My name is Lara Black. I moved from London with my parents when I was four. I left behind a friend. His name was Leonard Van Der Mitch.
Before he was born, his marriage was organised. To the daughter of a rich entrepreneur. Even though I was four when I found out, I was devastated. I had a crush on Sir Smarty-Pants. I found out about his marriage when my family was on the way out of Britain. To Australia.
For a while, it was fine. I even managed to forget about Leonard. Then, three years after we had settled in Australia, something happened. Something terrible. Something that would change me forever. I would never be the same as the innocent, wide-eyed girl I was when I left.
Then, one day, I found something that Leonard had given to me. I was sixteen. I suddenly knew that I needed to get back to Britain. I needed to see Sir Smarty-Pants.
The person who awaited me was a very different person to the one I remembered.

"C- Can you move b- back a little?" My words made him smirk and if it's even possible, he came closer. Why do I always have to stuck between him and the desk?! "Why? Am I making you nervous?" "No." I lied. Ofcourse, he was making me nervous. His eyes had the power to hold a person on his place and that's what his eyes were doing to me. "Really?" He asked, putting his hands on my waist and pulling me closer towards him. On instinct, I put my hands on his chest. I didn't like it. I didn't like the way my body was responding to his touches. "T- This is un- unprofessional." I choked out the words, but I wish I couldn't have. He brought his face closer, so close that I could feel his minty breath on my lips. My lips parted accordingly in shock. "Oh, is it?" He said, mockingly. Oh god!

Two Week Honeymoon (SAMPLE NOW ON AMAZON)
Standalone Honeymoon for one Rebound/Second chance romance HEA After I embarrassed and left my fiancé stunned at the altar, I ran off to Barbados--the two-week all-inclusive trip Tristan bought for our honeymoon. While trying to forget the man who betrayed me, I met Gareth--a tall, dark-haired, blue-eyed, overly sexy man who had me swooning every time he smiled his playful, flirtatious smile at me. The guy was hot AF, and the more we hung out, the more attracted to him I became. Causing me to let down my guard when I agreed to sleep with him with no strings attached for the rest of our stay. All I wanted was a distraction to help keep me from thinking about what led Tristan to want to try new things and explore his sexual desires. I got what I wanted, but when I left Barbados, I went with more than what I came with. Now I have no idea what to do because the agreement I made with Gareth was with no strings attached--just sex buddies while vacationing. I'm screwed, because the agreement I made with Gareth would've worked had I not been attracted to him, fallen in love with the guy, or left Barbados with a piece of him. I can't see myself with any other guy, and I don't want to be with anyone other than Gareth. Now, I have to do everything I can to find him before it's too late.Complete

Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach."

The Backpacker's Dream
'No, he didn't'. I was so shocked by the turn of events. Everything was going fine and then suddenly boom, everything turned upside down. I just couldn't believe this. What did he think of himself? 'Leave me alone.' I said firmly but his hold on me was so strong. I was struggling to get out of his bear hold but to no avail. 'Oh!! So, the poor lady thinks that I will leave her alone and just let her go free?' He had that evil laugh and boy, his breath stank. 'Man, you just signed your death warrant and I will do one favour on you.' No one messes with me. 'Ooooh, I am so scared that I almost peed my pants.' Again that idiotic laugh. I counted till 5 and then kicked right in his balls. I turned around and grabbed his hair from roots, jerked them so badly and then gave my hard elbow shot on his chin. Everything happened so fast for one moment he was standing and the other lying on floor wiggling. I charged at him with my cheetah speed, picked up a wooden rod and started hitting him wildly, 'You idiotic stinky breath was trying to steal my backpack. You are so dead.' 'Favour, favour, favour.' He was screaming in pain just after few seconds and was panting hard. I picked my paste from my bag and threw at him, 'Brush your teeth.' I was fuming. I turned around and saw him standing wide-eyed, 'Hi, I am Scarlett.' I smiled showing my 32 teeth. 'I am scared.' His look puzzled me.

I think I'm gonna revise this to mature a little more lol Story 1 of Pirates of the Caribbean Jessica Williams is a well profound pirate. her name is known to most places on land and sea. At least it used to be before she disappeared for a decade. Her mother being a fallen Pirate Lord, her father being a fallen Commodore left her an orphan at the age of 17. That didn't slow her down. She made a name for herself in her ruthlessness, saving no mercy for any gender or rank. Along her life she got herself into a spat with Davy Jones on the seas, interfering with souls he was trying to collect by force. She said it was an imbalance to the natural order but he in turn nearly killed her..Tia Dorma nursed her back to health when she found Jessica washed up on the shores of her island. Her entire crew had been killed and she was left barely alive. So Tia Dorma decided to held her in exchange for her beating heart. Jessica didn't understand at the time, and claimed she had no use for it so she could happily take it. Everyone she ever cared about was dead anyways so what did she need it for? However, Tia said there was much about a human heart that she had yet to lean and she would only give the heart back once it heals and Jessica could "properly utilize it" whatever the hell that meant.. Until then Tia would put a spell on Jessica. She couldn't die until something in Jessica stirred that cold heart of hers..read to see more!
