"I understand!" were the words Haley Scott tells her boyfriend often these days.
What she actually means is that Haley is totally not okay with him canceling their dates and spending more and more time with his dance partner Cecilia McAdams. However, Haley knows exactly how much dancing means to her boyfriend and so she finds herself saying "I understand" more often than she is comfortable with.

"Okay!", were the words Jason Taylor mutters every time his girlfriend tells him she has to practice more and therefore has less time for him. Their relationship is still new so he can't understand, why she would not want to spend more time with him. However, Jason is a boy and does not want to sound clingy so he finds himself telling her "Okay" more often than he wants to.

Throw in a break up, undeniable feelings, an ex, Haley and Jason and the perfect recipe for drama, fun and possible love is ready.

"Then my mind must just imagine the way you react to my touch. The way you shiver when I'm close to you, the way your breath catches when I whisper in your ear," he said, his voice growing huskier as he leaned in closer. I could feel the heat radiating from his body, the intoxicating scent of his cologne filling my senses. His words, his proximity, everything about him was making it harder to maintain my composure. "And the way your pulse quickens," he continued, his fingers lightly grazing my wrist, "like it is right now. The way your lips part, waiting for my kiss. The way your body leans in, even when your mind says no." My heart was pounding, and I hated that he was right. I could feel the pull, the undeniable attraction that I was trying so hard to deny. Carter's eyes locked onto mine, and I could see the confidence there, the certainty that he had me figured out. "Admit it," he murmured, his breath warm against my skin. "You want this. You want me." ✺✺✺✺✺✺✺✺✺✺ When 17-year-old Olivia Hayes is unexpectedly paired with Carter, the skilled and charismatic dance captain, for a challenging duet, her life takes an unexpected turn.

The Men Next Door by wildfirehoney
47 parts Complete Mature
✅ Complete ✅ When Campbell Kramer accepted a job offer in Manhattan, she never could've imagined what the city had in store for her. Namely, two handsome men who live on either side of her new apartment. One is older, one is younger. One is introverted, one is extroverted. One is serious, one is playful. Both of them want her attention. What could go wrong? ☲☲☲☲☲ ☆Brooks☆ My neighbor was the one to close the distance between us. She did it quickly -- like she was scared the moment would pass away forever if she let another millisecond go by -- and I rested my hand on the side of her face to steady her. Something about my touch must have given her courage. ♡Campbell♡ The men finally greeted each other while I snipped the green, woody stems and plopped them into the tallest mug I owned. Their sentences were short and awkward, and as I rearranged the blooms for the umpteenth time, the realization that they'd told each other what happened hit me like a south-bound train. I don't know why I didn't expect that. They were best friends, after all. I was just their new neighbor. They had no loyalty to me, no reason to keep our time together a secret. ☆Luca☆ Her lips met mine slowly, softly, hesitantly -- like she wasn't so sure kissing her neighbor was the best idea -- and I responded just as delicately. But when her hand made its way into the back of my hair, our bodies melded together like a lust-struck alloy. And the only hope of separating us was to add more heat. ☲☲☲☲☲ Featured by: 📙 @Wattpad • Spicy Summer Reads (July 2024) • Endless Reading Mode 🧡 (Jan 2024) • Summer in the City 🥵 (June 2023) 📕 @Romance • New Adult (June 2024) 📘 @Ambassadors • Hot Encounters (Dec 2024) Awards: 🥈 Romance runner-up (The Prime Awards 2023)

⚠ Warning sexual content!!! ⚠ *Book 1 of the "Unexpected Lovestory" Series* She loved her husband more than her last breath. She was blinded, deafened and suffocated in his love. She gave him everything but he was a receiver, never a giver. The only things he gave was confusion. He gave manipulation and he gave her mind the masqueraded ideals of his "undeniable love" when the only person he loved was himself. He had plagued her mind, so much so that when he suggested an open relationship he made her believe it was her idea but she never wanted that. She wanted him and only him. He wanted her and everyone else he could get. But that all changed when Tobias Wrexler walked in... ©️ Copyright 2020 Demii Jada R. ©️ All Rights Reserved.

***COMPLETE*** Book #1 in the Hookup series "You're incredibly sexy Emily" I feel sexy, especially when he's looking at me like that. I could melt into a puddle right here from the way his body is pressed so close to mine and the way his eyes are taking me in. "Hunter," I say in warning as his hand snakes further up my thigh. "Tell me to stop and I'll stop," He says as he pulls me down and nuzzles my hair. "But just remember this is a one-time thing and nobody has to find out about it if you don't want them to." By nobody I know he means Tara. She would literally disown me if she ever found out something had happened between me and one of her brothers. It's girl code, right? You can't sleep with or have any sexual relations with relatives, exes or anyone that your best friend deems unfit.
