"I will get you back, Sinclair." He grabbed my hand and put the ring on my palm, then closed my hand tight. "And that's a promise." I froze as he kissed my hand and slowly reached for my forehead. ─────── ○ ─────── After two years since her divorce with her NBA player ex-husband, Sinclair Leighton is ready to start fresh and swear that she was done playing the game. Until she met Essien Boateng, a former basketball player now billionaire. And when he saw her from across the court, she's the only game he wants to win.

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)

𝘽𝙧𝙞𝙖𝙧 𝙎𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 & 𝘾𝙖𝙢𝙥𝙗𝙚𝙡𝙡 𝘿𝙧𝙖𝙠𝙚 have spent four years perfecting the art of hating each other. Same volleyball team. Same impossible dreams. Completely different worlds. 𝘽𝙧𝙞𝙖𝙧 𝙎𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜 is the all-American sweetheart with a famous father and a Stanford scholarship - everything handed to her on a silver platter. Or so Campbell thinks. 𝘾𝙖𝙢𝙥𝙗𝙚𝙡𝙡 𝘿𝙧𝙖𝙠𝙚 is the ruthless team captain who clawed her way to a Berkeley full-ride, determined to prove she's the best player on the court, even if it means tearing down the one girl who won't get out of her way. Their rivalry is legendary. Their chemistry? Undeniable. What starts as a hate-fueled hookup in the back of a charter bus becomes an obsession neither can shake. Stolen moments. Dangerous kisses. The kind of want that blurs every line they've ever drawn. But it's 2012 in small-town California, and girls like them don't get happy endings - especially when they're headed to rival colleges, destined to face each other across the net for years to come. From heated locker room encounters to cross-state booty calls, from the pressure of D1 volleyball to the weight of unspoken feelings, Briar and Campbell navigate a decade-long game of push and pull. Because sometimes your greatest rival is the only person who truly sees you. And sometimes the hardest shot to make is the one that could win you everything - or cost you the only thing that matters. ── .✦ Enemies to lovers • Forced proximity • Rivals to lovers • Sapphic romance • Sports romance • Touch her and I'll kill you • Obsessive love • Second Chance romance

In ancient Kemet-where gods still shape fate-two powerful souls are set to collide. 𝐙𝐚𝐡𝐫𝐚, the Pharaoh's radiant and feared daughter, is worshipped as the Gem of Egypt, a woman touched by the very light of Ra. Beautiful, untouchable, and dangerous to desire, she has never bowed to anyone-mortal or divine. She embodies the strength of a goddess, unknowing of her full potential. 𝐈𝐤𝐚𝐮𝐡𝐨𝐫 is her opposite: a rising Tahtib warrior of brutal, inhuman strength, rumored to carry the shadowed power of Anubis. Born from dust and battle, he is disciplined, deadly, and utterly unafraid of the crown. Coming from a background of dark untold secrets, yet to be unveiled.. When Ikauhor conquers the arena with godlike ferocity, the Pharaoh commands him to take on a forbidden duty: 𝐆𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐙𝐚𝐡𝐫𝐚. Their hatred is immediate. Their attraction, undeniable. Their souls-ancient echoes of sun and shadow-recognize each other before their minds do. Unaware of the sacred bond Ra and Anubis had made centuries before, where fate brings them together. Zahra sees Ikauhor as a threat to divine order. Ikauhor sees her as a sun-blessed tyrant who could burn the world-or him. But prophecy whispers of a union powerful enough to either restore balance to the gods... or plunge Egypt into chaos. Bound by duty yet pulled together by fate, Zahra and Ikauhor must confront the truth: Their desire is not merely forbidden- it is cosmic, dangerous, and capable of shaking the empire to its core.
