She is sweet and lovely; he is abrasive and harsh. She smiles and giggles like a fairy princess; he sneers and mocks people like a jerk. Her laughter, good-mood and kindness of heart affect everyone and warm you like a mug of hot chocolate with pink marshmallows; his roughness and annoyed glaring, with his caustic words, irk and scare everyone and slap in the face worse than the cold stormy wind. She is bright and pure of heart; he is gloomy and a coward of heart. Apparently. Until the point Sergey Lebedev must finally confront the person whom he hates the most: himself. He will have to face his resentment for Anatoly Denisov, having to realize if it really is hate and not just anger and envy; the eternal conflicting, strained relationship with his cousin Sasha; the problematic, difficult bond with a very strict father; his own prejudices, and his true feelings for the sweetest and most beautiful girl Sergey has ever met. He knows she needs a real prince, for she is a princess in his eyes, and one day he'll finally decide the time has come to grow up. Viola Taylor never for once imagined Sergey could be someone she could befriend and be interested in, given his behaviour in school, his hostile attitudes and the way he addresses her: weirdo. Until, due to some circumstances, she sees him outside school, where the sneering mask slowly crumbles away bit after bit, allowing her to discover a completely, surprisingly different Sergey, who can smile at her bizarre stories and help in overcoming her fears and doubts. A heart-warming, cute, romantic story of love between sweet, innocent yet very intelligent Viola, who believes in fairies and has a heart bigger than her, and the apparently cold and abrasive as sand-paper Sergey, a bully in school in dear need of Viola's magic fairy-dust. An easy journey to their love? No, as there is no effortless journey when you must confront yourself and win over your fears, even if you have wonderful friends and understanding siblings.

River Kelley is smart, perceptive, almost calculating, with an alluring smile and irresistible eyes he always takes advantage of whenever needed. He knows how to play his cards and likes to feel desired, nonetheless he will never entirely open his heart and mind to anybody. The only exception is represented by his best friend Aleksandr -Sasha- Lebedev, who seems to understand him deeply. Yet, River has secrets even with Sasha, who constantly represented his only special person. Why can't he open his heart completely and admit his true feelings? What has driven him to guard himself and always use his attractive, playful smile as mask? Trusting another person can often bring pain and disappointment, and River doesn't wish to taste such bitter feelings once more. What will happen if he meets the only person capable of melting his guard and matching all he wants and needs in a partner? At first River might not be able to let go of his inner fears and ghosts, and it will take a courageous, rather controversial decision to make him open his eyes and be true to his feelings. Nicholas Lucas is very intelligent and attractive, playing his cards openly, without any secrets or regrets. With a sensitive, understanding, yet confident disposition Nic might be the only man River can completely love with all his heart; he might be the only one becoming the true special person, seeing beyond those irresistible eyes, discovering the secrets hidden there. But will it be possible for Nicholas to break the mask and wall River has built around himself? Will he be able to make the young man love him unconditionally with complete trust? It will take a strong act of love and selflessness, and Nic is ready to take the risk to conquer and keep River's heart, because he never gives up on what or whom he wants. And definitely he will never give up after having met River, for when those irresistible eyes glanced at him the first time Nic knew he wanted to see what was hidden beyond them.

