Wattys 2018: Longlist Niccolò Romano. His name is a threat. Everyone that has ever crossed him has ended up dead. He is a killer, a gangster - a monster. And his enemies will do anything they can to hurt him.

This novel is an adaptation of Beauty and the Beast. Blind since birth, Elle Duncan has only ever known darkness, but lack of sight has never hindered her ability to perceive the beauty of the world. Her kind and gentle soul is put to the test when her father sustains an injury that threatens their livelihood, and in desperation, he turns to the most unlikely of saviors-the Rossetti Beast. Don Rossetti is bound for an unchanging fate. He is bad-tempered, with an equally dark and scarred countenance to match. With a heart forged of ice and a soul confined to darkness, he has surrendered to a forlorn existence. But when a peasant man arrives from the village begging for a favor, he is compelled to aid the farmer in exchange for a price-a price that Elle will be forced to pay.

Indie is a college student, born and raised in Delaware and trying to find a new life in the small town of Whiteoak, Colorado. She is intelligent, witty and keeps to herself. She may sound average, but she's far from it. With the curse of telepathy, the voices of others thoughts she hears around her never seem to stop, causing her to isolate herself from those around her. When she moves to the small town, she expects everything to be normal - she will finish her schooling, work in a cliché diner, and live her life as planned. However, when Indie meets Thaddeus, everything changes. He is strong, mighty, angry, and notorious for his ruthlessness. Although he never yearned for a mate, Indie's charismatic aura was much too strong to ignore. Indie's stubbornness is as tough as a padlock, but Thaddeus is determined to break in. *pictures used are not mine, no copyright intended *wonderful cover by: xxarachnidxx *inspired heavily by True Blood *story mentions some topics that may be disturbing/ triggering to others: sexuality, self-harm, graphic violence, and adult language. highest ranking: #1 in YOUNG ADULT #17 in ROMANCE #1 in STRENGTH #1 in WEREWOLF #2 in SUPERNATURAL

Copyrighted 2014 #1 in Teens ~In the process of rewriting~ ~CHECK OUT THE REWRITE, its written far better~ Seriously the writing in this one is SO bad. "I will always protect you, Roza." Having a normal childhood was completely foreign to the two polar opposites Rosalyn Summers and Rex Turner. Both grew up with terrible pasts, both lived harsh lives, until now. Rosalyn was always the shy, quiet girl, always. Cliché in a sense, I know, but you can't necessarily blame her. Being forced from the only parent you ever knew as a child, only to end up in countless numbers of foster homes until you were twelve, would do that to anyone. Rose grew up believing that everything was her fault, that she was always the one that needed to say sorry. But not with Rex. Not with the boy she has had a crush on since before her family found her. The boy who swears to protect her at all costs. The boy she has fallen completely in love with. Rex's anger problems always got him into trouble, always. Until the little sweet-hearted Rosalyn Summers came bouncing into his life. He suddenly found himself doing anything he could to be with her, to talk to her, to protect her. It didn't take him long to realize that he had completely fallen head-over-heels for the clueless, adorable, defenseless girl. But with a few bad choices on his part, and the ever present fear of hers', will the people from his past threaten to take her away from him? Or will the people from hers' decide to do that instead? These two soon found out that they aren't as complete opposites as they thought. -Warning: This story has a few possessive, controlling men, sorry if you don't like that. ~follow the instagram page! @day_dream_1011 ~

Levi has always thought that the best way to instill discipline in someone is through pain. But what happens when his usual methods have some unusual results? Or An incredibly explicit and smutty Levi X OC story focusing more on the BDSM scene. Mild plot. Very mild. If you squint you can see it. I think. I'm sure it's there somewhere.
