Discover Teen Tales Where One Girl Steals Every Boy’s Attention
What Is Love by Ashley N. Rostek
I can’t remember a time my skin was not blemished with black, purple, and blue. I don’t know what it’s like to breathe without the weight of fear on my chest.
From a young age, I mastered how to lie and how to hide my pain behind a practiced smile. I was never told, but I’ve always known that I need to cover my punishments beneath pretty, pastel clothes and white pearls.
I must always appear perfect. The perfect student. The perfect girlfriend. The perfect daughter. Some days, I meet those expectations. Some days, they change to something unachievable, and pain and fear become my whole reality.
I wish I could run away, but with my family’s money and connections, I know they would find me.
My past, present, and future have already been decided without my consent and it seems like death would be my only escape. So I don’t have any choice but to continue on with my perfect façade that grows harder and harder to bear when there’s no end to my misery in sight.
That is, until someone unexpected offers me his hand in a moment I need it—a moment I can’t hold my practiced smile. Despite so much risk of being caught, I take it, and I follow him and his friends into their world of worn black leather, ripped jeans, and dangerous men on motorcycles. A world, as my mother would say, on the wrong side of the bridge.
F*ckboy Psychos by C.M. Stunich
Whoa, there. Stop right now. You don’t want to read this. Trust me: you really, really don’t want to read this. So back away slowly, hands up, and I won’t have to kill you.
They might, though. They might be willing to warm my bed, but I wouldn’t say I trusted them. Just a bunch of psychos, really. My three f*ckboys, my three psychos.
Alexei Grove. God, what could I possibly say about him? How the mighty have fallen. Neurotic, violent, germaphobe. He hates to be touched; he hates the people who brought his family down even more.
Next, there’s Widow. Traumatized, edgy, unpredictable. Never have I seen a man so twitchy yet so alpha. Just … don’t make the mistake I did: don’t touch his f*cking car.
Lastly, there’s Bohnes. Oh, Bohnes … He’s the shadow of Prescott High. If you have enough cash, he’ll do anything. Literally anything—even bury a body. Also, he gave me severed fingers as a present. That must account for something, right?
Then there’s me. I’m a boss-a** b*tch: I race cars and I always win. Rule is: if I can ride it, I can win it. What I can’t do is protect you. So, here’s my final warning: run, don’t walk. Better yet: ride. Ride hard, ride fast, and don’t look back.
If you see my boys in the rearview, it’s already too late.
Love, Scarlett Motherf*cking Force
Finding Fate by S.M. Olivier
My name is Peyton, and I have a charmed life. I live in a beautiful mansion on top of a hill and want for nothing. My father’s successful, and my mother’s devoted to seeing me and my siblings succeed… Oh, wait…that’s not my life at all. That’s my half-sister’s life.
Until recently, I had no family, aside from my mom and dad. My life consisted of secrets, escape, two best friends, and most importantly, dance. But when my mom drops a bombshell on me, that we’re moving to her hometown hours away, all the secrets come out, including the fact that the man who I’ve called dad my whole life, is really my uncle.
So now it’s a new school, new life, new town. And let me tell you, this town hates me. My life has never been a bed of roses, to begin with, but being here? It’s hell. My best friends are far away, my dance career is on hold, and the family drama is movie-worthy.
The only thing that’s worth getting up for in the morning is my new friends, a group of guys who have made it their mission to put me under their wing. They bring me into their circle, determined to protect me and help me on my new path.
But sometimes, we get in our own way. Sometimes, you can’t walk alone. Sometimes, the only way to live your life is to lean on the ones who love you.
Web of Lies by Aly Beck
My enemy is invisible. Nameless. Faceless. Controlled. Puppets on strings. Sheep in the masses. And I’ve turned into their number one plaything.
When I transferred to East Point Prep, I had one mission in mind: find the people responsible for murdering Magnolia. Someone within these entitled walls killed my only friend and threw her overboard like she was human trash.
Now, they’ll pay. My best friend told me everything through weekly emails, leaving coded clues in her simple messages. I know every incident, and I have the names of her bullies—her murderers.
Seger, Chase, Zeppelin, Carter, and Ainsley.
Somehow everything gets twisted and turned around. Every piece of evidence turns to ash. Magnolia lied to me, and I have to unravel her words one piece at a time to understand the truth hidden within her code.
My pawns become my kings. The ones I once called my suspects turn into allies. They help me search for the invisible culprit slithering through the shadows.
The hunter becomes the hunted.
