I walked into Tessa’s house… I’m sorry, mansion, in sweatpants and a bleach-stained Kid Rock tee; the grease clinging to every strand of my honey-brown hair didn’t matter because I’d be wearing a wig. I wondered how many of the girls were doing the same – I mean only half of them are naturally blonde,…
“My name’s Stella,” I told him, trying my best to answer as if I were talking to a substitute teacher – not rude… just, blase. I assumed girls pursued him regularly wherever he went because that’s what happens to anyone that’s made a name for themselves, isn’t it? We build a fascination with this beautiful…
The dark smoke engulfed my lungs and forced a film over my strong blue eyes which sat behind a pair of classic silver aviators.

As the sun started to peak its way out from behind the mountain and through the square window, I heard Sierra’s body shift against the fibers of the brown couch. This was the eighth morning we were waking up like this and although I missed my soft touch memory foam mattress and thick comforter, I…
Listen to the Audio Version Instead: “S – Speed!” Remi shouted. It must’ve been the hundredth speed limit sign they’d passed. The Hendrickson’s were racing to wrap up the alphabet game as they held a steady 68 on their way to the well furnished AirBnB in Venice Beach. Their dad never went more than three…
Sadie sat in silence and closed her eyes in an effort to stop the world from spinning. She could picture Amy’s forehead plunked down into her sweaty palms. She lived in Florida… it’s not as if she could jump in her Range Rover and speed on over to the Texas hospital where their dad was…
