"When a person faces challenges, they fight. They walk into that field and do whatever they can to win."
Alice was always professional. Even if it came to her personal life. She wasn't like other people. She was constantly serious and queen of sarcasm. Some people said that was because she was a Capricorn, or maybe because of her rough past. Nobody really knew. She was known for her cold character. She was as hard as stone and as cold as ice.
Her publishing company was on fire. She was one of the most requested publishers in her country and also the best one. She took everything seriously. She had high standards and would never waste her time on people who didn't deserve her time.
When she gets a draft from Kyle Newton, she was inspired because of his writing skills. He had earned her respect and she thought of him as a genius. But what happens between the two when they finally meet at a party for a friend? What will Alice do as her worst fear comes true? What will happen when the both of them when they just can't get rid of each other? What will happen...?
If she knew about the scars she would gain, the pain she would feel, the guilt haunting her... if only she knew. But I guess those grey eyes and that smirk was the one thing that stopped all her senses. Because that was what brought her to her end.

Loving the Enemy
Dear Olive, I hate you. I hate that you were born and that your human and have a face. I hate that you live next door to me and I hate that I can't sleep at night because the thought of you has forever left a vivid image creased in the back of my mind. And most of all, I hate that you hate me. Hate, Everest Since the first grade when Olivia Kingston and her family moved in right across the street from Kyle Everest, he had believed to have instantly hated her. (At least thats how he tells the story) And maybe it was just because of the mere fact of her existence, or maybe it was that time she ate the last fruit snack at lunch, or let's not forget, in fifth grade she stole his partner in crime, being his twin sister Madeline. Now being 17 years old Kyle Everest still holds this unknown resentment against his next door neighbor Olivia Kingston, and torches her in any possible way he can, but what would happen when Olivia finally gets sick of letting Kyle torcher her unexplainably? Everything would change in the matter of one day when Olivia accidentally gets them both locked in the principals office in search of the same thing: The truth. But while staying together in a cramped room with no phones and surviving off nothing but the secret stash of their principal, while the entire schools is off on spring break, secrets will be told and feeling will unravel. And let's not forget, hate letters will be sent. This book may seem light and fun but it has some mature scenes and dark thoughts that I'd suggest for viewers 16+Complete
Unraveling Him | A mafia Story
Book #2 in the "Bloodlines & Ashes" series (Can be read as a stand-alone) HER A mystery. So very complicated. An enigma. A puzzle with so many missing pieces. Add one of the above ingredients into my plate and call me intrigued. Enter him. He is all of them and more...much more. He claims to be a monster. He doesn't believe in redemption. He is too vague and too dark for me to read. But it's my job now. To help him, figure him out, to find all of his missing pieces, arrange them together and finally obtain the final picture. It's my job, to find his deepest darkest secret. It's my job, to unravel the beast he claims to be and finally see the man behind. HIM Lost. I've been lost for way too many years. I thought it was over. I wanted it to be over. I had nothing to live for anymore. I've killed, I've destroyed and obliterated. It was enough. My role in the story should've ended there. I was too big of a monster to be tamed. Too dangerous to be kept alive. Enter her. Too loud. Too obnoxious. Too naive. Innocent, so very innocent. So intent on aiding me, redeeming me. She is unaware, she is opening a door that was shut down with a broken lock. I am scared. Terrified even. She is too white against my inner darkness. Too pure to be tangled with the devil living within me. We don't mix. We should never mix. Instead of pulling me out of that room, she might just get herself stuck inside as well. She wants to unravel the beast and meet the man behind, but I am scared that if she succeeded, she'll find nothing behind.Complete
The Badboys' Good Lips
To crave safety was one thing. To sleep with a monster to get it? That was something else entirely. ____________________ The bar. Her best friend. The need to forget her ex.

However, things don't go as planned when said one-night-stand saunters back into her life. Not only is he as handsome as he was during their night of fun, but he seems to be a completely different person than Maebelle remembers. He's dangerous, brooding, vicious, and far from the man she thought she had first met. And he wants absolutely nothing more to do with her. What seems like fate is what tosses them together. What seems like karma is what can't keep them apart. Mr. tall and handsome lives a life far from the safe haven Mae so desperately craves to have, but after stumbling upon something she shouldn't have seen? Mr. tall and handsome isn't so keen to let her go. ____________________ t r o p e s: Grumpy x sunshine Mature themes Criminal/Gang-related content ____________________ D I S C L A I M E R: this story has been re-edited and republished. the events of this story , for those who have read it prior to February 2023 , have been slightly altered to make way for my improved and matured writing style (as well as to fix plot inconsistencies). originally published : june 2017 newly published : february 2023 ____________________ Copyright © All Rights Reserved

She Said I Do (But She Don't) ✔
#99 Romance [20/12/2016] An independent woman proposes an open marriage to her deceased brother's best friend to help pay his company's debt with the money her brother left her in his will as a 'wedding gift'. * * * * * * * * "Let me help you, Owen." Alice swivelled on the desktop to be sitting facing him directly. "We can get married right now, get the money and file for divorce the next second." She was nearly leaving him no choice. But then again, his concern wasn't fully about the money. "And... and what about us?", he inquired in a low voice. "What about us?", Alice told him innocently. He grabbed the forearm she rested her weight on the table and shocked her by pulling her down onto his lap. Their face came inches apart. Her bosom touched his chest. Her hands instinctively set on his hard chest. A gasp escaped her mouth at the surprisingly electrifying contact of their bodies. He felt that too. For a second, his eyes wandered to her lips. Then he shocked her with his next words. "If I marry you, I can't divorce you."
