But her hope of having an easy, slow-paced new life is instantly shattered when her world collides with Nick's. Hot, tall, sexy as hell, and a badass boxing champion with an attitude, he's the whole package... or not. 
He's the most conceited, cold jerk to ever roam Silver Valley High. 

The moment they meet, they take an instant disliking to each other. But when secrets and dark pasts are brought to the light, they find themselves getting closer than ever. Despite fighting hard against it, they knew they were unavoidable to each other. 

Jealousy, insecurities, and step-brothers come into play, and Samantha's past is catching up to her.

She just might crumble under the anxiety, and make big mistakes that could make her lose everything...

Because of Karson by lauren9853_

Dakota is just like every other 17 year old high school senior. Or that's what everyone thinks. Everyone sees Dakota as this funny, sarcastic, and caring girl. What people don't see is how much she is truly suffering inside. People don't know that the smile she always wears is completely fake. They don't know what's really going on at home. They don't see the bruises she has to cover up every morning. They don't see her having to step up to take care of her two younger siblings. She puts on a fake smile as soon as she walks through the school doors and slowly builds her walls up higher as each day goes on. She thinks no one will ever see past her facade...that is, until three new bad boys come strolling into town taking an automatic interest in Dakota. And one certain bad boy can read her like an open book. Will Dakota eventually let these three bad boys in? Or will she keep everything in until she finally reaches her breaking point?

Splintered Illusion by groovygia

BEWARE: the writing in this is from when I was younger, and is extremely cringey and cliche. I advise you not to read this because the writing in this is no longer a representation of my writing, and I think reflects very poorly on me. Instead, I'd love it if you tried out my newer book, which is in my opinion, much better than this. Just a suggestion, but either way, it's your choice. You've been warned. They strived to make their love perfect. To make their love into an illusion of what could've been perfection. But they were beaten and bruised. And so was their love.

Cold by fabspen

Occasional good girl with a short tempter and a love for sports, Samantha Maxwell was devoted to making her senior year count. Gossiping was never her thing but at Jefferson High School, it was only that. Especially when the hot new gossip was about Gavin Gallo. Drug dealer. Player. Your typical dark badboy with piercing. It was almost impossible to not fall for him. Every girl fell, including Samantha. And like the rest, she got her heart broken. Carnival Week was the biggest event in school, one everyone attended. But with a snow storm outside and the senior trip being cancelled, Samantha and Gavin find themselves at each others throats. Literally. With heated tension, mutual hate and flirtatious ways, it's almost impossible for Samantha to control herself around him. And that's exactly what Gavin wants. WARNING: LANGUAGE AND MATURE SCENES.
