But beyond what she and others assume, there's chaos beneath the surface and bruises he doesn't show. Their lives collide in ways neither expects, and what begins as animosity slowly unravels into something deeper-something neither of them can explain, yet both of them feel. In a world where nothing is promised, they discover what it means to be enough-for themselves, and for each other.Complete

Typical Secrets
Two seniors that only have one thing in common, going to the same school. They hate each other because of their friend groups and past. As the two seventeen-year-old get forced to hang out together, things turn more and more complicated. Alissa wonders if Ryder still remembers or if she's just the one holding on to bad memories with him. She has always had a thing for him, but has he had a thing for her? Ryder was a part of the bad boy groups, the stoners that hung out outside of stores or outside of the school. His friends were annoying and always tended to mess with the girls. He's one of the more quiet kind but continues hanging out with them. Alissa is a part of the quiet group, that doesn't mean that she doesn't stick up for herself or argues with people least every day. She hangs out with at least two girls every day because she has no one else to stick with. She didn't mind, she didn't necessarily need many friends. People didn't like her because of her ways of saying the truth whenever it needed to be told. But this isn't your typical sassy and bad boy story, not at all. This book contains ; - body shaming. - toxic family. - purposely starving herself. - mature language - anxiety; anxiety and panic attacks.Complete

After she got the positive diagnosis, she moved to the big city where she knows no one to become another anonymous face, but this life isn't making her happy. In fact, she's more miserable than ever. An unexpected night out with a girl that seems to want to be her friend leads to all sorts of new experiences, including one that might even be love...