"There is a charm about the forbidden that makes it unspeakably desirable" Anatoly Denisov, or Tolya, used to be a delinquent and member of a gang, as the tattoos on his skin testify. After leaving the gang, Tolya had to work hard to re-build his past relationships especially with his twin brother, Dima. Nothing was simple, but he realized how his family and friends were more than ready to give him a second chance. Oleg Azarov, personal assistant and bodyguard of Tolya and Dima's father, was the man that made Anatoly open his eyes and face reality through harsh and effective methods and bike races, the only common passion they apparently share. But something happened when following the duties. Oleg grew attached to Anatoly in a way he could not afford, as he could not develop feelings for someone 14 yrs younger, and especially not for the son of the man that gave him a new life. There is a line clearly marking duties and loyalty and Oleg is not man to cross it. Anatoly calls Oleg a "sadistic and scary bastard" and cannot stand the fact he always speaks of duties whenever he refers to him, but there is something he can't deny: the burning physical attraction he feels for that man. Yet, he totally refuses to listen to his desire. But what happens to this equilibrium when Anatoly, the forbidden fruit and sweetest temptation, decides that he wants Oleg and will have him no matter what? What happens when constant temptation is first offered unintentionally and then deliberately, slowly scratching the line marking borders forbidden to cross? What will happen when forgotten past comes back to taunt Tolya? Duties, desires, principles, remorse, lust, attraction, obligation, guilt, rules, forbidden, allowed, bike races, adrenaline, excitement, resolution, need, gangs war, possessiveness, unleashed emotions, uncontrollable feelings and love. The love you cannot resist, the love you cannot fight. All clashes and fuses and confuses in this story of forbidden love.

The story is NOT edited; I apologize for the problem, but I shall edit it as soon as possible. Jasper Lucas is a shy, sweet and easily blushing, 17 years old student who loves to skateboard with his friends and spend time with his best friend, Travis Henderson. He is gay and his family hasn't accepted the fact and treats him coldly. His older brother Nicholas, however, is proud of him and loves him dearly. Thanks to Travis and his burning enthusiasm and persistence, Jasper's life is now brighter and happier. Thanks to Travis, Jasper has met and made new friends at school, which all like him and call him "cutie". But, what comes next? Jasper has an incredible and huge crush on Dmitri (Dima, for his friends) and he doesn't know what to do. Jas is too shy and timid to take matters in his hands. Perhaps he needs some advices from Travis and his well-known dirty mind... Oh boy, what to do? Dima is completely straight and horses around with girls, never getting serious about any of them; he is an outgoing, funny and easygoing Russian guy of 18 years, which resembles a huge blonde bear. He loves to play ice hockey with his best friends, to snowboard and sometimes to skateboard. He loves "Star Wars" and so does Jasper, and that's how their friendship started. Dima likes very much Jasper and his sweet and calm side, he finds himself wanting to help the little kid when he sees him down or sad. Dima likes Jasper, but just as a friend. Or is Dmitri only terribly dense? What will take Dima to realize Jasper isn't just a friend? Maybe a push from his friends, especially River and Travis. Maybe an unexpected rival; a new classmate who likes Jasper and keeps trying to flirt with him. Did I say one rival? Oh, my bad. Two new unexpected rivals. Will all of this make the funny grizzly finally realize he likes the cute koala more than a friend? Cover designed and made by Azer90

NOTE: The story contains mature actions and issues. It tells about the love between two young men. The story is NOT edited, but I have begun with that, so please read the Author's Note CAREFULLY, thank you. How do fire and ice combine together? Meet Travis Henderson, sort of new student, blunt to extreme when he can't keep his tongue on a leash, extravagant, vain and cocky as a cat and afraid of nothing. Well, almost. Although with his looks it's very difficult to walk-by unnoticed, he wants to keep a low profile and prefers to stay alone and the company of his I-pod only. Oh, did we mention he is gay? Proud and loud, he would say. Travis knows no half measures when it comes to feelings; he feels a fire burning inside him and has to let it out. Travis must have the object of his interest no matter what, but fire can really burn and hurt you, even if you are its master. And what happens when you realize who you want is the only man impossible to have? Yes, Travis is like a burning and shining ball of fire. Meet Aleksandr Lebedev, half Russian half American, star of the ice-hockey school team. Being 6′3″ tall with a fierce and dangerously annoyed glare make him one of the most feared guys in school. And he likes to be feared by useless and annoying people, since he doesn't appreciate to be involved in others' business at all. Sasha is like the solid and cold ice on which he skates, and only his family and closest friends have a place in his glacial world and heart. That's all you will ever get from Aleksandr and mind well not to annoy him. There is ice in his veins and nothing else. How will it turn out to bump into a constant magnet for trouble? How fire and ice combine together? Will the cold ice extinguish the fire or will the burning and unpredictable fire melt the ice?
