R A N K I N G S #188 ON THE HOT LIST FOR TEEN FICTION, JANUARY 4, 2018 #19: Taken #11: Archer #2: Hadley <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> "Hadley, open this door." Parker orders. "No." "Hadley. I'm not playing games with you." "I'm not playing games either, hotshot." "This door had better be opened by the time I get to three," Parker warns. "One...two..." Where Parker would say 'three', the door bursts open. I glare at him. "Was that really necessary?" I roll my eyes. Parker is fuming. "I'm not letting you leave because you are my queen. You are to rule this kingdom with me." With this, Parker crashes his lips onto mine. <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Hadley Starr is in for a deal of trouble when the new guy in town happens to be exceptionally attractive. The kicker? He's a prince looking for a suitor to bring him into the king's position. And he wants Hadley to be his queen. "Looove it <3" - @LolaSW "I literally can't wait until you update again!!

Her innocence was like a spark, igniting everything inside of him. She calmed the storm inside of him while he was busy causing havoc in her life. The urge to be around her all the time was overwhelming for him but the bet had already been made. Whatever started behind closed doors couldn't just end in there. See how a game of seven minutes in heaven changes everything. How it breaks a closet's shelf and a heart. [JUNE'15-]
