Now she's back - older, wiser, disguising secrets, and still haunted by emerald blue eyes that once promised her the world and destroyed it. Dominic De Luca is no longer the reckless boy she loved. He's the Don. Cold. Ruthless. Untouchable. With blood on his hands. But when their worlds collide again, secrets ignite, and enemies circle closer. She's the only weakness he can't afford, yet the one thing he can't seem to let go. A story of love, betrayal, and the kind of passion that can burn a city to the ground. ******************************************* Rankings: #1 under #badboy (06/02/2021) #1 under #action-adventure (29/11/2020) #1 under #sexy (20/11/2020) #1 under #truelove (16/10/2020) #1 under #action-romance (02/10/2020) #1 under #gangleader (23/09/2020) #2 under #gangster (24/06/2020) #2 under #secrets (20/06/2020) #2 under #badboy (09/06/2020) #1 under #mafiaromance (28/05/2020) #1 under #stronglanguage (28/05/2020) #1 under #sexy (16/04/2020) #2 under #lust (27/04/2020) #1 under #truelove (10/02/2020) #2 under #mafia (10/02/2020) #1 under #action-adventure (19/02/2020) #1 under #shooting (19/02/2020) #1 under #badboylovestory (19/02/2020) #1 under #mafiaromance (10/2019)

Highest ranking: #1 in Short Story *Rewriting and Editing on hold* It was a race to leave behind her toxic past, the past that demolished her image, her family, and her sanity. Moving and starting fresh was Leila's number one priority. She desperately sought to avoid the people that constantly reminded her that she was worthless, but never had she thought she would meet someone who made her feel things that she thought she would never experience. . . Extreme anger. After the night that two lives were taken right before her eyes, one of her brother and the other of a little girl, nothing for her has been the same. Being neglected by her own parents and being shoved to the side by friends, falling into depression and self-harm had forced the once extrovert into a dark abyss who chose to finish college in silence. However, after an unfortunate mishap on her first day of school, Leila is stuck sharing a dorm room with no other than Professor Kingston. To Leila, Blake Kingston was nothing but a narcissistic, intellectual spoiled brat who sought to make her life a living hell. However, beneath the surface Blake was more than that, he was a damaged little boy who moved away to escape his troubled past. He never planned to meet a young, stubborn woman such as Leila Hart, who barged into his life with no warning. He never planned to let her see right through his cold and distant facade. For Blake Kingston was the most caring and loving person anyone has met, and Leila Hart knows an empath when she sees one. Little did they know they were both two broken souls who not only needed healing from themselves but from one another. Little did they know they were going to be ROOMMATES. What happens when these two collide? Fireworks and lethal wounds.

~~~ Ryder's face turned angry as he pushed me back up against a wall. His face hovered inches from mine. I could feel his hot breath on my lips that smelled like cinnamon. With his chest pressed up against mine, my heart was beating rapidly while he smirked and leaned closer, if that was even possible. "Don't mess with me Ruby. You won't like the consequences." "And what would those be?" I asked breathlessly. His lips brushed against my ear and I drew in a breath. I could feel him smiling. "You'll see." ~~~ Ryder Daniels is arrogant, cocky, and your typical bad boy. He fights, rides a motorcycle, and attracts as many girls as a local Starbucks would. With his Greek God body, every girl falls for him, but he only breaks their hearts by playing them. Ruby Buchanan is the new girl, but not the nerdy one that would get picked on, but a fighter.
