Moira King had been cheated on, stabbed in the back, and broken beyond repair --be it her father, her best friend, or her boyfriend; she's had enough. So, with that in mind, she gave up on the idea of finding love and opted to become a mother through sperm donation. That way, she could have a child, sans having to possibly bear another heartbreak. With the baby on the way, her life went uphill. Until one day. ---------------------------------- WARNING: the majority of this story is unedited and there are a lot of plot holes. This was the first book I ever wrote at 15 years old, and I don't agree with the majority of its contents anymore, so expect the worst. In fact, please don't even read it ✨ Cover: beingellie

I looked around thinking how a public school could be so cliche. I've been at a boarding school all my life and this is ridiculous. You got your jocks at one table and your geeks at the other. Typical " Hey watch where you're going!" spat a guy looking at me. " I was you egotistical bastard!" I retorted back. I stared at his frame noticing how much taller than me he was. He raised a brow at me and chuckled. I could hear the rumbling in his chest. Everyone was looking at us now. Great now an audience. " Excuse me?" he asked looking at everyone around us. " Did I stutter? No. Maybe you should get your ears checked. Now move out of my way!" I said pushing him, and walking away. Acting as if he owns the place. " Do you know who I am?" he said, making me turn around. I saw that everyone was giving me looks as if I did the worst thing in the world. " I'm sorry your highness, I don't. Bye bye." I turned on my heels and pushing through the crowd of people who seemed to enjoy the show. " You're going to regret this princess!" he yelled. I rolled my eyes at his remark. " As if," I mumbled to myself. Great for a first day of school. It went swimmingly. Cover created by: Flowerboys

What if you could make everyone you cared about fall in love with their perfect match, and live happily ever after? And what if the only person it wouldn't work on was you? Helena Morgan is a smart, sarcastic math student in her final year of MIT. She refuses to date, or to even get close to anyone male, and her friendships with her girlfriends have a bad habit of ending after a few months. But Helena isn't the hard person she appears to be. She has a secret; one that has made toughness necessary for her own survival. Helena creates fairytale happy endings, for everyone except herself. Every friend she's ever had has ditched her for their all-consuming new love interest, and the few times she's had boyfriends, they've suddenly found themselves head over heels for someone else... But the devastatingly hot new boy Joseph Moritz doesn't want to take no for an answer. The more Helena pushes him away, the more determined he is that they're meant to be together. She finds herself drawn into his world, one where his younger brother needs his protection from the increasingly bad people he's got involved with, and one where risks are a part of everyday life. She knows she shouldn't let herself get close to him, but something in Helena is aching to stop fighting. Is there a chance she might get to hang on to Joe, or will she lose him? And is it even worth the risk? The Cupid Touch is the gripping new story from Gytha Lodge, award-winning author of The Fragile Tower series. Available exclusively on Wattpad.
