Aurora Harris is nothing like the Disney Princess she was named after, but that doesn't mean he isn't still willing to be her Prince Charming. * * * She's a little rough around the edges, can be seen as harsh, never too emotional, and certainly independent. But these are all things she needs if she's going to be the cut-throat lawyer that she's always wanted to be. Those that know her can see she still has a heart, despite what some people-college frat boys to be specific-might say about her. Wyatt Muse is one of the few who really know her. Being her brother's oldest friend, they practically grew up together under the glowing California sun. His story is what some might call tragic, an orphan boy raised by his grandparents in Hollywood. Only his family is wealthy, something which buys him little empathy from all who know him. Aurora and Wyatt both feel like they've reached a standstill in their lives. Aurora about to be a junior in college, Wyatt on the precipice of graduation. There shouldn't be a question of anything more between them, not when Wyatt respects his best friend, Ryder Harris, too much to do anything reckless. But little do they know, what comes next is something they've both been waiting for all their lives. * * * part II - Aurora & Wyatt * * * All of My Life. Copyright © September 2022.

When River crosses paths with a man who speaks to every hidden hunger inside her, their connection spirals into an all-consuming pull neither of them can resist-but is she Grayson's salvation... or his ruin? *** Everyone in River Avelle's hometown knows about Grayson Maddox-the troubled bad boy who almost killed another student in the middle of the school hallway. Those who look into Grayson's eyes only see pure fury and hatred. They all think he's beyond redemption, even Grayson himself. But not River. As the seemingly perfect good girl, River saw something more in those alluring grey eyes. Something worth holding onto. From the first time their eyes connect, both Grayson and River feel the intense, undeniable attraction between them...but neither of them understand what's pulling them together so fiercely. The closer they get and the more vulnerable they become, River has to wonder: is she saving Grayson from his darkness? Or is she just pulling him further into hers? *** He tips my head toward his with his index finger, keeping my eyes trained on him and driving me crazy with the primal look on his face. His grey eyes look heavy, filled with dark desire, and a shock runs up through my core. Everything around us disappears and all I can sense is him and the hardness pressing between my legs. "What are you doing to me, River?" he whispers, his voice raspy and utterly captivated. His face is lowering and I'm closing my eyes, waiting for soft lips to press against mine. My whole body is on fire as I hold my breath for his touch. *** Cover by @strayin
