Everything is planned for my future. Everything should fall into right places. Everything should be perfect.
For a seventeen year old Reese Erika Drew or Red, she sure has a lot of burden to carry. She doesn't want to disappoint her parents so she offers her best to be the perfect daughter and an understanding twin to her douche of a brother. She never went to parties. She never tried going out after six in the evening. She doesn't talk to anyone but her two best friends. She never went shopping. She never talked to guys. She was happy the way she is, that is until they moved to Canada.
There, she met THE WILD LIFE.

Breaking 14
Reese Holland has always kept her head down, hidden behind a mask of humor and sarcasm, doing her best to ignore the chaos of her home life. With a drug-dealer brother, her other brother who spent his days trying to save himself and her, an alcoholic mother, and a father who was never around, Reese has learned that survival means staying quiet, keeping to herself, and never letting anyone get too close. But when she crosses paths with Tadhg Lynch-handsome, popular, and one of the most notorious members of the Hurling team-things begin to shift. Tadhg's focus on her, his interest in her, is something Reese can't ignore, even if she wants to. As the lines between friendship and something more blur, Reese is forced to confront feelings she's been burying for years. And as her relationship with Tadhg deepens, she's left questioning everything she thought she knew about herself, her family, and the life she's been trying to outrun. With friends like Landon, Jonas, and the ever-bitter Hannah, Reese finds herself caught between laughter and heartbreak, sarcasm and truth. Each conversation, each moment shared, only brings her closer to unraveling the truth-about Tadhg, about her family, and about the girl she's been pretending to be. But nothing is as simple as it seems. As secrets unfold and tensions rise, Reese must face the one thing she's been avoiding her whole life: the possibility of feeling something real. In this emotional and raw coming-of-age story, Reese learns that some things can't be fixed, but maybe-just maybe-she can learn to break free and build something new.Complete
More Than A Pretty Face |completed|
Emma Reese's main worries used to be homework, feeding her cat and being able to find her Friends reruns in the DVR. That was until she decides to do something nice for the world, something you'd think she'd be rewarded for, but it seems karma was broken that day for when she offers to lock up the school library after hours she's stormed by five teenage delinquent boys. She thinks she has them bested as she runs away from the still unlocked library when once again life throws her another curveball. Rounding the corner on her way to her gran's house when the dark, mysterious, and somewhat handsome boy she thought she escaped cuts her off. Then, you know what they say; you can't ever just have one potato chip, Mr. Mysterious's friend magically appears not only stealing her backpack but also her freedom. They decide it'd be difficult to hide her body so what's the next best thing? kidnapping. Emma's whisked away from her simpleton life into one of what seems like life in a can. She's never felt more trapped yet somehow free. Carter Tyler is a delinquent. A high schooler who'd somehow managed to work hard enough to graduate a year earlier than Emma and all of his crime thirsty friends even though he was the same age. His first time in the school library after four years of high school he thought would be boring, indifferent if you will. Instead, he somehow ends up home with a seemingly crazy girl and missing his first kiss. In Carter's eyes Emma, who had convinced him her name was Valerie, was weird beyond belief, yet he was somewhat drawn to her. He sees Emma as a judgmental nun who assumes that just because he's been to Juvie a time or two, hasn't ever kissed a girl. That just because he could have any girl in the school that he wanted, had never been on a date. He thought Emma saw him for his looks only, and for some odd reason, he wanted her to see him as more. He wanted to show her he had a heart along with Calvin Klein looks. That he was more than a pretty face.Complete
