When ambitious journalism student, Aurora Denver, starts a new job dancing at an unknown club hidden in the city, she thinks she's just trading her late night study sessions for quick cash and stage lights. But, the clubs emotionally unavailable, downright confusing owner, Harry Styles, is more than what meets the eye. A man with secrets buried in the shadows of the busy city. Drawn to his dangerous, charismatic charm, she finds herself torn between her dreams of education - the story that could launch her career - or fighting against her morals to protect a dangerous criminal. As the lines blur between love and betrayal, she finds the most dangerous stories happen to be the ones you become apart of. Deceit - where nothing is as it seems. Every truth masks a lie. Can you unravel the truth before anyone else? - "Are you gonna keep those lips shut for me, Princess? Or am I gonna have to make you?" He whispered tauntingly, leaning in closer to breathe cynically and I could practically hear amusement in his tone. I say nothing. Attempting to control my breathing and not break into deeper panic as my lips stayed sealed with his touch on them, slowly dragging the sensation down over my chin where he continued to smear the crimson blood. "C'mon, I know you're itching to talk back... or have I finally silenced you, hm?" He chuckled through his taunting. "Tell me Princess... are we gonna have a problem?" Slowly, I shook my head from side to side. It caused him to squeeze my chin, all of his fingertips now on me staining the imprint of his touch onto my face. He shifted his touch south, cupping the side of my neck and I squirmed against the wall at the feeling of his handprint on a sensitive area, his head moved away from my opposing ear to look down at me once again. "This is our little secret, yeah? I wouldn't want you to be the next one tied to that chair with your blood splattered on the floor." - Started: March 2024 Finished:

"How can you save me when you can't even save yourself?" Ian asked with a blank expression, all emotions void from his eyes. "Because I believe in you," I whispered, clenching my fists, fighting the urge to cry. - cover features Jed Hill

Logan Myers and her four year old daughter Rori have drawn the short end of the stick. Again. Four years after locking away the man that attacked both of them two short weeks after Rori was born, he's finally set free with Rori in his sights all over again. Logan isn't exactly sure what to do, but she refuses to let him get her daughter and that's where Stanford Williams comes in. Stanford Williams, professional MMA fighter and badass on the side, knows he should have said no when Landon Reece showed him Logan's case file and told him what was going on. He has a fight coming up in just a few months and doesn't need the distraction, but the second he meets Rori she worms her way into his heart with her mom following right behind her. Now all he has to do is make sure that the creep after the two of them doesn't get his hands on them, and he should probably convince Logan to return the feelings he has for her. 🚨MATURE CONTENT🚨 CHECK OUT "Character Reference" TO SEE WHAT EVERYONE LOOKS LIKE AND GET AN IDEA ABOUT THEM IN YOUR HEAD cover by @nophotoshop ❤️
