Meet Scarlett Striker, a bold and quirky journalist for the Seattle Times. She's fun, confident, sassy, and just the right amount of weird. Scarlett is determined to rise to the top, no matter what it takes. When her boss offers a golden opportunity to be among the best, Scarlett knows she needs to find a story that will make her career. She's willing to say and do just about anything to get there. But from the moment James Wilson enters the picture, her life takes a dramatic turn-and nothing will ever be the same. Scarlett's POV: "Are you always this infuriating?" he asks, clearly annoyed. I shoot him a glare, my temper flaring. "Depends on who's pissing me off," I snap back, noticing the way his fists clench. Great, now I've gone and poked the bear. "All good. I forgive you," I add quickly, not wanting to push him too far. He scoffs and turns away, unimpressed. God, what an asshole. I know I'm testing him, but I can't help it-I've always been a hothead, especially when someone tries to control me. ----- Meet Elizabeth Casana, a highly regarded executive assistant in New York City. She's smart, a bit of a nerd, and an obsessive cleaner, but she's also confident and never afraid to speak her mind. When she moves to Seattle with Scarlett, she lands a job as Chris Bryant's executive assistant. He's charming, fun, and carefree-but she absolutely cannot fall for him. Little does she know, falling for her boss will be the least of her worries as her past resurfaces and new dangers emerge. Elizabeth's POV: I roll my eyes, but I'm smiling too. "You're such a charmer, Chris. But I'm onto you." "You say that like it's a bad thing." "Not bad," I admit, my hand resting comfortably on his leg. "Just...dangerous." ----- This story gives you two perspectives, alternating each chapter between Scarlett and Elizabeth. Expect a rollercoaster of drama, love, and comedy. P.S. It will get spicy-MATURE CONTENT ahead!

When Stars Align by bellamerce

"You have got to be kidding me" he utters suddenly. "What?" i ask and follow his line of sight down to the ground floor front desk. "Angelo? What's wrong" i ask again, concern creeping into me as I put my hand over his on the table. "Nothing's wrong baby. Just that my sisters are here" he turns to look at me and turns his hand over, so that he grips mine comfortingly. "Oh....oh! Ok, well, we are done here right?" i ask rhetorically, referring to our meal, then pull my hand free and reach for my purse. "Yeah, calm down. It's ok, i just wasn't expecting them to show up here" he says softly, when he notices me getting ready to leave. "No worries" i stand up anyway. "What are you doing?" He asks, alarmed. "Leaving, i will see you later, yeah?" "Marianne, sit down" His eyes narrow at me in an intimidating manner, but i don't cower. "Sit down" he says again, even more assertively. "I am not meeting any more of your family." I mutter. "Sit down! this is not funny" he says under his breath, trying not to bring too much attention to our table, when i look just about ready to leave. "Thank you for lunch..bye" i whisper and go down the other way from the direction his sisters are now coming to our floor on. I don't turn around to see the look on Angelo's face, but i can feel his heated gaze as it drills holes into my back. ********* When the stars align, and Angelo Morreli meets Marianne Wright, Angelo is drawn to her by something he can't explain, like a light shining in the hidden darkness that is in his World...for Mary, he is an enigma, capable of drawing her out of her comfort zone, she knows right away that she should run the opposite direction fast.......and Never. Look. Back..... ........because it's the second glance that ties your hands, as darkness pulls the strings. #1 in Original story (05/01/2022) Books by Bellamerce Book 1: Only For You (Completed) Book 2 :When Stars Align (Completed) Book 3: Fire On Fire (Completed)

I'll Be There For You by theflash_2017

Love can be a complicated emotion to process. It has its ups and downs, it can make you feel indifferent or anxious or insecure. But, it can also be the most powerful weapon that you can use. Love can have a huge impact on our lives. When we think we're about to give up on love, something or someone come into our lives and changes our perspective on it. That's what happened with twenty-five year old, María Villanueva. She had just broken up with her boyfriend of five years, and she thought she wouldn't be able to love or trust anyone again. Not until she meets twenty-six year old, Luis Ramirez. They start to talk and they hit it off right away. But María still has this feeling that she doesn't think she can handle being in another relationship after what happened with her last, and to make matters worse, her ex is still in the picture. Luis, however, does everything to make sure María doesn't get hurt in any way anymore. And makes sure she feels loved and appreciated. Will María have the happily ever after that she desires with someone new? Or will her past and her ex keep getting in the way?

No Rain, No Flowers by StephanieNiesPeterso

She fell in love with the boy next door when she was just five years old. Despite Christian being 5 years older than Michelle, she would stop at nothing for him to return her love. "I felt tears welling up again. My silence forced him to look my way. I turned my head quickly hoping he wouldn't see me starting to cry. "I didn't realize I looked so bad in my bathing suit still..." I said quietly after a beat. "What do you mean?" he asked me confused. "Your reaction to how bad I looked, you told me to put my clothes back on..." I stopped trying not to cry and let a tear fall. "Shit, Michelle... You didn't look bad.... I was just.... Shocked. You look like you're going into college. That's a far cry from what you looked like at the beginning of the summer. Guys were gawking at you. I had to decide if I should stay and keep you covered up or go and knock them out, so they couldn't look at you." He stopped simply because he ran out of air. I was smiling by this point. "Oh, you find this amusing?" he asked. I chuckled. "Well, no. It's just, I thought I had really changed this Summer. I am starting middle school this week and I am super nervous about not being the fat nerd from last year..." Christian shook his head. "You have changed drastically. When you climbed into the van this morning, I barely recognized you. We can't go for months without seeing each other anymore because I won't know who you are if you keep growing up like this."
