Corrupted by HarperMads

"I love you Brenn. I fell in love with you from the first time i laid my eyes on you, I just never thought that a man like you would ever consider loving someone like me." I could taste the fear and worry in him. I could feel the love and desire. I could sense the corruption around us, but right now all i wanted was him. ************************** In a time of grieving, Emily Levy found herself exalted by an endless amalgam of sensations. Upon her sister's murder, Em ended up getting sucked in a different world where the only thing she could feel was love in a twisted game of faith. Police officer Brenn Hitzig never felt as much thankful for his job. Who knew all it took to find your soul mate was one gruesome murder and a psychopath on the loose? In a lost battle to fight her feelings, Emily gladly surrenders to Brenn, the one person who could make her forget the atrocious truth. Just when they thought that they've hit their silver-lining, things took a turn for the worst. When Emily's mother loses her appetite to live, and her father loses pretty much his sanity, only Brenn she has yet to hang to: her life line. But what happens when another blond soul threatens to steal away her regular doze of happiness and love?

Rich People Problems by treeziaa

As much as Kimberly Astor hated to admit it, she had a slight problem. Okay, so it was theoretically a major problem, but it wasn't entirely her fault. Okay, so it was her fault, (at least to a certain extent, according to her) but her dad didn't need to be all rude about it. He especially did not need to threaten her future role as CEO on it too. And, setting up an arranged marriage to fix said 'problem' is so out of proportion. Okay, it wasn't completely out of proportion, but still. Jace Kingston didn't know what he was getting into when he agreed to be married to a 'problematic heiress'. He certainly was not expecting a sexy vixen, who was hellbent on getting on his nerves and destroying the semblance of normalcy he established in his complex life. So, when the two come together to form a business alliance, they make a simple plan. 1. Fix the problem. 2. Don't ever bring up personal things. 3. Get out. Too bad breaking the second rule is making the third rule look a lot more... difficult.

NEXUM (18+) by xplicitlyvenus

𝐍𝐄𝐗𝐔𝐌'𝐒 𝐆𝐔𝐈𝐃𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐎𝐓𝐀𝐋 𝐑𝐔𝐈𝐍 𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱 She's the city's top model. Seen by everyone. Known by no one. She survives by keeping her past sealed tight- every bruise, every secret, every ugly truth locked behind elegance and restraint. Her life is a performance, and she never misses a step. Until she slips... ...and falls straight into the orbit of the man she was taught to despise most. One reckless act- done under the guise of a false persona- sets something irreversible in motion. A line is crossed. A fire is sparked. And the illusion of distance between them shatters. That night leaves her with a hangover, and a realization she can't escape. You don't have to die to go to hell. Some men bring it right to you. He is power without conscience. A presence felt more than seen. The devil everyone fears. She is a mess dressed in designer. A voice that refuses to be silenced. The angel everyone envies. Logic says they should never align. That their worlds, their loyalties, and their sins are fundamentally opposed. Nexum says there couldn't be a better fit. 𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱𝐱 𝐁𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐲𝐚𝐥 𝐇𝐨𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐒𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧 @xplicitlyvenus 2025, all rights reserved

Locked out of heaven by JadenGuyer

BOOK 1 IN THE BOND SERIES Eden De Vries lived in a society where, unless you had money or knew someone who has money, it was best to keep your head down. Unless you had a death wish. A simple class system full of corruption, the police, and money runs her city. The only way out was money or to be bonded to someone with money. Being bonded, which was akin to soulmates, was A load of propaganda and rubbish to a girl just trying to finish high school and survive her less-than-high society father and his druggy friends. When unfortunate circumstances lead her to meet police officer Hayden and control freak CEO Caledon North, everything changes. Apparently, she had a soulmate or two, and apparently, the law dictated that she was stuck with them. This is her 'chance' to be more than another dirty girl on the street. Too bad she's an inconvenience and quite frankly, to them, not wanted. This is a mature, slow-burn romance with multiple lovers the main character doesn't have to choose between. There is slight 'bullying' of the male protagonists to the main character. But obviously, they end up falling harder. ;)
