Love is not easy. That is the first lesson that I learned. When you fall in love the world does not stop spinning and time does not cease to exist. Life does not become what fairy tales are made up of and you don't become overwhelmed with the sensation to proclaim your love from the roof tops.
In fact, it's quite the opposite. When you love someone and I mean really truly love someone, more times than not the world becomes a chain-link fence separating you from your adoration. Your voice shakes and your hands twitch. Your stomach feels like an atomic bomb is being placed in the pit of it and your eyes seem to want to drift into any direction but the one of your lover. Life is not fair, that's lesson number two. The world or the gods or fate is never in your favor. You have to be the luckiest person on this god forsaken planet if the person you love loves you back. It is undoubtedly common for you to have to learn to love or settle for less than what you deserve. I guess what I am saying is that the world is a dark place and love is the light within it that only very few people can see. For me, Ann Riley Keller, love is an intangible thought.

The Heart's Unspoken Love
I never knew I was the only one to see the world like this. To see it as a world where no one ever spoke a word. A world where thoughts ran free. A world where there was silents all around. A world where no one listened. I never realized it. I never knew other's couldn't do it. I thought everyone was like this and this is why I thought the world had no sound and that no one spoke to each other anymore. And when I realized that I was the only one that had been unable to make a sound and unable to listen. I felt UNSPOKEN. I had gone through so much. I was so messed up that five different personalities were created and not only that, but I also got the ability to read other's mind. I know that's a good thing, but that's not the same as being heard and all I wanted was to be heard. I am Shay Underwood. This is my notebook of my life. I'm not mentally disabled, I am not dumb, I am not stupid, and I am not an idiot, I am a human, I am a person, I am Ian Miller. Don't treat me as if I am not. Don't treat me as if I'm different. Please accept me as I am. Please understand me. The beginning of something big. Being unspoken is just another way of saying, yet to be heard. Shay is UNSPOKEN and Ian is yet to be heard.Complete

The Trap (Trapped Prequel)
Looking back, I should have seen it coming. Paige didn’t like that I went so far away to university. But it was going to only be for two years. She'd join me after she did her two years at community college. I thought we could swing that no problem. We were solid. But she hated the distance. She hated not seeing me every day. She complained that I didn’t come home enough. She hated that for months on end, texting and phone calls were our only form of communication. It wasn’t enough. She'd ask about the girls on campus. She’d gotten it into her head that girls were always making a play for me. I laughed and told her, even if that were true, I’d never cheat on her. She didn't seem completely reassured by that. The bottom line is, Paige thought she was losing me. She wanted me home with her. But I could never imagine the level she'd sink to—the trap she’d set to make that happen. And like an idiot I walked right into it. And it’s a mistake I'm going to have to pay for the rest of my life.Complete

To Be Torn Apart
For others, growing up means growing apart, but for us, it felt different. We were inseparable, two halves of a whole, convinced that as long as we had each other, we could conquer anything the world threw our way. We were bound by something that felt unshakable-a connection so deep, it was as if the universe had designed us to fit perfectly together. But life has a cruel sense of irony. None of us could have predicted that the very force keeping us together would eventually drive us apart. What we thought was our foundation slowly became the fault line of every crack, every misunderstanding, every silence that grew too heavy to bear. Sometimes love is like that-a double-edged sword. It builds and destroys, heals and hurts, holds and pushes away. And before we knew it, the thing we once believed was our greatest strength became the storm that tore us apart.
The Bullied Mate
She had tears in her eyes and was looking at me with disgust. Our eyes locked and it was like the world disappeared. It was her and me. I was to protect her with every fiber in my being and in that moment I want to cherish and comfort her and hurt whoever did this to her. Then it dawned on me. I did this. I hurt my mate. That thought alone made me want so shrivel in a ball and die. We broke eye contact when she quickly got into her car and drove away. She was my mate. A human. I had to make her love me. I have to make her forgive me. All of the hate for her washed away in that moment, that minute, that second. Disclaimer- I wrote this book when I was super naive and didn't know that the abuse written about in this book is unacceptable and not to be tolerated. Also, it's pretty bad writing. So just keep that in mind too.Complete

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ One night out at a club. One moment of shocking realisation and pure bliss. Five months of irritation and hard work.

New Girl
"You dropped this." I heard a husky voice say. I turned around to look at what I dropped and realized it was my schedule. I gasped. Damn, I would have been fucked if I'd lost it. I guess I didn't put it in my bag... I looked up to thank him, but ended up not being able to find my voice. He's really attractive. Drop dead gorgeous attractive. Hot. He has brown hair that is spiked up in a messy way and shiny chocolate brown eyes that are hard not to stare at. His jawline was firm and he is extremely tall compared to my 5'3" height; he seems like he's 6'1". He looks in good shape -- the white shirt he was wearing showed off his broad muscular chest. He wore a leather-mans jacket from the school over the t-shirt, with black denim jeans, and converse. I swallowed. I snapped out of it and took the paper forcing myself to say "thanks." However, he walked away before I even finished. OK... he obviously isn't interested in the 'new girl' like all the other students are. I can't help but feel a bit disappointed. Out of all the guys that have hit on me in school today he is the only one that has caught my eye -- bad news is that he didn't even bother. "You know him? I'm surprised the cheer-bitch hasn't threatened you yet." Jessica said, her face showing shock. "Um, no I don't know him... and cheer-bitch?" I frowned confused. "She's his ex-girlfriend, but considering she has such a small brain that is a size of a peanut, she won't leave him alone. I mean like seriously, EX; has she not heard of that quote, 'Thanks for the EXperience, Our time has EXpired, now EXit my life.' She is one clueless bimbo. Then again who would leave him alone he is S-E-X-Y!" I laughed. "I am going to love being your friend." I said while I looked back to where he had headed a while ago, but I no longer saw him. I sighed disappointed.Complete
