"The Underboss and His Obsession " ۵ Amara grew up knowing two things in life: her mother knew best and would do whatever it took to protect her daughter from the real world--including keeping her sheltered. She always imagined a normal life beyond the walls of her home, and decided the only way to achieve that was to take matters into her own hands. Now, having experienced the taste of freedom under her wings, Amara suddenly finds them clipped again when she becomes a witness to a crime that lands her on the radar of a dangerous mobster named Salvatore Romano. Like anyone with common sense, Amara feared him more than anything in the world. She had every right to. He was no prince charming but rather the monster to be slayed before the happily ever after. Beneath his irresistible looks resided a twisted, cold reminder--she should have listened to her mother. Yet, despite knowing his true colors, Amara finds herself stuck on a haunting realization scarier than the man who can't seem to shake her out of his unhinged thoughts and refuses to let her go even at the expense of his sanity and thirst for vengeance. It was the realization that she would do anything for him...and she means anything. Because there are no boundaries when it comes to obsession. There are no limits when it comes to love. ✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄✧ "You would do anything for me, right, princess?" He asks softly. Slowly, I nod my head. Pressing a kiss to my forehead, he reaches into the back of his slacks then places the gun in my palm. "I want you to kill him."

"What do you mean they're 𝘨𝘰𝘯𝘦 ?" I ask, feeling like my world has been slowed to a stop. I feel like she's not even making sense. This doesn't make any sense. We just talked to them. "They're not gone. They said they were going home." The third installment in Ice.

"I'd give it all up for you, Avery," Finn urges. His hands are gripping onto my cheeks and I don't know why I'm letting him get so close to me when I told myself I wouldn't let this happen. All I know is that I could cry at his touch. I miss him so much. "The job, the team, everything," he continues. I swallow the lump in my throat as my eyes dart between his. He seems so desperate and I want to sock myself in the jaw when I'm tempted to wipe the single tear that fell to his cheek. "Because I've seen what it's like to live without you. I know what it's like to see you with someone else, and nothing is worth that. Not even the NHL." The sequel to Ice.

"It's kind of ironic, you know? My life has always revolved around being on ice. It only makes sense that I met the girl I love after she slipped on the only patch in the parking lot."

"HE THOUGHT HE WAS ALONE. BUT IN HIS DARKEST IMAGE, SHE WAS ALREADY THERE." In 1943, Hogwarts receives a transfer student from Koldovstoretz, the oldest and most obscure school of magic in Eastern Europe. Her name is Alevtina Vasiliyevna Koldova ── pure-blood, heir to the founder Vasiliyzia Koldova, and a direct descendant of one of the school's four original houses. Raised under the tutelage of cold and severe parents, Alevtina was shaped to command, not to adapt. Trained in ancient rituals and raw magic, based on blood, silence, and control, she had already reached a quiet position of power within Koldovstoretz, manipulating groups of students, building alliances, creating influence. But Russia was too small. And now, her eyes are set on the West. Alevtina transfers to Hogwarts with a single purpose: to expand. She didn't come to learn. She came to observe, conquer, and dominate ── slowly, like one who poisons a well. It is there that she meets Tom Marvolo Riddle. Another prodigy, an orphan, another threat. The two share the same vision of the future. A new wizarding world, built on pure blood and absolute control. But there is only room for one at the top. Between rivalry, tense silences, veiled control, and strategic distrust, an inevitable tension arises. Enemies to something else. Perhaps power. Perhaps ruin. Perhaps both.

What is birthright? Perhaps it was written in Natalia's fate to be reaped for the 69th annual Hunger Games. She was born so closely into the violence that tainted her whole world that it was only fitting to die as closely.

Juliette River of District 4 had been celebrating a milestone-the last year her name would be tossed into the reaping bowls. The relief had been sweet, her smile unshakable, until the unthinkable happened. Her name was called. The joy in her chest vanished, replaced by a sinking dread. A finnick odair story!

When the son of Voldemort himself gets pulled away from his daily life and into the wizarding school, better known as Hogwarts, he meets four boys who will have a great effect on his life. (this will most likely be updated as we go) This story is centered around the fancast characters, including some of the original characters of the Harry Potter world. Contains no romance or love interest.

When certain events intervene with her trust in her family, Valeria begins to notice things the press failed to. As more and more clues emerge from the shadows, as more people become apart of this mess, Valeria makes it her mission to get to the bottom of all the lies she's grew up with. Secrets. Deception.

The love interest is violent, and the stereotypical Made Man, meaning this book will have non-consensual relationships, where the male lead is quite literally the incarnation of the devil himself.
