He had no reason to go on, to live another second.  He wanted to end it all, take some scissors and cut the string to his never ending life.  
 
But when he saw her walk down those school hallways, smiling and laughing.  He suddenly didn't feel like cutting that string, but instead taping more on.  And maybe that's why he was still here, waiting for her to notice.  That she was the one that kept him sane, she was the one that kept him living.

(Warning* This book contains vulgar language, talks and attempts of suicide including domestic abuse, and trigger themes)

He was the only thing that made sense, the closest thing she had left to her sanity. And then, in the blink of an eye, tables were spun and her whole world came crashing down, right before her eyes. 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐫𝐚 𝐍𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐚 𝐌𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐤, austere and nearly emotionless. Withdrawn from her old school, she saw that as an opportunity to shy away from her demons, a chance to forge another path, leaving behind the bitter memories she desperately wanted an escape from. Battling with depression, struggling with the aftermath of a messy breakup and changing schools didn't come easy for Kira. But then, trouble stepping in, in the form of the grey-eyed boy that was the polar opposite of everything she stood for was the least of her expectations. 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐟𝐚𝐧 𝐁𝐢𝐛𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐲𝐨 𝐎𝐥𝐮𝐲𝐢𝐝𝐞, your daily dose of sunshine with a golden smile, coupled with a heart of gold. He had trained himself to be prepared for whatever it is that life threw in his way, but he certainly didn't expect to cross paths with the Snow Queen he couldn't stay away from, after one encounter. She piqued his curiosity. He irks her. A girl who has worn a mask all her life, torn between who she was and what she had become and a guy who waltzed into her life in the form of redemption, with just one aim in mind. To tear down her walls. Will this blossom into something more intense? With this burning attraction that tossed them into an abyss of deceits, betrayals, broken friendships and the most unlikely alliances. One word. 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐎𝐒!
His Sweet Lies by moonprince87

Her brows furrowed. "You look like you have something specific you wanna ask me." The tips of Liam's ears turned red at Emma's very accurate observation. "I, uh... I usually just bullshit my way through projects, so I have no idea what the hell I'm doing." The corners of Emma's lips formed a small smile. Liam arched his brow. "What are you smiling at?" Her smile widened. "Nothing." Ever since Emma started going to Silver Creek High, she's been bullied over her discolored eyes. It all started when a boy brought attention to her in biology class one day, laughing at her and calling her a "freak" while the rest of the class laughed along with him. She never looked at him or saw his face; she just ran out of the room crying. She was now an outcast labeled as a freak and she wanted nothing more than to just disappear. She felt she had no purpose in life. Until her sophomore year when she fell in love with Liam, the guy every girl wanted; the guy every dude wanted to be. He had stolen her heart and she now wanted nothing more than to be with him. Unfortunately, Liam seemed to want nothing to do with Emma. He seemed to be straight up avoiding her. They never interacted for 3 whole years. That is, until now in their senior year, when they get paired up for a school project. The two must put their differences aside and try to work as a team. But as they spend more time together, feelings grow deeper, and secrets start to rise to the surface. Warning: Contains mature language, sex, and topics of bullying, sexual assault/harassment, self-harm, and suicide
