I'm Tara. Most people would describe me as your average teenage girl. I'm stubborn, independent, headstrong, sarcastic, and I'm guilty of sometimes caring too much. I've been through a lot in my life and people who shouldn't have come and gone... well, they did just that. I'm not saying some guy is just gonna come and turn my world upside down, because it's not that serious. Boys are never worth all of that. But this guy... his name is Austin. He hasn't altered my life, I don't feel like I can't live without him, he hasn't made me who I am today and all that other dramatic shit.
But he is just like me. Sometimes when I'm with him, it's like I'm looking at my reflection. He's the version of myself that I'm not brave enough to be. He makes me question the way I view things, the way I view other people.
Austin Smith is not good for me.
I am not good for him.
But we'll stick together anyway.

Not even when he shouts at her and hits her. Jessie's best friend, Kolleen, can't stand seeing her in that situation. With a bit of convincing - and the worst beating she'd ever received - Jessie agrees to move into an apartment with Kolleen. But not long after, Jessie is scared the worst of her nightmares will soon become a reality. Josh goes missing, and suddenly Jessie would swear she's being followed. One night changes everything, and one person soon changes Jessie's outlook. A responding officer from that fateful night begins to seek her out, at first claiming it's part of his job. As she spends time with her new friend outside of his job, she starts realizing that her feelings are evolving. After being abused for over a year, Jessie is terrified she's falling in love. What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet. She makes up her mind that if he is falling, and if he does love her, he'll wait for her to be ready, and if she loves him, she won't let herself hurt him.

Who Can Love The Bad Girl?
"You know, you're not as bad as everyone thinks you are...but you don't want people to know that, do you?" He says quietly while searching my eyes. I don't like this. I don't like where this is going. I'm Jayde fucking Monroe and I don't let anyone, especially a loser, tell me who I am. "Do you even realize who you're talking to?! You're a nobody, you don't know anything about me!" My voice is laced with anger and another emotion that I haven't felt in a very long time: fear. He swallows and takes a step closer to me, "I know who I'm talking to. I'm talking to a girl who appears to be wild and free, but in the inside, is trapped and hurt in her own prison." For the first time in forever, I'm at loss for words. ********************************** Who needs bad boys when girls could be just as bad? **warning, contains a lot of bad words and sexual language, may or may not include sex scenes (most likely will)

Childhood Sweethearts
#1 Teen Fiction | #1 Young Adult | #1 Romance "We all need someone to drive us mad." - The Wombats. He stared arrogantly down at me, a smirk plastered across his face. I sneered up at him with distaste, wanting to wrap my fingers around his neck and strangle that smirk off of him. He brushed my golden hair from my face, his long, slender fingers sparking electricity in my skin, making my knees wobble together. "Will you ever, forgive me?" he whispered huskily, his eyes intently staring into mine. His face was only mere inches from me. I just needed to reach out a little further to kiss him... "Yeah. Over my dead body." I snapped, before throwing my arms out forcefully, shoving my hands into his chest, pushing him from me. -*-*-*- He, is Carter Williams. I, am Lacey Adams. We were once, inseparable. The 'Golden Couple'. The unbreakable best friends, that everybody envied. Nothing could get between us. A part from being tighter than white on rice, we updated our status from friends to being in a relationship, frequently. We were neighbours, which meant our families were all close and even co-owned houses around our town. This, all is, until the day of my sixteenth birthday. Everything changed. The loving relationship we shared, was severed and torn apart. I couldn't hardly stand to look at him any more, without spitting fire that is. Every day is torture being around him. He was in all my classes at school and the window in my room was even directly aligned with his. So, what happens? My mother's mum gets sick, so dad and her fly out. Just them. Leaving me to stay with Carter and his parents, who are never home. We would be alone. In one house. Under the same roof. If I was insane before, I have no idea what I am now. © 2016 by LaurenJ22.

It Wasn't Love ✔️
"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape. "You drive me fucking crazy, Aria." ---------------------------- Aria Bailey finds it hard to fit in. Her parents are always busy and never have time for her.

The Hookup (Book #1)
***COMPLETE*** Book #1 in the Hookup series "You're incredibly sexy Emily" I feel sexy, especially when he's looking at me like that. I could melt into a puddle right here from the way his body is pressed so close to mine and the way his eyes are taking me in. "Hunter," I say in warning as his hand snakes further up my thigh. "Tell me to stop and I'll stop," He says as he pulls me down and nuzzles my hair. "But just remember this is a one-time thing and nobody has to find out about it if you don't want them to." By nobody I know he means Tara. She would literally disown me if she ever found out something had happened between me and one of her brothers. It's girl code, right? You can't sleep with or have any sexual relations with relatives, exes or anyone that your best friend deems unfit.
