𝓘𝓼𝓪𝓫𝓮𝓵𝓵𝓪 ♥︎ Not many things have managed to catch me off guard in this life after enduring years of trauma. But Kayden did. He came out of the blue, so sudden, the whiplash is practically everlasting. I've always prided myself in having my shit together and priorities straight- and I did. Until life decided to throw me curveball in the form of a perfectly handsome, charming and oh so out of my league man. I don't even understand why. I was doing just fine without him, in law school at twenty-two, focus set on my studies of becoming a successful lawyer and following in my grandparents' footsteps, surrounded by the most amazing group of friends. But it doesn't matter. When Kayden Dominguez sets his mind and heart to something- he will get it. And my façade might not be strong enough to stop him. 𝓚𝓪𝔂𝓭𝓮𝓷 ♡︎ Despite what the tabloids might say about me, I'm not ignorant or stupid. I know I am that guy your parents would warn you about growing up, maybe still to this day. I am the son of Alejandro- and Alexia Dominguez. Owners of the biggest label company in Southern California. Maybe even the entire state. That itself will have people build and paint your persona to what they think you entail. Good thing I don't give a single shit about that whole puppet show called the media. I'd even go as far as to admit I go through my days feeling superfluous. I lived a pretty hollow life. I don't know how or why that changed the second I met her. It was like something clicked. Had you told me this would happen the day before, I would've probably punched you out cold. But like I said, she waltzed into my life and...I haven't been the same since. I just know I want Isabella Khalil, the ultimate woman of my dreams, to be mine. But how exactly do you pursue the only woman you've ever truly wanted, who also happens to be the only person ever to refuse tumbling for your charms?

Emerson Rose is many things. She's a faithful girlfriend to her possessive boyfriend, Brody. She's an obedient daughter to her considerably controlling mother. She's a reluctant finance major in her second year of college. She's a determined wanna-be writer in her free time. And she's a loving dog mom to her eleven year old German Shepard. What she is not, however, is bold or impulsive. So when she is somehow able to stop an alley fight in the dark of night and save a handsome stranger from a gruesome beating, it's not exactly a normal occurrence. Emerson expects this to be an isolated incident. She doesn't plan on ever seeing this stranger again and she's even able to forget the whole thing ever happened. But fate seems to be pushing the two together and Emerson finds herself intrigued by this guy. His cavalier attitude, his flirtatious banter, his admittedly attractive face. Somehow, a new friendship is sparked, despite the two being so drastically different. Their friendship is innocent enough. Or so she thinks. What happens when the line between friendship and relationship starts to blur? Emerson's life is dramatically changing, all because of this guy. This charming, arrogant, funny, seemingly perfect stranger. You can call him Ghost. . . . . TW; mental and physical abuse Word Count; 130,000-140,000 Started; Feb. 23, 2021 Finished; Feb. 7, 2022

Fleck was never going to be the gorgeous, tall blonde that everyone wanted to date. It was her lot in life to be a little over 5 feet tall and curvy, almost to the extreme. Most days that didn't bother her, in her 25 years she had become comfortable with her body and knowing herself. She didn't lack for friends, even if they weren't attracted to her they were certainly attracted to her father's money and connections. Took a few mistakes to figure out how to read those that were actual true friends and those that were like "crabs in a bucket" and were cut off fast. Of course what was before Grayden came into the picture. He was new to the city and her father's company as a security consultant, her father had told her it was just routine but when he assigned Grayden as her own personal bodyguard she starts to wonder if there is something more going on. Grayden has warned her he is strictly there to do a job so the attraction she feels for him, she should ignore. Of course he didn't feel it back, the ones that she wanted never did, or did he... as he watches her a little to closely, holds her a little more tightly than he needs to as he protects her from harm.
