Brenda Barrett is not ready to die yet. There is still so much she wants to experience in life. She wants to grow old with the man who loves her, and have his children, and watch them grow up. Her wish is granted and she is given a second chance at life, but she is unprepared for the consequences. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sound familiar? That's because it used to be up on wattpad as 'Second Chances' by lanixo. Turns out lanixo plagiarized the story 'Second Chances', She copied the story Circle Dance (a General Hospital Brenda and Jax fanfic) which was written by Jan and claimed it as her own. She only changed the characters names. Circle Dance is also based on the original novels : That Other Katherine by Linda Lael Miller and On the Way to Heaven by Tina Wainscott DISCLAIMER: 1). This is not my story, I'm merely putting it on here since a lot of readers loved it when it was up as 'second chances', it's a good story that deserves to be read and not tucked away in a secluded spot on the internet. 2). ALL credit goes to Jan. Without further ado.... Circle Dance. Enjoy

(@Eman_Othman) ** "One of the most lovely stories that I have read so far on this platform. It's perfect." (@Luxami) ******************* Catherine Rogers found it hard to reject her best friend's brother, who was set on winning her over. He embodied everything she hated in a man, pushy, shallow, and selfish. But, Taylor and she had been friends for over 10 years, and Catherine's constant rejection of him was putting a strain on their long term friendship. Moreover, Catherine's heart was already fluttering for someone else: the endearing stranger she meets on the bus. He was kind, patient, and charming. She didn't even know his name, yet there was just something about him that made her swoon. When this mysterious stranger disappeared, she was left with an aching heart, and nothing more than sweet memories of a man who made her smile every time they met. She feared she would never see him again. Until one day, the most unexpected thing happened. --------- A biiiig thanks to all those who loved, voted and commented on Catherine's story. I'm taking the story down from Wattpad because I'm working on publishing it. It's hard work, but it would be a dream come true, please cheer me on. Thanks again for all the love and support! ^^ #42 in chicklit 13th Nov. 2017 Text Copyright © 2017 by Oluwaseun Agunbiade

He was powerful. He was terrifying. Said to be cruel and unjust. Terrifyingly possessive. He had the world, but to him she was his world. There was nothing he wouldn't do for his miraculum.

"Why are you getting upset?" he asked. "Because everything is different now. Call it my lack of emotional intelligence, but I can't stand you!" "What's different?" "Everything is. You know everything. You're holding the key to the world just above my fingertips." "What?" "You know exactly what I mean." He rubbed his eyes with his hand. "If I'm doing that, it's only because I'm giving it to you. I'm not against you, and I don't know why you think I am. This was supposed to be a peace offering." "I don't want peace. I just-" I couldn't hold back my tears any longer. "I just want everything to go back to the way it was." "Before me?" I nodded. Amanda Jayne is a sports-loving, change-resisting math enthusiast.

Can they learn to coexist, or will their different points of view drive them apart? Rewritten version completed July 14, 2020

“Don’t say it, don’t ask it, I wouldn’t be able to say no,” he whispered, his voice full of desire. “I can’t…we can’t…not yet, not now.” He lifted my chin slowly with his finger again. His eyes almost pleaded with mine to ask him and not ask him in, but the smart logical thing to do would be to wait - not complicate this even more. Not while there was still risk involved. * Sonja Winters has finally been able to start picking up the broken pieces of her personal life with the help of therapy after leaving an abusive ex.

2016 WATTY AWARD WINNING CHEATER, FAKER, TROUBLEMAKER SEQUEL Written by Jenny Rosen & Kristen Maglonzo For rehabilitated bad boy, Elias King, falling in love again means losing everything--including his life. When a ghost from his past tears him away from the good girl he gave his heart to, it stops beating--literally. Seconds after he flat lines from an intentional overdose, the doctors bring him back into a world without her.

After publishing a series of unsent love letters to the elusive Alex Summers, an unexpected rise to fame sends Elias back to Hollywood where him and Alex's story began. But time and tragedy change everything, and Alex has changed too. Now a freshman in college with a brand new boyfriend to boot, she's hoping to start life over without succumbing to memories of the loves she's lost in the past. But for Elias, old habits die hard, and when he pops out of the woodwork ready to take her back, she's determined to resist. But Kings don't back down easy, and when it comes Elias, trouble never looked so good.

After a late night fight between Alex Summers and her ex goes terribly wrong, her parents ship her off to spend a stress-free summer in Los Angeles. But the second she steps off the plane, Alex stumbles into California bad boy Elias King, a too-hot-to-handle heartbreaker with a taste for trouble. ***** When Alex and Elias find themselves stuck living under the same roof, their sexual tension's undeniable, but their differences set them on a warpath to destroy each other. Elias bets he can steal her heart and seduce her in thirty days, while Alex swears she can keep him one-night-stand-free and have him sober by the end of the summer. All's fair in love and war if you're playing by the rules, but this time around, there are no limits.
