Academic Rivals to Lovers in a Boarding School ..... "You wanna know the really dumb meaning behind my name?" He muses and I walk ahead of him. "Nope." "Basically, it means the transporter of goods by cart or wagon, it's from an old french word I believe. You wanna know yours?" "You looked up mine?" I question, hiding the small smile on my face, because I'm mad at him or whatever. For... I don't know why but I'm mad at him because I am. Carter catches up to me, grinning to himself. "Emilia means rivals, it's derived from the root of some latin word. Isn't that strange?" That's just a coincidence, he's probably lying anyway. "Yeah, real peculiar." I reply. ..... #2 - onebedtrope 16/06/22 #1 - mila 16/06/22

To crave safety was one thing. To sleep with a monster to get it? That was something else entirely. ____________________ The bar. Her best friend. The need to forget her ex. That's all Maebelle Taylor was signing up for one Thursday night in college. The icing on the cake was the tall and handsome one-night-stand she managed to fall into bed with, and she was able to achieve what she set out to do: Forget. However, things don't go as planned when said one-night-stand saunters back into her life. Not only is he as handsome as he was during their night of fun, but he seems to be a completely different person than Maebelle remembers. He's dangerous, brooding, vicious, and far from the man she thought she had first met. And he wants absolutely nothing more to do with her. What seems like fate is what tosses them together. What seems like karma is what can't keep them apart. Mr. tall and handsome lives a life far from the safe haven Mae so desperately craves to have, but after stumbling upon something she shouldn't have seen? Mr. tall and handsome isn't so keen to let her go. ____________________ t r o p e s: Grumpy x sunshine Mature themes Criminal/Gang-related content ____________________ D I S C L A I M E R: this story has been re-edited and republished. the events of this story , for those who have read it prior to February 2023 , have been slightly altered to make way for my improved and matured writing style (as well as to fix plot inconsistencies). originally published : june 2017 newly published : february 2023 ____________________ Copyright © All Rights Reserved

Laura hated his every move, his every breath and Chris hated Laura with every fiber in his body. So how is it that they find themselves in a heated passionate twist of lust every time they argued? Was this raging fire within them both just a taste of what drives them both towards each other with such madness? Can love really spring up from the depths of hate? There's only one way to find out...by reading this book. I know a lot of you are reading this book and thank you for that but there is a more recent updated version of this book posted on my profile as "Hating You Sweetly (New Edit)" It has a few different scenes. The characters are also a bit more defined, if that makes sense.

This story follows two 17 year olds competing for the love of one another despite religious barriers.

When good girl highschooler Ellie falls in love with an ex-convict, old family secrets come back to haunt them and keep them apart. ***** Living up to her "good girl" reputation had never been an issue for Ellie Browning, a small town Australian highschooler. That is until she meets Haze. Handsome, tattooed, and with a criminal past, he is everything she was taught to avoid. Unable to control their feelings, the two form an unbreakable bond that unearths family secrets and emotional turmoil for Ellie and everyone she has ever loved. With all odds against them, Ellie and Haze must ultimately choose between their love and familial obligations. [[word count: 150,000-200,000 words]]

Sierra Lancaster has had an agonizingly mediocre life. She grew up in a happy home, made loyal friends, graduated college, and is now pursuing her dream of running her own bakery. Boring, right? A story like this wouldn't be one for the books. At least not until you bring a hot neighbour into the mix. A tall, brooding, shredded (like, wash your clothes on those abs shredded), and wildly successful sports agent. Interested yet? It gets better. Said neighbour isn't just a rando, but Sierra's childhood nemesis that made her formerly chubby days a living hell. Now we're talking, aren't we? Holden Rey has always been the golden boy. Holden...golden...you following? You'd think the bitchy universe would do its job and throw some karma his way but to no avail. Not only has he got it all, but he knows it too. He also still has it out for Sierra and resumes being a jack-ass of epic proportions (and his ass ain't his only epic proportion) as soon as he realizes who the new girl next door is. It's the same old story with these two except this time, there's unwilling attraction and sexual tension underneath all the hate. Is it just lust or does the bitchy universe actually have a plan? So maybe this story is one for the books after all. *A hilarious, enemies-to-lovers, romantic standalone. Rated 18+ due to mature content. All rights reserved to TheFeveredBookaholic.*
