"- I haven't come here for boys, Gretux. - When my best friend gives me the wry smile, I understand she doesn't believe me. Do I even believe myself? - Well, I hope you mean it! - This seems like a threat. - Listen to me, Martux! You know I won't wipe your tears away when you cry over some guy for the hundredth time. I'm done with your 50 crushes! - I haven't come here to cry, Greta. I've come here to have fun and to make new friends, not BOYfriends. I won't fall in love here. Over my dead body. - I tell her. - You better don't play with words. They aren't just empty sounds." When a simple 16 year old Latvian girl Marta goes on an international trip, she promises herself not to fall for anybody, whether he's a hot Spanish dude or a talkative Czech guy, or a geeky Slovak schoolboy. However, everything changes the moment Marta meets HIM - her Chris.

Braxton University is located in a small, eery town that earned the name "Deathtown" because every year a freshman in college comes up missing or dies in their spring semester. Imani, Eugenie, Deasha, and Phoebe are as close as friends can be. Before they graduated high school they made a pact to always stay together and remain best friends. But after a secret and anonymous person referred to as "THEM" threatens to make their dirty little secrets come to light, they start to question everything. THEM forces the four girls to make tough decisions, throw each other under the bus and do the unthinkable in order to keep their secrets from coming to the light. ---------------------- "So you are really going to choose her over me?" Phoebe says with hurt laced in her voice and shown in her eyes. "WHAT THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO THINK?!" I shouted to the top of my lungs. The warehouse was amplifying our voices and making even the smallest sound loud. "It's your dam scrunchie left by the body!You killed her! Just admit!" "This has nothing to do with me!" Phoebe nodded her head with tears in her eyes. "I don't even have any secrets! I was just trying to protect your asses!" "Which makes you the perfect candidate for THEM, doesn't it?" Deasha made a fair point, looking at her with raised eyebrows. "You have nothing to lose, nothing to hide. THEM hasn't made you do anything, you are always there and you always know what the hell is going on. It sounds like you are the one who we should be cautious of!" Phoebe looked at me like I betrayed her. But I couldn't help to genuinely believe what Dee was saying. Even Eugenie seemed to believe it. She just didn't say it aloud, but her face told the story. The only person who hasn't been affected by this is Phoebe. -------------------- This story was inspired from the tv and book series "Pretty Little Liars."

Lola "Lolo" James has grown up on the sidelines, watching her father coach one of the most elite NFL teams in the country. Her dad's number one rule has always been ironclad: no dating the players. Ever. It's a line Lolo has never been tempted to cross-until now. When Brooks Parker, the star quarterback she tutored in college and secretly crushed on, gets drafted to her father's team, everything changes. Brooks isn't just any player; he's the one Lolo's never been able to forget. The one who made her heart race with every stolen glance and every late-night study session that ended too soon. Now, Brooks is back in her life, wearing the same team colors she's grown up loving and fearing. The chemistry between them is undeniable, and the stakes couldn't be higher. With her father's watchful eyes and the pressures of the NFL, Lolo knows she should keep her distance. But the more time she spends around Brooks, the harder it is to follow the rules. As the season heats up, so does their forbidden attraction. Lolo must decide if she's willing to risk everything-her relationship with her father, her heart, and Brooks' future on the team-for a chance at love that's always felt just out of reach. In a world where loyalty is everything and the game is life, Lolo and Brooks will have to play by their own rules if they want to win the ultimate prize: each other

"I love how this book is turning out!😍 Not cliche at all!" - i_hatecliche "We might live next door to each other," Haley said, "but we don't live in the same world." Hooking her fingers around her backpack straps, she walked away from Jace. She had barely gone a few steps before he was at her side again. "What makes you believe we don't live in the same world?" he asked. "As far as I can tell, we do." "No, we don't. I'm...me and you're Jace Cortez. The dream of every girl. The friend to every guy. The star of the school. Girls. Sports. You're the ultimate player." "It sounds like you have a preconceived notion of who I am." "And it's one that has yet to be proven wrong." From books and a lifetime of sitting on the sidelines, Haley is convinced she knows how the world works, specifically high school. Everyone has a label and a box they fit in. This knowledge, paired with parents who are fighting, a brother leaving soon for college and a best friend who moved away has made her decide to never get involved. It will take being forced to work with her fellow juniors on a project, a boy next door with a infectious smile, a star gazer with an adorable puppy, and an unlikely pair of fangirls to make her see how truly wrong she was about everything.
