'You know, Ivy,' his voice was low, making sure only I could hear him. 'If you find yourself being unhappy,' Harry reached for the inside of his jacket before slipping a card toward me.

Before Ivy knows it, they are faced with choices that could shatter their carefully constructed worlds. Can they see each other again? Can they promise no one gets hurt?

"You'll never get this done, you know?" The satisfaction was evident in his voice. "You could leave me alone so I can actually get this finished. Or pick up a brush." I gestured to the abundance of supplies I had purchased. "Mmm, no thanks. Don't really have my painting clothes on." My smirk reappeared and I turned fully to face him. "That's a real shame," I cocked my head to the side and fake pouted before pointing in his direction, "the door frame is wet." His body shot off the door frame he had been leaning against and he looked over his shoulder to see the line of white paint trailing down his presumably expensive coat. "Have a great rest of your day, Mr Styles." I flicked my hands in a 'go away' gesture before sliding the door closed behind him. **** TW: This story contains mentions/descriptions of physical/emotional/sexual abuse, coarse language and mature content.

Maddie West just graduated with a degree she isn't sure will save her-and an internship that might destroy her. She didn't expect her new boss to be Harry Styles: brilliant, ruthless in a courtroom, and emotionally untouchable in every other way. He's cold. Closed-off. And completely off-limits. But Maddie has never been good at staying away from things that scare her. As late nights turn into stolen glances and sharp banter turns into something dangerously intimate, Maddie and Harry find themselves pulled into a connection neither of them planned-and neither of them can afford. Because Harry is hiding something that could ruin them both. And Maddie is standing on the edge of a life that could disappear the moment she lets herself fall. Heartworm is a slow-burn, emotionally charged love story about wanting someone you shouldn't, trusting someone who doesn't trust himself, and the kind of ache that stays long after love begins. If you like: • tortured heroes • forbidden office romance • slow-burn tension • sharp dialogue • emotional intimacy • and love that hurts before it heals this story will stay with you.

Celia Starling and Harry Styles are the hottest actors currently riding the wave of Hollywood. Together they star in the latest rom-com...7,500 miles away from her director fiancé. After a burst pipe causes an unexpected flood, the co-stars are pushed closer together, more than expected - and in more ways than one. Now living together during the 50 day filming period halfway across the world from everyone else they know, Harry and Celia find themselves choosing to be together rather than simply accepting the universe's way of forcing them to co-exist in the same house. Boundaries begin to appear hazy, excuses are made, desires arise. Midnight fantasies turn into midday realities. Life altering secrets are revealed, shameful veiled confessions are shared, and it becomes harder to hide the truth when someone studies your mannerisms as if it's a new language they want to be fluent in. But nothing can really happen, right? She's engaged to someone else after all...

"In silent screams, in wildest dreams, I never dreamed of this."

When Harry Styles agrees to be best man at Ed Sheeran's wedding, he expects speeches, champagne, maybe a few happy tears. What he doesn't expect is to be thrown back into the orbit of Lottie Hall-maid of honour, indie musician, and the girl who once poured a gin and tonic over his head before vanishing from his life six years ago. Once, they were almost something. Almost collaborators. Almost lovers. Until one overheard conversation shattered everything. Now they're forced to play nice in matching wedding roles, pretending there isn't a history pulsing underneath every cutting remark and lingering glance. Lottie's tattoos are new. Harry's heart is older. And the fault lines between them? They're starting to shake again. Tangled in old wounds, wedding planning, and the press's ever-watchful eye, Harry and Lottie must navigate the one thing they've always avoided: telling the truth about what really happened that night-and what it still means now. COMPLETE.

But in a world where love is control, and trust is power, one mistake could destroy them both. She was meant to be temporary. Now he's addicted. And she's kneeling willingly at the feet of the devil.
