Delilah Matthews is a small business owner in the suburbs of Seattle. Her bookstore, 'Delilah's Corner', is her pride and joy. She works tirelessly every day to improve the environment she has created. In fact, she just added something new to 'Delilah's Corner', pastries and coffee. Delilah's other passion in life (next to books) was baking. Delilah prided herself on her self-taught baking skills and thought it was time to add her personal hobby to her work. 

In walks Demarcus. Demarcus, or De as his friends affectionately call him, a former Marine turned entrepreneur. Demarcus and his friends Phoenix, Hayes, Luke, and Archer all co-own a chain of bars/clubs in Seattle called YoungBlood. Demarcus mostly works on the culinary and mixology side of things, so when he decides he needs to spice up their dessert menu, he finds Delilah. 

Delilah and Demarcus could not be more different. Demarcus is a 6'2 ex-marine with a dirty sense of humor, a killer smile, and a devilish attitude. Delilah on the other hand, hates confrontation and reads books to the children at the homeless shelter. The two were the epitome of salty and sweet, a complete juxtaposition of one another. But, somehow they were made to be together.

"What the hell did you do!?" I heard a feminine voice behind me. I groaned and turned around to meet a very angry face. I have never seen a girl this pissed before and honestly speaking, I am a little bit afraid. "She knew what she was getting into. Everyone knows I am player and I never stick to one girl." I shrugged and turned around to walk away. I didn't even take one step when I felt a firm hand on my t-shirt. She took a fist full of my shirt and turned me around so I was facing her. She then held my collar. Damn, she is almost the same height as me and if I would have been any normal guy, I would be terrified of her. "You don't treat girls like trash, asshole. She has feelings, she is not some toy that you got bored from after playing for a while. Apologize to her." She said through gritted teeth pointing towards Leah who was crying her eyes out. I noticed the crowd that started forming around us. I shrugged her hand away from my t-shirt and glared at her. "I will not apologize to anyone." I said slowly through gritted teeth. She is starting to piss me off. No one clashes me and no one stands against me. Even though I am new here, everyone knows that. I saw her eyes go blank and before I could duck, her fist made contact with my face and I felt sharp pain coursing through my nose. I held my nose tight and felt warm liquid flowing to my lips. Olivia Claire is a 16 year old high scholar. She is a fighter who never took anyone's shit and is famous for it. She mostly minds her own business occasionally helping people that might need her. Carter Grayson is a 16 year old guy recently transferred to Olivia's high school. Tall, handsome guy with lean figure, hazel eyes, brown hair and smile to die for. He has been known to be a player in his last high school and he plans on continuing that identity. So, what happens when a typical bad boy clashes with a not-so-nerd bad girl.

One day you're happy, and the next, a freak accident exposes your boyfriend's dirty little secrets in the worst possible way. I lost the man I loved, my trust in people, and my home in less than one afternoon. At least I know that I've pushed past unimaginable pain before, and I can do it again. Elijah didn't break me, just my heart. 💔🔨 So, the LAST thing I needed was to run into my ex's best friend, Gray on the street. Who cares if he's hotter than lava? Gray's a cocky jerk who seems to get a misguided kick out of making my blood boil. And did I mention the guy's got a chip on his tattooed shoulder even bigger than his inflated ego? Unfortunately, I just found out that I accidentally hired him to work on the BIGGEST campaign of my career!💀 But when Gray's prismatic eyes fill with heartfelt apologies, I don't know how to feel. It's messing with my mind, my career, my new friendships, and worst of all, it's hurting what's left of my ruined heart. I thought Gray hated me, but I was wrong...There is something much, much stronger that binds our fate. 🥊💕 This book contains adult themes (aka sexy stuff and trigger content) as well as Oxford commas and the occasional grammatical error. 🥊💕 **This is a complete story that I am currently in the process of editing, so feedback, notes, and helpful comments are always welcome.

We are moving and I didn't knew about it until now.... "You all are coming with us too. Sophie got enrolled in Architecture and Designing college of Los Angeles and Liam will finish his school there." She lays out her plan and no one thought what I would do if I leave everything behind here and I am not included here again. "Ok so everything is already planned. Sophie got enrolled in the college already, dad has set his business and I get to know this now." I laugh humorlessly pushing away my plate . "what about me mom? Dad?" I look at them for an answer. "What about my life here? My career? My plans about life here? You didn't thought to tell me before taking decision on my behalf?" "I never had a courage to ask before but, why do you both hate me so much? What have I done to always get your hatred?" I ask as the tears threaten my eyes but I won't allow them to leave my eyes. Ivy has craved for love and attention her entire life and Tyler comes into her life and sweeps her off her feet. He fills her life with all the happiness and love she deserves. She is a shy, innocent and a nerd. He is the most handsome boy of the college whom everyone knows. She likes to read books and doesn't like to be noticed. He is a photographer and loves adventure. They are polar opposites but fate brings them together. Most of the people she had close to her heart left her and Tyler is the only one she has left. Will he stay? How will she deal with the losses she has faced? ------------------------------------------- #1 - bakery (28/07/2022) Started on- September 25 , 2020
