Forced to trade identities with a dead woman, Chara becomes entangled in a web of deception that would no doubt cost her her very life in the end. * Chara has lived all her life as a slave. But all of that changes in a tragic accident that brings to an end the life of many, including a woman named Rose Cartridge, while sparing Chara's life. Reeling from the shock of the accident, Chara discovers that the only way to be completely free from her slavery is to take on Rose Cartridge's identity, journey to London and take Rose's place in an arranged marriage to a man who thankfully never met Rose Cartridge before her death. * In order to win an election, Jeffery Hendrix must marry, but only temporarily, for the duration of the elections. So he strikes a deal with a man, agreeing to pay off his debt in exchange for his daughter's hand in marriage. But as the days progress and his feelings for the mysterious Rose Cartridge progresses along with them, Jeffery soon finds that his heart is not the only thing he stands to lose to Rose... ...he stands to lose her completely.

Was published, but is now off the market--I'm sorry! Brianne is the opposite of her best friend, Kyla. Kyla is open-minded; Brianne is closed off, judgmental. Kyla is a hopeless romantic. Brianne? Not so much. So when Kyla shoves an apple into her face telling her to throw it across the cafeteria so she can find her future love, Brianne is anything but interested. And yet she throws the apple anyway. Who does the apple hit? Dannon Barone, the most popular boy in school. Though he's seemingly sweet and all-smiles, Brianne dislikes him. She thinks he's a fake, a fraud, someone who is just charming the crowds in order to gain popularity. But Brianne is about to learn that stereotypes are not true, and that she's been too quick to judge those around her. Brianne Nichols' life is about to change forever. And what does she have to thank for it? A bruised piece of fruit. Who would have known that a stupid apple could be right? | technically not part of the summary | Okay, so I know the prenote says to find any errors you can. Just letting you know there's no point to that anymore because I've reedited it two more times after this one (extensively so), and already sent it in to be self-published. The only reason that the prenote is still up is because a fan made an amusing slideshow and if I edit anything then the tags for the wattys will be gone and I'll no longer be entered , hahah!

ENEMIES-TO-FRIENDS-TO-LOVERS Victor Manning has been infuriating Becka since she sat behind him in 7th grade English. He's cocky, self-centered, and obnoxious. When High School ends, the college dynamic slowly turns Victor into the one person Becka cannot live without. "The best slow burn I've ever read." YA/NA, for cursing. Set in the 1990s.

Bribed by her stubborn and terribly conceited self, Imani Ane agrees to be the personal maid of a creep whose family's a little too perfect. To the undeniably humble Ane, all's generally fine as she struts about the wealthy Campbell's residence and tends to its needy, frustratingly beautiful twig of a Master, but such mercy's bound to not last long── love is in the air with little to no patience, and so are the demons hiding in plain sight, always ready to pounce on any soul that disturbs them, even if they're Ane's own. Prepare yourselves for a wild, unforgettable mash-up of humor, psycho-thrill, and drama. © 2019-2021 Indigo Ivy Salamander / @indigosa All Rights Reserved ----- Featured in the 2022 @Wattpad Community Curator List for Hispanic and Latin American Heritage Month.
