Sequel to Never Fear. With the aftermath of Arkham Asylum, Jonathan and Willow set out to start anew. Only the new life they set out to live, doesn't differ that much from their past one. Problems popping up are to be expected. Drug dealing obsessed crime lords, a new secure prison, and family predicaments are just a few hurdles to overcome. Not to mention trying to stay under the radar of the Batman.

Growing up together and being friends is all well and good. But sanity slips, and bonds break. People who were once friends can become enemies, even more so they can become victims.

"There's no such thing as soul mates. I mean just because someone is perfect for you doesn't mean you're meant to be with them. The thing about love is that it's unexpected - the best kind anyway."

After spending years as one of the most notorious rakes of the ton, Anthony Bridgerton has decided it's time to settle down and carry on the family line. He knows love exists, because his parents were a shining example of a loving, happy marriage. Still, he has no intentions of falling in love with his intended bride. Anthony's father died quite young, so Anthony believes, albeit irrationally, that he will die young too. Falling in love is a complication he doesn't need in his already too short life, so he sets out to court the beauty who is the latest toast of the ton. She is a woman who meets his requirements for a wife, but with whom he could never see himself falling in love. Anthony just didn't count on the infuriating lady stirring his desires in a way no other woman ever has. Amelia Windsor has no intention of allowing Anthony Bridgerton anywhere near herself. She vows to do whatever it takes to interfere with the rakish viscount's courtship, but in the process manages to unintentionally get herself into some outlandish situations, which also place her into close proximity with the man himself. Her encounters with Anthony leave her hot and bothered and feeling confused. But outside forces draw the two apart. Princess Amelia is engaged to King of Spain, while Anthony is forcefully engaged to Miss Edwina Sharma. Neither are a love match. Can the two break free of their chains and reunite? Or will they forever be held in place by their mistakes, regrets, and societal expectations? We shall find out, my gentle reader. #2 lovesquare

"true love is something else entirely. it is when the rest of the world goes quiet. it is not eyes that meet, but souls that dance. settle into each other. make room for each other. until there is nowhere else to hide." ~ kate sharma or bridgerton imagines from my tumblr for anthony bridgerton and benedict bridgerton

He is the dark, she is his light. He is a murderer, she is a lawyer. London can be a dark place. For Nora, it is not. She loves London. Since growing up in Summerhouse, she has fought her way up and now works as a lawyer at a well known law firm in central London. She left her old life behind and gets to experience a very different London than the one she grew up knowing. Nevertheless, she knows that her two brothers Jamal and Omar are still involved the underground activities surrounding Summerhouse. When her brothers get arrested for murder, Noras life is turned upside down. Instead of returning home to her new life she is being kidnapped by the most brutal man in London, Sully, and his people. He stands for everything that she hates, he hates the life that she lives. Hate and temptation clash and the flames burn down every single moral and principle that Nora and Sully had set up for their lives. A battle starts - for survival, for the right thing, for family, for a better life and for love.

"I hate you." I scream in his face, not realizing that he has me backed up against a wall, only inches away from me. "I hate you." I whisper again, my breathing heavier and my drained feeble body aching with desire. His proximity is killing me and making me feel alive at the same time. "I hate you too." And our lips crash together. ..... Zayn finds Stella irresistible. Stella finds Zayn irresistible. It was simple. Resist. But no one can ever resist their body, can they? As their past torments them, their present tests them. A thin string holding them together. When love paves it's way between the two, that string is threatened to break by their past as well as their hearts. If there was any love at all. NOT EDITED WARNING: PHYSICAL ABUSE, DEPRESSION, RAPE AND ALOT OF SPICE 🌶️🌶️