Just Drop Out by J. Bree
After surviving foster care and a high school that breeds gang members and drug dealers, I've finally found my path to freedom: emancipation and a full ride scholarship at the ultra-exclusive Hannaford Prep.
All I have to do is survive.
Keeping my head down has never been so impossible. After attracting the wrong sort of attention from the richest boy in the country, pissing off the hottest guy in school, and being humiliated in front of my favorite rock idol, I am now the target of the most popular, and cruelest, group in the junior class.
They want my blood. They can have it. I'm stronger than any spoiled rich kid.
But the upperclassmen have started a game with me as the goal and now every boy at Hannaford wants to have me. All except the three I want. For Ash, Harley, and Blaise nothing compares to destroying me.
The board is set, the pieces are in play, and the winner takes all.
Courting Darkness by Katie May & Quinn Arthurs
My whole life has been characterized by fighting. Fighting my family. And fighting for my life. Trust me—the first one is completely voluntary, and a lot of fun. The second? Not so much.
To say my family dynamic is weird is the understatement of the century. I held my first sword when I was only five years old, and I learned how to dispose of a body before I turned ten.
I may have a penchant for pink and sparkles…but that doesn’t mean I don’t know how to kick major ass as well. As if my life isn't complicated enough, my body is being ravaged by a chronic, mystery illness. Seizures? Check. Passing out? Check. Agonizing pain? Check. A host of other unexplainable ailments? Double check.
After a change in my parents’ job takes us across the country, I find myself doing something I’ve never done before—attend an actual high school, despite my sickness. But this school? Well…it’s a little weird... I'm always turned around, and there's something happening I just can't put my finger on.
And don’t even get me started on my sexy as sin teacher and his equally as gorgeous twin brother. Or Tristan, who kind of reminds me of an energetic puppy. Or Kian, who has a harem of girls at his beck and call, despite seeming unhappy with his entire life. Or Foster and Gage, who are revered and feared in equal measure.
With a serial killer stalking the streets of this odd, little town, my new friends and family are on high alert.
One thing becomes clear… Humans aren’t the only beings who walk this earth. And if I don’t uncover the secrets of my new school, I may be the killer’s next victim.
In Ruins by K.G. Reuss
He was my best friend before he was my enemy.
I’m a nobody at Black Falls High.
When the school’s mean queen forces me to my knees in front of the student body, everything changes.
Now, I’m back on my former best friend’s radar.
And this time, he has his new crew and “no” isn’t part of their vocabulary.
When a night out puts me in a compromising position, I’m at their mercy. If they don’t keep my secret, it could destroy more than my friendship.
They own me. And my former best friend is making it his mission to ruin me.
But not if I ruin them first.
Problem Child by Heather Long
Born into Hollywood royalty, I’ve been making the hot sheet and generating internet buzz since before I could even walk. Doesn’t matter that my parents divorced prior to my second birthday, I can’t escape the shadows—or scandals—of my movie star mother and my rock star father.
At least, I couldn’t until Aubrey, Yvette and I formed Torched and went double platinum as we made a name for ourselves. Four years after taking the world by storm, I’m exhausted. We all are. I’m also ready to try and be a regular kid.
Only problem is I’ve never been normal. I don’t actually know what that feels like. Accepted into the prestigious Blue Ivy Prep, I have a lot to prove to the students, the faculty, our fans, but most of all to myself.
Despite my tabloid reputation or maybe because of it, I don’t intend for anything to get in my way. Especially not anyone who decided I’m an empty-headed pampered partying princess before I even showed up.
If they want a fight, I’ll bring them a war.
Orientation Week by Ruby Vincent
Breakbattle Academy is all about the competition. Being the best at any cost, and stepping on those in your way.
What am I all about? Derek Grayson.
I have to get to him. See him. Meet him. Know him. The problem is the sinfully gorgeous, rich son of a movie star is off-limits, especially in Breakbattle Academy’s all-boys’ campus.
I have no choice but to bind my chest, don a boy’s uniform, and change my name from Zela to Zeke. I have no choice but to brave the bullies each more wealthy, devious, and handsome than the one who tortured me last.
I also don’t have a choice in falling for Cole, Michael, and Landon—the most wealthy, handsome, and devious of them all.
Breakbattle Academy might be the worst four years of my life, but they won’t be a failure.
I will break through Cole’s walls, earn Landon’s trust, twist Michael around my finger, and make Derek mine.
All I have to do is survive orientation week.
Resurrection by Siobhan Davis
Everything changed the night my dad died. The night I met Saint, Galen, Caz, and Theo.
