When Kate returns home to boarding school, she must fend off her ex-boyfriend who is now dating her sister and her childhood bully desperate to learn her newfound secrets. 

                                                       ***

An Enemies to Lovers Romance:

When Kate is forced to move back home to boarding school only to be confronted by the school's infamous bad boy and her childhood bully, she is quickly reminded of the reasons she wanted to leave so desperately in the first place- her cheating ex boyfriend being one of those reasons. 

However, Kate finds herself put in multiple precarious positions with Lachlan and faces questions about their quick changing relationship.

Tortured with past family secrets and the question of her parentage and the danger that accompanies that knowledge, Kate is in more peril than ever, and this blooming romance between her and a boy who used to make her life a living hell isn't helping with her confusion and fear.  

Can she push past the reservations she holds against Lachlan and truly let him into her heart to face the danger together, or will they be forever stained by the afterglow of the traumatic past and damage that she refused to share with anyone besides herself?All Rights Reserved

Before You Leave by fbishi

(Before You Leave #1) She was sent to boarding school over the smallest of mistakes... Okay, burning down your schools gym might have been a big one. But she didn't mean to do it. This time. And she's certainly no snitch. She's had a fine life. But she wanted something more. And so she created chaos. She was misjudged and misunderstood. And now she's the havoc of Birchwood Prep. They call her the devil's bitch, the principal's worst nightmare, and a screwed up whore. They can think what they want, JJ Ashton has heard these all throughout high school. She doesn't want a future, she just wants to take control of now. She's everything Birchwood Prep doesn't want, but is deemed to get after her Father decided it was the only option for her to find some discipline. She's not going to make it that easy for them. Gideon Andrews is the perfect student. Good grades, never missed a day, and never had been in trouble of any sort. He thinks life is great, but meeting JJ, she thinks life for him could be better. Less plain and vanilla. He hates her guts. It's mutual for her as well. But the headmaster has made it Gideon's personal mission to get her back on track and into a better life. She's allowed two screw ups, has to join a sports team, pass all of her classes with at least a C and get some friends before the year is over, or she will be held back. And she's not about to go another year in the hellhole called high school. (Marked mature for language and brief talk about sex.) *Still editing parts/making corrections* (Sequel is called: When I Stay)

Entombed in His Desire by HeidiFedor

Amanda Addington has lived a sheltered existence while growing up in a sleepy little town in upstate New York. Because of her studious attitude at school, she has little time for boys. But even if she did find the time to date, it's difficult to meet any guys since she's attended a prestigious all girls private school most of her life. As Amanda's senior year begins, she is excited about growing up and is looking forward to her eighteenth birthday. However, she has a few minor problems that most girls her age don't seem to have to deal with. Like her Uncle Robert being headmaster at her school. Not only is he the most eligible bachelor in town. But Amanda has to witness her friends and classmates crushing on him everyday. Then there is the thorn in her side, her english teacher, Karen Crenshaw. She despises Amanda for being the niece of Robert Addington. The headmaster's position is a job that Karen craves, and has no qualms about taking her anger out on Amanda. But things start to change after a new teacher of Ancient History is hired; a gorgeous man by the name of Mark Jacobson. Soon everyone's attention shifts from Robert to Mark, and even Amanda is smitten with the new handsome man in town. She is more than delighted when he asks her to help him with his research; a book he's writing about ancient Egyptian beliefs and mythologies. But strange things begin to happen. Amanda starts having erotic dreams about being seduced by a panther type creature. And although not a furry, she is in no hurry to have the dreams discontinue. Soon everyday people begin to change, and even the nastiest person in town soon becomes the most pleasant. Odd dreams that seem like memories from the past plague Amanda almost every night, and she finds it hard to trust anyone anymore. For an ancient Egyptian deity has set his sights on her. And if she is not careful, she may find herself forever Entombed in His Desire.

The Bad Boy Has A Soft Spot by infiniteflames_789

Oil doesn't mix with water, we were taught that when the teacher was ranting about the basic laws of science. It doesn't combine just like how light is always separate from the darkness. But what if they unified? In one word, disaster! This happened to a senior and a freshman at university. With the boundless arrogance of a wealthy and powerful heir combined with the neverending will for justice of a mundane, they declared arch-nemesis against each other and waged war. But after a particular red stain, black notes, an alligator and a bucketload of glue later, she will have to persist in denial and he will have to learn to be less possessive to soothe their growing affection for each other. The question is, will they give in? *in the process of editing and rewriting

Outsider ✔️ by justanathergirl3

I left behind the scared girl I was. I didn't want to be her anymore, and standing up to those who bully is what I should have done from the beginning, but it was different now. It was easier when he hated me. The torture he put me through is nothing compared to the torture I battle every day because of my feelings for him. I wanted to deny it all. Deny that it was even there, but I couldn't fool myself. I had only a couple more months before I graduate and leave this wicked old town, but will I be able to escape my own feeling? Deny the spark I felt when I am alone with him? I needed to able to survive the rest of the school year as an Outsider... **This is the second book in the Out series. I highly suggest you read the first book Outcast, so you're not confused with character, events and places**

Crazy for you. by kikithestorywriter

''Now tell me, where did he touch you?'' I slowly backed against the wall, shaking slightly. He didn't seem like himself. He seemed unstable, crazy. He seemed to... love me. Autumn's summer was a huge mess while finding love. Returning back to school, her enemy, Ace, isn't acting like himself. He's getting into more fights with Autumn's ex-boyfriends. He's avoiding Autumn even more. Even though she likes a little space, she can't shake the feeling that something's not right. So once she accidently lies to her mom that she's dating Ace, she starts to feel a rush of something. A rush... of love. Turns out, her summer just started. Remember to comment, vote and share!

The Hooded Figure by tashapea

RETURNED TO WATTPAD! "I heard he punched a teacher who tried to take his hood off." "Really? I heard that he's hideously ugly and can't stand to have other people see him." "Hmm, I was told that one time he was hooking up with a girl and he still didn't take his hood off." ----- These were the things they said about the new kid at Charlesteen High School. Were they true? No one knows, but touch his hood and you'll lose limbs. Quiet and intimidating, he never initiates conversation, and the only person who bothers to investigate this new student, is Amy. Amy Carters is an ordinary girl with problems of her own, but when her social studies teacher pairs them up for a project, she's grows curious of the hooded figure. Who is the boy who lives under the shadows? But despite her curiosity for the new student, she can't fight the attraction she feels for her new co-worker, Asher. Kind, thoughtful, and absolutely stunning, she quickly finds herself torn between Asher and the mysterious and brooding new student. The question is, who will she choose? ------- After five years of the rights to this book being owned by Dreame, it can finally be returned to Wattpad! Be warned; I wrote this book when I was 16 and I can't even remember how it ends. Heed this warning haha.

The Three Rule Deal by No-one-cares123

It was a tragic love. A beautiful, sad, misleading tragedy. Her and him, bathing in an ocean of anger for the other. But once they couldn't fight the attraction for each other they started to mess around. Fury became lust, lust became love, and love, love became loneliness, depression and gloom. Why would he leave her? Why would he brake up with her without an explanation? Why would hurt too when he was the one to make the choice? What was he trying to protect her from? But the sadness changed into something else when he came back. It brought back buried feelings. Feelings that were supposed to be dead. Yet they were more alive than ever. He hadn't forgotten her after four years and neither had she. There was something else going on, something bigger. Something that revealed why he had left. Something that put them both back in danger, but therefore back together. And closer than ever. All physically, emotionally and marital status wise. *****
