Summary: He was supposed to bring her home; He didn't expect to fall in love. When Colton Wolfe tells Katie the truth behind her adoption, she returns to her birth family's home to reclaim what's hers. As she spends the summer repairing the house she inherited, she and Cole will bond, becoming friends and blossoming into something more.

Colton: Half-Breed. Bastard. A young Mvskoke man whose time in a boarding school and on the battlefield had nearly destroyed everything good and innocent inside of him. Jaded and alone, he doesn't see a hopeful future for himself. It's only when a dying Seminole woman reaches out to Cole for a not so simple task that a spark he thought died long ago is reignited in his heart.

Katie: Raised by whites, spirited and hot-headed Katie Richmond, never knew the ways of her people, but then again, she never thought much about it. Her adoptive family gave her all the love she thought she needed until he came into her life. Now she longs for the family and culture she lost all those years ago.Seluruh Hak Cipta Dilindungi Undang-Undang

Your Cheating Heart oleh whoisaheretic

"I want to go back to my old ways." Ezra said in a monotone. It felt like he held no emotion. I stood dumbfounded not knowing what to do? "I tried you know, it's been eleven fucking months we're dating and I still can't expct anything from you to pleasure me." Is this what our relationship was all about? I thought to myself. Still didn't have the guts to say anything. "The hell how can I want you Leila? You're own mother didn't even want you." As soon as those words came out of his mouth, I felt like something died inside of me that day. 'My own mother didn't even wanted me.' I heard some people gasp not believing that was actually happening. I held my head high and with as much grace as I could muster I walked out of the gym that was so beautifully decorated for the homecoming. ___________________________________ Erza Abe Alder heartthrob of Lake Pearl High school.

Somewhere Between Us oleh wrizzy_verse

"Loving you is exhausting and hard. Give me a freaking break." he said. "Then why are you still here?", she whispered with a pale and trembling voice, holding back the tears that were willing to fall down her cheeks. Laura never wanted to fall in love with someone she couldn't touch - someone who only existed behind a screen, a voice borne by time zones and poor connections. But Evan made distance seem hazardous. He made every silence burn. "You could've stopped talking to me." she said to him once. "I tried," he said. "You just wouldn't leave my fucking head." Somewhere in between their late-night phone calls and the words they never spoke, something real started to take shape - delicate, wrong, and beautiful. But love such as theirs was going to shatter. It was constructed on waiting, on jealousy, on all the things they couldn't have. And maybe that's the cruelest kind of love - the kind that feels infinite, but ends the moment you wake up. Until Aiden walked in - the man who was real, present, and everything Evan couldn't be. Aman who had actually been beside her even when she broke his heart, even when she drifted away to chase someone who made her heart ache in ways she never imagined. "He doesn't deserve you. please wake up Lau." Aiden told her. "Then why does it still feel like he's the one?" she whispered. "You're crazy." Somewhere between what she wanted and what she needed, Laura lost control. Between time zones and heartbreak, between messages and memories, something between them had shattered. Because sometimes, love doesn't ask you to choose between two people - it asks you to choose which part of yourself you're willing to destroy.

The Way It Used to Be oleh sheycole

"Two souls are sometimes created together and in love before they're even born." -F. Scott Fitzgerald When eight year old Beau Ruby met twelve year old Colton Caine, she had no idea she was meeting the love of her life. She had no idea she'd grow up with him, with his story weaved into her world as much as her own. She had no idea that at eighteen she'd make a terrible mistake and leave him and everything she knew behind. She had no idea that she'd tear his heart completely apart. She had no idea that returning home and finding out that Colton was engaged would hurt her so much. She had no idea if he'd ever love her again. She had no idea if it would ever return to the way it used to be. • • • "The Way It Used To Be" is a dual perspective story told from different points of view over the course of twelve years in the lives of two best friends who just happened to fall in love.

