Jared Steele had his whole summer planned out. Eat. Sleep. And eat some more. And he was more than fine with that. Just lazing about in the summer. What more could you want?
Ally Cain is a total perfectionist and self proclaimed good-girl. When she finds out that a sudden move puts her original summer plans in jeopardy, she is completely thrown for a loop. She can't stand doing nothing and with a long, unoccupied summer ahead she's left with exactly that.
But life hardly ever goes according to plan.
In a sudden turn of events, Jared is forced on a road trip without a clue as to what in hell is going on and what he's doing. The unlikely duo cross paths and soon find themselves caught up in a mess of spilled cola, watermelon spitting, fat mechanics and annoying GPS systems. Sometimes things don't work out but, hey, that's life. And in life, sometimes you need to go for the detour.

One For The Road ✔ | A short novella |
Jessie Adkins dreamt about running away ever since moving to the nothing-ever-happens town of Newton Berry as a precocious primary-schooler. Ellis Adams dreamt of road trippin' across America ever since his next door neighbour Jessie invited him in to watch Ghostbusters after school, kick starting a love affair with movies. Now that college is over and with University looming in September's shadow, the pinky swear promise made years ago to travel together across the grand old U S of A before adulthood rains down responsibility finally becomes a reality. Diners, drive-ins and dives are all part of the plan. As are Ellis' long list of movie locations, decidedly dicey motels and America's fattiest, fast foods. But all the rest? Not so much. ♥ ♥ ♥ A short(ish) story by Miss Warren WritesConcluida

Wrong Place, Wrong Time ✔️
When life gives you lemons, throw it back and demand chocolate. '"Sweet baby Satan!" I screamed, accidentally gaining the attention of the murderers. Act natural, Arya. "Did you just shoot them?!" I mentally face-palmed. So much for acting natural, "Why did you do that? Holy cheese balls that's a lot of blood." I swallowed, willing my legs to do something goddammit. But they refused to cooperate. ' Arya McKenzie is a bright seventeen year old with a knack of getting into trouble. Her only friend is her younger brother. One day, Arya was walking home- completely soaked- when she decides to take a shortcut through an alleyway. Bad idea. She sees five scary boys kill three other slightly-less-scary men. Instead of running away or screaming like a normal person, she begins to ramble to said five scary boys. Instead of letting her go, however, they kidnap her. Rude. Join Arya as she navigates through a world of skittles, llamas and finding help in the most unexpected places. "I know I'm gorgeous but no need to stare. If you want an autograph, just ask."

I Loved You Blindly [Complete]
'Accidents happen'. That's what people say. Yet, some accidents take away from us more than others. Ethan had it all. Everything was lined up in front of him. Popularity, looks, friends, a hot girlfriend and a promised future in football. In one incident that resulted in a horrible accident, he lost it all. The best friend, the girlfriend, the planned future and his sight. Fighting through darkness and depression, he built high walls that kept everyone out. Skye suffered loss too, but she kept strong for the sake of her little brother, Matt. With her aunt and brother, leaving home and moving to a new place seemed like the perfect solution. A new start that they all needed. Skye's plan was to blend in and keep to herself. Well, not the easiest task when it was obvious as daylight that you were the new girl at school. Especially when she, literally, bumped into Ethan. For Ethan who has been isolating himself and absolutely independent that he pushed everyone away, and Skye being stubborn and not in-the-least shy on saying what she thought openly, fighting and bickering was unpreventable. Skye saw through the walls that Ethan has built around himself. Drawn to him, slowly, their friendship started to turn into something else.

The Good, the Bad, and the Gwen | ✔️
FREE STORY WITH PAID BONUS CONTENT FROM HARTLEY's POV! It's a summer of firsts for 15-year-old Gwen, including a life-or-death secret that could change her forever. * * * * * Fifteen-year-old Gwen Lincoln has three goals before sophomore year begins: 1.) experience her first kiss 2.) find a way to get rid of her childish "chipmunk cheeks" for good 3.) escape the separation of her parents ... a dilemma she's keeping from her free-spirited, yet slightly unstable best friend Hartley MacKenna, who she's visiting in New Orleans during summer break. With Hartley taking charge of her ambitious to-do list, Gwen's "Summer of Change" begins, but nothing prepares her for meeting Sullivan Reed, the adorable soccer player next door, who to her utter disbelief, asks her on a date. Now, all she needs is a crash course in Kissing 101 - and her BFF has a surefire-ish plan to show her the ropes! Caught between living her life and trying to run away from it, Gwen's longing to embrace the sun-kissed wetlands of Louisiana and broaden her previously limited horizons is coming true. But when she discovers the secret her friends have been hiding - a secret that could mean the difference between life and death - she must learn to face her own demons (with a little help from the lovable Creole drag queen down the street), or surrender herself to a tragic reality.
