Love Lies - Book 1
[[COMPLETED]] **SPECIAL NOTE** I was working on book 2 for this series but unfortunately, I got a new computer and One Drive has not allowed me to access book 2 on my new PC. It saddens me because I promise it was something I was ready to release but I have a new idea for a new book. If you choose to read this, thank you so much but please be aware that there will be no book 2. Blood may be thicker than water but sometimes water is all we got until the well runs dry.

No matter who is in your sheets, Karma should never be one of them. _____________________ Welcome to Hammington! _____________________ Disclaimer: This story contains content for mature audiences only such as drug use, violence, language, sexual content.

DAYLIGHT - A Tayvis-inspired love story
In a billionaire superstar's world, where genuine connections must be untangled from the brightness of spotlights and the shadows of fame, Taylor's heart was guarded stronger than ever, yet brimming with light and kindness, but also quiet sadness -like a summer meadow under a sky full of stars, like midnight rain drenching the earth. Meanwhile, Travis' heart was open and steady - like a quiet ocean of warmth, unshaken by storms, like sunshine reflecting on a clear, blue ocean. It was the kind of love she hadn't dared to trust, until now. Their first connection - a bold, slightly silly gesture involving a friendship bracelet with his phone number woven into the beads - was sweeter than fiction, charming and just a little awkward. Though it never reached her that night, his attempt to get her attention marked the start of something extraordinary, neither of them would have expected. Like ever. Fate's invisible strings pulled them closer, unraveling the barriers between their worlds. Love bloomed softly at first, like the golden rays of dawn peeking through the night, until it shone with the golden promise of something lasting - like daylight -, and suddenly everything had changed. But the road to daylight wasn't without its shadows. Fame, fear, and the weight of two very different worlds stood between them. Yet with every step, love found its way, glowing brighter than they'd ever dreamed. But in a world of spotlighted chaos and hidden fears, will this love be enough to light up their way? ***** WARNING: My stories are cheesy, dramatic, and made out of romance. I love exploring how people get to know each other and fall in love (and this will take a while!), I adore the shipping, the journey to connection, and the way characters interact, including all the nuances of their relationships and the smut - everything about it! If that's not your cup of tea, then "DAYLIGHT" might not be for you.
Deception (Urban Fiction)
Warning: Mature audiences only. "I love you," he whispered seductively in my ears sending chills throughout my entire body. I was more than in love with this man. He had my mind going wild with just a single touch of his soft hands against my skin. "I want you," he says as he gently pulls me into his arms and kisses my lips passionately. Making my body want more of the sensational feeling his affection created in my body. I was most definitely sprung and I honestly didn't want this amazing feeling he gave me to ever end. He was phenomenal, and he had all of the attributes I looked for in a man. He was fine as hell, romantic, consistent, loyal, funny, active, and had money. "How can a man be so perfect?" I thought in my head as I looked lustfully into his dark brown eyes. "Or maybe he isn't as perfect as I think?" I questioned myself being opened to the possibility that I was slightly blinded by his perfections. "Or what if he's playing me and he's not who I think he is at all?" I thought jokingly, quickly eliminating that possibility. ****************** Who is this wondrous man? is he as great as he seems? Or are the possibilities endless? Follow Nevaeh Nicole Johnson on her search for happiness. Maybe she's already found it? But you'll have to find out.Complete
