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...

Not A Good Girl by coraleigh24

In most people eyes Samantha Brooks was as good as they came, she spent her nights studying and never bothered with boys. She never drank nor did drugs, barely ever swore. Boy were they wrong about her. When Samantha wasn't at school she was sneaking in to bars, drinking, hooking up with guys she just met. She even had a couple run ins with the police. She does what she has to to pass her classes and get out of the town she hates so much, but that doesn't mean she can't have a little fun along the way. What happens when the school bad boy Wes makes a bet to win a good girls heart but ends up picking the wrong girl? How will Samantha survive her senior year when her good girl reputation goes flying out the window and all attention is on her?

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.

Warning ⚠️ This book contains dark themes, mature and triggering content, i.e. description/talk of suicide, rape, porn, and mature language. ~^~^~^~ His lips cupped mine, and a swell of warmth unfurled in my heart. It was gentle and soft, something I never expected from a guy like him. He moved his right hand from my cheek to my waist, tugging me against him, and molded our bodies together. A wave of electricity went down to my core when he licked my lips. "Open your mouth, Bella." His commanding husky voice against my lips jolted my heart, and I followed his order like a slave. With no control, a moan erupted from my throat as his tongue met mine. It was barely audible, but I knew he heard it when he smiled against my lips. He swept my hair from my face to my back and gathered them in his fist. He tugged my head back, deepening the kiss, and my heart thrashed in my chest. At that moment, I didn't need drugs to know what being high felt like because his lips were enough to send me on nine clouds. Just once and I was addicted to it. If this is how being kissed feels like, then fuck, I've wasted a lot of time. ~^~^~^~ FEATURED ON: @Romance (Romantic Suspense) HIGHEST RANKINGS: #1 Goodgirl, Darkpast #2 Badboy #5 Newadult

The Tattooed Bad Boy by ThePsychoMadHatter

Highest Rank: #1 in Teen Fiction!! VERY CLICHÉ! And written by a fucking 16 year old then who did not know better. *** "He is well known." "He is bad news." "He is dangerous." "He is a criminal." "Stay away from him!" These were all the things Zoe heard about Hunter. Hunter Adams, the school's well known bad boy. Zoe had only heard about him. She also saw him a few times smoking a cigarette and she would get disgusted and just walk past him. She never knew if he noticed her though -not that she cared either. Her purpose was to finish school and get a good job so she doesn't get homeless. Zoe seems average, but she is not. She has so much going on at home. All she secretly wishes, is that someone would save her. But she keeps on hiding all the pain behind her cute smile. Zoe is attractive; there was no doubt in that, but who knows what her clothes are hiding? Her bare body, or her bare body with scars? Zoe's life completely changes when one day the well known bad boy claims her as his. Unexpected turns, unwanted feelings, and a road of disappointments are waiting for Zoe. Her whole world is about to change.

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?
