I turned on my heel, ready to run to, but Jaxon grabbed my wrist. "Let go" I choked, "I have to leave. You're in danger-" The next thing I knew, his lips crashed onto mine. His arms wrapped around my body, pulling tightly to his chest. "Stop it" I sobbed, unable to control my trembling. "Why are you doing this? Let me go-" "I had to get you quiet" he murmured. "Please Ava. You have to try to calm down. I understand you're scared right now, but you have to trust me. We're going to get home safely. Stay with me a few more minutes, and then we'll get the f*ck out of here. I promise." -- A little about Ava: She has made the long move from Detroit, Michigan to California to escape her gruesome past. She moves in with her older sister, and is ready to start her junior year of high school. Despite the demons she carries, she holds onto hope for a bright future. A little about Jaxon: he's 17, and Oceanview High's resident bad boy. He comes from the Marvel family, a family of cold-hearted millionaires who don't seem to care much about their kids. He's also got a secret only few know, he's a dangerous member, and street racer, for the L.A. gang: Crimson Blaze. -- Achievements: #1 in streetracing #1 in teenromance #2 im highschool #3 in drama Hey all!

Before The Bad - Volume I
"If I told you my secrets, you would never look at me the same." His fingertips graze my jaw, travelling up behind my ear and into my hair. I let out a soft sigh, unsure of how I feel about all of this. It's all sort of abrupt, but the way my stomach flutters when I'm around him is undeniable. Jaxon inches his face closer and I'm sure he's going to kiss me. Only he doesn't. He shakes his head and steps back, rethinking his choice. And now, he's gone. He's left me, in the empty parking lot of Cardinal Carter, and all I'm left with is the chanting from the field. I turn my head and watch him pick up his pace as he nears his Jeep. He fooled me. Again. Really, I should've never let an old flame burn twice. ---------- If anyone's experienced childhood trauma, it's Stella Blake. In her just fourteen years of life, she's witnessed her abusive, alcoholic father repeatedly beat her mother, saved her mother's life during the last straw, and truly knows what poverty is like. Headed into her freshman year of the prestigious Cardinal Carter Academy, Stella finally feels as if she's better. She knows she is. Her mother and her are doing fine now-financially and mentally. So what could go wrong? Jaxon Spade is the complete opposite. A once good boy turned Juvenile, the Junior carries an immense secret. One that he's sure will dethrone him as king. Jaxon is set to be the heir of the Canadian Mafia, also known as his fathers company, Spade Industries. Often seen as a rich boy who doesn't understand the ways of survival, he was once declared as Stella Blake's first love. Hiding family troubles of his own, Jaxon emotionally struggles to get by. That is, until he lays his eyes on Stella Blake. Prequel to Good Gone Bad - if you'd like some insight on the characters after their high school experiences, I suggest you read that first.Concluida
‡† The Unseen †‡
"Two boys. Two shadows. One chance to fix one another." _________________ "A friendship that goes beyond brotherhood. One that explains cries. And pain. And smiles. And silence." _________________ [Disclaimer: This is not a gay novel..] After death opened his eyes, Raven started noticing the invisible. Raven was always the quiet one-observant, thoughtful, content to drift through high school unnoticed. But after losing his best friend to suicide, and then his own brother to guilt, Raven carrie the weight of what he didn't see. What he couldn't stop. So now, he watches. That's when he notices Devon-silent, sharp-edged, and unreachable. No one talks to him. No one sees him. Not really. Not until Raven is paired with him for a project, and curiosity gives way to something stronger: determination. Devon is the kind of boy people whisper about but never approach. Silent, bruised, always sketching shadows he won't explain. He doesn't fight back. He doesn't speak up. He doesn't need to-his silence says enough. Raven is everything Devon is not. Star athlete, top of his class, everyone's favorite. The golden boy. But behind the perfect smile and perfect grades, Raven is suffocating. From expectations. From pain. From the weight of keeping everything together while slowly falling apart. Unlike Raven, Devon doesn't want help. Doesn't want to be known. But Raven isn't here to fix him-he just wants to make sure no one else slips through the cracks. And when their worlds collide, it's anything but gentle. What starts as an unspoken curiosity becomes something more-a magnetic pull neither of them can understand, or control. But as secrets rise and silence grows heavier, Raven must choose: stay the golden boy everyone wants, or step into the storm Devon carries just beneath his skin. A quiet, haunting story about loss, survival, and the kind of friendship that doesn't need saving-only presence.
CLARENDON
The Monarchy is dead, but the fight for the crown has never been bloodier. Welcome to Billard Academy, where old monarchs are still in power, aristocrats rebrand themselves as old money, and the secrets and intrigue are as thick as the ivy on their ancient walls. Corin Clarendon, descendant of a broken royal line, is the only child and daughter of the Chairman. Clarendon Industries should be hers. But the rules of succession only bow to a male heir. The rule is simple: whichever boy at Billard graduates at the top of the class wins the Clarendon empire, and Corin's hand in marriage. The legacy heirs-Rothwell, Ascor, and Vandercourt-are already circling like sharks, hungry for her inheritance. They want a queen to command. They don't realize Corin isn't interested in being a wife. She's planning to be king. Then there's Lucien Green. To the elite, he's just the scholarship kid from nowhere. But Lucien is a man with a leash around his neck. Sponsored by a shadow with a lethal agenda, he's at Billard to do more than just study. Armed with an eidetic memory that makes the "top boys" look like fools-and a way of looking at Corin that makes her blood run cold and hot all at once. He's the only one who might be more dangerous than the men trying to ruin her. Only one can win. And no one must fall in love. #boardingschool #heirs #succession #rivalstolovers #inheritance games #steamyromance [updates every Wed or Thu]
Scholar
[COMPLETED] [Warning: Strong language used throughout the book.] He put his hand over my notebook and the other over mine. I glared up at him, his golden brown eyes catching my attention. "I can't write like this," I pointed out. "Is this all you care about?" Ryan asked. I shrugged. "Not this specifically, but yeah, I care about my grades." Ryan smirked. I swallowed nervously but refused to break my stoic expression. He leaned closer to me, my heart pounding so hard against my chest it felt like it might break out and fall on the table between us. His mouth was right by my ear, and I could feel his warm breath when he spoke which sent shivers down my spine. "Well, aren't you a little a scholar?" *** The only things Alex Moris ever cared about were his grades and his sister. However, when the boy his sister likes, Ryan Smithe, makes things complicated and causes him to feel things he's never felt before, Alex realizes that, maybe, there's more important things in life than grades and scholarships.

