☆ 2022 WATTYS SHORTLIST ☆ Leonora 'Lena' Winterhaven is a witch on a dry spell. Somehow, she is the only one left in her coven (and possibly all of New York!) to still have her virtue intact at the age of twenty-nine. This would be fine and dandy, if not for a particular curse that afflicts one Winterhaven witch every half-century. Lena just happens to be that unlucky witch. If she remains a virgin by the age of thirty, Lena is in danger of losing all of her powers forever. And for Lena, forever is much too long a time to live without an enchanted shoe collection, perfectly-conjured cups of cappuccino every morning, nor the ability to deep clean her studio apartment with a snap of a finger. But what's a witch to do when these are her options? Vampires? Terribly morbid. Warlocks? Too self-absorbed. Werewolves? Absolutely frowned upon. ...even though Alpha Magnus MacCallan ignites her inner desires stronger than hellfire. 'What We Do in the Shadows' meets 'Sex & the City' in this enchanted tale of sexual awakening! Get ready for a journey filled with chills, thrills and cauldrons full of laughter ☆ [BOOK ONE IN THE WINTERHAVEN DUOLOGY]

Sometimes, when you meet someone, you just click. I don't believe in love at first sight, but I believe in the click. She knew nothing about Chemistry, it was always just a plain hard subject that she hated. But with his help, she realised that, perhaps there was a side to Chemistry that she liked. As they say, experience is the best teacher... "What is Chemistry?" "Chemistry is you touching my mind and it setting my body on fire" We have calcium in our bones, iron in our veins, carbon in our souls and nitrogen in our brains, 93 percent stardust with souls made of flames. We're just stars that have names. Warning: I would not tolerate any form of copyright on this book. This is all my hardwork and I won't be happy if anyone stole, either my characters or my story.

"I'm going to let go and your not going to scream or try to run, you understand?" He said, his voice was deep and he sounded dangerous I knew I had to listen to him I didn't want to speak so I simply just nodded yes. "Answer in words Ellie" he commands as he slightly removed his hand from my mouth "H-how do y-you k-know my n-name?" I asked, it came out more as a whisper and I'm surprised he heard it "I know lots of things" he said...... The description is not that great but please give my story a chance Also I don't own any of the photos in this story!!! This story had some curse words but nothing too severe!

Rebecca Adams has been reading books since before she could walk, or at least her mother was reading them to her until she was able to do it herself. Books are her life, her fantasy world derived from the millions of words she had read over the years and her reality suffered for it. School wasn't quite the place Sweet Valley High made it out to be, the night never revealed the mythical creatures from her Dracula obsession and of course there was never a guy who matched up to her ultimate book boyfriend, Brock McDougal. The main character from the Lyrics to my Heart series had it all and while she didn't think she set her standards too high, hitting twenty two had left her single, practically a virgin and the joke of all her friends. Then something magical happens and Brock enters her life as a living, breathing person – no longer something from her imagination, will Rebecca be sorely disappointed or find a happy ever after? -- Please be aware this story contains the following: adult themes, drug/alcohol references and a bad boy rocker you may just fall in love with too!
