PATH TO DESTINY ✔ | (COMPLETED) by perryxlll04

Daigo Santino, a young teenage boy who lived in the world of an artist since he was ten. Everyone thought that he always gets whatever he wants, but deep inside, he was looking...searching for something which he, himself doesn't know what is it. He feels empty like something wasn't there, and he thought, maybe if he lived his life as a normal guy, he would have found it. Driezella Roy, a strong and most independent young teenage girl who'd lived with her grandmother since she was young. She always looks the best in everyone, until one day someone she'd trusted the most, broke her. Since then, she decided to live with her mother and go to work to support her family. She always wants to help everyone around her, until she doesn't realize that the only person who needs helps was herself. This story will reveal how both of these young teenagers pull together to get what they want and search for. Until eventually, they don't realize that they were brought into a path where they had destined to be. P/s: For those who'd realized, I'd changed both titles and the book cover. The story will still be the same anyway. I'm also going to add more bonus scenes so stay tuned :) #27 in teenlife Perry 💛

Fast Car | Escapes #1 by slybatspidow

Jenny Herrington's home isn't what she wished for. It never really has been. Not even before her mom walked out. Her dad is a deadbeat drunk that beats her now that her mom is out of the picture. He relies on Jenny to bring home money at the expense of dropping out of school. Little does he know that she's now a senior and is graduating the week of her 18th birthday. There's one thing Jenny wants out of her life now: an escape. She wants to move out, leave her dad and her job at Milton Foods behind, and start over again somewhere in the Rockies. Preferably somewhere that's not a grocery store. There's just one problem, though: a way to get there. She can't drive and it's not like she has a car, anyway. In the midst of making plans, a storm enters her life by the name of Brayden Milton: her boss' son and possibly one of the most stuck-up people she has ever met. After making her life miserable for weeks, he apologizes and offers to take her anywhere she wants to go to make up for it. Without another choice, she jumps at the offer. After a traumatic night, she leaves with him for what she hopes will be a better life. They eventually find themselves in Denver and in each other's arms. Her life has taken a 180 and she's struggling to keep up. Not only does she have someone who loves her, but her mom is trying to reconnect. However, Brayden can't stay in Denver forever - he has a life back in Rapid Falls that he needs to return to, one he invites her to be part of. Going back means facing all of her jagged edges again. She doesn't think she can face any of it just yet, so he leaves her with her mother and returns home. Despite her attempt at starting a new life, the jagged edges seem determined to cut her even deeper. Not even Brayden's car seems fast enough to outrun everything in her past that's still trying to dictate her future.

Growing Pains by actuallyitsmonica

In the day-to-day trenches of high school, it is almost the default-setting to believe we are the main character of our own coming-of-age story. This is not wrong. It's just ours isn't the only story there is. The jocks, the nerds, the cheerleaders, the losers, the stoners, the fangirls, the skaters. Everyone's the realest most important person in existence, all of them, at the same time, first-person narrators to their own stories, stumbling into each other's plot lines, defying the status-quo, catalysts to ups and downs. A deconstruction of all the high school tropes and cliches written over the years, a deep-dive into the psyche of students trying to finish high school while going through irrevocable self-discovery, the most improbable of connections, and the insufferable pains of growing up.

Katie Torres, daughter of a wealthy single mother, is your typical popular cheerleader who had everything she could have asked for in the world handed to her. Still, she's unhappy. A laid-back mom, attractive boyfriend, and everyone in town groveling at her feet aren't enough for Katie. When Katie finally meets her mysterious new neighbor from across the street, it's by waking up next to her in bed - but are Katie's initial assumptions about the night before what actually happened? Katie can't seem to escape the new girl, but that doesn't mean she has to like her. So why can't she stop thinking about her? They are two girls who are complete opposites. They're a lover and a fighter, a cheerleader and a rebel, and most importantly: lost and insecure. Will Katie finally admit to herself that the one thing she seemingly hates the most could be the one thing that makes her happy? Or will she realize it after it's too late?
