Caution Tape

Forced into spending her Winter Break with the very man she’d been attempting to avoid, Rika enters into the unstable situation that is her history teacher and his family. Despite their close proximity however, they continue to drift further and further apart. Jason’s unease within his childhood home doesn’t go unnoticed by Rika however and in her attempts to understand him, she discovers more than she had ever anticipated. Enough, perhaps, to rip them apart completely.

Rika isn’t the only one hunting for clues about the Keinishi’s however. Her friends have begun noticing oddities about the family; about their attitudes, their finances, their abilities. Despite how some want to deny it, they’ve begun to accept that perhaps their teacher’s aren’t who they claim to be and in their attempts to uncover the truth, they trespass on territory where not only are they unwelcome, but where they place themselves on the verge of immanent peril as well.

The constraining air of the Keinishi house is suffocating, boated with secrets, and, trapped inside those stifling confines, it’s inevitable that the past begin to trespass on the present, the hidden starts to encroach upon the lies, and that which is probably better left unsaid is shouted for all to hear. To hear… and to judge.

21-year old Aubrey Quinn still lives under her mother's thumb -and has since her third grade teacher declared her a rising star. Her life hasn't been her own since those stolen moments back in high school that she spent with the love of her life, Jess Rivers. Unfortunately, once Jess graduated, he broke things off with her to pursue his baseball career.

Aubrey never really gets over Jess and years later, when she becomes a contestant on a reality entertainment show, she wins the opportunity to sing the National Anthem for the local baseball team. And Jess Rivers storms back into her life.

Now Aubrey is struggling to get out from under her mother's control, fighting for a relationship with Jess, and trying to remain a contender on the reality show.

Where to start is the big question for Chloe Baker. How was she supposed to explain to Zack Warren that she started a fan club for him when she was a kid? It was just a game. A way to make friends and have fun. She never thought it would spiral out of control. And never. In a million, gazillion years, did she think it would follow her to college. How could she tell him her best friend Lana kept the club alive? That she had nothing to do with the craziness?

Chloe didn’t understand why she cared so much about Zack's opinion of her. She hated him. He hated her. They had very mutual feelings of dislike for each other. So he'd just hate her even more when or if he found out.

And that's totally fine...she thinks.

Zack Warren had a soft spot for Chloe Baker. He likes the way she walks. He likes the way she talks. If he was poetically inclined, he’d write a sonnet about her ass.

It's Zack’s junior year of college. He’s got things to worry about. Scouts from the major leagues. Baseball games. Contracts. Grades.... His father ran away to Vegas with Chloe's mother. He didn’t have time to worry about a girl. But he did. He worried about Chloe a lot, especially with that jerk Max sniffing around her. It's weird though, to like your stepsister, right?

But Zack could argue that he saw Chloe first. Way before his dad met her mom. He was too young to stake a claim. But just didn’t care anymore.

He’s done playing games.

Sequel to All the Wrong Reasons.

But it's not looking promising even after she ends her on-again-off-again relationship with Spencer - especially since the man she's discovered she's in love with is Spencer's cousin and best friend, Collin.

It's okay, though, because she'll get over it. Well, that's what she was hoping but after one drunken night with Collin, she realizes that it's not that easy.

To make matters worse, she finds out that he's in love with Tori, Morgan's in love with him, and Spencer's in love with her. It's enough to make her head spin.

Irelyn Colby is excited to start a new life at college. Granted, her well-to-do grandparents are footing the bill, but that's a sacrifice she's willing to make for the sake of a good education.

Although the house she lives in with her mother and special needs cousin is just minutes away from campus, her grandfather insists that she stay in the dorms in order to have the 'total college experience.' Irelyn complies, going home on the weekends to spend time with her family and Dustin, her high school sweetheart.

When her new roommates, Bailey and Morgan, share their wild, weekend adventures, Irelyn gets a little jealous. How she longs to break free of the 'good girl, good student' mold and have a little fun. Besides, she'd love to have a funny tale to share with Dustin when she meets him for dinner at her grandparents' country club on Saturday night.

But things don't go as planned. The girls take her to a popular bar where a local band plays on Friday nights and Irelyn is captivated by the lead singer, Lucas. She meets him after his set and the sparks fly. Unable to control herself, she spends the night with him only to suffer a huge bout of guilt the next morning. What will she tell Dustin?

Bailey convinces Irelyn that it was a fluke - nothing Dustin needs to know about. Morgan urges her to stay away from Lucas. Irelyn agrees, vowing to stay away from Lucas once she retrieves the cell phone she lost that Friday night when she was with him.

Unfortunately, Irelyn's plans don't work out very well as she can't seem to stay away from him. She continues to see Lucas, all the while lying to Dustin, and hiding the entire situation from her controlling grandfather.

As the lies continue to stack up, topped by confusing feelings, Irelyn must make a decision: Does she stay with Dustin, the sweet, safe boy with a promising future? Or does she follow her heart and run to Lucas, the one who makes her feel real?

And what will her grandfather have to say about her choice?

When green reporter Taylor Lockwood finally gets a real story, her excitement is short-lived. She's supposed to interview Brady Nolan, a local boy who made it to the big leagues. Unfortunately for Taylor, she has a history with Brady.

Brady had been the big man on campus back at high school - leaving a trail of broken hearts behind him. But he'd seemed different with Taylor - more attentive and loving. They'd managed to stay together longer most of the school year - even attending Senior Prom. But all of that ended the day after Prom when her best friend informed her that she had been part of a bet that Brady had made with his friend, Jason.

It took Taylor years to get over it - but she'd managed. Now, however, Brady Nolan is thrust back into her life, and although she's determined to put him and the entire high school incident behind her - he's determined to never let her go again.
