At East Briar High, six teenagers are just trying to survive their own lives - grief, pressure, loneliness, expectations, and secrets they don't dare say out loud. Lyra, the quiet girl with too many feelings and a voice she's afraid to use. Blu, the exhausted guitarist carrying more weight than any seventeen‑year‑old should. Jade, the sharp‑tongued bassist who loves harder than she admits. Uche, the drummer who hides his fear behind jokes and volume. Austin, the producer who sees music the way other people see color. Ski, the keyboardist who's spent years trying to disappear. They're strangers - orbiting the same school, the same hallways, the same pain - until the day everything falls apart. When the school's official band quits hours before the pep rally, the six of them are thrown together in a desperate attempt to save the event. What starts as a chaotic, accidental performance becomes something none of them expected: A spark. A sound. A beginning. Unofficially, that's the moment the band forms. Officially? It happens when Lyra convinces them to enter Battle of the Bands, where the grand prize is $100,000 and a record deal - the kind of money that could change all their lives. The kind of chance you don't walk away from. But forming a band is the easy part. Staying one? That's where everything gets messy. Between rising tensions, old wounds, new crushes, clashing personalities, and the pressure of the competition, the six of them are forced to face the parts of themselves they've spent years avoiding. They start as strangers. They become something like friends. And by the end - through the music, the chaos, the heartbreak, and the healing - they might just become a family. If they don't fall apart first.

🏗️WIP🏗️ The women of Dragnille are born to rule. Princess Saeloria has spent her life preparing for the throne-trained in fire, raised among warriors, and protected by the powerful family that rules the kingdom. But power has a way of revealing what bloodlines try to hide. When a moment of uncontrolled magic ends in death, whispers begin to spread through the palace halls. Something about Saeloria's power is... wrong. It isn't fire. It isn't water. It's something older. Something that hasn't been seen in centuries. As war gathers beyond the kingdom's borders and betrayal begins to coil within the palace itself, Saeloria will learn that crowns are not inherited-they are survived. And when everything she loves is reduced to ash, the world will discover that dragons are not the only creatures capable of rising from flame.

He's the billionaire heir who has everything. She's the scholarship girl who has nothing. I was content with my quiet life. I asked for nothing and expected even less. Then Adrian Hawthorne set his eyes on me. He decided I was his. His new project. His unwanted obsession. He says he'll ruin me. He promises to tear down my world until he's the only one left. What he doesn't know is that I'm already broken. And he might just be the one to shatter completely. A dark billionaire romance with a possessive hero, a "touch her and you die" vibe, and secrets that could destroy them both. "His to Ruin" is a standalone dark romance novel. It is part of the book series "The Hawthorne Legacy #1" ______ "I'm going to ruin you for anyone else, Lilia. When I'm done with you, the memory of my touch will be a brand on your skin. The sound of my voice will be the only thing you hear in your dreams. You will crave me. You will beg for me." My breath hitched, my entire body frozen in a state of horrified paralysis. He leaned in, his lips brushing against the shell of my ear, the contact sending a bolt of pure, unadulterated electricity through me. "And the best part?" he breathed, his voice a silken, venomous promise. "You're going to love every second of it." He pulled back, his eyes blazing with a triumphant, predatory fire. He had seen the flicker of response in my eyes, the traitorous shiver that had run down my spine. He knew he had struck a nerve. That was what finally broke the spell. Rage, pure and absolute, surged through me, burning away the fear. I yanked my hand back, my palm connecting with his cheek with a sharp, satisfying crack that echoed in the silent aisle. He didn't even flinch. He just stood there, a slow, terrifying smirk spreading across his face as he gently touched the reddening mark on his cheek. "There's that fire," he murmured, his voice filled with a dark, appreciative hunger. "I can't wait to taste it."

⭐ #1 in Sin, Lust, & Live ⭐ "Get back on the bed." Even though Adonis just fucked me, I'm intimidated, which is something I hate. I wrap men around my finger and leave them with hard-ons for a living. I'm Mistress, Baby Girl, Honey, I am whatever dream men want. Adonis sees right through it, past the facade I put up. I don't like it one bit. Especially coming from an asshole like him. This whole day he has stuck his nose up at me, acted like he is better than me when we do the same thing for a living. Our time on camera came to an end and as soon as I covered up, I was finished. The first thing out of my mouth is, "The show is done." "Well, I'm not," And with that he rips my robe in two from behind and throws me back onto the bed. I squeeze my legs closed, unsure if I'll be able to take him again after so soon. I can't deny that even with his temper and sharp-tongue, he's made me feel things I have never felt before. I don't get a chance to think it over because he forces my legs open and slams himself back inside me. Oh, Fuck.

Book 1 of (The Awakening Series) {#1 Supernatural} {#1 Paranormal} {#1 Lycans} {#1 Vampire Romance} {#5 Royalty} The world went to shit long before I was born. Humans like me use to believe other species were nothing more than fictional characters, myths, or figures of one's imagination. But that was before vampires left the shadows and decided to reveal their species to the world. I've been told that teenage girls use to fantasize about being swooshed off their feet by those mysterious creatures. Insane. Matter of fact, insane would be an understatement, they were fucking lunatics. Vampires are not some fictional character that would love you like no other. No, vampires are not some sort of myth, and they most certainly are not, a figment of anyone's imagination. They are very real, and they despise the human race. In fact, they have enslaved my entire species and formed a new world. Each continent is owned by a ruthless, bloodsucking, barbaric, the vampire king. Every single one of them has played a part in the war of the awakening, showing no mercy, killing without question. Humans didn't even stand a chance. Our army and world leaders were killed or imprisoned in less than a couple of days. They slaughtered my race, but it didn't stop there. No, that was only the beginning of human suffering. Trust me when I say the death was truly a kindness, because anyone who survived the awakening, would beg for death. I was positive that my suffering would come to an end when I turned eighteen. I was hoping and praying to be marked as a feeder, nothing more, nothing less. Death was the only way out of this world. You see, all of the kings who ruled over the earth were cruel and calculating. They are all tyrants in their own right and they all answered to one vampire. Who was known as the most barbaric of them all and I was marked as his chosen. The King of all Vampire Kings.

"I love you." I couldn't hide it any longer. Whatever the shit this clusterfuck would bring, I knew one thing. - She would be completely worth it.
