An ex-couples rivalry for the spot as student body president becomes even more convoluted when two new, unexpected candidates enter the race. Chloe and Preston team up, each vowing to get one member kicked from the competition-- but when they both end up helping their victims to spite each other, the campaign gets a lot more complicated.

* * * * * 

Chloe Peters is determined to solidify her most-popular-girl-in-school status with the label of student body president, so she's furious when three other candidates enter the race. Now, she's competing against her ex-boyfriend Preston McMillan, some nobody named Emily, and the school's notorious troublemaker, Finn Harrel. If it means saving her pride and not letting Preston get the best of her, she'd do just about anything-- even help out Finn, who despite his good looks, gets on her last nerve with his lackadaisical attitude and class-clown antics.

Preston McMillan just wants a distraction from the fact that his wrestling team is about to be disbanded. When he signs up for the presidential race, he doesn't expect Chloe to go berserk, nor does he expect to meet Emily, a quiet, stony girl he can't believe he's never noticed before. After deciding to help with her campaign, he's got plenty of distractions-- enough to make him wonder what really matters, and enough to make his friends question where his loyalties lie.

One thing's for sure: suddenly, this race is about a lot more than student government.

Swearing Off Boys by AshleyMarWrites

Katie Becker is tired of being second choice. She's tired of her friends choosing her last, she's tired of her teachers not giving her the credit she deserves, but most of all she is tired of boys never liking her back. Upon the discovery that her most current crush is crushing on someone else, Katie is distraught. And so is her best friend Rachel. After a party where they destroy her (former) crush's car, Rachel and Kate are forced to work to pay off the damaged. Kate and Rachel make a bet, if Kate can actually swear off boys, Rachel will pay her back for the time she spends working to pay off the damages. If Kate falls into the same patter, Rachel doesn't have to pay her back. Thinking the bet will be easy, Kate hastily agrees. Unfortunately, the boy Rachel chooses for her to not fall in love with in the perfect, and rebellious, Matt Abbott. Kate soon comes to discover that you can't always control how you feel, and maybe you have to fall for someone, not just pick them and then decide to fall for them. Love isn't just something you can decide. And maybe love is so much more than what she used to think. *This is the reworked and re-edited version of this story originally uploaded in 2015. Details have been changed, so I recommend rereading if anyone (for a wonder from all those years ago) plans to keep reading.

Fake Dates and Other Mistakes by alihartwriteratlarge

Elysa Degras' junior year has been off to a rocky start. Soccer practices have been kicking her butt, her advanced math class has been really kicking her butt, and her history teacher just blackmailed her into joining the school's (ultra nerdy) Quiz Bowl team. And if all of that wasn't bad enough, her recent attraction to her best friend has also been complicating her life. Especially since she went and lied about it, blurting some preposterous nonsense about a boyfriend to try and explain all her recent weird behavior. To try and salvage the situation, she enlisted the help of one of her brother's friends, but there's something more than a little suspicious about Luke Haywood, and it's not just his unnerving ability to act like a real boyfriend. She's almost positive he's hiding something, and with everything else spiraling dangerously out of control, she can't afford to leave his secret alone.

The It Girl [COMPLETED] by joymoment

"This book is the perfect mixture of deep and hilarious. I'm in love with that" - crackhead4ever Teen fiction has given cheerleaders a bad rap. And stereotypical appearances. Courtney knows this. She is a cheerleader. Is she a pretty blonde with blue eyes? Well, yes. Is she popular and perky? ...okay. Yes, again. Is she stuck up and cruel to others for no reason? Ha! There! No to that one. In fact, she's worked for years to portray the perfect image of an upbeat, easy going person. An image that gets harder to hold on to when: The new girl takes an instant dislike to her. Her best friend decides to run against her for Senior Class President. Her football team captain boyfriend breaks up with her. And, oh yeah, she humiliates herself in front of the whole school. Yup, that perfect image is falling apart. "I love how this book is different from other teen fiction books It's like a breath of fresh air from the same old tropes😄 💕" - LaraAmethyst "I loooove this book so much already aghhh" - therealbhavie "I'm hooked- I- I think that's all im gonna say before I run to read the next chapter" - grumpymood "So excited for the next chapter! Characters are complex and unique, the plot continuously thickens, and I'm already waiting to see what happens next. I can't wait!" - Rspicy #1 in TeenLife #2 in TeenLove #5 in TeenFiction
