FATAL ATTRACTION
I'm just a baby writer, so please be kind to me! 😆 Even if you don't comment or vote, please at least view the story. It would mean the world to me! So thanks for your support, and here's hoping you enjoy my writing! 🤗 Just so you know, this story is focused on school life, so there aren't a ton of characters. It's a simple story, Despite her plus-size figure, Faith had big dreams of becoming a singer and model. She believed that her voice was beautiful and that it could capture anyone's heart, including the boy she had been crushing on for two years. But no matter how hard she tried, he never seemed to notice her. Instead, he manipulated her by using her talent for his own gain and then left her behind. Feeling betrayed and heartbroken, Faith withdrew from school, unsure of what to do next. The humiliation and insults were too much for Faith to bear. As she struggled to recover from the betrayal, she swore to herself that she would have her revenge. Determined to reinvent herself, she underwent surgery to change her appearance and began plotting how to get back at her former crush. As she carried out her plan, she couldn't help but wonder if her feelings for him were still there. And what if he still hated her? Would she regret her decision to change herself? Or would they somehow find a way to be together again? © All Right ReservedComplete
The Great Pretender
Cherish had never been good at coping. She knew this. It had always been Len who'd held her together. But with Len gone, Cherish turned to the only coping mechanism she knew- denial. It was easy, simply pretend it hadn't happened; pretend he hadn't happened, pretend she hadn't happened. All she had to do was ignore any and everything that served as a reminder. Even if that meant moving and changing everything about herself and living as a shell. The problem? Everything reminded her. Her sister, her old friends, even her own skin. And she was putting so much effort into avoiding the newest truth that threatened to pull her apart, that she was letting her guard slip elsewhere. For years she'd kept a careful distance from boys, steeling her heart from a pain that scared her. And yet somehow, the strange new boys had managed, despite her best efforts, to work their way into her life. Cherish was soon going to learn that pretending was just that; pretending. That she could only patch the walls that she'd built around herself for so long. It would only be a matter of time before her dam would break and the buildup of her denials would surge through and drown her. She would need to learn to cope and trust or be washed away in the flood. Rated Mature for dark themes and substance use & abuse and languageComplete
Alluring and Avoiding
Lol this is my first book, it is terrible but I'm keeping it up for history's sake. Avery's soft, she's not a 'Roman-leader-type-dude', or a 'crush-your-inferiors-if-they-question-your-authority-kinda'-guy', she's more of a cocoa in winter kinda' gal. She likes kittens, y'know? However, the resident menace in her new school doesn't see things quite the same. He can be... difficult... And stubborn... And quite frankly, charming! I mean... Annoying...Complete

Stuck With Mr. Popular ( COMPLETED)
It took every ounce of my willpower not to reciprocate his kiss. Our lips moved in flawless synchrony. I trembled as I felt his tongue tracing my lower lip. My legs turned feeble, and I clutched his shirt for support. Suddenly, his hands released mine and firmly seized my waist, simultaneously drawing me closer. I could perceive the fervent heat emanating from his body. His heart throbbed rapidly beneath my hands. I withdrew my hand and exerted a forceful push to separate us. "Soaf... please," he implored, his azure eyes locked onto mine. "I... I have to go," I responded, taken aback by the unexpected situation. ************ Sophie Esinberg embodied the typical nerd, often seen with glasses perched on her nose and her arms clutching books tightly as she made her way through the school hallway.
