[SLOW PACED] Abused. But not broken. She lived a life of abuse for so long, that she could not imagine one without it. Yet she stayed silent, for she had to feed the evil to keep away the evil. Her strength lay hidden, deep inside, like the burning embers. But locked and chained. All that she needed was the key. An anchor. A hand to aid. ................................................................ Georgieva Michael was, to the world, like any other teenager. Sure she was quiet, and perhaps a tad shy, but introversion was not an anomaly. She had a loyal best friend, she had good grades, she was well off; that's all that matters, right? But what no one noticed was how she flinched at the barest of slaps, as friendly as they may be; they did not notice how rarely she spoke of her family; they also did not notice the thick pile of letters that stayed hidden in the corner of her wardrobe-each page scribbled with a thousand words of hurt, pain and anger. She never asked for a prince charming. She knew the price of letting people in. But he waltzed in, and made a promise: To stoke her fire into brilliant flames. 🥉Rising Star Contest 2020 🥇The Casia Flair Awards 2020 🥉Dark Nova Awards 2020 🥉Teen Queen Awards 2020 (General Fiction) 🥈The Virginia Awards 2020 🥉Society Awards 2020 🥈Psychological Novel Reads 2020 Cover designed with the help of stock photo from Pexels.

When the quiet girl in Clayton Hugh's chemistry class comes knocking on his door at five in the morning barely covered up in her little pajamas, inattentive, and drooling like crazy, he has no choice but to take her inside. But once Lucy Walker wakes up inside a room she has never seen before wearing an over-sized t-shirt and gym shorts, you can imagine the pure panic setting in her. The subtle addition of Clayton entering the room shirtless doesn't help much either. After three years of fawning over him, leave it up to her sleepwalking to finally get Clayton Hugh to notice her.

When Helena finds a phone on the night train, she decides to text the first number in the list of contacts in order to figure out who it belongs to. ***** Helena Santos hasn't had the easiest life. At twenty-one, she's the legal guardian of her teenage sister, in the final year of her nursing degree, and working night shifts at her small-town's local bar. And things get a lot more complicated when she finds a phone on the train home and decides to text the first number in the list of contacts, in hopes of tracking down its owner. That contact? Adam Bauer; the charismatic, sweet, and refreshingly honest older brother of the person who lost their phone. As the two continue talking, they can't ignore the chemistry and growing feelings between them, but life is never that simple. To make things work, Helena and Adam need to juggle a troubled sister, a meddlesome ex-boyfriend, and one fat lawsuit - all intent on keeping them apart.
