Summary
It's like something out of a bad teen movie: the popular cheerleader and the nerdy social outcast paired together for an irrelevant biology project that will probably have zero impact on their final grade. It somehow manages to get even more clichéd when Clarke realizes she might be crushing on the aforementioned nerdy (incredibly cute) social outcast.

Summary
Seven year old Alexandria Forest follows her dad out one stormy night and discovers that he’s been keeping a young woman captive. She helps her to safety and notifies the police of what she’s seen. That morning they arrest Titus Forest who they later identify as a man who’s responsible for over thirty murders. All young females, all in the same gruesome and inhuman way. Alexandria and her remaining family are taken in by their estranged Uncle’s, get new identities and tries to forget about the horror that happened that summer night.
Nearly twenty years later firefighter Lieutenant Lexa Woods returns to her hometown. She buys a house with the intention of rebuilding it, just as she intendeds to do with her life. On her first day back she runs into Clarke Griffin, and she’s swept off of her feet in an instant. Just when she starts to believe that maybe she has a chance at a normal life, she's thrown into yet another nightmare. After all of the crap the universe had thrown at her, she really should have known better than to relax all of the safety measures.
A story based on “The Obsession” by Nora Roberts. I own nothing but the writing.

Summary
Clarke Griffin has a pretty good life; parents that love and accept her, a group of friends that would do anything for each other, and she is captain of the two-time defending champions of the competitive hockey league in DC - the Arkers. She thought she was happy, she thought she had it all, then she met Lexa Woods, the new captain of the Grounders, a team out to upset the Arkers and take away their title and Clarke's world shifted. Feelings she thought were real, are suddenly cast in doubt and Clarke is confused about why this particular woman is having such an affect on her. Clarke tries to navigate the intensity of her emotions and Lexa is guarded but inexplicably drawn to the blonde. Will Lexa open up, can they find their way to each other?

Summary
"She thinks—knows—there are many more moments to come, moments of clarity, moments when she catches herself falling for Lexa again, deeper, further. She doesn’t think she’ll ever regret these moments, so subtle, so hidden, so hers. Even if Lexa isn’t. Because, this—whatever this is—won’t last, she realizes. It can’t last. Not when she’s falling more and more in love with someone who still belongs to someone else."

AU; A story of relationships that begin as often as they end, of healing through wedding cake samples and bland cereal, and the development of a relationship no one expects
