How (Not) to Date a Pop Star is now published as a Paperback, Hardcover, and E-book with W by Wattpad Books!            

                                                                                                   *****

Aaliyah has a hard choice to make when her ex-best friend Tyler Moore, now a world-famous popstar, suddenly comes back into her life and says he wants to be with her. Can she handle the jealous fans and paparazzi? Most of all, can she trust her heart with someone who has so many secrets and lies? 

                                                                                                    *****

Tyler is no longer the guy he used to be. Aaliyah knows that, but she can't deny the spark that still exists between them. She won't let him distract her from pursuing a dance career in New York - no matter how well he kisses or how often he sings his way into her dreams. But Tyler has decided that being the world's heartthrob isn't enough - he wants Aaliyah, even if it means he has to face his darkest truths.

You and Me (Plus Everyone In Between Us) by esosazuwawrites

17-almost-18-year-old Ezra Thompson is tired of two things. First, is constant chatter about Dilemma, an all-boy rock band, led by the supposedly-dreamy frontman Andre Robinson that somehow has a universal grip on every teenager in the world. Personally, Ezra doesn't see the appeal. Second, being in the shadow of her more smart, successful, and popular twin brother Emmet. Ezra couldn't ask for a better life. The thing is, Ezra, can sing. Like really sing. Only her parents who are occasionally proud of her, treat it as a juvenile hobby and she could never sing in front of people. So for now, her shampoo bottles get front-row access to her once-a-night concert in the shower. But when Ezra's younger sister, Maria, signs her up for a singing reality show called Finding Solstice, she is both angry and grateful. To her surprise, she passes the audition and is invited to Los Angeles for the show. Suddenly immersed in the cutthroat music industry, Ezra faces a whirlwind competition against fame-hungry singers, all fighting tooth and nail for the same prize. Amidst the manufactured forces of the industry, she must stand her ground and protect her passion for music. As if that wasn't enough, Ezra finds herself suddenly encountering a pretentious rockstar and is unexpectedly drawn to him. As the competition heats up, Ezra finds herself at the center of a brewing scandal that could end her career before it even starts. The pressure is on, and Ezra is torn between her passion for music and the fear of being dragged down. The stakes are high, and people are unforgiving, but Ezra knows that her music is worth fighting for. With her future on the line, she must navigate the twists and turns of the music industry and stay focused on what really matters: her music and her dreams.

My Hart by windfarmerswife

WARNING!!! CONTAINS ADULT THEMES THAT MAY BE TRIGGERING! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK! THIS IS YOUR ONLY WARNING!! 18++++++ New town... New school... The possibilities could be endless, right? That is not the case for 18 yr. old Makenzie Dover. She is used to moving around every time her mother gets her heart broken, which is often. Makenzie manages to fly under the radar at all of her old schools because she is not in one place long enough to experience what being a teenager is supposed to be like. Makenzie and her mom move to Texas halfway through her Senior year, and this new place is like nothing she has ever experienced before. No place she had ever been could have prepared her for what Texas had to offer. She meets a girl, Kaylee, who gives her no choice but to be her friend. With Kaylee comes a group of people that will stick their neck out for you and expect nothing in return, for one sexy blue eyed bad boy in the group who wants more than Mak is ready to offer. Ayden Hart is the guy all the girls want and all the guy's want to be. When he sets his sights on Makenzie, will he lose his player ways, or will he ruin the best thing that has ever happened to him? When both of their pasts come back to haunt them, they find more obstacles in their road to forever they could have ever thought possible. Can they survive the secrets, or is love just not enough to hold them together?

Not good for you by mandydelaney

"This was just supposed to be summer fun. That was what we agreed on." I tried to talk to him as he was vigorously shaking his head, tearing his gaze away from me. "You were never just a summer fun to me." He stared into my eyes and I felt exposed because I might have developed some feelings for him that I've never wanted to face. Heddy Lopez has just barely graduated and is trying to find the purpose of her life when her friends take her away for the summer before they go on separate ways. Little did she know that an old crush and complicated relationships would cross her way again making her last high school summer completely different than she'd expected it to be. Secrets, heartbreaks, and empty promises siege her over and over again. And they never seem to stop. But how much an already broken heart could take before fully giving up?

Just A Friend by Kadenereadaholic

"Do you know how hard it is for me knowing that you're with someone else?" Tyler asked, staring at me intensely. "You think this is easy for me?" I asked, trying to hold back my tears. "I didn't say it was -" he began, but I cut him off. "It's not. I have to go around hating myself. Hating myself for thinking about you. Hating myself for wanting you. I just want to stop feeling this way." I stepped closer to him as my voice shook with every word. "I want to forget about you, but I just--." The rest of my sentence was cut short as Tyler took the final step, closing the gap between us and brought his lips to mine. ~~~~~~~~ Tyler is back from college to find out that the girl who once held his heart has a new boyfriend. They haven't been together for four years now, so why can't he convince himself that he's over her? Emily, who is trying to move on with her life, found a new boyfriend after four years of missing Tyler. Everything was going great, and she thought she was finally beginning to be happy again, but all that changed when Tyler moved back home. Her feelings that she thought she had buried resurfaced. Could she forget about Tyler and move on? Will Tyler remain just a friend? Or will she follow her heart? ****** This story is the sequel to "Just A Kiss." However, you don't need to read "Just A Kiss" to read this. This story can be read alone. ****** Wonderful cover made by @yourgirlnana21

King of Her Desire by CynthiaDagnal-Myron

She's rich, she's famous, she's twice his age--and she can make him a star. Should homeless teen Shoni King leave the family that needs him and the girl who loves him for her fast lane life? EDITORS PICK, JULY 2021, NARomance Awards SHORTLIST 2021. Elliott Weston, who went from child star to pop star before dropping out of the "business of show" years ago, thinks Shoni has the looks and smarts to make it big. And she's willing to share him with the world and the "other woman," Xochitl, if she must. But Shoni, who has worked hard to keep food on his family's table for most of his young life, is an old soul not easily fooled by "smoke and mirrors." Elliott fascinates him-she's worldly, wild and wonderfully "well-preserved" for her age. And, as a natural caretaker, he's also concerned by her failing health. But he loves the saner, simpler world he comes from--and a Native woman from across the border who adores him deeply and selflessly just as he is. He's standing on the edge of stardom, but should he take that leap? (MATURE--sexual content)

He Promised Forever And Always {#Wattys2018} by tyragathers

I walk out my dorm building to the cafe. Just as I'm about to open the door I hear a person call out my name. I turn around to see the person jogging towards me. Hey that person kind of looks like Jase. Wait a minute... That is Jase. "Jase?!" I ask. "What the hell is wrong with you? Why would you just leave and not tell anyone?! And do you honestly think I wouldn't follow you?" Jase says. I don't answer I just stand there like an idiot with wide eyes and an open mouth. Shock takes over my body and I begin to feel sick. I left my hometown two days ago and traveled almost 8 states away. But standing right here in front of me is the person that I was running away from. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #54 in Chicklit **WON WATTIES RETRY AWARDS!!** *****Current Cover by @writersblock924***** *****Previous Cover by @LuminouslySkyler ***** *****Banner made by @writersblock924 :) Go check out @RoyalCourtAwards Graphic Shop to get your own banners and covers!!!***** First published March 27th, 2013
