An Unexpected Moment
... that changes everything Sarah was starting her junior year of high school. Looking at herself in the mirror, she saw a pretty average blonde haired, blue eyed, teenager. She was neither in the popular group, nor one of the many cliched outsiders. Sarah was a nobody. She liked to blend in and lay low. It was her way out of not only this town, but her house. No one knew it, but her father was a high functioning alcoholic that often took his anger out on his family. With her older sister now in college, it had turned to her more often. Laying low in general was a good strategy. Across town, Ryan was prepping for his final year in high school. While he wasn't the stereotypical quarterback of the football team, he did fit into the popular crowd. His sports of choice included basketball and soccer, either of which might line him up for a scholarship next year. Ryan had a group of close friends and a lot of adoring acquaintances. It wasn't easy juggling his athletics and keeping the grades up, but he was just that good. The supporting parents didn't hurt either. It might be a cliché romance, but it will be fun to see what the year and beyond holds. ------------------------------------------ This is a story I wrote years ago, or at least partially wrote. As I transcribe it here, I have tried to update it a bit and give the characters/story more depth than what I had when I was younger. Hopefully it all gets pulled together!Complete
A Boy Named Jasper {Wattpad Featured Novel}
Jasper is a screwed up kid, yet no one cares enough to find out why. Bruises hide his arms and alcohol stains the walls of his house, but he pushes forward because it's the only thing left for him to do. His days are spent in and out of the school psychologist's office, while his nights are spent in fear of his father. His guitar and the secluded spot by the train tracks where he likes to play are the only saving graces in the hell that is his life. No one disrupted this normal routine until Callie came. Callie is far from screwed up; she doesn't have family issues and doesn't understand the first thing about Jasper's world. Her house is filled with answered prayers and smiles of people who love each other. Her arms are clear and her head is full of optimism that Jasper doesn't buy for a second. She never second guessed her sunny disposition on life until she stumbled upon a boy and his guitar down by the train tracks. Callie and Jasper weren't supposed to cross paths. She wasn't supposed to care and he wasn't supposed to let her get under his skin, but then again opposites weren't supposed to attract either. Callie saw the good in him where most people thought there was none ; she was captivated by Jasper because he made her question everything she knew about the world. She thought it would be easy to show him that there was still good left in the world, that there was more beyond all the bad he'd become accustomed to but sometimes it takes more than one girl's overly optimistic persistence to pull a person out of the hell they've been living in. ~~~~~ -Highest Ranking: #8 in spiritual, 10/25/17 ; #1 in Christianity, 2019 -Wattpad Featured Novel: 10/19/17Complete

20 Million Tiny Particles
Julie Page wasn't dumb. At least, not Before. In the Before, Julie was the one who kept the books for her family business, the one with good grades, the one with smart, overachieving friends. She was not the girl who fell prey to a multi-level marketing scheme, that was for sure. At least, not Before. But now, in the summer following high school graduation, Julie was living in the After. After her mother died. After she got dumped by Bryce the Great. After she locked eyes with Sheridan Highgate, the popular girl with a matching workout set and six jobs and nothing but joy in her empty, bright eyes. The girl swimming in the cotton candy pool of her ever-present water bottle. The girl Julie would never, ever be caught dead with. At least, not Before. When Sheridan takes Julie under her wing in the weirdest, saddest summer of her life, the world around her opens in a new way. A way that leads to parties filled with skinny girls with colorful "health" drinks, skeevy sales tactics, and a surprising darkness that forces Julie to face the deepest, most untouched parts of herself. In this darkly comedic young adult novel, Julie finds herself under the spell of the beautiful people -- the Diamond Girls -- and enchanted by the shattering of broken glass that makes up their mosaic. As she falls deeper into the chaotic and enigmatic world of "Diamondesq," a brand of questionable health drinks and their various accoutrements, Julie learns that no one is who they seem to be -- not Sheridan, not Bryce the Great, not her mother. Not even herself. [60K Words / Completed ]Complete
Something Happened...
"Please.." she couldn't say anything more. Her sobs didn't let her. Roman looked at her with an evil smile, not showing any sign of mercy. "I am not letting you run away like you did that night. Trust me, I'll make sure your life is miserable. I want you to feel the same pain as I am feeling right now." He roughly let go of her and Bailey lost control in her legs.

Yeah, Evangeline and I started dating. Sort of. It's mainly just show for the kids. The kids. Maybe I care more about them than I thought. Goodie sits down next to me.

I Hate Football Players
Football players are assholes. I know - my brother is their king. Older and annoyingly overprotective, he's the star quarterback at Santa Cruz High School. I love him, but everyone worships the air he breathes and it's suffocating. After a traumatic experience with a quarterback three years ago, I want nothing to do with boys and dating. All that matters is getting into college, so I ace my classes and sign up for my school's student ambassador program to boost my applications. Thankfully, I have my best friend, Harper, to get me through high school being overshadowed by my brother. My plans for a quiet, low-key senior year are destroyed when my brother's cocky, arrogant rival keeps butting into my life. Logan Hightower is a total player who expects me to drool at his feet while he uses me to burn my brother's game. If he thinks I'll fall for his gorgeous looks and shallow charms, he's totally mistaken. He'll never succeed because I hate football players.
