As the anonymous CEO of the biggest technology company in the world and sole Heir to the American mafia empire, she had buried the past in the same grave she had buried her heartbreak. She had moved on. Her four brothers hadn't. And it was going to take a lot more than them spewing out the same apologies she too had once offered, in order for her to forgive their everlasting betrayal.

The Bad Boy and The Tomboy is now published as a Wattpad Book! As a Wattpad reader, you can access both the Original Edition and Books Edition upon purchase. Nicknames, a love of soccer, and school rumors are all the bad boy and the tomboy have in common. But if they give each other a chance, will they find something more? ***** Seventeen-year-old Macy Anderson is a tomboy that plays soccer, hangs with the guys, can't stand girls (except her best friend Jasmine) and doesn't know who Sam Cahill is. But when the pair unexpectedly meet, everything goes downhill from there. Because Sam Cahill is the school's bad boy, known for skipping classes and getting into trouble. Not to mention his cocky attitude, British accent, and magnetic charm, which seems to work on all the girls -- except Macy, who has a rule not date in high school. But when Sam starts showing her his moves (on and off the soccer field), Macy begins to see a different guy under the leather-clad exterior. Will that be enough to convince her that he's the one guy worth breaking the rules for? [[Word count: 300,000 - 350,000 words]] [[2015 Watty Winner]] All Rights Reserved- ©nikki20038

Anger. That's what everyone sees or knows when it comes to her. But she's obviously more than that, isn't she? She is more than just aggressive or wild or harsh. She's strong and passionate. She's got light in her smile and love in her bones. Her way of showing it might be kind of violent, but she's a beautiful soul nevertheless. Whelved into the depths of her scarred flesh was that soul. Petrified to ever come out, not wanting to disclose its true nature. For once when it did...... she was damaged, broken. But when he comes along the way, with a broken heart of his own and snaps his fingers. Nothing is the same. Everything is sunshine, rainbows, butterflies and unicorns, almost orphic. This is just another love story. What were you even expecting?
