After having her heart broken by the boy she'd been in love with her whole life, Brimmy Somell decides to take a little...vacation. Little does she know, it turns out to be much more permanent than she had originally thought. After meeting tall, sexy, and mysterious Marcello Pietro, Brimmy finds herself having to make a life-changing decision and putting herself in a dangerous position she'd never imagined to be in. °•°●°•°●°•°●°•° "I love you." He says with no hesitation. It takes a moment for my hazy mind to catch up. I'm still in a daze, mesmerized by his perfections, and the deep dimple set in his cheek. I blink, "What?" "Don't make me say it again." He says, sounding frustrated, but I catch the hint of embarassment in his voice as he runs his hand through his hair and takes a step back. I grab a hold of the neckline to his shirt and yank him back within close proximity of me. "What if I want you to say it again?" I ask, studying his eyes. "Isn't it enough that I said it once?" He scowls, trying to pull back, but I restrain him from doing so. "Nope. Just say it one more time and I'll be satisfied." I state bravely, feeling a boost of confidence I didn't have earlier. He glances down, then looks back up into my eyes, allowing me to spot the vulnerability and uncertainty he feels. "I love you." He says, putting more strength in his voice than he looks to have. I grin, pulling him in for a kiss, but right before I do, I say the one phrase that will seal my fate, "I love you too, big, bad mafia boss." ••••• The story may be rough but the comment section makes up for it. ••••• Word count: 51,173 ••••• Written and published 2018-2019

#1.5 in the Learn To Love Series Tobias Anderson's take on the one event that turned his whole life around

Before there was a Cadence there was her mom Nicole and she was a wild one! Follow Nicole while she tries to navigate her 20's. Life isn't as easy as she thought. With love, one night stands, lust, lies, cheating, drugs, drinking, clubs, house parties, lost friendships, and losing herself after making a life changing decision that she can never take back, life proves to be harder then she ever imagined. If she knew her life would end up the way it did, would she have changed anything? "Yeah this isn't working for me." I say while getting off him. I start to put my clothes on when he grabs me and pulls me back on the bed. "Give me more time and I'll make you cum." He says while kissing my neck. "I doubt that. So no thanks." I push him back and finish getting dressed. "Are you kidding? You're just going to leave me hanging like this?" He says annoyed pointing to his dick. "I'm sure you can take care of that yourself." I shrug and walk out of the room ready to get out of here and wash that horrible experience off of me. I should have just left him a fantasy. This isn't your everyday romance/drama story. This story has mature themes, language, and is intended for mature readers!

Stephan was the guy who never thought he'd settle down. The guy who never fell in love. He used his charm and looks to have one night stands almost every night. His bed was warm at night but cold by the morning. His modeling lifestyle and travels allowed for him to keep his eternal bachelor alive. In this short story you'll get to know Stephan before Cadence. Before she changed his whole world. This short story will have lots of heat. I hope you can handle it.

Cadence leaves an abusive boyfriend after years of abuse. She wants to find love, true love, can't live without you love! Can she make it through the lust, lies, and betrayal? Follow her on her journey as she meets new people and loses people along the way. This story may contain emotional triggers!! "As I'm undressing I can still see marks on my body. They don't stand out like they used to. In fact if you didn't know they were there you would probably wouldn't even notice them. After I turned to water to the shower on as hot as possible without burning my skin. I step into the shower and cry. I wasn't crying over Trevor anymore. These tears were for me. For the little girl who lost her dad, for the teenager who lost her mom, and for the adult who lost herself. It felt like the water was washing all the sadness off me because after 15 minutes of crying, it stopped. The sadness was gone. I felt something in me that reminds me of the person I used to be.
