"And rule number three, knock before you enter my room," I finished, moving my fore finger down with the instruction. His smirk widened as he leaned on my door frame. "What happens if I don't follow your petty little rules?" he asked. I narrowed my eyes. "You'll sincerely regret it," I warned but he merely grinned. "I take that as a challenge." Being the sister of Britain's most honored young scientist isn't something that Alex Simmons feels she can live up to. So, in protest of her parent's high expectations, she doesn't even try. That changes the day that she's forced to move in with her older cousin and his best friend to attend her final year of college. Living with one teenage male is hard enough, let alone a pigheaded,rebellious and drop dead gorgeous lodger. Asher Toms only has one goal and that is to reach the finals of his motorbiking championships. When Alex crashes into his life, concentrating on anything but his best friend's little cousin becomes increasingly difficult. As the pair grow closer through relentless bathroom battles, silly arrests and a set of rules to abide by, Alex figures out that there's a lot more to Ash than just a badass motorbike and a pretty face, some things in his past were meant to stay hidden. But what's a romantic adventure without a few obstacles?

"When I tell you that he hates me, you'll probably assume it's because he's a jerk...but you'd be wrong. He's not a jerk. I am." --- Several years ago tragedy struck Emma's home, leaving her broken... like a cup with cracks spiraling and slithering around the edges. Slowly, bitterness crept in like tar, hardening between each fracture to resemble a deceitful wholeness. She became a monster, and targeted her venom on the sweetest person she could find: Trinity Nixon. Too bad the boy Emma longed for was Trinity's brother. Now, as Emma fights to win the heart of the boy who despises her, she's forced to hide her demons. She paints her fragile cup in pinks, yellows, and oranges - all the colors of the sun. She paints on a smile, and an unusual sense of humor, so that the world will view her as bright and cheerful, when in reality she's breaking. But she's completely unprepared for the acidic truth that melts away the tar, demolishing her shell, and awakening the Emma White buried deep inside. --- Book 1 in The Dismantled Pride series *Story was previously titled "Faking It"

Sequel to The Bet That Broke Me, highest rank #18 so far in romance 1st Book~ The Bet That Broke Me✔️ & 3rd Book~ Following in the bad boys Footsteps Book one is currently under editing so I'd recommend not to read this one yet cause in order to understand it you'd have to had read the first book. I can not believe this is happening. I drop the files from my hands and they fall to the floor scattering everywhere. I stare at him in shock. He looks so different, so mature in his suit, and sexy as hell. He hasn't even noticed me yet though. Good, I bend down to grab the papers. "Damn It!" I curse I just spent thirty minutes organizing them for my new case. Oh but who cares about the stupid Papers, I can't believe he is actually here! It has been nine years since I last saw him. Nine years since the Bet. "Here let me help you." He speaks bending down to grab my papers. I freeze as our hands brush, same on stupid sparks. He stands up and my heart quickens. "Miss are you okay?" He asks me. His voice is so deep and it sends a shiver down my spine. I slowly stand up and our eyes meet. His eyes flash with surprise as mine did a moment before. His old cold eyes didn't show at all. This man is not the Aiden Parker I knew nine years ago. "Alison." He mutters still in shock. "Aiden." I mirror him. His eyes look over my body. I would say I have changed a lot since high school, I have matured gratefully. "Oh you two have met then? Alison this is the new owner of the law firm." My boss tells me and my eyes widen even bigger. You have got to be kidding me. Aiden Parker is my new boss.

***The Corner Booth Contest Runner-Up*** WARNING: contains one blue-eyed stranger, one fast-talking heroine, and a couple of scenes steamier than a mirage at noon. Throw in gigantic dust storms, lawmen out for blood, plus a wasteland to be traversed and you are in for an adventure sultrier than the desert sun! You would think May was living in paradise. After all, a gorgeous man just showed up on her porch willing to do anything she asks of him. But this is no paradise. May lives in a world settled by technology-rejecting idealists wishing to live in harmony with the land. That land, however, has not been very cooperative. The desert in the heart of the planet is spreading outward at an alarming pace, swallowing anything that gets in its way. And May? She's in its way, all right! Alone on her parents' dying farm, May has two goats, a shotgun, and a whole lot of dust. That's about all she has, until the day Ro shows up. Ro brings with him a secret most of their world isn't ready to face. The lawmen on his tail will do whatever it takes, including murder, to keep that secret buried in the desert sand. If they don't succeed in killing May and Ro, no matter: the desert might just do the job for them.

Is blood thicker than magic in La Nouvelle-Orléans? Tormented by the fate she condemned her mother to, and by the lies she's forced to tell to cover it up, Adele scours Storm-ravaged New Orleans for the truth about her family's magical past. But every turn leads her back to the one person she's determined to forget: Niccolò Medici. Not even the multitude of enchanted locks on the attic door trapping Nicco within can break their connection. Sensing Nicco calling to Adele, Isaac tries relentlessly to keep her from exploring paths too dark that would endanger them all. But a new threat is rising: the Medici's presence has attracted something else to New Orleans...an older enemy, one that will bring Isaac's haunted past to life, test the witches' friendships, and jeopardize Adele and Isaac's blossoming relationship. In this spellbinding continuation of The Casquette Girls saga, Adele must draw on the past-from seventeenth-century Florence, a time bubbling with alchemy and fraternal betrayal-and sort history from fantasy if she is to have any chance of saving her mother, her coven, and her magic. Book 2 in The Casquette Girls Series

After five failed lifetimes spent trying to beat fate, Ellie Blackwell's faith that things will be different this time is long gone. Her heart has been shattered one too many times and she's not prepared to let it happen again. Broken and beaten down, she has all but given up. Her's is a destiny that cannot be changed; she's accepted that now. But there is one path she hasn't tried before, one choice she's never made, one man she's never said yes to... Could he be the key to changing her fate? Or will burying her heartache in another just make everything worse? Surrounded by the same souls that have followed her for seven lifetimes, Ellie decides to forfeit her fight with destiny before it even begins. But ignoring your heart after two hundred years isn't easy; especially when the past just won't let go.

Mysteries will finally be solved and questions will finally be answered. And, with Ellie's eighteenth birthday rapidly approaching, she somehow needs to find the strength to fight for her life. But will she be able to take all she's learned over these past seven lifetimes and change her present enough to give her a chance at a future? Or is Ellie still cursed to have this lifetime end like the ones before? ***If you haven't read the other books in The Return Series, it's HIGHLY recommended that you start this mystery from the beginning.

Resurrected once again, Ellie Blackwell now knows that there is no way to fight her destiny; so she decides to run, hoping that a new environment will wipe her slate clean. But she should have known that fate wouldn't allow it to be that easy. The same souls that have surrounded her in the past still find her again and, despite her best efforts, she can't seem to free herself from them. Ellie is left with no choice but to begin solving some of the mysteries that have haunted her for four other lifetimes and to try, once again, to prevent her murder from happening on her eighteenth birthday. As we journey back and forth through both Ellie's past and present lives, she learns that she isn't the only one in her circle keeping dark secrets. Desperately struggling to fix things and somehow change her destiny, Ellie realizes that maybe you can't fight fate, perhaps she is forever cursed to make the same mistakes she's repeatedly made before. Again, a great big shout-out to @SoCamerShy for her amazing cover work! Check out her work...she's an amazing writer!
