Love Like This
The Corelli and Carmichael families have been neighbors for years. The men were friends, so it only made sense for their children to be just as close. But just how close is TOO close? *** Lucas and Michaela were inseperable. So much so that they had their own standing orders at some places. They shared secrets and mischief and they loved that they could depend on one another. Lucas has held a candle for Michaela for years. She liked him too, but she moved on from her schoolgirl crush once he started dating and she realized he would never see her the same. When Lucas comes home again the Summer of her senior year of high school, things suddenly start to change between them. It makes their lives go from 0 to 100 in a heartbeat and neither of them expected it to happen. Excerpts from the story: * We've always been a good team. Hell, the best when we teamed up against others. If we can't keep an eye on him, no one can... * "So, what's the problem then?" I sit back in triumph, grinning. My hands are on my thighs but my eyes stay on my girl. "Come on," I start, stretching the two words tauntingly. Elijah groans. Michaela's eyes narrow as if telling me not to, but I was going to anyway, no matter how cute her scowl is. "Live a little."Complete

The Other Guy (BoyxBoy) ✔️
"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl? Will he fall short? Or will he fall into the arms of a guy who is in love with the girl he loves? _______________________________________ WARNING: First book EVER!

But, if you don't like the writing, please consider one of my newer works 😊 Started: May 10, 2016 Completed: September 2016Complete
It's Complicated
Senior year of high school. An already emotionally charged year thinking about possibly going to different states as your best friend for college, getting into college, learning about your friends secrets, and trying to bring up your absolutely terrible grade. So what happens when you end up falling for two of your best friends at the same time? It's been just Audrey and her mom since she was 7 and her dad left. Through the years, they've surrounded themselves with a group of supportive best friends. But after a sly comment from one of Audrey's girl friends, she starts looking at her best friend as something way more than just that. But deep down, why does she also have feelings for the Football Captain? One man she's known since she was born. He challenges her, irks her, and somehow she can't live without him. The other one: the boy next door. Best friends since he move in during 3rd grade. The sweet guy, always there for her when she needs him. Oh, and the two guys have hated each other since middle school. This story is fun to read with twists and turns. It focuses on friendship, love, what family can look like for different people, and how to keep going after loss and abuse. I wrote this in 2016 and just went through to do some re-writes but I hope you all like it!Complete

I greeted, before proceeding to tell my driver about the house address. However, I couldn't really do that because as the driver turned around to face me, I realized that Oh! It's Aaron Owens! OH MY GOD. *********************************** Ellie Rosell. Casual teenager trying to get through high school by watching Netflix, eating, spending her money on concerts, and swooning over hot guys. Just when Ellie thought she'll spend her last year of hell known as school with the same boring routine, she met Aaron Owens. And from down there, things changed. For sure. Did they change for the better? Since she's actually making friends, going out, and dare she says, falling in love? Or for the worse? With family secrets, mental health issues, heartbreak, and fake people? After all, she met the one and only Aaron Owens, and he changed her life. *********************************** "Oh my gosh! Author! reading this story was just... I have no words. The adventure you took me on was just dreamy. You made me laugh out loud so hard and you also made me cry. You made me feel the second-hand embarrassments that Ellie felt and it was so lively. You made me feel as if I was Ellie and you gave me hope that I could one day feel the same way as Ellie did towards Aaron. And all of these reasons is why your book is one of the best books I've ever read and let me tell you I've read a lot of books. Thanks for the journey and the hope you have given me!
