What happens in the beach house stays in the beach house. Except Noah. No matter how many times Arielle tries to walk away, she always ends up back in his bed, in his arms, and completely out of excuses. The problem? This summer, everyone is watching.

'"Can you spread your legs a little farther for me, baby?" he asks me, his voice a low whisper. I nod, doing exactly as I'm told, and he bites down on his lower lip. "Good girl," he breathes, and those two words alone do the most wicked things to me. His fingers trail even farther north until he reaches the hem of my underwear. His eyes meet mine and I have to let out a shaky breath, holding on tight to him to keep myself stable. "Yes or no?" he asks me quietly, and I nod frantically.' 🌸🌸🌸 Lexi Brooks' love life was suddenly flipped upside down when she was kissed by Bryce Bradshaw the day before he mysteriously moved away. It left her heart in a twist, until her mind was trapped elsewhere when 'The Incident' occurred; quite possibly the hardest thing she'd ever go through. But Bryce always had it easy. He was the heartthrob, the bad boy, the perfect guy. He had the looks, the talent, and the charisma. Though to Lexi's surprise, on the rare occasion she could catch him out of the spotlight, she saw something else there. She could tell that he was a little distant. He could tell that she was a little different. The only crucial detail: He simply left without a word. 🌸🌸🌸 Highest Rankings: #1 in Drama #1 in Heartbreak #1 in YA 🌸🌸🌸 'Something There' Book #1

PERFECT LIFE. PERFECT BOYFRIEND. All it took was his best friend transferring back to turn her world upside down. Maya has everything she's ever wanted-a devoted boyfriend, a steady future, a love story that's supposed to last. Liam is safe, familiar, right. Then Nathan shows up. Liam's best friend. Cold, sharp, impossible to ignore. From the start, he gets under her skin, challenging her, frustrating her-tempting her in ways she refuses to acknowledge. She hates him. He doesn't like her either. At least, that's what they keep telling themselves. But tension has a way of unraveling, and some lines-once crossed-can never be undone. "We shouldn't," he breathes against my lips. But he doesn't move away. "I don't care," I whisper back... 🔥 Mature Content | Slow-Burn | Enemies to Forbidden Lovers 🔥

"Be a good boy, Ares, and just follow my lead." His chest rose up rapidly, taking his hands into mine and placing them on my waist. Feeling him begin to grow hard and the pool of wetness between my legs ached my soul. I needed him now. A piece of his hair fell on his forehead, his thumbs moved in circular motion as I rocked my hips back and forth, holding onto his shoulders for support. I unbuttoned his shirt, revealing more of his toned chest; I was practically salivating at this sight. It was obvious that he was going to the gym, even just by looking at his arms you could tell. This man was pure perfection, and I was pure seduction. "W-we shouldn't be doing this," his voice was breathless and ragged. My back arched because of the growing sensation I was feeling; he dipped his head between my neck, placing light kisses. I fist his hair as my jaw drops; my panties are drenched. "We should, we had a deal." _____ Violet Gray was a sophomore in college and failing her classes. With her growing popularity due to her looks and partying every night, Violet had completely forgotten the true reason for being in school. She had two options: get kicked out of college or find a tutor. Violet didn't want either; she was embarrassed to be kicked out. Ares Meadows was the epitome of smart and talented; his grades were all straight A's. He didn't have time to party nor focus solely on his looks and popularity. Ares was a nerd with even more nerdy friends, but the way he looked distracted everyone from the fact that he was a nerd. But nobody wants an inexperienced man.

"You make me weak. You make me mad, you make me crazy." he breathes, staring me in my eyes. "What am I saying.." he chuckles and stares at my twiddling hands.

Due to the changes being made on this platform, I have made the informed decision after watching a couple commentary videos that I will be moving everything into Tumblr. Below is my Tumblr blog name I hope to see you over there. :) And if not, thank you truly for engaging with any of the things I've posted on here and giving me the courage to adventure into realms that I didn't think I would be allowed to walk in. Xoxo L @ booksthattalkbyl Rue is sweet. Quiet. Off-limits. She's also, a STEM major, curvy, and staying with her best friend's family over winter break. Kevin? Her best friend's older brother. He's 24. Built like a god. A basketball star headed towards the NBA and apparently obsessed. She only meant to check out the noise coming from his room. She didn't expect to hear him groan her name. Or see what he was doing-with her...... She should've left. Should've slammed the door and acted like it never happened. But instead... she walked in. Now their secret is hot, heavy, and impossible to undo-and Kevin doesn't play fair when he wants something. Especially her. This story contains mature themes and is intended for readers 18+.

𝐑𝐔𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐃 The Wreckage Duet #2 💔 Isla Reyes has loved her best friend's older brother for almost six years. Jax Miller has spent years pretending he doesn't love her back. 🔥 They keep happening. One night turns into two. Two turns into more. Every time, she tells herself it's the last time. Every time, he swears it meant nothing. They're both liars. 🥀 She's always been there for him. When his sister left. When a near-fatal accident left him shattered. She sat by his hospital bed for weeks. Hopeful. Waiting. Then he healed. And just like always, he shut her out. 😤 She's done being his secret. His sometimes. His almost. She's moving on. 🖤 But watching her with someone else is making Jax realize that the woman he's spent years pushing away might be the only one who ever saw the real him. And some things, once ruined, can't be fixed. ♡ ♡ ⚠️ Trigger Warning ⚠️ ⚠️ 18+ content | Legal age of consent always observed | Reader discretion advised 🤍 This story contains mature and sensitive content.

Getting sent away by your parents sucks. Getting sent away by your parents to live in Italy with your grandma is... less sucky. Especially when your days consist of the beach, ice cream, and a cute boy who is adamant on making this summer count. But two months isn't a lifetime, and reality is chasing both of the teens down.

Aidan and Zayden had never known a life without each other. Their mothers were best friends who were pregnant at the exact same time, which led to the boys being born just one week apart. Aidan came first, earning the "A" in their lifelong partnership, while Zayden followed to complete the set. From that moment on, they were inseparable-they never fought, they agreed on everything, and they moved through life in perfect sync. Their junior year of college started just as smoothly as the rest, until three weeks into their statistics class. Everything changed when Aubriella walked in. For the first time in twenty years, the peace between the two best friends was shattered. They both found her perfect, and for the first time, they began to fight over the same girl. Aubriella didn't just watch the conflict; she noticed it and used it to her advantage. Noticing their obsession, she manipulated the tension, convinced it was the easiest way to secure a nice, free place to stay. Soon, she was living in their off-campus house rent-free. While Aidan and Zayden were certain she was there because she wanted one of them, the truth was she couldn't have cared less about either boy. She just wanted a room. The only question was: would the boys find out she was manipulating them first, or would Aubriella actually fall for both of them?

Love doesn't always begin with a confession. Sometimes, it begins with a fight. If you love enemies-to-lovers, chaotic friendships, hilarious banter, and rom-com energy with plenty of heart, this book is for you.
