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)

Season 1 of Suite Hearts *** Former friends William McAllister and Aiden Montgomery couldn't be more different. As the third son of a business mogul, nothing is expected of William, while Aiden shoulders every expectation of being the heir to his own family's empire.

Nothing has been the same since Aiden unexpectedly cut ties with William years ago, and the two have been sworn enemies ever since. So when Aiden reveals he'll be opening his own hotel, William, determined not to be left behind, announces he will be doing the same, despite having no business experience himself. Forced into proximity, the two men butt heads at every turn. But as they spend more time together, it's hard to ignore their connection, and before either of them realizes it, heated competition becomes friendly - and then something more. But falling in love isn't that easy. Soon, the same circumstances that brought them together threaten to drive them apart. Secrets, obligations, and manipulations rise to the surface, and William and Aiden are ultimately faced with a decision. Should they choose business...or pleasure? *** Weekly updates on Thursdays.

"I warned you, you live under Roman law now. And you violated it. You touched what is mine. The punishment for that is ... death." Plunging his sword into the attacker's chest, the Centurion let the man fall and bleed out on the ground. Aelynn shrieked, causing Marcus to direct his full attention to her. The girl was cowering in the corner of the room. She hid her face in her hands, and he heard her muffled sobs. Slowly, Marcus sheathed his gladius and approached her shivering figure. *************************************************************** An enemies-to-lovers story set in ancient times when the Roman Empire was at the peak of its power and extending its control over Britain.
