Insert from story "You have kind eyes." He said, holding my gaze. "You look innocent." That was on purpose. "Are you ever going to tell me your name?" He asked as he started to clean my foot. "I already did. It's Heather." "Heather." He said, keeping his voice even. "Yes, Heather Dean." He just chuckled, like he didn't believe me. "Why do I get the impression that you think I'm lying?" I asked. "Because of how you respond every time I called you that." Oh...Crap, that wasn't good. "You haven't shared your name either." I pointed out. "I'm waiting." He answered simply. "For what?" "For you to tell me the truth." He looked back up at me. "It only seems fair right?" "It would only seem fair if I was lying." He looked at me for awhile before saying, "So, you're going to stick to that story, huh? All right. Well, when you're ready to be honest, I'll share my name." He had a point but....I still needed to be careful. Yes, he had been kind but that still wasn't reason enough for me to trust him just yet.

cover by @JaelynnMoore 𝐆𝐚𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 It's so much easier to spread lies about people than it is to spread the truth. That's what Gabriel knows to be true, at least. According to everyone in his town, he's a monster. He doesn't deserve to be walking among the rest of them. That's far from the truth, though. He was never good at being alone, but it became something he was used to. After everything he'd gone through, he craved solitude. Until she showed up. She wiggled her way right into his heart and now all he craved was her. 𝐀𝐥𝐲𝐧𝐚 Moving to a small lakeside town in Washington was not where Alyna saw her life taking her. She also didn't expect that she'd fall so hard for the brooding mechanic who lived there. Everyone tells her that she should stay away from him. All of the rumors say that he's dangerous, but all she ever feels with him is safe. With obstacles at every turn, will their love be enough to endure even the worst challenge they'll face? Or will they fall apart under the weight? started: 12/15/2023 published: 05/18/2024 completed: highest rankings: #21 bwwm #66 ongoing

Most love stories start before the fireworks-before the passion, before the chaos. But not this one. Youssef El-Masri is the ruthless king of the Egyptian Mafia, worshipped and feared in equal measure. His empire is soaked in blood, his throne forged from bone and gold. And ruling right beside him is Nafisa Monroe-a stunning, sharp-tongued Black woman with queen energy so potent, entire cities kneel in her presence. She's not his weakness-she's his mirror, his madness, his equal in every way. Married, madly in love, and dangerously codependent, Youssef and Nafisa are the very definition of chaos in perfect harmony. They make war in the morning and love by moonlight. They speak in bullets, kiss through blood, and protect each other with the fury of a thousand suns. But when an old enemy resurfaces, threatening the empire they've built and the trust they've sworn in blood, the couple must decide how far they'll go to protect what's theirs. Their love is toxic to some, terrifying to many-but to them, it's the only thing pure in a world of shadows. Steamy. Savage. Unapologetically unhinged. Crowned in Crimson is a twisted, addictive love story about two dark souls who found light only in each other-and dared to burn the world for it. For readers who love: ✓ Mafia royalty power couples ✓ Black heroines with goddess energy ✓ Steamy scenes mixed with bullet casings ✓ Healthy love... wrapped in unhealthy levels of violence ✓ Ride-or-die romance to the grave and beyond #5 in Bloody

He left her to protect his bloodline. Now his bloodline is the one thing that could destroy him. Years ago, Amari Grant fell for Luca Moretti - heir to one of the most feared mafia families in Italy. He was her forbidden love, her undoing, and her heartbreak. When his family forced him to choose between his legacy and the woman he loved, Luca walked away... never knowing she was carrying his child. Amari built a new life in silence. She raised their son alone, far from Luca's world of guns and loyalty oaths. Now happily married and thriving. But secrets don't stay buried forever. When word of the boy reaches Luca's enemies, the unthinkable happens - her son is taken. Desperate and out of options, Amari does the last thing she ever thought she would: she goes back to Luca. The man who shattered her heart is now her only hope. When Luca learns the truth - that the child he's being asked to protect is his own - everything he's built starts to crumble. His marriage. His empire. His control. Now the ruthless don will burn the world to find his son and protect him... and the woman who still owns his heart. But rescuing them means war - and in the mafia, love is the deadliest weakness of all.

********** "I'm nobody's girl" I scowl in his face "but you can be my girl" he replies with a smirk on his face "I don't belong to anybody and I sure as hell don't wanna belong to you" I snap "to bad you already do" ********** Being claimed by the new boy isn't exactly how I planned my school year to Go. ***********
