She lay on her bed, blood seeping through her skin, a fractured rib. She knew there would be no doctor, no way for anyone to find out. She knew she would not be saved. From the outside, Isabelle Thompson had the perfect family. A protective brother, a hard-working father and a nurturing mother. Everyone knew who they were, and everyone knew they wouldn't kill a fly. But they had a secret, and big fat juicy one too. Isabelle was always quiet. She never spoke, she always wore dark clothing, and she had no friends. It was easier that way. No one would find out, no one knew her. Until a bright sparkle of Adam Black came fluttering into her life.

#StanfieldHeir4: Serena Steele Winter Serena Steele-- heiress to Stanfield Empire-- is the very beloved youngest of the Steele. Oh yes! She relished her fame and basked in her glory. But her childish heart secretly yearns for something magical-- a love that will lead her to forever. But no one is good enough for her brothers. They think men just want her for what she have and use her to climb up to a ladder and get to the top. And some men are not ashamed to show her that she was indeed coveted because of her title. She's tired of those kind of men. Weak, opportunist and coward. Might as well be an old maid than marry for convinience. But on her way to fulfill her promise to her brother, she journeyed in a far away farm with an abandoned castle and found a man who owned a heartbreakingly gorgeous face and a mysterious heart. Killian Draco DeVilla-- the Devil's son. Dark and dangerous. But brave. The man who makes her heart flutter. Can she persuade him without tripping her crown first?

After her relationship publicly explodes, physiotherapist Lucy MacKinley decides that the mature way to handle it is to run away from home. But in the remote town she's fled to, she finds that British heartthrob Frederick Asherton is not only filming a movie in town, he's landed himself on her exam table. Frederick is charmed by Lucy's "adorkable" combination of shyness and spirit, and affection quickly turns to unstoppable desire. But when the relationship gets serious, can Lucy stand living in the public eye, even if Frederick gets down on his knee and begs her to share his life? **NOTE: This story is intended for readers 18+ as it contains sexual content intended for adult audiences** Another note: I started writing this story early in 2014. At that time, the movie mentioned in this story was still just a book. I thought I was writing about a movie that wasn't real. I'm leaving it, though, because there are some movie-related bits of my story that I really like. I hope you do too!
