You can't hate your parents.
Yeah, well did your parents send you away so they could restart their lives without you because you remind them of someone who died. Not to mention, forced you to play the business game. 
Face it. My life sucks.

Marella is "strongly encouraged" to move to a new town with her brother to build up a rising business. Her father, believing it best for their family to separate for some time, enrolls her in a private school which, surprise surprise, is full of fancy-schmancy rich, hormonal  people. And guess what? Everyone takes an interest in the new girl who doesn't act like the pristine, arrogant business culture. 
Boys want business marriages.
Girls want ripped contracts.
But no one knows what Marcella wants. 
Maybe that hot guy staring at her.
Maybe her hot lab partner.
Or Maybe she's playing it safe and just wants to drink tea and read a book.All Rights Reserved

The Player's Happy Ever After by debrock16

Ethan Lane was your typical player. He was smooth, handsome, manly, successful and a total chick magnet. Women loved him and men wanted to be him. He had a steady stream of girlfriends in his past but always craved for more on the side. He could never be faithful or satisfied. He only knew how to live dangerously pleasing only himself as no one else mattered. The idea of finding 'the one' was nothing but bull he didn't believe in love or romance. He came from a broken family where promises and words meant nothing only actions. Having moved out of home at 15 Ethan knew he could only ever rely on himself and no one else. Lauren Contini was studying Business at Uni full time with a part time job on the side. She was naturally gorgeous, smart, funny, intelligent but naive & innocent. She'd only had serious monogamous relationships in the past with a string of guys always willing to be her 'friend'. She was an 'it' girl at Uni and pretty much had it all planned out where her life was going. With a huge family to support her every move she was very much loved. Despite her wealthy family she was down to earth and humble, she planned to make her own wealth and wanted to be financially independent. So what happens when these two worlds collide. Polar opposites in so many ways but the attraction is undeniable. Can they get their happy ending? ~~~~~~~~~~ Copyright © 2015 by Debbie Brock All rights reserved.

Billionaire Next Door✔ by hannahosell

I shrunk back into my seat as his head snapped towards me. He looked like his head was going to fall off. His eyes were blazing with rage. His face was set into an icy glare. His fists that rested on the table were clenched so hard his knuckles were white. As he stood from his chair so did I. I felt like the prey to the biggest predator in the jungle. I took two steps back for every stride he took towards me. I gulped again before shaking me head. "She's just joking Ace." my voice quivered as I took another two steps back. "How do I know that?" he sneered down at me, his body towering over me. As I went to take another step backwards, my back made contact with the wall behind me. Well great. Now I'm cornered. This is just typical. ............................................................. One girl moves to the big apple after her family disintegrates around her. All she has left is her one brother.

The Vipers Temptation | Completed by creativemindxo

After a failed attempt at a relationship, I try to make it on my own. However, I end up with a new neighbor who exudes charm, danger, and sexual energy as if it's a job. To make matters worse, I find myself semi-kidnapped by the same dangerous, foul-mouthed, rude neighbor who turns out to be a part of the Italian Mafia. Now, I'm stuck riding shotgun while being chased by gun-wielding maniacs on our way to someplace "safe." I'm beginning to think this is my new reality. *Trigger Warning* Graphic violence, explicit mature scenes, and non-consensual touching (not from the main love interest).

The Bad Boy Has A Soft Spot by infiniteflames_789

Oil doesn't mix with water, we were taught that when the teacher was ranting about the basic laws of science. It doesn't combine just like how light is always separate from the darkness. But what if they unified? In one word, disaster! This happened to a senior and a freshman at university. With the boundless arrogance of a wealthy and powerful heir combined with the neverending will for justice of a mundane, they declared arch-nemesis against each other and waged war. But after a particular red stain, black notes, an alligator and a bucketload of glue later, she will have to persist in denial and he will have to learn to be less possessive to soothe their growing affection for each other. The question is, will they give in? *in the process of editing and rewriting
