AURORA YEO
BAD GIRLS
BAD GIRLS was first published on Wattpad in the year 2015, nearly 2 whole years before its official publication. It defied every rule of what a teen fiction tale should be, yet played beautifully well with the traditional plots and character. It was a story nearly ironic; a perfectly cliche non-cliche.
On Wattpad, BAD GIRLS raked up a total of 9 million over views since it was first uploaded and had obtained ranks as high as #3 in the teen fiction category and appeared multiple times on the WHAT'S HOT list. Since then, it had changed many different views on the typical 'mean girls' in any cliche teen fiction story and showed that villains weren't always this way.
In 2017, Bad Girls was offered a publishing deal by BLVNP and is now available in both Ebook and Paperback format.

BAD GIRLS: BONUS CHAPTERS
CHARLOTTE'S TALE
Charlotte's life before her big reveal at Avery's party was not a very lively one. The very second in which she had stepped into that party, however, her life would be changed forever.
WESLEY'S REVENGE
Wesley Jerald is not a stranger to the prison life. So when he returns to his hometown in California and lands himself behind bars after beating someone in the first party he attends, he is not fazed at all.
However, unlike the other times he had found himself in jail, Wesley is worried, not for his safety but for his childhood best friend, Avery Chase. Will she be disappointed to find that after all the years they spent apart, Wesley had turned into a troublemaker?
FUNFAIR PHOTOGRAPHY
When they were younger, before the world of high school politics and heartbreak had ripped them apart, Avery and Blake used to be the best of friends. One of Blake's fondest memories of Avery was that one day in which they had spent at the school funfair, forever immortalized as a single photograph.
JUST GIRLS
The Other Books In The Series
LOST GIRLS
Evangeline Macbeth doesn't believe in love anymore.
The last time she did, she fell for her best friend just like any other cliche love story, but it didn't turn out well at all. In the end, all she got back was heartbreak and rivers of tears.
The last time she did, she was a naive 16-year-old girl who broke her heart because he cheated on her so openly.
Two years later, 19-year-old Evangeline found herself back into a sticky situation. After running away from home for almost a year, she bumped into a familiar face in the dingy streets of Florida. Surprised to see him again, Evangeline swore to make his life miserable in any way she can.
After all, it was only because of him did she break in the first place. Had he not cheated on her, she wouldn't have run away. Had she not run away, her parents wouldn't be out looking for her during that stormy night. Had they been at home, they wouldn't have died in that car crash.
It all began because of him, and it ended with Evangeline being lost.
She lost herself to the world of remorse and anger.
But sometimes, you've got to lose yourself first before you can find yourself again.
PRETTY GIRLS
Society screwed everything up, didn't it?
We live in a world in which one gets attention on either one of two golden conditions:
1. You're dead.
2. You're attractive.
It's the sad fact; it's the truth. If you're not beautiful, you're a nobody. Until that day, I wasn't what society would deem as beautiful. No, I wasn't overweight. No, I didn't have a uni-brow. In fact, no, I wasn't ugly.
I was something much much worse. I was normal. There was no part of me that stood out. I was an ordinary girl living among the shadows of the hot and gorgeous. It wasn't until that one day in which the new transfer student arrived had my life changed. If he hadn't noticed me, I would still be normal.
But he did.
He taught me how to be pretty.
Just because he thought I was beautiful.
SPIN-OFFS
The Just Girls universe did not just end with Bad Girls. That was just the beginning.
From prequels to spin-offs, the Just Girls universe was started with the completion of Bad Girls. Here are some of my personal favorite quotes from the stories that were created via this extension.
INTERTWINED
"Why is it you love every color? Every shade, every hue. Why?"
"Is there really a reason for liking something? But I assume it is because I've grown up taught to appreciate everything in life. Even though they don't appreciate me back, and even though they take it further and end up hurting me, they're essentially always there. I can depend on them to always be there. Like how the sun rises each morning, and gets engulfed by the horizon every evening; like how the stars will still sparkle even when they are covered by dark storm clouds; like how the green of the forest will always remain that shade of gorgeous emerald if we care enough to nurture. Maybe that's why I love every color. That's why I love everything life has ever thrown my way, for every shade, for every hue, the colors of life brighten my very being, and it's only because of this, life is worth living."
NEFARIOUS
(Adj.) Wicked, villainous, despicable.
She gave off a laughter ever so angelic, in which her eyes, however, gleamed with the mischief that could endanger humanity. She became then, a walking contradiction; a face of an angel and a heart of a devil.
"Oh, Caleb." Her voice taunted, a flirtatious edge towards it as she neared the poor boy, pulling him in by his tie as her face became inches to his very own. "You never learn, do you? I can never be good, especially when being bad feels so good."
