Screen burn: "Where a permanent mark is burnt into the mask of the TV screen due to prolonged display."

If Jake's life is a TV show, the set that plays it is afflicted with screen burn, forever displaying his character in a frozen state, unable to change. He is the nice guy who always finishes last. He is stuck being the boring, straight, white male. 

Mateo is a bisexual, biracial troublemaker and everything that a girl wants. 

Jake aims to rewrite his character to win the girl of his dreams, and Mateo is going to help him (willingly or not).

The Unexpected Bloody Love by lonelymoon279

Best ranking in, #1 in oceanblueeyes #1 in mexicanmafia #1 in miamor As the dimly lit room cast eerie shadows across the table, I snatch a sleek black pistol from the table, its weight reassuringly firm in my grip. With a devilish grin, I point it squarely at Aiden's forehead. "You told me coming here would be risky for me, "I taunted, my voice dripping with confidence, "but guess what, Aiden, I am the danger myself." In response, he swiftly retrieves a gun, his movements precise and unwavering. He levels it at my forehead, not even a trace of hesitation in his eyes. The room crackles with tension as the two loaded guns lock onto each other, the standoff reaching its climax. The room seemed to hold its breath as shadows danced ominously on the walls, and the outside world remained oblivious to the high-stakes showdown within these walls. ♡♡♡ Amelia Wilson, who is 17 years old, is a simple, cute, and funny girl.

Facade Of Perfectionism by Shrya1712

'Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by' -William Shakespeare _______________________________________________________ Maya Matthews is the description of perfection, or as she has been addressed. She excels in every field she steps her foot into, be it from her perfect grades to being the best daughter a parent could ask for, you name it. Her tenderness is what attracts every guy's attention. She seems to have everything she could ask for. What could possibly be wrong with her near to perfect life? Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth. Maya has her demons that she desperately attempts to hide from the world that not a single soul knows about. Shawn Daniels is the perfect storm and the missing puzzle in Maya's life. He is the polar opposite of Maya. Smart, confident, and witty. He's often misunderstood for a bad boy, who has quite a handful of girls swooning over him. He's a carefree soul. He is the yin to her yang. What happens when they cross paths and Shawn unleashes Maya's dark secrets? Will he succeed in his mission to pull Maya out of her past, and show what life has to offer? But life is certainly not a bed of roses and nothing comes as easy. _______________________________________________________ They say love can overcome anything. You never exactly know when it will strike and turn your life upside down. Love will make you doubt every single thing that you believe in yet you will find yourself drowning in it slowly, very slowly but deeply. _______________________________________________________ All rights reserved © 2020-Shrya1712

(can we be friends?) by bubbbers

[BOOK TWO] Hugo never thought a sexuality crisis would be on the cards for him. Seriously, him being anything not straight was never even really something he'd even thought about. That was, until he kissed his best friend and it should have meant nothing but well... did this type of thing come with an instruction manual? Alex just wants to keep his best friend. Does he have feelings? Maybe. So far he's managed to ignore them. Conceal don't fucking feel as the Disney obsessed dickhead would say. But hell, he had feelings for Hugo of all people? Seriously? What the fuck universe? After winning nationals, Hugo starts acting weirder and weirder, Alex has no idea what to think. Usually, weird is normal for Hugo. They both struggle to reconcile their rapidly fading friendship. Then, well... Shit happens, and Hugo and Alex are forced closer than ever. It's a whole thing. Seriously. IMPORTANT NOTE: this is a continuation of head over heels, it picks up where the story left off, only from Hugo + Alex's povs :) I would HIGHLY recommend reading head over heels first.
