Fragmented is a psychological horror told through the disintegrating journal entries of Maddie, a 17 year old girl institutionalized after years of emotional neglect and domestic abuse. But Maddie doesn't know she's in a psych ward, she thinks she's found a new "family," and she clings to this delusion with fragile desperation. As her grasp on reality deteriorates, her journal becomes a haunting record of confusion, time loops, and vanishing people she swears never existed. Her memories contradict, her thoughts repeat, and her entries slip into chaos as she rewrites reality to avoid the truth. She was abandoned. Fragmented is an unsettling exploration of trauma, repression, and the quiet horror of a mind trying to protect itself by destroying the truth. There's also unhealthy manipulation in the category of romance but it is not that.

"I know you're going through something." The words come out rougher than I intend. "You try to hide it, but I see right through you, Carmen Castro." "Aaron..." Her eyes drop to her hands, her fingers twisting together. "You don't have to tell me anything. But I need you to know that I'm here for you. Whenever you need me. Okay? You can text me, call me, whatever. I'll drop everything." Her eyes flicker up to meet mine. She looks... scared. Not of me. But of something else. "Please?" I add, my voice breaking. I was never one to beg but ever since meeting Carmen, I've been a fucking beggar. She swallows hard and nods her head slowly. "Okay." Then, gives me a weak smile before slipping out of the car.

Yet, she's hiding something dark, something dangerous - more than just her blackened hands beneath her gloves. A curse is slowly spreading through her, and she's running out of time to stop it. With ancient magic she barely understands and a past she can't outrun, Karina has to find answers before it's too late. When she crosses paths with Sebastian Sallow and Ominis Gaunt, an unlikely trio forms. Bound by secrets, forbidden magic, and a desire to protect what little good remains, they must navigate the dangers of both Hogwarts and the darkness lurking within themselves. But as Karina's condition worsens and the truth starts to come out, she realizes some things are harder to fight than just dark wizards. Especially when the darkness is already inside you.

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)

Struggling artist with nothing to lose, she's unexpectedly swept away from her bleak New York life to an opulent villa in Venice - under the watchful eye of the elusive billionaire, Dario Bellanti. He's dangerous, intoxicating, and utterly unpredictable. With a past darker than the Venetian nights, Dario holds Luna captive in a game where art and desire bleed into obsession. She's supposed to paint her freedom, but every brushstroke draws her deeper into his world - a world where pleasure is power, and surrender might be the only escape.

Ariella Sterling didn't belong at Camden. She didn't have the designer bags, the chauffeur, or the kind of surname that opened doors on its own. What she had was a brain that could solve any equation or decipher any pattern, yet, the reason for being here that had nothing to do with ambition. Max Wright. Her best friend since childhood. The boy who always shined too bright, even in the darkest corners of East London. Max was everything: charming, golden, untouchable. And Ariella? She was the shadow behind him. Quiet, loyal, hopelessly in love. But Max fell for Olivia Kingsley. Perfect, polished, untouchable Olivia. The kind of girl Ariella could never be. And that's when things shifted. Because Olivia's world came with a cost. Her brother, Ronan, was dangerous. And Max was too close. Ariella begged him to leave. He wouldn't. So she found another way in. Theo Astor. Ronan's best friend. Arrogant, loud, annoyingly handsome. Everything Ariella hated. Her plan was simple: get close to Theo, get closer to taking Ronan down. But Theo wasn't like the others. He didn't try to fix her. He just saw her. And worse? He started to care. "You're a lot more interesting than I thought, Sterling," he said, with a smile curving at his lips and a spark in his eyes. She should've walked away. Should've stuck to the plan. But it's hard to play the game when your heart starts to get involved. Now she has to choose: protect Max, or fall for the boy who was never supposed to mean anything at all.
