Julianna Rose Barter. That's me. Most people call me Julianna or Jules. Which ever suits you is fine by me. I'm 17, going on 18 living in a little coastal town in California called Lewiston. I'm a senior at McNair Acadamy. We have all the normal stereo-typical teenagers like most high schools; the jocks and cheerleaders - then there's everyone else. Nothing interesting really happens here. Until the new boy, Shane Johnson, shows up.
Julianna and her best friend, Rachelle Simmons, are best friends forever. They have high hopes for their last year of high school with Julianna's twin brother Jackson and their best guy friend Nick Marx. The foursome has been inseperable when they met in preschool at age 3. With boys and drama will they ever survive the year? What happens when college arrives next year? And what about this new boy Shane? All she wants is a perfect year, a perfect summer, perfect friends, the perfect boyfriend,and a perfect life.

The Transfer Attraction
"God, you're so addicting," I whispered, captivated by the electric feel of his lips against mine. --- Vanessa Williams thought her senior year at Brookfield High would revolve around cheerleading, newfound friendships, and leaving her mark. Little did she know that it would also lead her straight into the orbit of two captivating boys: Nick Ackerman, the star receiver with a smile that could melt hearts and a burden of family expectations weighing heavily on his shoulders, and Landon Scott, the quiet yet intriguing quarterback whose mysterious charm made her question everything she thought she wanted. Nick is irresistibly drawn to Vanessa's fierce independence and unshakeable confidence, but their connection is anything but straightforward. With his ex-girlfriend, Emma, still lurking in the shadows and Vanessa feeling the pressure of her own dreams, she begins to wonder: is this just another fleeting high school fling, or could it be something deeper? Meanwhile, Landon, with his calm demeanor and genuine understanding, becomes a comforting presence, offering her a taste of a different kind of love-one that feels safe and secure. As desire flares and choices loom closer, Vanessa finds herself torn between two boys who represent two diverging paths. With graduation approaching, she grapples with the weight of her ambition to attend a prestigious college miles away, Nick's loyalty to his family and hometown roots, and Landon's quiet hope that she might choose him instead. Caught in a whirlwind of loyalty, dreams, and passionate romance, Vanessa must confront a crucial decision: can she follow her heart without losing her sense of self? Or will her senior year leave her with more questions than answers, forever changing what she thought she knew about love and her future?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.
