In the ruthless world of mafia empires, Marcello Armaan Russo is feared by all-a cold, calculating man whose silence commands obedience, and whose wrath leaves no one unscathed. Driven by revenge and a decades-old family feud, he will stop at nothing to settle scores... even if it means crossing the line of morality. When a debt owed by a powerful Indian family goes unpaid, Marcello takes matters into his own hands. His plan: kidnap their youngest daughter, Mahira Sen, and hold her hostage in his sprawling mansion, expecting her father to pay what he owes and finally fulfill an old promise of vengeance. But Mahira is nothing like he anticipated. Carefree, savage, brilliant, and utterly fearless, she refuses to bend to his will. Her wit, defiance, and audacity both infuriate and intrigue the cold mafia heir. Beneath her fearless exterior lies a past filled with secrets and scars-shadows that could shatter alliances, reveal dangerous truths, and even change the course of their lives. As days of forced proximity pass, their rivalry ignites into something far more dangerous: a magnetic attraction neither can deny. Every glance, every touch, becomes a battle of wills-where desire blurs the line between enemies and something forbidden, irresistible, and consuming. Fate's Ruthless Desire is a dark, intoxicating tale of vengeance, forbidden passion, and a savage, brilliant woman who challenges a ruthless mafia heir at every turn. In a world ruled by power, secrets, and obsession, can desire survive-or will it destroy them both?

His face is leveled to mine and I can see tiny droplets of water on his face and lips as he draws closer to me, my anticipation is crazy as he moves milimeter by milimeter. I roll my eyes and move my head away. "Don't do this." He acknowledges what I said but doesn't act on it. He takes his hand and moves it to my jawline, moving my head to him. This causes me to become frantic. I can't get messed over. "Lucas, we literally just had this conversation. This isn't fair to me, please don't." His facial features soften completely at my tone and he looks at me genuinely. "I would never." With that he kisses me and my stomach explodes in butterflies, turning over. He moves his hands from the hood of his car to the side of my waist. "That wasn't fake, Natalie", his eyes intent on mine against the dark drizzling sky. I can't stop looking at him. She's a soloist who doesn't like help. Especially with a huge mission like this. Will the mission fall through? Or would she need a partner more than ever?

Luna, a surfer from the beautiful city of Cocoa Beach, Florida, is your typical modern day teenage girl... Or so she thought. After being saved from a shark attack during one of her nightly surfs, Luna begins to swear that her savior was a creature straight out of a work of fiction. Upon returning to the location of her attack after healing, Luna's world is flipped upside down when she discovers that her delusion was reality and she was saved by none other than a mermaid girl by the name of Lily. As fantasy and reality collide, Luna is forced to adapt to an entirely new world and learn to manipulate elements in a way no creature has ever done before. If she fails, not only will she die, but the entire mermaid race will be forced into extinction...

Global Cafe was the birthplace of many friendships that were bound to last forever. Every day, people flooded in and out of the little coffee shop located in the heart of Peerville with one, or multiple people following close behind. While Global Cafe had its downsides, what with all the rowdiness and fights that happened, it would always be remembered as the place where memories were made. This is the story of how Global Cafe gave birth to a group of friends that would not only grow close together, but find a home in each other's company. They'll have their disagreements, as all friends do, but the glue that is an inspired little soul called Ocean will always find a way to keep them from falling apart entirely. Not only will they grow as a group, but throughout their adventures they will also grow as individuals until one by one, they spread their wings and fly off in different directions, leaving the home once known to them as "Fam" to be gone but fondly remembered.
