Aurora had loved Levi since she was twelve-quietly, hopelessly, from the safe distance of being her brother's best friend's little sister. Four years older and a world apart, he never saw her as anything more. Now, at twenty-two, Aurora has built a new life in Seattle. New city, new job, new version of herself. She's left that childhood crush behind. Or so she thought. Walking into her dream job at Meridian Creative Group, the last person she expects to see is Levi Hartwell-now her boss, still devastatingly handsome, and definitely noticing her for the first time. But some distances aren't measured in years. And some feelings refuse to stay buried. A story of second chances, growing up, and learning that sometimes the right person was there all along-you just needed to meet them at the right time.

Eli has been in love with his best friend for years. Mara is his favorite person, his player two, and the one secret he's never been brave enough to confess. Bonded by late-night gaming sessions and an unbreakable friendship, they spend most of their time escaping into their favorite fantasy video game-where heroes are fearless, and feelings are easier to hide behind a screen. But one night, the game pulls them in. Suddenly living as their characters-Eli the destined hero, and Mara the beautiful princess-they must complete the final quest together in a world that feels far too real. As danger closes in, Eli finally admits the truth he's been holding back: he's in love with her. Mara's answer isn't simple. She asks him to tell her again in the real world-where feelings can't be explained away as fantasy. When they return to school the next day, Eli has one choice: stay silent and keep her as a friend, or risk everything for something more. "Secret Girl" is a tender YA romantic fantasy about friendship, courage, and choosing honesty-both in the worlds we escape to and the one that matters most.

Years go by, Mei grows older and more sure of herself. By the time she turns eighteen, the lines Jian once relied on begin to blur. And the feelings he's kept buried for so long begin to feel harder to contain. What happens when holding back is no longer enough? And what happens if waiting means losing her?

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)

"This bounty is mine, Xander," He said. It was the first time I ever heard his name. Xander smirked, "Kill me first, then take her." He proposed arrogantly, a silver knife resting confidently in his hand. The man only nodded once as his hand slithered inside his jacket, pulling out another knife. "With pleasure." He finally said and stormed forward. ⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆ After her father died, Elora escaped her arranged marriage, leaving behind the only boy who had ever shown her love. But in pursuit of freedom, she suddenly found herself being hunted by every bounty hunter in the seven territories. The strongest of them all would capture her for his own selfish intentions, and Elora would quickly learn the reason why she was so valuable, who was an ally, and who was not. ⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄ Please do not get scared or bored by the first chapter, trust me, it will pick up after that;) Book One of The Mile Man trilogy. Book Two is called My Willful Flame. Book Three is My Charred Grace This story contains violence, some sexual scenes, and strong language. This is a slow burn, with emphasis on slow. If you will give it patience, the story will be rewarding later, or I hope it does. It has a lot of focus on the plot, so this is not where you will find your smut, although I do not judge even slightly. There is sexual scene, however, that is later, when the plot has been established. Dive in if you dare. ⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄ Promoted by the Stardust community and Magical community.
