At Preston High, Drew Daniels - known to everyone as "Double D" because of his initials - is the school's golden boy: charming, athletic, and annoyingly perfect. Meanwhile, Evelyn Ortiz, a sharp-tongued, hyper-organized overachiever with her trademark oversized glasses, has no patience for people like him. After a mix-up forces them to co-captain the school's academic charity challenge, Evelyn is convinced the universe is punishing her. Drew thinks she hates him for no reason. They can't go five minutes without arguing... but somehow they work better together than either wants to admit. As competition pressures rise, old misunderstandings come to light, surprising truths slip through their defenses, and the line between annoying rival and unexpected ally begins to blur. Evelyn learns there's more to Drew than his reputation, and Drew discovers that Evelyn's sharp edges hide a heart bigger than she'll ever admit. Now they have to decide: Are they destined to clash forever... or are they just one step away from something real?

Niemand ist perfekt. Doch als sie Theo das erst mal sieht, ist er genau das.

Jahrhunderts kennt. Helvis Herz wird sofort durchbohrt von Amors Pfeil. Doch schon bald merkt sie, dass der Kampf um Theos Liebe gegen einen Gegner ist, der mächtiger nicht sein könnte. Denn Theo hat sich entschieden Pfarrer zu werden. Eine Beziehung zu einer Frau ist ihm nicht erlaubt. Seine Liebe gilt ausschließlich Gott. Doch Helvi möchte das nicht akzeptieren

Bestfriends Forever. Just bestfriends that spoke like lovers.. and that seemed to be enough for two teenagers who were scared to love one another. Emilia (Emily) Winters and Tyler Cavill. The two have been unseparated since they're born. First steps together.. first sugarcanes.. first burgers. They do everything together. Tyler's explosive and so is Emily. Emily's a badass, and so is 'The King of River High'. And both? Truest impulsive-indecisive people. And oh-yes, the rules. Rules are never meant to be broken. Not for these two. But then high school happened. Or should we say.. love happened? Everybody knows how the two feel. During a ritual interrogation of each other's dates-abiding by one of their rules-Emily expresses her frustration at never having a boyfriend because all the boys ended up scared of Tyler-and her dad, technically-since the two are actually teaming up to steer away Emily from other boys. Frustrated by his bestfriends' dynamic, Wyatt makes a bet. If neither Tyler nor Emily ends up dating someone else by the end of the highschool, Wyatt wins, proving they're in love. Ruined friendships. Ruined principles. Another rule break. Another heartbreak. And so..

Lexy war ein sehr selbstbewusstes und freches Mädchen. Doch manchmal wusste sie auch nicht weiter. Besonders bei ihm nicht. Gerade als sie dachte, die alte Schachtel von nebenan war ausgezogen, kamen schon die Nächsten. Sie hatte sich definitiv mehr erhofft. Dieser eine blauäugige Schönling, stellte ihr ganzes Leben auf den Kopf. ☆ "Wieso hast du mich geküsst, Alec!? Sag's mir!", rief ich und schubste ihn sauer von mir weg. Erschrocken sah er mich an. Allerdings ließ er sich nicht von mir rum schubsen und packte mich an der Taille. "Weil du mir verdammt nochmal nicht mehr aus dem Kopf gehst", rief er verzweifelt zurück. ☆ ×Bin für Kritik immer offen, solange sie nicht herablassend gemeint ist:) ×Bei Rechtschreibfehlern entschuldige ich mich, aber mit dem Handy vertippt man sich einfach so schnell ×Ich nehme mir vor zweimal die Woche ein Kapitel zu veröffentlichen ×Wer Gewalt, Ausdrücke oder bestimmte Beschreibungen nicht verkraftet, entweder die jeweiligen Kapitel auslassen und um eine Zusammenfassung bitten oder das Buch nicht lesen:) [Start: 24.12.2018] [Ende: 24.02.2019]

Rules are there to be broken, right? Dominic Hunt never played by the rules. The campus playboy till the end of time. Half British heartthrob. Hitter of the Year. Classic Car maniac. Rockstar. Ruler of campus. His life was predictable-a never-ending carousel of parties, hookups- Dominic Hunt was untouchable, unbeatable, and utterly unbothered. Until the day he bumped into.. Renata Paradis. Renata, a half blooded French Birkin Princess-or should we say.. ✨Birken Princess✨ Her sharp tongue that could cut him down faster than one of his home runs, she was everything Dominic wasn't: grounded, ambitious, and *almost* unimpressed by his charm. A whirlwind of clashing egos and late-night rehearsals. The pair couldn't stop bickering, couldn't stop pushing each other's buttons, and couldn't deny the electric tension simmering beneath it all. Love, rivalry, heartbreak, and a pressed leaf that tied it all together. What happens when the campus ruler meets his match? Will they end in harmony-or will their duet end on the wrong note? From enemies to duet partners. From rivals to something more. Welcome to the story of Renata and Dominic-two hearts fighting a battle neither of them realized they'd already lost. "Too bad. Thought we could be something, love." "Not even in your dreams." "In yours, then." 🎖️ ACHIEVEMENTS 🎖️ #2 rules out of 6.48K stories #3 rulebreaker out of 893 stories #15 richkids out of 4.07K stories #12 tsundere out of 4.51K stories #18 feelgood out of 5.22K stories #16 rival out of 2.85K stories #2 makeover out of 2.0K stories #18 tomboy out of 5.64K stories #29 fakerelationship out of 4.56K stories #39 enemieswithbenefits out of 5.74K stories #9 richboypoorgirl out of 1.24K stories #23 onenightstand out of 6.99K stories #11 cinderella out of 9.4K stories #10 cliche out of 19K stories 🏁COMPLETED🏁 📅 Date: 24 01 25 / 24th of January 2025 📝 Word Count: 79.155 👩🏻❤️🧑🏻Character Visualization👩🏻❤️🧑

Completed • First Draft - not edited. || "You gonna sit there all night?" Luka glances at me, smirking. I glare back. "I was enjoying the last few seconds of peace before having to spend an evening pretending to like you." "That's funny," he says, unbuckling his seatbelt. "Why?" I snap. "Because I was thinking the same thing." || The rules? Easy enough. 1. Pretend to be the perfect couple. 2. Keep it professional. 3. And whatever you do, don't. catch. feelings. Simple, right? Sofia Calloway never planned on going viral for throwing a drink in Luka Mikhaylov's face. But one video, one pissed-off hockey star, and one furious university later... she's suddenly stuck in a fake relationship with the guy she can't stand. He needs to clean up his image before the NHL draft. She needs the free tuition that comes with the deal. All they have to do is smile for the cameras, hold hands at the games, and act like they don't want to strangle each other. Then come the late-night arguments that last too long. The stolen glances that feel too dangerous. The moment where "pretend" starts looking way too real. Because when you break the rules, someone's bound to lose. And this time, it might be both of them.
