He is a beautiful monster. She is the light that should've never crossed his path. Donnica Smith is chasing her dreams. Beautiful, ambitious, brilliant, and dangerously naïve, her future is full of promise and untouched by darkness. Until one reckless decision changes everything. She never expects her graduation thesis to lead her into the deadly trap orchestrated by Antonio Caruso, an infamous and ruthless Italian mafioso with a soul as cold as his beautiful stare. A man feared across continents. A man whom she regrettably chooses to be her muse. "I'd love to visit Tuscany someday..." she whispers absentmindedly in the interrogation room. And somehow, in the end, he takes her there. What starts as academic research spirals into a nightmare of captivity, seduction, and a game of survival. Donnica holds the key to Caruso's freedom, and he to hers. But at what cost? Dangerously Unusual is a dark romance where love is a weapon, obsession is survival, and trust is the most dangerous game of all. All Rights Reserved.

Dawson is- most people who don't know him would say- as straight as they come. And senior year away from home promises to be a big year for him: no parents in sight, a whole new set of friends, he just seems to have it all. Not to mention that all the pretty girls of the very private Wharton High are dying to get a taste of the new talk of the school. If only he could get Adam Hamilton's eyes out of his head. * "He dislikes him so much he is annoyed by the mere sound of his breathing. He dislikes him so much that he can't bring himself to ignore him; that even the way his stupid glasses perfectly sit on his symmetrical nose exasperates him; and his ridiculously blue eyes that take different shades of blue based on his mood and now Dawson knows that apathy is the ocean whereas rage is a starless night sky. And his jawline looks like it was sculpted by the hands of Michelangelo, but he dislikes him so much he can't look at his face without feeling his cheeks flush in anger. Truth is, Dawson dislikes him because Hamilton did something that no other person- despite their best efforts- ever managed to do. He made him feel weak."

Elijah Rosen, an introverted seventeen year old with a love for football, sneaks out almost every night to get away from the problems he faces during the day. He feels like his anxiety is taking over his life, and the only place he can go to escape it is the pitch black night right outside his window where he can be alone and let his thoughts run wild. But after he finds Adam Chang sitting at the bottom of an empty pool in the early hours of the morning with puffy red eyes and bruised hands, he begins to find comfort in something other than the dark. Only, Adam has a few problems of his own. And with pressure coming from his family, his friends, his school, and his own mind, Elijah isn't sure how he'll make it through the year. ------- "I think if you weren't here, I wouldn't be okay. I'd..." I trailed off, not wanting to say the words that we both knew were true. "Hey," he said softly, "I'm just glad I'm here, then." He started to let go of me, but I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him like I never had anybody else before. "I'm glad you are too." (featured by FreeTheLGBT: 1/13/2022)
