Book 1!!!!! _____________________ When two people belonged together, they just belonged together, as messed up as they both are. And when it came to 30 years James Darcy and 22 years Charlotte Kineton, they belonged together in the most intense and dysfunctional of ways. You see these two are broken people, so broken that they shouldn't be together. Yet, fate has a way of making things happen, which is how James Darcy had first laid eyes on her. James Darcy is a complicated person, which is what happens when you witness your father kill both of your siblings and you had to carry that load around like a heavy bag of potatoes. He hadn't known then what it was about her that had attracted him so much beside her beauty, but he knew that he wanted her which was why he made her a proposal that she couldn't refuse, because well; she didn't. "I'll take care of you, pay for everything you need, including your school, and in return, I want you to be mine, and be devoted to me when I'm around. I'm not trying to make you fall in love with me, but sharing you is not an option." Charlotte's life was fvcked up, that's also kind of what happens when your prostitute of a mother gets killed by her pimp and you find yourself navigating life in the system, going from one foster home to another. Which is why when James Darcy made his proposal, she had quickly accepted. She figured that could be her way to a better life. But neither one of them was ready for the intensity of their relationship that left them both vulnerable and weak because fate was a fucked up thing and it wanted them on their knees.

She's rich, she's famous, she's twice his age--and she can make him a star. Should homeless teen Shoni King leave the family that needs him and the girl who loves him for her fast lane life? EDITORS PICK, JULY 2021, NARomance Awards SHORTLIST 2021. Elliott Weston, who went from child star to pop star before dropping out of the "business of show" years ago, thinks Shoni has the looks and smarts to make it big. And she's willing to share him with the world and the "other woman," Xochitl, if she must. But Shoni, who has worked hard to keep food on his family's table for most of his young life, is an old soul not easily fooled by "smoke and mirrors." Elliott fascinates him-she's worldly, wild and wonderfully "well-preserved" for her age. And, as a natural caretaker, he's also concerned by her failing health. But he loves the saner, simpler world he comes from--and a Native woman from across the border who adores him deeply and selflessly just as he is. He's standing on the edge of stardom, but should he take that leap? (MATURE--sexual content)

His tone was low and quiet. "A t-shirt?" "That would be great actually," I said, steadying my uneven breath. His eyes dropped to my shoulder where the strap of my dress had fallen again. I felt his fingertips on my skin as he lifted it and slid it back into place. "No problem," he murmured, his lips barely parting to let the words out. "Wouldn't want to wrinkle this beautiful dress." ©️

Domick slid into the seat next to me and looked over. "Did you see how he was looking at you?" What? "H-he's not even my friend, just a partner sometimes." I managed to stammer out. "Trust me, he wanted to be more than just a partner." Domick sneered the last word. A surprised laugh escaped me, and I leaned towards him to whisper, "What makes you think that." "Because I notice when someone wants what's mine." ----------------------------- After I blew out my candles on my 7th birthday, I started to see things no one else could. Wings. I know, crazy right?

it's hard to explain the incomprehensible and overwhelming emotion, and lack of emotion, that I've been bearing for so long on my own. you can't fathom the inability to move, speak, eat, think, or even see clearly in this time of irregularity. all I can really describe is the hollow feeling of dragging this shell of a body with me. i'm trapped in myself. when one is like this, you know that you're not really... you. *** The way I've chosen to write every word - including the formatting, punctuation, and capitalization errors - represent symbolic significance to me. Explaining everything would expose my personal life in ways that I am extremely uncomfortable with, so please forgive me for anything that disturbes you. In this collection of poetry, I tend to us descriptively vague language to describe specific situations and emotions I've felt, and continue to feel, for the most part. I invite you to guess the battles and experiences I've written about, and to try and find the underlying meanings I've placed in each set of words. Or, even better, find your own meaning. I know that no one might care, but I've written these emotions for the purpose of expressing my distraught, and I am publishing this in an effort to reach out to others in the midst of their own wars.
