Ivy's jinxed, or that's what her family claims anyway. Every relative that takes her in dies. Why? Even Ivy doesn't know, and anyone who could have told her was gone before she had the chance to ask. When her family finally refuses to take care of the jinxed girl, Ivy's sent to live with a family friend. The problem is his seventeen year old son.
Levi is a six foot, at ease, trouble maker and has been intrigued with Ivy ever since her arrival. Despite his unique outer features and even more alluring personality, Ivy knows she can't get close to him without risking his life, but things get even more complicated when Levi seems to know more about her strange "condition" than even Ivy does.
Will Ivy do what's best and avoid Levi like the rest of them? Or is their attraction too strong to ignore?

I can't eat. I can't sleep. And I know you know what that's like."~ Liliana is now an orphan. Just 17 years old, she lost her parents in a boating accident and now she must live with her best friend, her best friend's parents and her best friend's brother, Joseph.

His Sunshine | ✓
She looks up at me, taking a step forward and smiling slightly, "How can I ever get hurt when I have you here to protect me?" "But you could have gotten hurt," I murmur softly, hanging my head and feeling my shoulders drop, the tension seeping from my body. "No. Stop," She cuts me off sternly but tenderly, "Don't talk like that, Reece. I'm okay, you're okay, we're okay," She speaks softly, reaching her hand up to gently brush her thumb over my cheek, just under the cut that's there. "We're okay," I repeat, taking a small step closer to her. She nods with a small smile, moving her hand down from my cheek and instead placing the palm of her hand on my chest, right over my heart. I know she can feel how fast my heart is beating. I just don't know why it's doing that. ~ Reece Carter is the bad boy of Northwood High. He smokes and he fights.
