She was well versed in the tragedy of men and money and demons that took control of every aspect of her life leaving her utterly alone and closed off. Desperate for an escape she runs at the first opportunity to Highton University to try for a second chance at life and solidify her fashion career. But things were not quite how she planned when she runs into her ex-boyfriend Greyson Reid. Scared and broken Catherine does everything to make sure her walls never shatter - even as she finds herself losing her heart. Greyson Reid was destined to become the world's greatest footballer. With intensive training and a captaincy, nothing was going to stand in his way to win the Championship and secure his place in the League. That was until Catherine storms back into his life and creates a sense he never knew he would experience again - even if she hates him. Cautious and careful he tries to make amends for his past mistakes whilst making sure he doesn't lose himself, or worse his career. With desperate attempts pushing around him he finds it hard to not uncover the mystery of the closed-off girl he once knew without wavering. Hearts break and paths forge defiantly in a mix of emotions that lead them both to unravel not only themselves but the haunting of their paths that threaten to destroy their futures. With past feelings flickering around them can they withhold themselves from shattering or will they go back to what they once were - strangers with no hopes?

genevieve and the band of misfits by almosts

❝So we're basically manipulating people?❞ ❝We're not manipulating anyone. We're trying to prove to people that boys don't just like girls and girls don't just like boys; that everyone is equal despite their differences; that humans should never be seen as possessions that can be toyed with for however long we deem fit. We're changing the world, one completely misguided, overly-societal high-schooler at a time.❞ ➳ And so it begins; the inevitable altering of the world, captained by Genevieve and her band of mismatched misfits.

The Illusion of Us by yannmaw

| 2022 Wattys Shortlist| |Wattpad YA Writer's Choice| |Completed| There's nothing stronger than the emotions that accompany your first love, except maybe revenge. According to everyone around her, Mina Joyce has the perfect life, though she couldn't disagree more. Not only is she stuck in a preparatory school that prioritizes status above learning but she often returns home to an empty house, her parents, like her school, prioritizing the material. Constantly struggling with the intersectionality of being a teenager as well as a woman of color in a majority white environment, she's grown tired of trying to be both the perfect daughter and the perfect student to appeal to the standards both these entities hold her to. However, when a mysterious new boy by the name of Khalil Maffa begins schooling at the elite preparatory academy, the entirety of the student body can't help but be enamored, especially Mina Joyce. For Mina, Khalil is paradoxical to the very ideals that the school and her parents place on her and she instinctively finds herself drawn to his character despite the protestations of her friends, boyfriend, and a strangely flirtatious boy by the name of Sahil who happens to be a direct link to Khalil's past. For Khalil, however, Mina Joyce is simply a means to an end. Blaming Mina's family for the death of both his own parents, Khalil's obsession with Mina is rooted in revenge and his plan is merely to use her to achieve this end. However, when their feelings for one another threaten to become too real, they must both make tough decisions. Mina must decide whether to take her life into her own hands or remain complacent, and Khalil must reevaluate his motives and decide once and for all whether the urge to pursue revenge or a meaningful first love is stronger.
