cover by @summerafterglow 𝐆𝐚𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 It's so much easier to spread lies about people than it is to spread the truth. That's what Gabriel knows to be true, at least. According to everyone in his town, he's a monster. He doesn't deserve to be walking among the rest of them. That's far from the truth, though. He was never good at being alone, but it became something he was used to. After everything he'd gone through, he craved solitude. Until she showed up. She wiggled her way right into his heart and now all he craved was her. 𝐀𝐥𝐲𝐧𝐚 Moving to a small lakeside town in Washington was not where Alyna saw her life taking her. She also didn't expect that she'd fall so hard for the brooding mechanic who lived there. Everyone tells her that she should stay away from him. All of the rumors say that he's dangerous, but all she ever feels with him is safe. With obstacles at every turn, will their love be enough to endure even the worst challenge they'll face? Or will they fall apart under the weight? started: 12/15/2023 published: 05/18/2024 completed: 07/11/2026 highest rankings: #2 bwwm #4 ongoing

Bella Moore has spent her life running away from hockey. Growing up in a family obsessed with the sport, she watched her father, coach of the Boston Bruins, devote himself entirely to her brother Antony's career, while she disappeared into the background.

He is the NHL's most famous bad boy, a French Canadian enforcer for the Montreal Canadiens.

When their worlds collide, the rivalry between Boston and Montreal isn't the only source of tension.

❝𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐂𝐀𝐍 𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐃 𝐌𝐄 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐏𝐀𝐂𝐄 𝐁𝐄𝐓𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐍❞ ⋆ ˚｡⋆୨🌞୧⋆ ˚｡⋆ Once upon a time, 𝐑𝐘𝐀𝐍 𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐓𝐒 lost everything. The night her mother died, she lost more than just a parent. She lost her music, her laughter, and every piece of happiness she once carried in her heart. Desperate for a fresh start, Ryan moves from New York to Lakeshore, California, to live with the father she barely knows and the family he's built without her. But no amount of sunshine, therapy sessions, or new beginnings can erase the grief that follows her everywhere she goes. As she struggles with depression and the weight of her mother's death, Ryan finds herself trapped between who she used to be and the person she's becoming. Then there's 𝐁𝐑𝐀𝐃𝐘 𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 Lakeshore's golden boy. The town sweetheart. Rich, charming, and loved by practically everyone. The moment Brady lays eyes on Ryan, he's completely captivated. Maybe even a little obsessed. There's just something about the mysterious girl with sadness in her eyes and walls built sky-high. Unfortunately for him, Ryan's first impression involves slapping him across the face. Most guys would've walked away. Brady King isn't most guys. As Ryan learns to heal and Brady fights to break through the walls around her heart, they'll discover that sometimes love finds you when you're least prepared for it-and that moving forward doesn't mean forgetting the people you've lost.

Landing a job with the Los Angeles Lakers is everything Nylah Morgan has worked for. She refuses to let anyone stand in the way of the career she's built. Then she meets Malcolm Carter. The Lakers' golden boy. Jersey #7. The league's most celebrated shooting guard... and the media's biggest headache. He's talented, arrogant, impossible to manage, and completely uninterested in following anyone's advice-especially hers. And the one player who seems determined to test her patience every chance he gets. He's arrogant. She's stubborn. He's used to getting his way. She refuses to back down. As cameras flash and headlines spread, the world only sees Malcolm Carter, the basketball star. Nylah is about to discover the man they never write about. Off the Record.

"I hate how much I need you, Niyah..." From just enemies, to enemies with benefits, to lovers. I hate how much I want him. But I can't escape him. Why? Because we're lawfully locked. An office romance between rival lawyers who try to fight the tension between them until they finally give in. "You say you hate me but you fuck me the same day." *a lot of smut included*

They were just kids when they pinky promised under the monkey bars: "Best friends forever." Now? Forever feels a lot more complicated. Arielle Thompson has always been the quiet, bubbly girl with a heart too soft and eyes only for one person; her childhood best friend, Easton James. He's everything she's not: tall, tatted, effortlessly popular, and dangerous in all the ways that make her heart race. But no matter how many girls want him, Easton has always been hers... just not like that. Until now. Senior year hits different. Arielle's feelings are getting harder to hide, her crush turning into something deeper, needier. And Easton? He's starting to look at her like she's more than just his ride-or-die. More than the shy girl who always wore his hoodies and made him laugh since third grade. Maybe it's the way her body's changed. Softer, fuller, and way too distracting for his own good. Maybe it's the way she blushes when he calls her baby girl. Or maybe... he's finally seeing her the way she's always seen him. But crossing that line could change everything. And if they fall? There's no going back to just friends. Expect steamy tension, late-night confessions, possessive energy, and a slow burn that explodes into heat. Because sometimes, the boy next door grows into the man you can't stop wanting.

"I would die for her. I would kill for her. I would bleed to death for her if she told me to. I would bleed red. I would bleed any color she wanted me to for her."
