Weston Calder doesn't do soft. Not anymore. Not since he watched his mother cheat and his father drink himself to death on the porch of Calder Ranch. Now, Weston lives alone on the land that ruined him, with only dust, silence, and the bitter weight of his past for company. That is-until she shows up. Willow Hart is used to running. From the foster homes that never loved her. From the pain her adoptive parents carved into her bones. From every place she's ever tried to settle. But when her car dies in the middle of nowhere, she ends up taking a job as a maid on Weston's ranch-and suddenly, stillness feels dangerous. She's too wild. He's too broken. And neither of them knows how to stop. What begins as resentment turns to heat. What simmers under the surface soon ignites. But Weston's ghosts don't stay buried for long-and Willow's past has never let her go quietly. On this land, love won't save them. But maybe-just maybe-it could burn them clean. [Patreon Exclusive]

A soulmate is a person with whom one has a feeling of deep or natural affinity. They aren't literally supposed to be a soul... Right? • • • • • "Listen, dude." I rubbed my hands over my face. "I don't get a single thing you just said and I'm not interested either. So I politely ask you to leave." I plastered a smile on my face. "Naw." My jaw clenched. "Excuse me?" "You are the only one who can see me. So naw, I'm not going anywhere." I blinked my eyes and tried to process his words, but remained blank. "I'm the only one who can see you?" He bobbed his head. I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself because this guy wasn't making any sense. "Leave my apartment or else I'll throw you myself." "Fortunately, that's something you can't do." He grinned. "Why?" "Because you can't touch me." I rolled my sleeves up to my elbows and cracked my knuckles. "This is your last warning, Finlay." I glowered and narrowed my eyes, trying to intimate him. "Leave." His lips stretched into a full grin, showing off his swoon-worthy dimples. "You're going to hurt yourself." "We'll see about that!" I yelled and launched myself at him. Instead of tackling him on the ground, as I imagined in my mind, I flew through him into the living room. "OPH!" I groaned as I landed on my face on the floor. I rolled on my back and rubbed my chest. F**k! "Are you ok?" Finlay came and crouch down next to me. "What the..." I sat on the ground and frowned as I stared at him. "I told you..." I ignored him and hesitantly held my hand in front of him and pressed it against his chest. My eyes bugged out of my sockets when I saw my hand go past him and came out of his back. "That tickles." He chuckled, and that was the last thing I remember before I faint. • • • • • FEATURED ON: @NA (It's Always the Butler) @mystery (Partners in Crime) @mystery (Cozy) @Badassreads (The Dauntless) HIGHEST RANKINGS: #1 Paranormal, Soulmate, mysteryromance #2 Secrets #5 Slowbu

"Curiosity killed the kitty Miss Adams." My body stiffened. Slowly I turned around just to see Mr. Parker standing in front of me with hands in his trouser pockets. I bit my lip. I thought he would be angry but when I looked at him. His face showed no emotion. He then started walking towards me I moved back. This continued until my back hit the door. Then he placed his one hand on my side, leaning forward, close to me. "What was rule number three Miss Adams." His face was extremely close to mine my breath got hitched. I couldn't answer his question why? Because I was more focused in the distance between us. "I asked you something Miss Adams." He said again. "T-That t-there a-are prohibited areas i-in the house where I shouldn't g-go." "It seems like you remember the rules. This room is one of those prohibited areas. So, from next time think before you put yourself into trouble." I just stared at his eyes. I was lost in those pair of sea-coloured eyes. No other guy has ever affected me this much as Mr. Parker.

WATTY'S 2022 SHORTLIST🏅A Qing Dynasty Snow White fairytale retelling with a Princess Mononoke twist. Featured on @Wattpad's Fantasy Adventures reading list and @WattpadExplorer. ***** Snow is anything but the submissive princess the Jade Palace expects her to be. Her foster mothers find her impossible, her royal tutor labels her incorrigible, and she recently threatened to shave her head if she were forced to marry. When the Empress presents her with an opportunity to go on the imperial spring hunt with the princes and her not-so-secret crush, Prince Erden, Snow jumps at the chance. Who knew that that would lead to an assassination attempt, a harrowing escape, and her getting hopelessly lost in a dark forest during a thunderstorm--with no survival skills whatsoever. The only things she has to help her survive are lots of moxie and latent magical powers she inherited from her deceased mother. Oh, and an ethereally white fox that led seven old dwarves to her. With the Empress's malicious intent now revealed, Snow must discover her true strength, who her mother really is, and what magical powers she wields, in order to find her way back to Erden. If she fails, she might never see him again and die a lonely old crone in the mountains. . . or get murdered anyway when the bloodthirsty Empress--said to have fantastical powers of her own--comes for Snow.
