21 year old, Vaughn Princeton Canetti, has been observing a mysterious girl for weeks since he's come back home to the small town of Brattlewood, Maryland, as she seems to be leaving love letters under a heart-shaped rock for someone special.
When he took his usual walk through the dark Brattlewood park every evening, he'd see her, in her fancy clothes and shoes. He did want to give her privacy, but his curiosity got the better of him; she just seemed so familiar.
The park was public, and she should know that it was open to everyone. It was after all the park that brings both the world of affluence and luxury to the world of poverty and need.

19 year old Annora Mazuré, has never wanted for anything, except for a little love and affection. And maybe a therapist.
Her sophomore year in college poses the biggest challenge of her life as she tries not to destroy the years of work she's done trying to be little miss perfect as the expectations of the town weigh-down on her shoulders. She was almost to the finish line, and all she needed was a safe space to vent. To breath. To be safe. All would be well.
Until she finds out that her safe haven has been irrevocably invaded, then she realizes one day when her invader goes silent, that she's...surprisingly missing their interference.
This is a story about a young woman who has a hard time seeing past her problems and struggles, only to find someone whose tragedy trumps hers and whose morals make her's seem shallow. A young man with a twisted past who enters the life of the only person who succeeds in helping him find his voice. They couldn't be more different. Will that pose a bigger obstacle than tragedy itself?

|18+| "Enough is enough," she said to herself. "I'm going to ask him out." Getting up from her seat, she walked over to where he was seated. "Um, hi! I was wondering if we could grab some coffee and maybe hang out sometime?" she asked nervously. He turned to her, a sense of darkness and danger emanating from him. Her body went on alert. "You shouldn't be able to see me," he said with a smiling like a Cheshire cat. . . . "I scratch and bite" she warned "You'll crawl and beg too" he smirked. . . .

But his well-laid schemes fall apart when she gets in his way.

Destined to be Together
Being a loved one isn't that difficult, is it? Some people believe it's easy. Ironically, many do not know how it feels to have people around who care for them. Some people grow up accepting the cruel world around them, forcing them to show off a tough personality and acting harsh as well. These people are often considered 'heartless' even though they might not be. While some find out reasons to be happy in every possible situation. Making new friends, ready to face challenges with a smile but not a frown and trying to understand others' problems is a small part of their personalities. Everyone in this world deserves someone with whom they can forget the rest of the world around them. It can be your family, your friends or maybe someone more than a friend... But can a cold and arrogant person ever receive any kind of affection? When a mysterious person, known by no one, starts getting attention from a transfer student, where would this lead the story? What would be the identity of this mysterious person? Trapped in a troublesome friendship, will they realize their love for each other? A simple and sweet love story of two souls, completely different from each other. Where would their destiny lead them?Complete
