(COMPLETE) Artemis 'Tammy' Samaniego is smart, sharp, and stubborn. A top scholar at the prestigious University of Saint Raphael, one of the most respected schools in the Philippines. She's always at the top of her class, a well-respected officer in the Accountancy Department, and a promising future CPA. Above all, she values integrity-and never backs down from what she believes is right. Antonia 'Nia' Marie Vasquez is the 'Queen Bee'-once the pride of the Banking and Finance Department, known for her quiet influence and commanding presence. But then she vanished. Now she's back, more mysterious than ever, and no longer the golden girl. As an irregular student, her return is full of questions, and her calm, calculated moves disrupt the balance. Their paths were never meant to cross. But when they do, sparks fly-and not the sweet kind. Arguments. Mind games. Power plays. And yet, beneath it all, something dangerous begins to bloom. Will Tammy uncover the truth behind Nia's disappearance? And will Nia be able to tame someone who refuses to be controlled? Warning: This is a medium burn story. This is not edited yet as well.

While being chased by her abusive boyfriend, Lyla turns the tables, shoving him into the path of an oncoming car. But rather than calling the police, she and her friend, Jack bury the body deep in the woods. Instead of finishing her senior year in peace, Lyla is horrified to discover that her dead ex has returned for revenge. This genre-bending supernatural thriller weaves elements of murder mystery, romance, high school drama, humor, and, of course, a terrifying ghost story. (Excerpt from "Her Terrifying Love") Jack's chest heaved. "You said he was dead." Lyla inched closer and whispered, "He had no pulse!" "Maybe he was just stunned." "We carried him all that way," she said. "He wasn't breathing." "But maybe he woke up after we left him down there." "Woke up?! His neck was broken." Jack hung his head. He couldn't make sense of this. "I know how this is gonna sound, but..." He choked on his words. "When I went to pick up my car from the body shop yesterday, he was standing across the street. Watching me." "Who was?!" "Keenan. I swear to God." "No way," she asserted. "That's crazy talk. He's dead." "It was him." Jack nodded. "He had a frickin' giant tattoo on his neck." A shiver flashed down Lyla's spine. Jack confirmed what she'd been dreading. He'd been seeing the ghost, too.

She was never scared of heights. Avery Woodsen has spent years clawing her way up the political ladder. She's fought and sacrificed to get where she is; she's more than ready to see the fruits of her labor. Finally, it's her chance to get one step closer to her dream - one step closer to D.C., a shiny city just waiting for her. Her time at the California Attorney General's office has come to an end. She's sacrificed everything for this. She would sacrifice anything to keep it. But when the attorney general seems to be targeted by a gun-wielding coward, Avery finds herself in the crosshairs. There's no manifesto to give her answers, and no suspect to question. Her ladder has collapsed. Will the security team sent from Greystone Security be enough to keep her safe? Will the trained, handsome man forced to be her protective shadow be able to keep her away from danger? Or will her desire to move up in her career have too strong of a pull? Or is what's tugging her not her career at all, but Reed Sterling himself? Trust no one. Except him. - Featured on Wattpad's Dangerous Love Profile "Feature on Dangerous Love" Reading List (March 2022) - Featured on Wattpad's Stories Undiscovered Profile (April 2022) - Featured on NewlyWrittenBooks "A Little Less Talk and A Lot More Action" Reading List (June 2022) - Featured on Wattpad's Mystery Profile "Partners in Crime" Reading List (July 2022) - Featured on NewAdultReads "Classic Young Adult" Reading List (July 2022) - Featured on NARomance "Love in Action" Reading List (October 2022) (September 2023) - Featured on Wattpad's BadassReads Profile "The Dauntless" Reading List (January 2023) - Featured on Wattpad's NA Profile "It's Always the Butler" Reading List (January 2023) #1 in enemiestolovers - 12/12/22 #2 in newadult - 12/12/22
