    Saying that Max Oran is a disaster would be an understatement: he got himself kicked out of school, his dad has sent him to live with his emotionally distant mother and his friends don't want anything to do with him. When Max starts at his new school, he meets Cole Benson and his turbulent but loyal friends. As Max develops new bonds and begins to fall for Cole, he realizes that, despite everything, he might have stumbled into something beautiful. Eager to embrace the second chance that life has given him, Max begins counseling and, with the help of Cole and his newfound friends, tries to move forward. However, he quickly realizes that there are more bumps ahead than he was prepared for and is forced to decide if he's going to push past his problems or let his mistakes hold him back forever.

    My family has a curse dating back generations. A curse on the oldest daughter of each generation that could result in her death if she doesn't make the right choices. I have two mates, and while it's not certain that one might try to kill me, it's happened before. There have been eight older daughters before me, three of them died due to the choices they made, three got their happy ending, and the other two, well, I guess you could say they got lucky. At the age of six, there was an attempt on my life, all apart of the curse, of course, because the curse makes me special, it makes me the strongest wolf possible. The curse doesn't take effect until I turn sixteen, so why not try to kidnap a child so that you can kill her the second the curse activates itself? Tomorrow, my life changes. Tomorrow I turn sixteen, and the curse activates. Tomorrow I might have two mates to choose from. Tomorrow I could make the wrong choice and ruin everything. Tomorrow I could make a choice that will get me killed.

    Anna is thirteen years old and already holding more than most adults ever will. In a small town, in a house that never quite warms up, Anna moves through her days quietly, waking her sisters, stretching meals, smoothing the sharp edges of a life shaped by poverty and fatigue. Her mother works. Her sisters depend on her. At school, she is helpful, invisible, careful. No one asks how much she carries, or what happens when the weight slips. Anna is a novel about eldest daughters, and the quiet cost of being the one who never breaks.

    This book is a collection of poems about growing up, family, love, pain, and the questions that never seem to have answers. Some poems talk about childhood and the pressure of being the oldest daughter. Some talk about bullying, self-doubt, and struggles that people don't always see. Others explore love, heartbreak, and the constant battle between the heart and the mind. And some are simply late-night thoughts about life, existence, and the unknown. These poems aren't perfect, but they're honest. They are pieces of my thoughts, my memories, and the feelings that are sometimes hard to say out loud. If you've ever felt like you didn't fit in, asked too many questions about life, or carried emotions you didn't know how to explain, maybe you'll find a piece of yourself in these pages.

      Parts 1
    Some love stories begin with a confession. This one begins with attendance. When thirteen-year-old Adhiraj Talwalkar walks into a new school in Mumbai, he's determined to keep things simple. Study hard, stay out of trouble, and survive being the "new kid" without doing anything embarrassing. Then he hears a name during roll call. Adhira Joshi. The class topper. Sharp, confident, and just a little too comfortable challenging teachers, teasing classmates, and solving math problems faster than anyone else in the room. They're not friends. They barely talk. But somewhere between shared classrooms, silent academic rivalries, and the strange awareness of each other across benches, a quiet spark begins to form. And before anything can happen- School ends. Life moves forward. Years pass. Different colleges. Different lives. Different versions of themselves. Until one unexpected day in the second year of college, Adhiraj finds himself face-to-face with Adhira again. Older. More complicated. And carrying memories neither of them ever really forgot. What began as a tiny spark in a school classroom now has a chance to become something more... if they can figure out what it meant in the first place. The Rom-Com Girl & Sit-Com Guy is not a grand love story about destiny and dramatic gestures. It's a simple, warm, painfully relatable one - about school corridors, unfinished moments, years that pass too quickly, and the strange way life brings people back into each other's stories when they least expect it. Because sometimes love doesn't begin with a dramatic moment. Sometimes it begins with something as ordinary as- "Present, Ma'am."

    The First Choice Zafirah Abdullahi has never had trouble finding her place in a room. Charismatic, bold, and impossibly herself, she moves through life the way she moves through a crowd - effortlessly, and always at the center of it. At Air Force Comprehensive School, she is known by everyone and loved by most, and that has always been enough. Final year was supposed to be simple. Study, survive exams, attend prom, go home. It is not simple. There is Ajmal - calm, patient, and quietly certain about her in a way that is both flattering and terrifying. There is Jawad - her cousin, her person, her most complicated relationship, whose feelings neither of them have found the courage to examine too closely. And then there is someone else entirely. Someone who doesn't fit neatly into any category she has, who looks at her without softening what he sees, and whose indifference bothers her far more than it should. Three people. Three different kinds of attention she wasn't looking for. And Zafirah, who has always known exactly who she is, slowly discovering that knowing yourself and understanding yourself are not the same thing at all. Some choices are easy. The first one never is.
