But as her business relationship with single dad Jian Li slowly develops into something more, Kasey is surprised to find herself falling in love with him despite his hot-and-cold attitude towards her -- and the fact that she has a long-term high school boyfriend.

Or will Jian's fear of commitment -- and his belief all the women in his life are cursed -- be enough to keep them apart?

THANK YOU, Wattpad, for the HQ Love Watty Award! Concept: A mysterious young woman flees from her troubled past only to discover it is impossible to escape THE SECRET that haunts her. *PLEASE NOTE: This story was originally inspired by the movie "Sleeping With the Enemy". * * * * * "I would never, Steven," she promised, turning away from him in an attempt to protect herself. "I know you wouldn't," he screamed. Cupping her chin in his hand, he forced her to look at him. "Because I would kill you." His words hung heavy in the air. Sarah's heart sank into her stomach. No matter how many times she'd heard the menacing phrase, she could never get used to it. It had the same affect on her as the first time he'd thrown the ugly words in her face. The familiar sting of bile rose in her throat, and she knew she would deplete the contents of her stomach once she was locked in the safety of their master bath. 'If I make it through this time,' she agonized. Her biggest fear was that one day he would really lose his temper with her. Who knew what would happen then? *This story is an unedited first draft.

"For a place called Paradise City, this island sucks. I don't think a single day has gone by that I haven't thought about stabbing the shit out of myself," he said. "Especially since I'm forced to live with you every second of every day." "Sh. I'm trying to science," I said, not looking up from my binoculars. "See anything interesting?" "Not really. My vision's a little clouded from the fog and rain clouds you constantly emit." He laughed. "You never fail to amuse me, Rea." "But you just said-" "I just said you make me want to stab myself. Interpret that however you'd like." With a love for whales and all life (besides maybe humans), Reagan Winebrenner had never even seen an ocean until her senior year in high school.

Stiles blinks. "Right, the reading room. Do you have your, uh ...library card?" he asks. He's never been able to make that sound normal and not vaguely dirty when he actually means wand. (A Potterverse AU in New York City)

Some of the words she hates include economy class, second-hand clothes, and budget. She likes fashion, dating, not being on time and getting what she wants - until she meets Sean, who is like the clock striking midnight; he erases all her magic power. He is as mature and sophisticated as the dark roasted coffee he drinks, while she is like a lollipop: colorful, dazzling on the outside but empty calories and artificial sweeteners on the inside. The attraction is instant, but getting a kiss is only the first step. To keep their fire burning, they must accept each other's differences and decide if what they're building is strong enough to survive trials, jealousy, expectations, and the fear of becoming someone they no longer recognize.

Under Construction!! FlyGirl 2.0 is being revised. The youngest -- and only -- daughter of deceased Mob lawyer Edward McIver, rich girl Siobhan McIver has always jumped first and thought about consequences later... until a thoughtless summer fling with an obsessive older man results in a broken arm and a bruised spirit. Determined to get her life on track, Siobhan returns to college with a renewed outlook on her life and goals. After all, there are no mistakes... there are only learning lessons. But when her landlord calls about her unpaid rent... and the power company is about to turn off the lights... and her car is repossessed... she turns to her family and discovers losing her money is just the beginning of a devious plan involving her and billionaire Alexander Livingston. F.B.I. Jason Donnelly made a rookie mistake when he met 19-year-old Siobhan McIver. He was supposed to recruit her as an informant; he wasn't supposed to fall in love.

Never one to walk away from someone needing help, Donnelly runs to her side and finds himself in the middle of a conspiracy involving the FBI, the McIver Group international law firm, and the son of one the country's wealthiest families. Donnelly's used to catching criminals, but helping Siobhan means putting himself in the sights of very dangerous and very power men. And Siobhan, who's trying regain her power, needs to learn that strong people can need help, too. FlyGirl 2.0 is the revised FlyGirl. Cover by Liz Charnes.
