Stay There
'"I'll show you what to do. Get on your knees," he demands, his voice low like a growl. I can only do what he requests, nodding submissively as I fold my hands carefully in my lap, watching as he scoots closer to the edge of the bed. "Teach me. I want to know how to make you feel good," I whisper. I lean into his hand as he gently strokes the pad of his thumb against the curve of my cheekbone. He tucks the loose strands of my hair back behind my ear and then sinks his teeth into his bottom lip. "Good girl, Blossom. Good girl."' 🌸🌸🌸 Eager as ever to continue their relationship in their dream city, New York, Lexi Brooks and Bryce Bradshaw have to learn how to stick by each other despite all the things they encounter in their new home; new opportunities, new friendships, and most importantly, new potential romantic interests.

The Bookworm
Excerpt: "Groaning, I pushed her blindly against the wall, bumping in a shelf, shit breaking around us. Didn't care, though. I hooked her other leg around me and held her up against the wall, taking long licks with my tongue, loving her against her mouth, tasting, experiencing her, all that she was. I let her slide down on me and pressed against her, as I fitted myself to the place my body mostly needed." -Noah Noah Wilson and Amara Miller. Magnets pushing apart, pulling together. He can't stand her, but he can't take his eyes off of her. She wants to hate, him but the more he's showing parts of himself, the harder it becomes. Can they survive the mishaps and grow into accepting one another? Note: We get the story told by both characters. It's shifting between Noah and Amara. Trigger Warnings: This book contains mature themes, such as sex scenes while both parties are of age. Also, there's a sex dream seen by Noah (21 years old) with Amara (17 year old). However, while still a minor, nothing physical happens between them, other than the dream. This book is a novella. It's a first draft, so mistakes are to be expected.

His Baby
A/N - There are many spelling and grammar mistakes - I apologise, also this was written when I was a teen so this story is so beyond reality. Thanks. Rose Quinten is the daughter of an ex-Navy seal turned security for the rich and famous. After a tragic life in England they up and move to sunny California where she meets the bad boy at a party when a guy tried to force himself on her he saves her, keeping her safe in a room they play games all night then things get heated. Rose unknowingly meets the family of the guy she slept with. Rose is in for one hell of an adventure and also gets more than she bargained for in the end. Comments - "I have to say this is a sweet romance that brings the wonders of being a new mom (dad) in to it, Its a romance that id read again (I've already read it a couple of times XD) I love how she (rose) is not like everyone else I've read. Its refreshing, I mean she's strong, hard-headed (at times) And witty. Its funny reading about how she boss's everyone around (in a good way of course) the Adventures. The tell of a girl turning in to the women she is to day. Its breath taking, I'm gonna stop now before I say to much, But its a good book that can make you laugh just as fast as it can make you cry.... Ok for real I'm stopping (lol) But its a wonderful read" - arrow1616 #5 in Teen Fiction out of 243k Stories - 03 Oct 2020 #3 in Teen Fiction out of 254k Stories - 25 Apr 2022 © This book is of my own creation and I reserve all rights to it.