Those manipulative a-holes set out to ruin me after our hot night together, but they didn’t realize you can’t destroy something that’s already broken. And it only works if the victim cares.
Which I don’t. Because I’ve been in hell for years, and nothing penetrates the steel walls I’ve erected.
Until The Sainthood decides I belong to them and cracks appear in my veneer. Their cruel games, harsh words, and rough touch awakens something inside me, and now, I’m in trouble.
They draw me deeper into their dangerous world, until I’m in the middle of all the violence and gang warfare, tangled up in all the secrets and lies, and there’s no turning back.
Because they own me. And nothing has ever felt so right. I’m exactly where I should be.
But with enemies on all sides, survival becomes a deadly game with no guarantees.
And, sometimes, saints become sinners.
Game On by E.M. Moore
I knew I'd ruffle feathers, but the day I walked into Rockport High, I had no idea the cheap shots that were to follow.
You see, the Ballers and I have a history. They play basketball. I play basketball.
But they hate that I play basketball as good as them.
And the only thing they hate more than that, is me. That's right. I'm a girl, and I. Can. Play. Make no mistake about it.
The Ballers can do their worst, but I will earn a spot on the RHS boys' team.
This is my last resort to make a name for myself, and I can't let them interfere - even if the so-called kings of the school have declared war against me.
Crooked Crows by Elena Lawson
Unapologetically f*cked up. Heartlessly cruel. Broken beyond repair.
Corvus, Rook, and Grey – The Crows.
Bred in a world of gang wars, violence, and secrets, they rule the bloody town of Thorn Valley and all the people in it…too bad for me I’ve never been good at kissing ass or keeping quiet.
Even if their savage spirits awaken something inside of me I thought was long dead, I can’t break. I won’t.
They think they scare me, that I’ll run and hide, but the joke’s on them. The Crows aren’t the first monsters I’ve faced, and they won’t be the last.
There are worse evils out there waiting to take their stab at Ava Jade Mason.
I say let them try. I’m tired of running. Tired of holding back my darkness. Thorn Valley isn’t ready for a new boogie man.
Too bad I’m already here.
Trying to Live With the Dead by B.L. Brunnemer
Hi, I’m Alexis Delaney. I’m your average 17-year-old girl. Except I can see the dead. And talk to the dead. And push them away and, well, help them move on. So..okay, I’m not your average 17-year-old girl.
For years I’ve been struggling to survive the souls still roaming around. The shitheads always seem to find me. Moving from town to town every few months never helped either. More dead just always find me.
But things are changing for me now. I’m moving in with my uncle Rory and cousin Tara. I’m finally going to be able to do normal teenage stuff I’ve been missing out on. Right?
Well, if this one bitch of a ghost could leave me alone on campus that would be great. Especially since I haven’t told my new friends about my abilities. Can you believe this? Five good looking guys practically adopt me on my first day of school, and I still think they’re a bit nuts for it.
Now if I can only just keep my life with the dead from mixing with my normal life, everything would be great. Yeah...I don’t see that happening either. But I’m going to give it a shot. Who knows? It might work.
Kings of Quarantine by Caroline Peckham
Cruel. Heartless. Quarantined. The ruthless boys of Everlake Prep never saw lockdown coming. But the virus isn’t their number one enemy. I am.
And as if being confined to a boarding school for the elite wasn’t bad enough, now I’m stuck in isolation with the boys who hate me most too. Saint, Kyan and Blake. The Night Keepers. Or so they call themselves. They’ve embodied the Native American legend which lives in this valley, taking on the role of the monsters who lurk in the forest. And though they act like beasts, they may also be the most tempting creatures I’ve ever seen.
With the virus escalating and my dad’s name splashed through the news, my entire world is falling apart. What he did has cast a dark shadow over me. And the Night Keepers want to make me pay for his crimes.
Then things went from bad to worse when I touched the sacred rock. A rock which supposedly holds a curse to bind me as the Night Keepers’ slave. And as crazy as it sounds, I decided to play along. Because there are things about me they don’t know. Things my dad has hidden from me for years. All I can be sure of is that I have to find a way to escape this school. But until then, those savage boys are making my life a living hell.
As the virus sweeps through the country and the world twists into something ugly and unknown, the kings of this school become true monarchs. Even the teachers bow to them now. And I’m kinda glad about that ‘stay six feet away from one another’ rule, because without it, I know they’d rip me apart.
