The nation of Illéa was looking forward to their Crown Princess, Helena Schreave, taking her rightful place on the throne. But when the Princess decided to marry instead, to a Crown Prince of another nation, Illéa is left with her younger sister, Charlotte, to take her place. But the younger Princess needed more time, as she had not been groomed for the role of Queen. Now after years of grooming to become Illéa's new Queen, Princess Charlotte follows tradition and hosts a Selection. Inviting 35 men to the castle to compete for her hand. And among the 35 is Levi Hernandez. The unconventional choice for the role of King and husband. Everyone knows he shouldn't have been accepted. The veteran, tattooed, car mechanic knows he shouldn't be there either. But little does everyone know Charlotte picked his application. She knew he wasn't going to be her family's first choice, especially her father's. Maybe it was purely out of rebellion, or maybe it was because something about him caught her eye, but whatever it was, he's there, and Charlotte's the only one willing to give him a chance. based on the series "The Selection" by Kiera Cass

That Grayson Sterling-the man who made her feel seen-would stand by her side when it mattered most. But when the laughter in the boardroom got too loud, he said nothing.

But when years of neglect and unspoken grief collide with her husband's devastating mistake, everything begins to crumble. Caden Barrett has always been the fixer-at work, at home, and in his marriage. But some things can't be solved with late-night apologies or expensive gifts. To win back Felicity's trust, he'll have to face his failures, fight for their future, and learn what it truly means to not only love his wife, but to show that love. Together, they must navigate family turmoil, betrayal, and the painful echoes of the past. Through chaos, heartbreak, and unexpected joys, Felicity and Caden discover that love isn't about perfection-it's about persistence, forgiveness, and choosing each other again and again. This is a story of brokenness and healing, of second chances and the quiet work of love. It is a novel that explores modern marriage, blended families, and courage while asking: when everything shatters, can love be rebuilt stronger than before?

I had said it previously that day, but how did he get it? ❝𝗗𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗘𝗹𝘃𝗶𝗿𝗮?❞ I stared blankly at him, my mind riddled with the countless amount of possibilities. Perhaps it meant that I was dead. I'd wake up with my feet in cement and have only a moment to breathe before I was thrown into the water. Maybe he'd just strangle me and cremate my body to rid of evidence. When no answer came from me he pulled out what appeared to be a remote and spoke again. ❝𝗜𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂'𝗿𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗽𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗱 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗲, 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗮.❞ He clicked a button and instantly I could feel the vibrations pulsing between my legs. {𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭} Part One of the Burn Series.

She has always held the world in her hands. Especially when it comes to Dauntless and everything and everyone in it. She's entitled to it, or so she believes because of who's last name and genes she carries in her blood. But she fights for it, because she calls it home. And they welcome her. They accept her. No one dared treating her wrong, because they knew who exactly she was. Except for Eric. He's always been able to strike fear into even the eldest of people. No one dared disrespect him, especially without suffering a consequence. No one's ever been able to resist his threats, his attitude, his everything. His being kept people away. And that was just how he wanted it. No one dared to speak to him. Except for Lillian. Lillian is the daughter of the Dauntless leader, Max. She's always been aloud to do what pleases her, until Eric storms into the picture as her instructor. Her supervisor, and more importantly, the one who her life as a Dauntless depends on. He chooses whether she stays or she goes, and he revels in that. She despises the fact he holds her very lifeline as a Dauntless in his hands. But she obeys, because her life rides on his decision, despite who her father is. Eric's hellbent on breaking her and making her into a soldier. Something stronger than she is, something perfect in his eyes, something to revel in. A dangerous weapon is what he wants. And slowly, as he turns her to that, she becomes drawn to something more. But she's also bent on figuring the man who works with her father out. She's bent on defining him, on finding his horizon between man and soldier, what makes him tick and even what doesn't. It's his enigmatic nature that draws her in, but slowly she's becoming unrecognizable to the surface. But she's willing to lose herself. But for both of them to get what they want, they've got to blur the lines between Instructor and Initiate, between business and pleasure, between life and even death. [A Divergent Fanfiction. Eric/OC]
