Indian girls are generally expected to study to a certain level, possibly work for some time and BAM! get married and have kids. What if said Indian girl wishes to do something more? What if she wants to stand on her own two feet? What if she wishes to live life her way and ignore her annoying relatives' qualms about her so-called 'unacceptable behavior'? Enter Ana Desai. Age 21, B.E in comp science with an astounding 9.6 CGPA (though the society *cough* annoying relatives *cough* feels she should've tried harder, but then again, they'd probably feel the same even if she'd got 10) and smartarse extraordinaire. Yep, she's a nerd. But not the kind of nerd you're used to. This sassy lass chooses (in spite of being harangued by the 'society') to pursue her M.S in comp science, instead of the usual IT company route that many take. Everything seems peachy in the beginning, but what happens when a certain green-eyed asshole (that she may or may not like-like) lights a fire under her bloated ego? Sparks fly, that's what. No, really. Literal sparks. And daggers. And guns. And tanks. Cover by: AprilDanfields (Thank you so much! It's so relevant to the story!) A/N- Highest Rank: 62 in General Fiction.

A short story about being romanced.

When Victoria 'Tori' Peige found out that Zachary Anderson was the reason for all of her bestfriend's past break-ups, she knew she had to step in and make a move. Even if it was against her will, Ms. goody-goody asked Zach to be her boyfriend. Little did Tori know that Zach only agreed because he wanted to use her in order to get to her bestfriend. But what would happen when the relationship that started out with lies and deceit turn into something...real?

Nightingale is human - or would be, had it not been for the manner of her creation. Genetically engineered and grown to adulthood in a lab, she was created, not born. Why? For the sole purpose of the entertainment of rich men as one of the many Inamoratas in the bordello business . Beautiful, elegant, a superb dancer and an even better singer, she is the perfect lover for any man. Perfect, that is, except for her personality - the one thing you can't engineer.

(Must Date the Playboy Book 3) Despite attempts of being 'just a friend', Zach realized that his feelings for Tori would never change. Now that he's finally ready to get her back, would his second chance at love be worth the shot--even if the circumstances try to break them more apart? *** Zach made the ultimate sacrifice of letting Tori go--giving her and James his blessing, knowing it would make her happy. But just as he decided to remain in her life as a friend, what if circumstances change and the truths that they initially believed in are purely misunderstandings? Would Zach's efforts be enough to make Tori love the playboy again?

(Must Date the Playboy Book 2) Tori tried her best to move on from the playboy who broke her heart. But just as she thought she was finally okay, Zach unexpectedly came back to mess her up. In order to stop her feelings from resurfacing-and to save herself from hurting-she decided to hate the playboy. But is hating the playboy the key to her happiness? Or will it just cause another heartbreak? *** When Victoria 'Tori' Peige dated the playboy Zachary 'Zach' Anderson based on lies, they sure have paid the price. After being left heartbroken by him eight months ago, she is finally ready to move on. Just as she gives James a chance, Zach comes back and messes up her life again. Will Tori choose to be brave and be honest with her own feelings? Or will she continue hating the playboy even if her heart tells her otherwise? Cover Designed By Lydia Carr
