WATTPAD BOOKS EDITION. It only takes one moment to change your life forever . . . After her mother's deportation last year, all Soledad "Sol" Gutierrez wants is for her life to go back to normal. Everything's changed-new apartment, new school, new family dynamic-and Sol desperately wants to fit in. When she joins her community college's history club, it comes with an odd initiation process: break into Westray's oldest house and steal . . . a fork? There's just one problem: while the owners of the house aren't home, their grandson Ethan is, and when he catches Sol with her hand in the kitchen drawer, she barely escapes with the fork intact. This one chance encounter irrevocably alters her life, and Sol soon learns that sometimes fitting in isn't as important as being yourself-even if that's the hardest thing she's ever had to do.

In order to join the club, Sol must break into the oldest house in her small Californian town and steal one of their forks. The club members provide all the materials to break in; she just needs to take the utensil, take a selfie in the kitchen, and get out undetected-with the fork, of course. The problem is: Ethan Winston spots Sol in his grandparent's house, and he's determined to uncover the reason behind the break-in. However, both he and Sol are thrown for a loop when feelings begin to develop between them. And as Ethan becomes suspicious of the History Club, he and Sol get tangled in an adventure none of them were expecting.

Within months, she loses her job, falls behind at university, can no longer afford her rent-and ends up on the doorstep of the last person she ever expected to ask for help.

The runaway woman and the regular man collide in the most unexpected way. Housemates by accident. All Perrie wanted was to have peace in her newly-bought flat in London and to celebrate her new modelling contract. She did not expect to be forced to have a housemate, nor to have to explain why she looked awfully familiar to him. Dave was an unnecessary addition to her anxiety list, yet the man did not plan to leave the flat any time soon. He paid as much as she did and wanted to claim his rights, whether their dual contracts were legal or not. They were left with one choice: sharing the place until they found the solution for the mess. One bedroom and toilet each, and no messing up the shared kitchen. What happens when Dave finally figures why she looks familiar?

With a drug lord for a father and an addict for a mother, Jade Taylor was dealt a pretty shabby hand in life. Her childhood was spent in a constant state of fear, her only solace being her two half-sisters -- Charlotte and Bailey -- who were forced to live the nightmare alongside her. But things all changed when their father got sent to prison. Eight new social workers and five foster families later, the girls finally found their home. Now, at eighteen, Jade is counting down the days until her exams are over, excited to spend a stress-free summer with her boyfriend, her two best friends, and her forever family. Unfortunately, things don't always go to plan -- not in a town like Greencliff. Upon meeting the Coleman brothers -- a family that fits so well into the 'gang' culture she so desperately wants to avoid -- Jade finds herself teetering on the edge of a blade, carefully balanced between the life she wants and the life she wants to escape. And when she catches the eye of Lucas Coleman, the eldest of the brothers, it's only a matter of time before she falls. Only one question remains: Which way will she land?

He was exactly the kind of man everyone tells you you're supposed to marry. He was kind. He was stable. He remembered my coffee order, wished my mom a happy birthday, and loved me completely. But standing in front of the officiant in my white satin dress, I realized the one thing I could no longer pretend wasn't true: loving someone isn't the same thing as being in love with them. So, I whispered a breathless apology, watched his heart shatter, and walked back down the aisle. The moment I stepped through the doors of City Hall, the suffocating weight disappeared. I was terrified, heartbroken, and utterly lost. But I was free. Except the universe is cruel, and waiting right outside by his car was the first boy I ever loved. My best friend's younger brother. The holder of a secret history we broke our own hearts to end years ago because the guilt of betraying his sister was too heavy to carry. Now, my engagement ring is gone, my finger feels strangely bare, and my best friend is begging me not to run from one life straight into another. I need to learn how to be alone. I need to figure out who I am when nobody is waiting for me to choose them. But as the silence between us fills with everything we never said, I'm realizing a terrifying distinction: I don't need him. I don't need anyone. But even when I'm happy alone... I still want him.
