Phoebe Maguire, a twenty two year old small-town woman, has never known her parents nor her family. The only aspect surrounding them that she knows for sure is that the Maguire family of Oak Hill, Oklahoma are prestigious and mysterious. They are everywhere but also nowhere to be found. Phoebe has never had luck. She went through the system as a child, and never had a stable home. The only love she's ever known is that of her best friend and sister-figure, Harper Jane. Desperate for an income in order to fund a private investigator, Phoebe throws herself at the infamous and notorious 'sugar daddy', Mr. Matthews. As she becomes his wife, Phoebe uses her newfound fortune to dive into the dark, sinister and twisted mystery of her family, while simultaneously fighting a vicious evil locked inside her own husband. Together with Harper and her private investigator, the suave Carter Lockwood, they all face horrifying truths about their thought-to-be humble small town, about the people they love and about themselves.

If only it was an Illusion! by Aafrynn
60 parts Complete
"you're no one to me", his words echoed in my ears but what was it all when he kissed me; merely an illusion? It felt so real and lively. "...and just so you know, you're not allowed to leave this job until or before 6 months", he flung the contract papers in the air. I had signed the papers, the terms and conditions clearly meant that I was supposed to work for his company and had no right to leave it until his consent. "Leave my cabin for now", he ordered as he turned behind. ********** Amanda Waters is your typical College student who happens to face a lot of financial difficulties and as a result, is made to earn a living. She's blunt, She's sensitive but she is also accompanied by two of her best friends in this story: Gina Sullivan and Francis Rutherfold. The enterprise which she works in is different, very different. In fact, the 'CEO' is not just another Happy go lucky male lead of the company. Aaron Reynolds- Rude, Arrogant, Harsh, and Stubborn. He's what they call an eccedentesiast. They say that a person who defines negative adjectives has a lot more inside them, the darkness in that person may overrule all the Positiveness. Well, with Aaron, it's hard to say. But...What if Amanda already had a face-off with 'The CEO' before working in his firm? What if she had already drawn a thick line of hate? What if egos of the same level collide? What then? True Love? More like an illusion! An illusion that poses a life threat. An illusion with the ability to make you believe in non-existent things such as; fairies, demons, fate, and even destiny! Ironic is it not? What we as humans happen to rely on.

It's a dream job until the perks come in the form of his tall, handsome, olive-skinned, Italian billionaire son, Leonardo Castillo whose arrogance irks her in the worst way and yet... draws her to him in the best way. One very first and explosive encounter sends a whirlwind of emotional backlashes, heated moments, drunken mishaps, dark secrets, and lustful and forbidden acts into play. It's passionate. It's dangerous. It's a type of life she would not have lived had she not kissed those lips of his, had she not let him touch her with those gentle hands, had she not let him draw out her deepest moans. Even though he had a heartbreak reputation. Even though he would rather be spotted dead than with her in public. Even though he had his own demons that would throw them into chaos over and over. He was fire and she played with it... amidst the growing tension of family secrets between father and son, and the risky health of her employer. But when the heated moments are no longer just moments, and the forbidden actions don't feel so forbidden, Olivia must decide how long she can play this game to keep her job, as wounds start to open, secrets start to spill and danger comes to light.
