"I want to love. I want to feel safe in your arms. I want to let my guard down. I need to be happ-" "Then why don't you?" Gianni shouted hurt and broken by the woman in front of him. "What if you hurt me like Mark and Oscar did?" Anya asked as she stared at this man, a man she knew deep down that she loved, a man she knew she was too good to her. "I'd never hurt, let alone do what those two pigs did to you! You don't understand what you do to me Anya. I love you beyond words, I've loved you from the first time I saw you. When you came into my office asking for a job and handing me your resumé I knew you was special. I love you Anya, but I love myself enough to know that I can't do this." Gianni cried out in pain as he held Anya's face in his big hands. Crying too he wiped her tears with his thumb. Letting go off her face he held her chin with his index and gently kissed her lips. "Goodbye Anya." ***** Anya Jones is a rape survivor who is often busted by the demons of her past. Unable to get through it by herself she finds comfort in the arms of her boss, Gianni De'Luca.

"So, what, you think I wanted to fall in love with you?" he asked with his gaze super glued to hers. With a thoughtful look in her eyes, Denise shrugged. Mark lets a scoff, "have you met you? You are loud, outspoken, a smart ass, a hot-head, you do before you think, you're attitude stinks, you -" "I'm all these things," she took his facts like a champ. "Yet, you've fallen in love with me." "Yeah," Mark nods, unremorseful "Yeah, I have. I love that smart mouth of yours. I love it when you're pissed; I love that you don't take shit from anyone else or even me. That attitude can be a real pain in my ass but," he shrugged, "you wouldn't be you without it." Denise was so flattered, she looked away, fighting the urge to smile and feel. Lately, his compliments gave her butterflies. Yet, at the same time, it made her feel like she was getting punched in the gut. She knew this was going to happen - it was inevitable. You spend so much time with someone you're bound to fall. The problem isn't that Mark had fallen in love with her. Or that she had feelings for him too. The issue was that Denise had never loved anyone before, let alone a guy. She had to like guys to deal with them, but love? Selfless, sincere, real love was something she wasn't even sure she possessed. What if she couldn't give to Mark what he was evidently willing to give her. It would be different if she didn't care about him. Mark was different than the other guys; he mattered to her. If there was any guy she didn't want to ruin things with, it was him.

[I initially wrote this in 2017, but I am doing a big re-write in July of 2021, I hope you enjoy the updated version!] Bria is a straight A student in high school, who at 17, is faced with the responsibility of taking care of her younger brother, balancing school..and social activities. Christopher isn't as much as a star student, he's not great when it comes to school, but he's a social butterfly and popular with girls. After being assigned as permanent partners in a class, the pair (who aren't very fond of each other) find themselves growing closer over a rumor, a fake relationship, and their common struggle with abuse and family issues. When they're both faced with deep, dire situations, they look to each other for help. [UNDER EXTREME EDITING]

To the rest of the world, Sierra had the perfect life. Straight A's, a wealthy family, things many people longed for. However behind the scenes, things weren't so perfect. When her home life becomes unbearable, she seeks refuge with her close friend, Reese, and his welcoming family. Whilst staying in the same home, Sierra and Reese grow closer than ever- when eventually, their feelings change. - All characters are 18 and older

♠VOL 1: Book I in the FORBIDDEN series♠ ♤♠ "I don't date," I told him with a smile. "Why not?" He was smiling back as if what I was saying was the most interesting thing ever. I honestly don't know why we're talking about this. I shook my head. "Because I'm not allowed maybe?" I shrugged. "I don't have time for that anyway." I started writing again. "Well that's something you don't hear every day," he teased and I shook my head again, suppressing a smile. ♠♤ She's seen him around plenty of times. He never sees her. Then on the first day of a new school year, there's a run-in, a very short exchange of pleasantries, and on top of that, a class that's grouped by twos. Maybe some things were meant to be. For a while.
