Sugar McKenzie and August Wakefield couldn't be more different - Sugar, a meticulous, caring, but lonely paramedic and August, a charming former reality star still chasing his dream. But they've both closed themselves off emotionally from others...that is until they match with each other on a dating app. 

After a disastrous first date, the two agree to never see each other again, yet they both can't stop thinking about one another, and circumstances keep pulling them back into each other's lives. Are they the real answer each other dreams, or will they continue to go through their lives hiding behind walls, just faking it?

Book 1 of The Secrets of Spiritwood - Complete I was born and raised in Spiritwood with no intention to ever leave, until the choice is taken away from me when my family is put in danger. I return to my grandfather's cabin as the sun is setting only to discover my belongings have been packed. I'm forced to leave without the chance to say goodbye to the two people who mean the world to me. It's been nine years and once again the choice is taken from me. I have no option but to go back to Spiritwood after my grandfather passes but when I arrive, something isn't quite right. The busy hustle of the once quaint town is gone, the streets are eerily quiet and missing person flyers cover the windows of rundown businesses. My plan to deal with my grandfather's estate and skip town before anyone can see me turns to dust when I run into the very people I've vowed to never speak to again. In the end, all I know is that I'm left with so many questions. Can you be in love with more than one person at the same time? Will I be able to forgive them for all their secrets and lies? Will I finally allow myself to let go and fall in love? And why do I have this feeling that I may end up destroyed in the process? **T/W: Foul Language, Foul Attitudes, Violence and Steamy, Steamy Scenes.** Most Impressive Ranking: #1 - Menageatrois - June 3, 2024 #1 - MoonGoddess - October 22, 2021 #1 - Romance - April 12, 2022 #1 - Goddess - April 14, 2022 #1 - Werewolf - June 3, 2024 #2 - Mature - August 11, 2021 #3 - EroticaStories July 17, 2021 #3 - Night - April 14, 2022 #5 - Wolfpack January 19, 2022 #10 - Queen January 12, 2022 #75 - Life September 5, 2021

"We shouldn't be doing this," I gasp as the heat spreads like wildfire across my streaming core. "Then tell me to stop Gray," Seth reveals my black lace bra, he dips his head and kisses my collarbone. I murmur for him to leave but in the midst of it, I pull him closer. "Mean it, sweetheart." I flutter my eyes open, his ocean blue eyes shimmer with arousal and worshipping dominance. He's the first man to ever look at me like that, to look at me as though he would willingly worship me on his knees and receive great pleasure from it. I bite my swollen lip, "I can't." ━━━━━━━━ One moment I was a spinster with a net-worth of millions and a few, and the next moment, I was a spinster having an affair with my best friend's stepson.

We will act like a couple only infront of my parents. Don't expect anything more from me and neither do you knock at my door unless it's important." He spoke menacingly and turned to leave but the moment those words left his mouth, I felt as if someone dumped freezing water over my head. If he hates me so much, then why did he marry me and what does he mean by.. "What do you mean by 'girls like me' ?" I asked. He turned around and walked even closer, all my confidence began to fade. He leaned in, I could feel his breath on my ears. His closeness was doing things to me I have never felt before. I was on the verge of losing my senses, until he spoke.. "An innocent acting, desperate brat." His words pierced my heart, moreover his tone, his words reminded me of people I have been fighting all my life.

✅ 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)

I leaned back against the wall "It's been so long hasn't it?" "Yes, it has... I think the last time I saw you was high school graduation." "Exactly, and I waved at you and was making my way to you but you had disappeared." "Oh, I..." she looked around as if looking for an escape making me smile. She was so adorable. "Hey, it's okay" I chuckled "Don't worry about it. I just always wondered why you kept running from me throughout high school. It was hard keeping up with you, to be honest." Her smile faded and she just shrugged before leaning down to pick up her things "Well, it was nice seeing you again Mr. Walton." "Mr. Walton? Where did that come from?" "It seems we'll be working together now, it's only fair I call you Mr. Walton. It wouldn't be appropriate otherwise." I frowned standing up "Are you running from me again?" After a harsh breakup, Mason Walton's life changed upside down. Instead of being the considerate boyfriend he always was, he became the biggest playboy of all time. He wasn't particularly proud of it, it just was a way to keep his mind off of Celine who shattered his heart in pieces without a care in the world. Are all the one-night stands working? Is he forgetting about Celine? What happens when the playboy runs into his all-time high school crush Katrina Johnson just before a very important meeting? ******* AN: None of the places and characters are real Daily update🥰
