A Standalone Enemies-To-Lovers High School Romance

All the Little Secrets

Six years ago, I had a best friend with sky-blue eyes, purposefully messy brown hair, and a body that made every single girl drool on sight. I would know--it drove me absolutely crazy...until I was the one doing the drooling. Our days were filled with stomach-hurting laughter accompanied by easy conversation, and our nights were filled with secret, awkward teenage flirting. But that was when Dawson was just my best friend. Nothing more, nothing less. And then... it was more. It's a memory I pretend to see through blurry eyes, hazed by passing years of no communication. The one night that my heart was suddenly soaring through the starry night, only to catch fire as it rapidly descended seconds later. Six years was a long time to get my heart under control. A lot has changed, and yet here I am, still drooling over Dawson--my ex best friend.

Chasing Ivy

Somehow, at the ripe age of twenty-three, I find myself in line to marry a man I don't love. I grind my teeth right there at the dinner table as my mother and father go on and on about how proud they are of me. How proud they are that I, Fallon Addington, will no longer be the black sheep of the family and become the daughter they've always wanted. Marry Derek and they'll finally accept me. Marry Derek and they'll stop shoving men from their social circle in my direction. Marry Derek and become the spitting image of my mother-the perfect corporate wife with a face full of make-up and not a hair out of line. Marry Derek and all the shame and guilt will disappear.But then... I embarrassingly flash Emmett Lanning my bra, and suddenly my parents' hopes and dreams are burning up in flames, right there along with my heart.

Falling for Fallon

There's only one thing that stands in the way of having my name stamped on a big, fat check trailing with several zeros. And it goes by the name of Reid King.What is a totally average elementary school music teacher doing standing in a tour bus with the King of Music? I have no idea, but for some reason, the stars have aligned and the universe thinks I'm the one who can to help him. That, somehow, Reid King and I can collaborate on an album together and make him the authentic, raw, soul-crushing singer that he once was. Reid King thinks I'm in over my head. Heck, even I think I'm in over my head. But that check will solve all my problems, and nothing will stand in my way of getting it. Not Reid King, or his devilish smirk, or his soul-gripping voice, or his talented fingers that roam effortlessly over a guitar. Not even the steely glances he throws my way every three seconds. I'll get that money and save my family from years of heartache. And maybe... just maybe... I'll save Reid from his heartache, too.

Truth

English Prep stands tall with its ivy-covered exterior and old, wrought-iron doors. The stone gargoyles sit at the school's entrance, knowing just as much as anyone: I don't belong. Once upon a time, I did. I belonged in the "it" crowd with all the other well-endowed kids, but now, I am no longer welcome. Not after five years away from this place. Not after the scandal that landed me on the wrong side of the tracks. I'd be lying if I said I'm not looking forward to seeing the one person who was always by my side. My old best friend. My safe place. Only, Christian isn't the same boy I left behind. His cold, brooding, devastatingly attractive glare sends chills down my spine. My old best friend doesn't welcome me with open arms, and I have no idea why. Lies continue to fall from our lips. Christian wants me gone. But I'm determined to stay.

Three Summers

A flirty, fake-engagement, single-mom, hockey romance by Amazon Top 50 and USA Today Bestselling Author S.J. Sylvis I swore off men the second I trusted the wrong guy and ended up pregnant by a wealthy playboy. I was ready to prove I didn't need him--or anyone else. At least, until Malaki Young, Chicago's hottest pro hockey star, slid into the backseat of my car and proved me wrong. He's relentless on and off the ice. Especially when it comes to pursing me. Not to mention his charming smirk and annoyingly smooth one-liners have me testing the ice and thawing every boundary I swore I'd never cross again. But my ex is out for revenge... and Malaki makes an offer I never saw coming: a fake engagement. One oversized diamond. One perfectly fabricated love story. One mission: convince the world--and my revenge driven ex--that this single mom just landed one of Chicago's most sought-after bachelors. Malaki swears it's just pretend. But the deeper we get, the harder it is to tell where the lies end and we begin. And I can't help wondering how long before the ice beneath us gives way.

Skate the Line

Bexley U

Puck Block

Diversi mesi fa ero la regina della English Prep. I ragazzi si fermavano a guardare la mia gonna a quadri troppo corta e le ragazze si nascondevano dietro le porte dei loro armadietti, invidiandomi mentre dominavo i corridoi insieme al ragazzo più desiderato della scuola. Ma il problema delle regine? Spesso sono vittime della loro stessa sorte. I ragazzi non mi degnano più di uno sguardo. Le ragazze fanno una smorfia di disappunto alla sola vista dei miei capelli dorati. Ogni relazione che avevo instaurato prima si è rivelata infruttuosa unilaterale... e adesso non mi manca nessuno. Tranne Eric. In prima media gli avevo regalato un braccialetto dell'amicizia, insieme al mio giovane e ingenuo cuore. Da allora le cose sono cambiate in fretta. La ragazza dolce e gentile della porta accanto che ero un tempo si è trasformata in una persona fredda e insensibile. Eric pensa che l'abbia allontanato per colpa del mio status alla English Prep. Ma non è la verità. E per quanto io abbia bisogno di lui ora, merito ogni sguardo carico di rabbia che mi rivolge. Eric mi odia. E non posso nemmeno biasimarlo.
