A Stick Shift Lips Rockstar Romance, Book One -
Go on, get hooked...
Ashton Wright is the quintessential artist with a tortured past. Singer-songwriter and frontman for a struggling Chicago indie band, the Stick Shift Lips, he is the epitome of a rock star. He's gorgeous, talented and his fans love him. The trouble is, his sordid past continues to haunt him to the point where he's become reclusive and withdrawn. He no longer seeks the limelight and the self-destructive guilt that he carries within is making him question whether or not he wants to leave the band for good.
His concerned bandmates worry he'll never recover from this downward spiral. Out of despair, Ashton takes out an ad for a personal assistant to keep his bandmates out of his hair.
The last thing Ashton expects to find is love and redemption in the form of Chloe Martin, a timid and shy art school graduate, stuck in a directionless dead end job. When in a twist of fate, Chloe discovers Ashton's ad in a local cafe and he offers her the job, they find themselves at a crossroads.
Dare she take the job and risk losing her heart to the haunted singer? Will she be able to adapt to the provocative lifestyle of a real life rock star and his equally challenging bandmates?

"One year. That's all it'll take. In this marriage, I'll make your life a living hell. You'll hate every second of it, and by the end, you'll regret even knowing my name." "My life's already a mess, Charlotte. Not sure what more you can do to top it. But go on, give it your best shot. Just try not to fall in love with me while you're at it, yeah?"

The Nightmare at Warped Tour [A Set It Off FanFic]
We all have that one dream that we desperately want to come true, don't we? I know I do, my name is Clementine Meadows or at least I've made it to be. My real name on my birth certificate is Amelia Rogers, I never particularly cared for the name my parents bestowed upon me, so I changed it in high school. But I should get back to the true point in this, description, or explanation, whichever. My dream is to be the merch girl for Sleeping With Sirens, I won't lie it mostly has to do with being close to Kellin Quinn, my one and only true love. But also to spend Warped Tour with a band I love on a tour I've felt I was meant to be on. Only I don't get exactly what I wanted. No, instead I'm stuck with some no name band, from Tampa, Florida. I mean who gives a damn about Set It Off? Who are they really? Does it matter? Of course, by the end of the tour, I'll learn they'll be more to me than I ever expected. Set It Off is a real band, as well as each of the band members, Cody Carson, Austin Kerr, Dan Clermont, Maxx Danziger, Zach Dewall, as well as their wonderful tour manager, Andrew Cramb. I would like to point out, that none of the guys are they way they are made out to be in this story, they are not jerks, actually they are the opposite, there wonderful and huge sweethearts. So I am being melodramatic for the story, as well as making the character out to see the guys how she wants to see them. There are many ways for everyone to talk to them, or listen to them.
