Artie is an eighth grade art prodigy going to Milton Middle school. For as long as she can remember, art was her passion, and Juilliard was her dream. But the instant the word 'college' escaped her lips, she didn't get her desired response. Her mom briefly informed her that 'college' was not in a single mom's budget. Basically, her only hope was scholarships. So when her art teacher, Mr. Garrett, mentions The Art Show; it becomes the sole purpose of her being in life. But once an accident occurs, Mr. Garrett must teach her about what makes a true masterpiece with three words: "Let it Breathe'"

Winning Back Mr. Right
Life is too short to be anything but ordinary. That being said, I learned how to play the guitar one day and wrote songs about love. My guitar skills maybe limited but I had so much fond memories that the callous on my fingers made a good souvenir on that musical stage in my life. As the years passed, I began taking interest in art; painting in particular. So I collected all the coloring materials I can find and start sketching in this huge white pad I got from some local bookstore. My brothers can sketch and since we share the same DNA, it's probably one of the reasons why I do contain a pinch of that same talent. To this date, sketching and painting are the two hobbies I still find interesting especially on stressful days and lonely nights. Call me greedy. It didn't stop there. My reading habit became so much more persistent that I also took a liking on writing. Wattpad paved a way for me to express myself, to show the world that I can be whoever I want to be as long as I put my heart and mind (together with a lot of hard work) to it. Thus, Winning Back Mr. Right was born. Like all relationships, one has the discretion of fulfilling, disappointing, and enduring at the same time. And just like the other girls out there, we need to find inspiration or simply to get stoked. Winning Back Mr. Right is a story about a beautiful, young lady named Airie. Airie is loved and cherished by Nathaniel, who is every girl's Mr. McDreamy. The couple is what the millenials would term today as #relationshipgoals. One day, her world turned upside down upon meeting the not-so-stranger-after-all Kevin, who happens to be every girl's Mr. McSteamy. Airie makes a mistake and crosses the line. Is love really enough to make a relationship work? Does being with someone for a long time guarantee a lifetime together? How she picked up the pieces and redeemed her rebel heart will lead her to Mr. Right. The question is...who exactly is Mr. Right?Complete
