As far as Elsey Hollanger is concerned, she has no artistic talent whatsoever. She can't paint, she can't sculpt, and she can't draw for the life of her. Totally and completely talentless.
When her older sister returns from her school for the arts raving about the place, Elsey is shipped off to L'Académie Artiste - the finest arts academy for miles.
Embarrassed by her supposed lack of talent, Elsey strives to prove to her classmates that she belongs at LAA - especially Charles Lindt. Charlie is an expert designer, and Elsey is paranoid that he can see right through her façade.
Caught in a lie, Elsey engages in a special 'project' - prove herself to Charlie Lindt as a true artist.
Or at least convince him.

The Badass Asian
15 year old Lianna Lisha Li is a normal Asian with a normal Asian reputation-or so everyone thinks. Her last name means "Warrior", but her appearance is nothing like a warrior. Li moves to Queens in New York City, her birthplace, to do some...stuff. There, she meets Charles Carlos Costa, a guy with black hair and black eyes as dark as night, and as handsome as hell. When he meets Li, it's like meeting a long lost twin. Li also has black eyes and black hair and is pretty. But her appearance is more dark and cold (as her middle name states: Lisha means "darkness") while Charles's (or as everyone calls him, Charlie) appearance is more sunny and warm. Charlie finds Li a bit unsettling but he sees Li as a mission to conquer her attention and approval. It is harder than it sounds. Will he be the guy that succeeds? Or will he be just another one who tried-and failed- and is just another one of the stupid guys that Li despise? But he has to do this on the run...A gang is now after Charlie since he's Li's "weakness". Is he? Or is it just a big mistake and Li would just hand him over to the gang? As a sacrifice for Li's friends?Complete

I began writing this book when I was very young and only a couple years later, I had stumbled across this app again and decided to look at what I created. In my spare time, i decided to edit as much as I could and began to write new chapters. Writing was a little hobby of mine, something that I didn't take seriously as I only wrote for fun. I definitely didn't think that my book would get this many readers!! Thank you to all of you who genuinely took time to read my book. I deeply apologise for keeping you all waiting, and left wondering if I was going ahead with this story or not. Sadly, to all of my readers who was looking forward to reading more of my story. I am sorry to say that I will not be working on this book anymore. Perhaps in the later future Heaven and Blake will make an epic return! However, as of now, their love story remains how it is. Thank you!Complete
