Aliyah Tate has it all. Her life is seemingly perfect. She has good grades,  a supportive family, and amazing friends. Her whole life has been planned out for her. That is until a failed class jeopardizes the changes of getting into her dream college. But when she's given an opportunity to fix her mistakes, she crosses paths with the last person she ever expected. 

Kayden Hughes has nothing. After growing up with abusive and neglectful parents, he's been in the foster care system for the past three years. He's gone his entire life taking hit after hit, never having any sense of stability. Every time he lets someone in, he ends up either losing them or getting hurt. He's on a completely opposite path. Yet somehow, he finds his life suddenly entangled with Aliyah's. 

She's determined to change his path for the better, while he's determined to not let anyone through his boundaries. But as they begin to grow closer and closer, it becomes obvious that only one of them will succeed.

In which two ex-step-siblings reconnect after just about blowing up their family the first time around... Three years ago, Maddie fell hard for Jacob Isaacs, the smartest boy in her school. The only problem was this: Her dad had quite literally gotten engaged to his mother. The two tried to dampen the flames of their burgeoning attraction for each other but not before they got caught and were the talk of the town for months. After the fall out, Maddie moved away to try and start her life over and not be known as the girl who got caught doing it with her 'brother' at prom. She hasn't seen her family in ages and intends to keep things that way. Jacob, on the other hand, has worked hard to accomplish everything he's ever dreamed of. He's stayed close to home, done exceptionally well at school, and is adored by just about everyone who meets him. There's only one problem: There's a Maddie-shaped hole where his heart used to be. But no matter how hard he tries to reach out and find her, he can't. She won't let him. He let her down and gave up on them when she needed him most. And she's not ready to forgive and forget. But then Maddie's dad passes and she's forced to come home for his funeral. It should be a quick visit. She intends to make it one. But Jacob has other plans. He let his girl slip through his fingers once and he won't let that happen again. So now he has to convince her to give him one more chance. After all, they're not related to each other anymore.

Hidden Burdens

110 parts Ongoing Mature

Ben and his wife, Kayla, are foster parents who take in kids who have met with unfortunate circumstances and traumas in their lives. While trying to help as many as he can, Ben also struggles with his own insecurities, which can be traced back to his childhood when he lost his best friend, as well as learning to navigate his own, personal walk with Jesus. Soon, he meets Kimmy, a quiet, mute kid who reminds him so much of his childhood best friend and is afraid there's more going on than what's on the surface. But as Kimmy slowly opens up, he learns she's just a sensitive soul like him, carrying a burden she shouldn't have to carry. (This is a realistic-as-possible story while still being fictional about foster care and the kids who are placed in care. I have both researched how things for the state of Arizona's Department of Children's Services are handled and from foster parents on YouTube)
