Samantha Rosewood has a tragic past. Trying to escape from the horror that is her old high school, she moves away, all the while handling the anxiety disorder that rolled around by the same time her life hit rock bottom. 

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...

I Stole The Bad Boys Diary by fallenxroses

Scarlett Everwood isn't necessarily your average 17-year-old girl, but she's managed to get by. After a year of pulling herself back together, she's finally able to go back to school, ready to put the past in the past and move on. With a past so dark moving on is just what she needs. She's the new girl in school, so you know what that means. But Scarlett doesn't want all the drama that comes along with it. She just wants to keep a low profile, and not draw unnecessary attention towards herself. One day not paying any attention to anyone else but herself, she bumps into the schools notorious Jace Walker. Jace is rude and careless, or so she was told. He's known for not having feelings for really anyone. Breaking girls hearts right and left. So when Scarlett finds his diary maybe reading a few pages wouldn't hurt. He deserves it right? But Scarlett is forced to reveal secrets of her own she swore she wouldn't. It was just a diary. But sadly Scarlett was wrong, a lot comes along with just a diary. Scarlett is forced into so much more drama than she ever hoped for. |Highest Rank: #23 In Teen Fiction|

Then There He Was ✓ by teenagexxxsavage

FORMERLY KNOW AS MY GREEN-EYED JERK. Anxiety disorders accompanied by a heavy load of sacarsm isn't the best combination for a girl like Samantha who is currently trying to escape her past and finish highschool unscathed (if that's even possible). After the unfortunate and quite life scarring event that occurred in her former town, the least thing Sam wants is any form of drama. But once again her bad luck strikes and drama comes knocking on her front door. Ryder or Jayden as he demanded to be called after his sixteenth birthday surely has a reason for that. Sometimes, It's inexplicable how he can go from being hot enough to burn you to being cold enough to freeze you. With a secret so deep and dark it's enough to destroy him, Jayden can't help but find refuge in his two-sided life. When Sam and Ryder meet due to certain unforeseen circumstances, Sam has a hard time figuring him out(not that she wanted to either, her situation just demanded it). Accidentally, Sam finds out about Jayden's deepest darkest secrets and then, all hell breaks loose. ___ Tw: Anxiety disorder, panic attacks, violence and maybe some grotesque scenes/descriptions. A whole lot of cliches -seriously, you'd want to fling your device to the moon.

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.

chasing damnation ✔ by queenofvelaris

Avery Green is sailing through life. Or, at least, she hopes she is. She's part of a crime-busting organisation, she's lying to her family about her whereabouts, and best of all, she likes a guy who is the enemy. Could fate dig a hole deeper than the one she was already in? Mason Woods is said enemy. He's angry at his controlling father, sick of being in the gang life. Until Avery walks - well, struts - into his life. Curious as to who the beautiful girl was, he searches for her, and as he plummets further into a web of lies, he begins to question whether the blue-eyed girl is really worth it all. The pair of them are on opposite sides - Avery is part of the Salvation, and Mason works for the Damnation. It's a relationship destined to fail, especially when you throw in a bunch of violence, mafias, and blood-thirsty criminals. Right? As the two fall deeper and deeper in love, everything they've ever known will be questioned. Including the ones they love the most. Including each other. Because maybe the fairy tales were wrong. Maybe the Prince needed love and salvation just as much as the Princess did... *** NOTE: I started this story yeeeeaaarsssss ago, so the writing is cringy and slightly annoying times. You have been warned! I'd like to think it got better by the end, but maybe that's wishful thinking. Thank you to the moon and back if you read it anyway xx HIGHEST RANKING ~ #1 in 'damnation' on 08/01/21 and 15/01/22