At least there’s a silver lining. I’m cosying up to Coach Monroe. My hot as hell, brooding P.E. teacher who has a vendetta of his own against the Night Keepers. And with his help, I may succeed at doing more than escaping the clutches of these heartless fiends. I might even destroy them along the way.
My father taught me how to be strong. How to prepare for the end of the world. So this isn’t going to be the end of my world, mark my words.
But if I’m able to use my mind and body to bring these assholes to their knees, it might just be the end of theirs.
Spark of Fate by Tessa Hale
It was supposed to be a fresh start. A completely blank slate in a place where no one knew about the tragedy that ripped her family apart six months ago. A tragedy Rowan can’t help but blame herself for.
Now the only thing she wants is to blend in. To escape the house that has become more like a prison. Her new school is her only hope. Somewhere she can pretend she’s just like everyone else.
Only Rowan doesn’t realize how unique she is. Holden is the first to recognize it, but he’s not the last.
Rowan can’t explain the draw she feels to the guys who have found their way into her life. The way something seems to spark the first moment she touches each of them. How it almost hurts to walk away from them at the end of each day.
Things are changing, from the ripple of power humming just below her skin to this new family she’s finding herself a part of. But not all of the changes are good.
Someone doesn’t like the power Rowan is stepping into or the bonds she’s forming with the guys who have gifts as rare and strong as her own. And when the truth is revealed, it has the power to burn everything in its wake…
Home by Nikita Parmenter
They were my entire world, then everything fell apart. I didn't get to say goodbye; I didn't get to explain to them that my dad had finally gone off the deep end.
Of course, they wouldn't have understood anyway; we were only eight, and I never told them how bad it had gotten. Maybe if I had, I wouldn't be in this fucked up situation.
I wouldn't have seen and done the things I've had to do in order to survive, and maybe I would've even been able to stay with the boys I loved. Well, the joke is on me; life's thrown me yet another freaking curve ball and I'm going back.
I'm going home, but they're not boys anymore, and although they've still got the traits of the boys I once loved, I don't know them like I used to.
They sure as hell aren't going to remember me. I had to change a lot in order to protect myself and to survive. I'm so far away from who I used to be I'd be surprised if they even recognized me. I sure as hell don't.
I'm going to lose them all over again, and I barely survived losing them the first time.

Silent Desires by Shona Knight
For the past 11 years, Mina has remained silent for fear of her mother’s constant abuse.
But when she’s suddenly let out of the locked basement to attend high school, a whole new set of fears threatens to suffocate her.
Stepping into the outside world is terrifying. The fear of speaking, of having a panic attack, of standing out in any way, looms over her.
Yet, the unexpected kindness of certain male students and teachers leaves her confused and wary and wishing she could speak.
Why are they constantly by her side? What happens when they find out she’s not 17, but 21?
And why was she feeling desire for the first time in her life, and not to just one person, but 7?
The Pact by Belle Harper
When we were ten, we made a pact. When we were twelve, I left. Now I'm back... and they hate me for it.
Before I left Ridgecrest, I kissed all three of my best friends. Jace, Hunter, and Roman. Each one thinks he was my first kiss. None of them know about the others.
Four years later, I'm back with nothing but a suitcase and the secret that made me leave in the first place. The boys I left behind aren't boys anymore. They're football stars who rule Ridgecrest High, and they've spent four years convincing themselves they don't need me.
Jace won't look at me without a sneer. Roman won't look at me at all. And Hunter... sweet, steady Hunter still looks at me like I'm the thing that broke him.
They think they know why I left. They don't. They think they can push me out of Ridgecrest. They can't.
But surviving the three boys I left behind might be the easy part. Because now there's a fourth. My new stepbrother. The one person I should never want. The one person I can't stop wanting.
They think I'll choose. I won't.

Dirty Little Secrets by K.G. Reuss

Now, there’s no escape.
With me in the crosshairs in a war between Kings and Lords at Bolten, will I be another victim or will the Kings spare me on the condition I belong to them?

Maybe I’m meant to be queen. Maybe… I’m meant to rule.
Dynasty by Sheridan Anne
Intimidating. Fearless. Destructive.
They’re everything a girl shouldn’t want. Too bad this foster girl never had a daddy to chase away the monsters because I’m a sucker for a bad boy … or four.
Carver, King, Cruz, and Grayson—the Kings of Ravenwood Heights.
When I was forced to come here, I was expecting just another run-down town to add to the ever-growing list of unwanted homes.
What I wasn’t expecting was them.
They’re dangerous and they're keeping a secret—a secret that's going to change it all.
