"One of my favorite tropes is someone who believes they're hard to love and someone who loves them like it's breathing." TW: Mentions of suicide and abuse Forest Gray is what everyone would describe as a golden boy; perfect grades, the star of the football team, and a damn good friend. He is rich and good looking, he has it all. Except the one thing he's wanted his whole life; his parents love and acceptance. They are never home, yet they hold a protective barrier around him no matter what. They even own the school he goes to. Forest is to do and be who they say, and he's never been one to disobey or displease anyone, except for when he falls in love with the one boy who's able to break his parents spell. Atlas Hart is different from most people, because most people don't skip school and disappear for days or even weeks at a time. But most people don't have his intense emotions and outbursts of anger, or a broken family, or looked at as the outcast of the school. When Forest meets Atlas, he can't believe he's never noticed someone so perfect for him, and Atlas just can't believe someone like Forest is even talking to him. They fall helplessly in love, creating a bump in the plan Forest's parents laid out for his life before he was even born. Follows the struggles of falling in love with someone you're not supposed to and coming to terms with it while facing obstacles like family and friendship complications in which the characters have to overcome.

When Alistair Melek gave his life to the sea, a various degree of things changed. For starters, his love for bloodshed was exemplified. Bolder. He was drawn to the clash of a sword, blood spiling below to floorboards, like a moth drawn to a flame. And this love was damned to spread through his crew as some treacherous disease, claiming any and all who joined. But he knew this was the price he'd pay. The price for the sea itself. So when his crew completes another standard loot and pillage from a merchant ship, he allows his men a bit of fun. He liked to give them an audience, rounding up those who didn't fall victim to the blade during battle, and forcing them to beg for their lives. To prove how much they really wanted to live. Alistair had ruled the sea for some years now. Killed thousands, maybe tens of thousands. Destroyed hundreds, maybe thousands of vessels. And yet, each feeble human was all the same. There was not one man he threatened that didn't beg for their lives with all they had in them when faced with the wrong end of the sword. Each feeble human was always the same. Or so he thought. And yet, he also thought that this would be one standard job. A treat for his men after a night of good work. But this particular survivor, the one with long white hair and dead looking eyes... He wasn't a merchant. He couldn't have been. More important, there was no hesitancy when Alistair asked the fairly built man whether he wanted to live, and the man replied with a simple no.

A lesbian Christmas romance between a mafia boss and a designer hired for Christmas. Maybe Christmas isn't the most joyful time of the year...

A collection of short stories, some written with new characters and some with familiar faces

When Jack's police record was getting too big for his father to keep bribing the police, a deal was cut in his behalf that sent him away to live with his aunt and start senior year somewhere else. There, he meets Jeovanni. The boy puts efforts into getting to know Jack, efforts that Jack doesn't appreciate. But when he found out Jeovanni was a repeat student for a reason unknown to the whole school, Jack gets intrigued into figuring out why. But, just as the reasons why Jack is the way he is, some secrets aren't made to be unveiled. AUTHOR'S NOTE: This book is a spin-off of one of the characters of my other book "Found", but you don't have to read it in order to understand "Forged Bonds", since both of them are independent stories. Enjoy the reading!

"You know what? Everything....every bad thing that is happening to me is because of you and your lack of empathy and consideration. Always doing what you feel like in the moment. Not thinking about the pain you cause the people around you. Always so selfish and immature!" Nyx and Liam are polar opposites. They are princes of neighboring kingdoms and were forced to marry each other to benefit both nations. It was irritation at first sight, but that bloomed into something more, something unexplainable. Their chemistry was undeniable but their personalities mixed like oil and water. In all of royal history, there have never been two kings ruling one nation. At first, it wasn't a competition, but somewhere along the way, it became one. How will Nyx and Liam solve it? Will one come out on top? Will they learn to co-exist? Or will they both come out losing? This is, "The Royal Diaries". Written by @Sherry7888 and @criseada Started: 10/21/23 Finished: 12/03/23

For three years Kasim, Nala, and Zuri had been a throuple. They'd started off as close friends throughout highschool but it wasn't until college when sexual feelings started between the three and that soon turned into romantic feelings. Despite their families views and opinions on their relationship they had stuck through it and had thrived once they got the hang of being with one another. Things had been going great until Orion- Nala's bestfriend had went through something traumatic in his life and they'd opened their home to him. He was a bisexual male and Kasim found himself becoming curious once he was around more. He'd never struggled with his sexuality before he'd always been a straight man- something about Orion had intrigued him though. One drunken night had changed the dynamics of the once shared friendships/relationships between the four. Could they add on more than they could handle? More people came with more drama/problems. Was that one night worth it enough to change their throuple into a-- QUAD?

It wasn't until his boss gave him a chance and purpose in life once he was on edge, and giving up. Not knowing that one of those purposes to live soon became her husband, a man who absolutely hated gay men and gave him hell. Soon enough would Sincere become more than- THE ASSISTANT?
