Colt 45...Happy Birthday, OMR.
It's your birthday, Old Man River, and since it's been a minute since I've seen you, I'm feeling super mushy--this is also evidenced by the way I've cried each time we've talked the past two weeks:) #sorryaboutthatIn our twelve plus years together, River, there are so many things I've learned about you, small discoveries like the fact that you have to eat the moment you're out of bed in the mor...

Lessons in Gravity
(Romance)

updated Mar 02, 2018 10:26AM
Description:
The higher the climb, the bigger the fall…
This is something Cameron Carson learned early on in life. It’s not enough to get to the top— people expect you to stay there. And when you don’t, the fall back to Earth is more than painful—it’s devastating.
Gunner Thornton took his first fall at fourteen when he locked eyes with Cameron in Spanish class. She was confident, and beautiful, and everything he’d ever dreamed of. Now, four years later when Gunner looks at CC, he sees beyond the girl on the ground in her cheer uniform and mini-skirts, to the girl he fell for when he was fourteen—the girl who pointed her body to the sky and flew, ignoring the rules of gravity that bound the rest of them.
It’s their senior year, and Gunner only has one more chance to convince CC that invincible girl still exists. And he’s all in.
A challenge is thrown: he’ll help her pass her classes and graduate, but she has to train to jump again. With him.
CC agrees, ready to do as little possible. But something about Gunner’s unending challenge—and belief—that she can be better, be more—makes CC want to fly…even as she’s falling.

Description:
Sloan Sawyer’s family began to dissolve the day her father died. Fifteen then, Sloan turned to her mother for comfort, and was turned away. Now, at eighteen, a senior in high school, Sloan is alone and playing the role of guardian for her fifteen-year-old younger sister, who appears to be hell bent on ruining her own life.
Along with trying to save her sister from herself, Sloan is working day and night to get into a prestigious art program, while working out twice a day to try and clinch a state title in swimming—the same state title that her mother won when she was Sloan’s age.
When an incident at school brings her into contact with the new kid, who also
happens to be the principal’s son, Sloan finds herself beginning one more relationship that she isn’t sure she knows how to handle.
Grady knows he can't handle a relationship...and still, he can't keep himself away from Sloan. Since that first day he's been drawn to her, and even though he knows their relationship can't go anywhere, he can't seem to stop himself from needing Sloan.
Yet, even with his feelings growing, Grady knows he can't share his past with her. He won't. So when Sloan confronts him about it, he has no choice but to leave her, even if that means leaving a part of himself with her.

Mia Evans comes from a family that doesn't do love. Her mother worries about her father, her father worries about their family name, and Mia worries about everyone else.

The last thing she expects is to fall for Ryan, but she does. And she falls hard.
Ryan has loved Mia since the day he saw her sitting on her front porch, crying into her knees. Now, he has her, but as they navigate the end of their high school career together, he doesn't know how he's going to keep her.

quote
One of the things I love about minor characters is that they are the catalysts for so much. Grey Thorntpn is that--she challsenges my main characters and mes them work she challenges me as a writer and reader to be honest.
“you love her like I think you do, push her, make her uncomfortable, and make her face her demons so she can fucking save herself.”

“Wow, Caitlin’s dating. Caitlin’s going to the movies with a boy, where it’s dark.” Max shook his head and patted me on the shoulder. “You know what they say, man. With boys, parents only worry about one penis, but with girls, they worry about them all.”
My lungs backed up and for a minute, my vision got hazy. Giving in, I bent at the waist and breathed air in nice and slow. Jesus Christ. “Thanks, Max, that’s really helpful.”

“I know you were mad and scared, and I guess I don’t blame you. But you were my dream, too, Mia, for a long time. I thought that if I had you, I could do anything. And then when I had you, I knew I had everything. It took you walking away to make me realize that a dream doesn’t change even if you can’t have it. It just waits.”

“There’s nothing wrong with following the rules, Mia,” I said at length. “I think what you might not realize is that not all consequences are bad, and sometimes breaking the rules is necessary. Not just because it can be fun,” I said with a grin, and pulled away to look at her. “But because you have to figure out who you are, and sometimes that means being someone different than who everyone else wants you to be.”