A Boy From Manning Heights ✔️
"that's rich coming from a pretty boy" I narrow my eyes. "I'm not a pretty boy." He smirks standing from the desk and reaching forward twirling a piece of my hair between his fingers. "not in the traditional sense no...but you still bleed daddy's money" I reach up gripping his wrist, maybe harder then necessary; suddenly angry. "you don't know me Jasper, don't pretend you do" He sucks in a breath before leaning forward and putting his mouth next to my ear "I know you're so desperate for me, you can't fucking think straight" My breath catches and my eyes flick up meeting his not believing I heard what I did, but there's no denying it when he pushes me against his door and his lips meet my own hungry, angry, frustrated. ••• Jasper Collins is not expecting to ever step foot inside Balton's Boys School.

Waves Between Us
High school was supposed to be simple-classes, friends, and surviving awkward moments without making a fool of yourself. But Lia Thompson's first day at Westbrook Academy proves that nothing goes as planned. Between nosy siblings, strict teachers, and trying to find her place in a sea of confident students, Lia struggles to keep her past from catching up to her. Then there's Kai Lee-the quiet, mysterious boy who seems to appear everywhere she goes. He's calm, unreadable, and frustratingly magnetic, like the tide itself, pulling her attention whether she wants it or not. As their paths continue to cross, small glances turn into lingering thoughts, and ordinary days start feeling charged with unspoken emotions. Friendships form, secrets surface, and school life becomes a series of waves Lia can't predict. From rooftop escapes and group projects to coffee shop encounters and the chaos of club sign-ups, she discovers that some connections are unavoidable-and that some feelings refuse to be ignored. Between unspoken words, laughter that lingers too long, and moments that feel like they might change everything, Lia learns that growing up isn't about avoiding the waves-it's about learning to ride them... even if they crash harder than expected.
