The Female Bodyguard by Jing-Yi
38 parts Ongoing
"You have to stop doing that." "Stop doing what?" "Saying things that make me want to kiss you when I can't."    Becoming the prince's personal bodyguard should be a dream come true, shouldn't it? Good pay, palace life, but the real gem that everyone covets? A chance to captivate or simply befriend the future king. However, for Larissa Fable, being entrusted to safeguard Prince Casimir Hughes appears to be one of her greatest misgivings in life. Refusing to accept a female bodyguard, Casimir vows to brew more chaos than ever, going as far as burning an apartment to cinders. However, fate takes an unexpected turn when they embark on a clandestine journey in search of a missing princess. As they venture deeper, shadows of concealed truths, some irredeemably grave, begin to surface between them. Each revelation, a crack in the façade of appearances. Larissa cannot help but find herself teetering on the edge of a precipice that threatens not just her identity, but her very life. Yet, amidst the haunting echoes of secrets, Larissa and Casimir find themselves drawn together in ways neither anticipated. A stolen glance lingers a second too long and their hearts race incomprehensibly, an illicit melody of emotions. Bound by agonising lies and a growing yet forbidden desire for one another, they stand at the edge of a treacherous and uncertain future - a place where love and fate collide in a perilous dance. ~~~ A blossoming love story between a girl with a radical dream and a reckless prince she, unfortunately, has to rely on for it to come true.    Amazing cover by @tzehleng Pictures used in banners, covers and any graphics are not owned by me, all credits belong to the owners of those images.
Every Saint Needs a Sinner by _merrittking_
54 parts Complete Mature
Jourdan Mathews has a secret, and she knows she needs to take this one to the grave. * * * Her life was never complicated: a college student with a close family, good friends, and a plan for her future as a doctor. Had that night had never happened, she might even have been called ordinary. But we're not made by ordinary moments. Now in her senior year, Jourdan is in freefall after a catalyzing summer that turned everything upside-down. Her friends know she's in trouble, and her parents hope they've done enough to save her, but Jourdan doesn't feel anything anymore. They say moving on happens slowly, but something needs to change fast before life moves on without her. Ryder Harris considers his life to be the farthest thing from "ordinary." He isn't just the kind-of-good basketball player that made him popular in high school. He is the kind-of-great that comes along once in a generation, a fact that has propelled him on a course which only attempts to reach for the stars. If you ask him, this isn't luck or special talent. No, Ryder Harris makes a point to focus himself, to remain undistracted. He's got priorities, and at the very top of his list is being drafted into the NBA. That dream is very close to becoming a reality his senior year, so close he can almost taste it. But the universe has a nasty habit of giving us what we need, not what we want. * * * part I - Jourdan & Ryder * * * Every Saint Needs a Sinner. Copyright. © May 2022. All Rights Reserved.
Bride Behind the Mask by wildx22

[COMPLETE] Drake Rohan's wife is a real piece of work. He despises everything about her. Everything from the heavily-powdered face, to the overly-red lips, to the shrilly voice she uses to yell the heads off the servants. But this marriage was his mother's last dying wish, and so he is stuck. Painfully stuck. Amelia Weston has never wanted to marry. She is her father's only child and all she ever wanted was to stay by his side for as long as she could. But her stubborn old man has insisted on marrying her off to a Northern stranger to honour a family agreement. And so she devises a perfect plan. Knowing just how much those Northerners hate court ladies from the South, Amelia turns herself into one ⎼ a much-exaggerated version of one. She does everything she can think of to get on Drake's nerves so he would annul their marriage and send her home. But his inhuman patience continues to drive her mad... As their battle of will and wits ensues, a storm is brewing from afar, threatening to tear them and the kingdom apart. ✽ ✽ ✽ Rated Mature for a bit of sex and a bit of foul language.

The Men Next Door by wildfirehoney
47 parts Complete Mature
✅ Complete ✅ When Campbell Kramer accepted a job offer in Manhattan, she never could've imagined what the city had in store for her. Namely, two handsome men who live on either side of her new apartment. One is older, one is younger. One is introverted, one is extroverted. One is serious, one is playful. Both of them want her attention. What could go wrong? ☲☲☲☲☲ ☆Brooks☆ My neighbor was the one to close the distance between us. She did it quickly -- like she was scared the moment would pass away forever if she let another millisecond go by -- and I rested my hand on the side of her face to steady her. Something about my touch must have given her courage. ♡Campbell♡ The men finally greeted each other while I snipped the green, woody stems and plopped them into the tallest mug I owned. Their sentences were short and awkward, and as I rearranged the blooms for the umpteenth time, the realization that they'd told each other what happened hit me like a south-bound train. I don't know why I didn't expect that. They were best friends, after all. I was just their new neighbor. They had no loyalty to me, no reason to keep our time together a secret. ☆Luca☆ Her lips met mine slowly, softly, hesitantly -- like she wasn't so sure kissing her neighbor was the best idea -- and I responded just as delicately. But when her hand made its way into the back of my hair, our bodies melded together like a lust-struck alloy. And the only hope of separating us was to add more heat. ☲☲☲☲☲ Featured by: 📙 @Wattpad • Spicy Summer Reads (July 2024) • Endless Reading Mode 🧡 (Jan 2024) • Summer in the City 🥵 (June 2023) 📕 @Romance • New Adult (June 2024) 📘 @Ambassadors • Hot Encounters (Dec 2024) Awards: 🥈 Romance runner-up (The Prime Awards 2023)