Traitor by Hattie Jude
I've lost my family, my wealth, and the place I called home for the past five years.
Now I’ve moved back to where it all began…
With the guys I thought I’d never see again. Abel, Ronan, Wells, and Bishop were my friends at one time.
The only girl they would let into their inner circle.
Now they hate me. They think I’m a traitor. And I don’t know why.
But I am bound and determined to find out.
The problem is, there is a super fine line between hate and lust.
What happens when we all cross it?
The Help by Callie Rose
Rich boys don’t fraternize with the help. They don't torture the help. They don't crave the help.
For as long as I can remember, my mom and I have lived on the edge of ruin, so when she finally gets a decent job offer, she moves us cross-country to take it.
Who cares if it means working as a live-in housekeeper for a man wealthier than God? The paycheck is good, and it comes with a roof over our heads.
She even manages to get me enrolled in the fancy prep academy his son goes to—the kind that spits out future CEOs and politicians like a vending machine.
But this new town has a few things my old one didn’t…
Like secrets that could get a person killed, and four of the hottest, meanest guys I’ve ever met. I might live in their world now, but I am not a part of it, and they’ll do whatever it takes to remind me of that.
We go to school together, live together, and share a dangerous secret, but as far as Lincoln, River, Dax, and Chase are concerned…
I’m just the help.
Charcoal Tears by Jane Washington
Seraph Black used to think that she was prepared for anything. She could last days without eating and she always walked away from the violent altercations with her father relatively unharmed.
She survived working at the club and the drive to school every day in her mother’s rust-bucket of a car… but it all changed when Noah and Cabe came bulldozing into her life, careless of the precious secrets they picked apart in their quest to take over her world.
She was even less prepared for the mysterious Miro and Silas, and nothing could have prepared her for the bond. The connection. The reason for it all.
Someone wanted her to stay away from her new friends, but she wasn’t willing to do that.
Everyone had secrets. She wanted to know theirs. They wanted to own hers.
And the stalker? He seemed to know everything already.
Lost Boys by Eva Ashwood
"You're in our world now, Princess. You're ours."
My whole life, I’ve been groomed as American royalty, raised to be the perfect daughter of the wealthy elite.
For one birthday, my father bought me an Aston Martin.
And on my next birthday, the Feds took everything away.
With my father in prison for fraud and nothing left to our name, my mom and I are forced to move to a tiny house across town, and I transfer to Slateview Public.
The only problem is, nearly everyone at my new school has reason to despise my family name. They want to see a princess brought low, and they’ll do whatever it takes to make me fall.
Money was the language of my old world, but violence is the language of my new one. The only way I’ll survive until graduation is to make a deal with three gorgeous, dangerous devils—the ones everyone calls the Lost Boys.
If I accept their bargain, Bishop, Misael, and Kace will protect me.
But they’ll own me too.
Pretty Lies by R.E. Bond
My dad had always been a scheming man, and his new rich girlfriend hadn’t seen him coming. He upended my life in Hawthorne Heights and dragged me to Ashburn Valley without much warning.My new home came with a fancy new academy education, and his girlfriend's entitled son.
Lucky me, right?
Caden and his friends were assholes, so I couldn’t let my guard down. Until I did and they made me feel like I belonged in their world after all. I never meant to fall for them, and I should’ve known better than to trust them. Never trust a rich boy, let alone four.
One good thing comes out of it though since it led me back to cage fighting. Beating on others wasn’t going to hurt my dad or Caden, but it was a start. It helped that one of the street crew members that ran the fights was hot and really good in bed. It was just a shame that his boss wanted me dead.
My name’s Rory Donovan, and I’d do anything to protect those I cared about. The blood on my hands and the dead body should’ve proven that.
A Piece of Heaven by Angel Lawson
No good deed goes unpunished. I learned that lesson the hard way when I agreed to help my friend Justin with a favor. My platonic friend Justin.
A favor that helped him with his reputation but turned mine into the trending topic at my school. In a matter of days, I go from quiet, nobody to school slut.
The problem with that? I’m still a virgin.
The whispers, the stares, and the constant gossip try to bring me down-they almost do bring me down but I’m tired of hiding in the dark, covering up my anxiety, and being alone. I decide to take on the bullies and find a few surprising allies along the way; the Allendale Four.
Oliver, Anderson, Jackson, and Hayden make up this tight-knit circle of friends and for some reason, they make it their mission to protect my reputation, my heart, and my soul.
That doesn't stop the haters from coming after me. For the rumors and harassment to end.
More than anything, I want the pain to stop.
