What if Anjali had died in the car accident that Shyam had orchestrated for her on the wedding day of Payal and Akash?

~ 2021 WATTY'S SHORTLIST ~ "I-well, I..." I hesitated with my response. I wanted to let go. To not worry about what would happen in the future. I'd always loved staring into fires. It hypnotized me with its beauty and danger. It was so tantalizing to look at, but one little touch could destroy. I knew the heat between Tyler and I was similar. It started off small but it had only grown in the weeks he'd been here. We'd fed it unintentionally, and it had gone from an ember to a crackling flame. Every nerve in my body wanted to reach out and touch it, even though I knew I'd get burned. *************************************************** Pia Callahan always lived a carefree life with no worries. Her only responsibilities were to attend her college classes (sometimes) and keep herself fed (on ramen). When tragedy strikes, Pia is all of the sudden thrown into a whirlwind of change. She has to grow up and take on more responsibility than she could ever imagine: the custody of her best friend's son. Pia may not believe she is the best person for the job, but she is determined to do it. She'll trade in frat parties for PTA meetings and beer-bongs for apple juice. But what happens when the ruggedly hot motocross athlete Tyler Westwood shows up in her small town? Tyler lives on the fast track, never caring too much about consequences. You can't when your job is to do backflips through the air. Sometimes, you just have to send it and hope for the best. From the second Tyler meets Pia, he knows he wants her. But she is determined to ignore their bubbling chemistry. She has priorities now and a summer fling isn't one of them. Will Pia be able to stay away from Tyler? Or will she decide to hit the throttle? ***************************************************

Arshi Love Story... Peep in to know

When photography student, Willow Kennedy, gets offered an internship with her college's renowned ice hockey team, The Michigan Wolverines, she anticipates three things: 1) Her twin brother being an unbearable and over-protective nightmare. 2) Her photographs not making any real impact whatsoever. 3) The team completely shutting out the curly-haired girl pointing a camera in their faces. What Willow didn't take into account, however, was the Wolverine's team captain. Rumoured NHL first draft pick, dreamboat and total game changer- Tate Wilder. With his infectious dimpled smile, sparkling green eyes and addictive personality, Tate quickly turns Willow's internship into a life-changing and eye-opening experience- one filled with love, friendship and opportunities. Willow didn't meet the Michigan Wolverines looking for love, and funnily enough neither did Tate, but love soon found them. ********* "Pretty please?" Her lip juts out in an irresistible pout and you'd almost think she was a sweet innocent flower judging by the puppy dog eyes she's flashing me. But that image is little tarnished by the hand she has dipped into my boxers. I can feel my Adams apple bob as I reply. "O-okay. Fine, you win this time." The smile I get in response is absolutely blinding. A full, mega-watt grin with teeth, crinkled eyes and blush on the apples of her cheek. I'll let her win everything if I get that fucking smile in return.

"You just have no idea." His voice was thick with restraint. "W-what," I breathed. His gaze flicked to my lips as his thumb stroked again. The calloused pad against my soft flesh sent goosebumps down my arms. His once warm eyes were dark as they lifted and bared into my soul. "What you do to... men." His husky whisper weakened my knees. I almost fell but his other hand settled on my hip, pulling me closer to him. "What you do to me," he added on a breath. The hand on my jaw shifted. His fingers left trails of tingles as he slipped them back slowly, under my earlobe and into my curls. *************************************************** As a young girl, Charlotte Avery's favourite pass time was daydreaming about her Prince Charming: Archer Johnson.

Now, they must both decide between what's more important, their love or their deceit.

He's her stoic gargoyle guardian - and she's the curvy heiress who tempts his granite heart. Ariella Wainwright, heiress to a fortune, is caged by golden bars of high society and her father's overbearing protection. With a mind as sharp as her curves are lush, she craves the adventure that's always been just beyond her reach. But when danger breaches the walls of her sheltered world, it's not just her spirit that's freed-it's the shadows that hunger for Wainwright blood. Enter Callum, the alpha leader of a hidden clan of gargoyles, whose very existence is intertwined with the Wainwright legacy. His wings are her shield, his gaze an unspoken vow of eternal protection-and yet, a smoldering desire threatens to breach the boundaries of duty. As Ariella's naivety to the supernatural world fades, so does her resistance to the magnetic pull between them. But with an ancient enemy lurking in the darkness, ready to extinguish the Wainwright line, the stakes soar higher than Callum's silent, moonlit vigils. Will the passion that flares between them fan the flames of their survival, or will it spell doom for both?

FINISHED BUT EDITING !! Kelly was taken without explanation-locked inside a world she doesn't understand, by a man she can't escape and no one to come to her rescue. Cade moves in shadows where power is bought in blood and loyalty is never questioned. Cold, controlled, and dangerously unreadable. He watched her as if she already belongs to him. She should hate him. The longer she stays, the harder it is to tell where fear ends and something far more dangerous begins. But Cade doesn't just take, He keeps. _________________ "You're shaking. I scare you." He said lowly. I stared up at him, my lips parted and nodded my head slowly, not realising my body was trembling until he said it himself. "You like it, don't you?" He whispered. ----------- #2 cade #1 Kelly