The Bad Boys Exception oleh JadeGreen16

She was a good girl. She was polite. She was humble. She was extremely beautiful. She studied hard. She didn't drink. She was completely genuine. She would curl up with an good book every night and be completely content. She had a past that always tended to follow her around wherever she went. She wasn't as strong and resilient as she made herself out to be. Her name was Emily Collins. He was a bad boy. He was impulsive. He was arrogant and cocky. He was extremely good looking. He raced. He drunk alcohol. He was a complete player. He would go to a different party every night. He had a past that always tended to follow him around wherever he went. He wasn't as bold and confident as he made himself out to be. His name was Aiden Black. When Emily moves back to her hometown to be with her best friend and cousin she doesn't expect to be window neighbours with Pearlacre highs biggest heart ache. She definitely didn't expect the late night conversations and the events that always seemed to throw herself and Aiden together or the strange feelings she had soon developed for him. Emily was the epitome of a good girl. Aiden was the epitome of a bad boy. Fate has a funny way of doing things, well that is only if you believe in fate. And they say opposites attract Maybe Emily is just like any other girl Maybe Aiden plans to use her for his own benefit and then throw her away like so many other girls before her Or maybe she's the Bad Boys Exception.... ________ Please be warned that this is an extremely slow building story (more so than you think)!!

Where The Rivers Meet (Book 4 in the Legacy of Love series) oleh Hoarder_of_books

In the spring of 1607, as Jamestown rises from the shores of a wild, untamed land, two souls from opposing worlds are brought together by fate and divided by history. Alistair Beaumont, a new colonist carrying the weight of his family's expectations, arrives with hopes of fortune yet finds himself unsettled by the actions of his fellow settlers. Kaya, the fierce daughter of the Monacan chief, watches the colonists with wary eyes, knowing they bring nothing but upheaval to her people's ancient lands. Drawn to each other despite the danger, Alistair and Kaya must navigate the deeply rooted mistrust of their families and communities. In a world of betrayal, cultural divides, and mounting violence, their love becomes a fragile lifeline-a promise of hope where none should exist. But as Jamestown's hunger for land intensifies, the two must make impossible choices, risking everything to protect each other and the legacy they dare to dream of. Where the Rivers Meet is a story of resilience, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bond between two people who defy convention and stand together in the face of a world determined to tear them apart. Set against the historic backdrop of America's first colony, this sweeping romance weaves together love and legacy, asking how far one is willing to go for a chance at unity and peace.

Blanchard oleh Joycelinexo

Six years ago, Blanchard Collins packed her bags, boarded a bus to Houston, and never looked back. She left behind her abusive father, the town that never forgave her for speaking her mind, and Rueben Bailey, the boy who broke her heart the night before they were supposed to run away together. Now twenty-four, Blanchard returns home with her five-year-old daughter, Willow, and a dying mother who's asked for one final thing-her presence. But coming home means facing the ghosts she thought she'd buried, including the man she's never truly stopped loving. Rueben "Benny" Bailey did what his family expected. Stayed, took over the farm, and proposed to the girl everyone said was right for him. But when Blanchard walks back into church with a little girl who looks just like him, everything he's built starts to fall apart.

THE DREAMER - Kayden's story oleh leighjona8

In this captivating spin-off of All That She Needs, Kayden's story unfolds, a tale of love, loss, and a second chance that could change everything. Haley was the love of his life-the girl who once saw him as her whole world. But eight years ago, everything fell apart, and Kayden had only himself to blame. Now, fate has given him another chance. Through letters and shared memories, he lays out the truth, hoping to reignite what was lost-and, most importantly, to earn her forgiveness. But Haley is torn. Drawn to Kayden in ways she can't explain, yet lost in the haunting gaps of her past, she struggles to make sense of the emotions pulling her toward him. Can she trust him? Can she trust herself? Or are some things better left forgotten? This story can be enjoyed as a standalone; however, for the best experience, I recommend reading All That She Needs first. Available now on Amazon Kindle and Kindle Unlimited.
