Everyone at school knows Andrew Jennings. Missing an arm. Openly gay. But when he meets star athlete Ryan Sullivan in therapy, can friendship lead to more? ***** When Andrew 'Jacky' Jennings ends up in therapy after an English assignment gone wrong, he doesn't expect to find his high school's star athlete, Ryan Sullivan, sitting in the same waiting room. After all, he and Ryan couldn't be more different: football captain, future valedictorian, and all-around nice guy, Ryan is the school's golden boy, while Andrew is known for his permanent snarl, being openly gay, and losing his left arm (along with his father and sister) in a car accident. But when Andrew learns they actually have a lot in common, he's surprised to see past the enigma that is Ryan Sullivan and his seemingly perfect life. And as the two boys begin to connect over their shared grief, depression, and teenage angst, they might just discover a little pocket of happiness for themselves -- if they're willing to fight for it.

Fake dating was supposed to be simple, temporary... just on paper. ────୨ৎ──── Aria never planned on pretending to be in love-especially not with Christian Fell. He's sarcastic, emotionally closed-off, and way too good at pretending he doesn't care. She's cautious, soft-hearted, and already carrying enough feelings she refuses to unpack. The deal was clear: - Two months. - Public affection. - No real feelings. Easy, right? Except rumors spread faster than truth, exes don't stay in the past, and lines blur when fake kisses start feeling a little too real. When Aria finds herself caught between friendships breaking, secrets unraveling, and a contract that's about to expire, she has to face the one thing she's been avoiding. What happens when pretending isn't pretending anymore? Dating on Paper is a slow-burn, high school romance filled with messy emotions, fake dating gone wrong, jealousy, parties that end badly, and two people who keep lying to themselves for way too long. Because some love stories start with feelings. And some start with a signature.

The wrong kind of lesson. Raven is just a normal teenage girl. Okay, maybe not so normal. Let's say she's your average 18-year-old... with a slight obsession with her classmate Carter. And by slight, we mean staring at his pictures for over an hour a day - without ever having the courage to comment on them, let alone actually talk to him. When it finally seems like she might have a real chance with him - a shot at an actual relationship - there's only one tiny problem: her total lack of experience with guys. She's 18 and has never had a boyfriend. Don't even mention kissing. That's when the school's bad boy makes her an offer she never saw coming: sex lessons. Can she keep her heart from falling for him in the process? This isn't your typical bad boy cliché. And yes - we actually like Carter, lol. Prepare yourself for drama, chaos, emotional rollercoasters, and plenty of moments that will make you laugh, cry, and scream.
