After escaping the parents who failed her, Ivy Monroe moves to Santa Rosa with her younger sister, ready to start over with a new teaching job and a life of her own.
Everything seems perfect-until she meets her handsome, infuriatingly hostile neighbor, Mateo Cruz, who seems determined to keep his distance.
But when women begin disappearing from the small town without a trace, Ivy's picture-perfect fresh start takes a darker turn.
And the closer she gets to Mateo, the more she begins to wonder if the people she trusts are hiding something.

The Vampire Diaries: The Impossible Part 1
For all of the Delena shippers (including me) that stopped reading the series after L.J. got fired and the ghost authors continued the series, for the ones that need an alternate ending, or for the ones who want more :) With Mystic Falls saved, and every human's memories erased, everything can go back to the way it was... except there will be no wicked Salvatore brother to mess the order all up again. But Elena didn't just lose the love of her life; she lost her wings too, at court, but soon feels another pair coming-and not necessarily a righteous kind, but an effectual one all the same. She can no longer bear the pain of being without Damon, but there is no other option than to wait for it to become a little more tolerable... unless her first love can mend her heart. CHARACTERS THAT I DO NOT OWN BELONG TO L. J. SMITH, ALONG WITH THE SETTING IDEA, AND VAMPIRE POWERS. SOME THINGS MAY BE CHANGED. THE OTHER CHARACTERS THAT YOU WILL EVENTUALLY COME TO MEET, BELONG TO ME.Complete
BEFORE I DIE, I PRAY TO BE BORN | ✓
The real world skins you alive. It's a hazard of growing up in rural Suffolk... or possibly, it's a hazard of growing up. Either way, the Dorian Andrade and Isaiah Matalon who reunite at a party in Oxford have become equally disenchanted imitations of the boys who used to spend summers eating apples on the riverbank. A lot has changed in the six years since they saw each other. One thing is still the same: the longing for each other's company. But aren't the objects of our yearning so much easier to encounter in the imagination than when they're standing in front of us?
