Ivey Pierce is an explorer, and thanks to her career as a wildlife biologist, she does not stay stationary for long. But when her parents die in a terrible accident, and her childhood home is left vacant for two years, she returns to the tattered memories concealed inside the house on Clifton Bay. Everything is the same: the salty scent, lush scenery, and talkative town. Yet, one thing is new-the man across the bay, whose dock faces hers. Each evening, she watches her new neighbor sit with his dog and a cup of coffee, then disappear during the day. He is the only person who does not know her business, and she knows nothing about him. It is not until she gets hurt and discovers he is Weston Turner, the new Nurse Practitioner in their coastal town. Soon enough, they are swept up in one another's current, trying to stay afloat. ************* Short novel [roughly 55-60k words] Copyright of Anna Steffey All rights reserved.

COMPLETED - Ezra Miller is the charming ice hockey goalie of every girl's dreams, Sophia Olson a prima ballerina with a feisty mouth and the most flirty spirit. It's no surprise that when these two meet at a bar, sparks fly. It's a simple agreement: Only once giving in to the temptation and then they'd go back to being perfect strangers... But life was never simple for the both of them, so why would this be any different. He's the arrogant nightmare she wishes to forget, and she's the girl that makes him break too many promises. They are forced to face each other, their heartbreaking past and life-changing secrets, but once they cross the line and give in to what they truly need, there's no way back. Two different people, who have more in common than they ever thought. Call it a coincidence, or bad luck, but we all know it's much more than that. 🦋 Once is a Charm is a spin-off from my second book Moondust. It can be read as a complete stand-alone. You don't have to have read Moondust to get this one. However, if you have started Moondust haven't read the last chapter yet I recommend to do so because you're gonna be confused because of a plot twist near the end of the book that changed everything. The story starts a month or two after the end in Moondust.

Brie Thompson has played ice hockey her entire life, and she doesn't intend to stop when she starts college. Not even when she finds out that her new school's only team is for "males exclusively". Brie has dealt with hockey douchebags her entire life, so it's nothing new when the team captain claims that they can't have a girl on the team. And it's certainly not going to stop her from playing, either. But if the captain won't back down without a fight, then game on. There's only one problem: Brie's heart seems to be determined to play a different game with the captain. Falling for him in the process was certainly not part of the plan. ✍︎︎ *plenty of dialogue and very little descriptions/world building in the first few chapters* (because I think world building is boring and just want to get to the plot, lol). Also, this is Wattpad and therefore not award-winning writing. So if you're picky about that, go read a published book that has been proofread several times by plenty of people instead of reading and then complaining about this one.

All it took was one moment for everything to change. One moment and three dangerous men who emanated equal parts pleasure and pain. Following her father's disappearance, Madelyn Adams takes her travels to New York in pursuit of an unlikely yet desperately needed lead. However, when she soon finds herself witness to murder, everything becomes so much more complex. A "gunshot to the head" was what she relayed to responding officers, yet after a suspiciously brief investigation, results concluded not a single trace of evidence to support the committing of any crime, let alone one as messy as the casualty Madelyn described. No blood, no fingerprints. It was almost as though it never happened. Almost. If it weren't for the lingering memory of that low voice in her ear or the caress of his gloved hands on her body, she would've thought she'd hallucinated. Taken together, that should have been the most complicated part, but it wasn't. Instead, it was the three dangerous men who covered it up and caught interest in her in the process. ____ "I don't know how long it's going to take you to realize this sweetheart, but you belong to us." He says, yanking my head back so that his intense eyes meet mine. "You're ours to fuck, ours to love, and ours to claim in any way we want, isn't that right Madelyn?" "Mmm, yes Sir." "Well it seems to me like you need a reminder." He growls into my ear, before flipping my body to face him. "Now be a good girl and spread your legs. I want to taste what a needy little mess my words have made you." ____ Theirs to Claim is a full length, reverse harem novel with material that may be difficult for some readers. This book ends on a cliffhanger and is recommended for 18+.

And she just might be the one they've been waiting for.
