Some things, you realise, don't turn out the way you expect them to be. Things change, like people change.
My name is Roxanne. I'm Maltese. (No, I'm not a dog. Maltese is a nationality.) (Google it.) Sometimes life in Malta can be boring and you can rarely ever break out of the cycle of a repetitive, boring life.
But my only comfort, my best friend Cam, decided she needed to go off alone on her own adventure and told me that she's taking part in a European exchange program.
But... An exchange with who?

"Remember how wet you were when you decide to start avoiding me again. Remember how you came all over me. Remember how you felt in this exact moment because I know you'll deny it." - She knew falling in love with him was wrong. She still fell anyway. Now she will have to live with the debt of temptation - When Poppy witnesses a robbery gone wrong and gives evidence to the police to catch the perpetrators, she finds herself in witness protection after discovering the criminals are part of a dangerous gang. But when her witness protection comes to an end, she is soon captured by the gang leader and told she'll give eight years of her life for the man who was sentenced to prison for the same amount of time. Poppy is forced to work for the spiteful leader, Rexx, who uses her natural beauty to swindle valuable information from wealthy men for his own benefit. She's been counting down the seconds until her freedom. When she stumbles across Gabriel Dalton, the underboss to the mafia, he's charming, attractive and tempting. Poppy expects him to be like the rest, only ever after one thing. But that's when Gabriel proves her wrong. After Rexx discovers her acquaintance with Gabriel, he demands that she spies on him to get information about his family and business. Reluctantly she wants to say no, but she has no choice. If she fights it, she'll get hurt-or worse. As Poppy becomes closer to Gabriel, she doesn't expect to fall for him. And little does he know, she's been lying to him this whole time. There is only one thing Gabriel absolutely despises and that is heartless backstabbers. Tropes: - mafia romance - forced proximity - who did this to you? - angst/betrayal - dual POV - spice with some kinks 18+Complete
Because of Haven Beach
"The moon's really beautiful, if you think about it," I blurted. "Yeah?" he asked, mild amusement and curiosity mingling in his voice. "Yeah," I confirmed. "It's just- there's something about the moon that's ethereal. I don't really know how to describe it, but it's a constant in life. You can't always see it, but you have to trust that it's out there somewhere. And when you can see it, it's all bright and shiny and overcomes the darkness." I paused, searching for the right words. "I don't know. I guess it's a reminder that there are good things out there, even if you can't see them... And it's cool to think that someone hundreds of miles away is staring at the exact same moon as you. It makes me feel not so alone in life." Turning my head, I saw him staring at me intently with a thoughtful look on his face. "Too deep for a Friday night?" I laughed nervously, feeling my face grow hot. And this was precisely why I didn't go to parties. He shook his head and seemed to snap out of his daze. "It was deep in a good way." *** SHE was quiet & left out.

The Day I Turned Into a Cat (Completed)
Have you ever wished to spend your days sitting in the sun? Not having to care about anyone or anything? Never having to worry about make-up, boys, clothes, money, or family? Well then I, Rachel Robby, can relate. I fact, I wished the very same thing upon a shooting star. Well, I thought it was a shooting star, but it could have been an airplane. Or maybe, if you believe in aliens, you would have thought of it to be a UFO. Anyways, my wish came true. So here I am, stuck in my cat Dexter's body, when I'm actually supposed to be sipping on a margarita on a white sandy beach in Maui for my yearly vacation. Either way, I still get relax and I'm even starting to enjoy my life. That is, until I find out that I'm not the only person-gone-animal. So for now, I'm trying to find a way to get not only myself, but also my new companion, back into human form before the cat drags in something even worse.Complete

Undercurrents (Tyler Gossard)
Camilla Huang had been lost in the undercurrents of her life. It had been nearly a year since her world was knocked off kilter, nearly a year since she lost her best friend to the waves. Camilla was left behind in the foamy wreckage, scrambling to make sense of the tragedy, scrambling to make sense of her life as it was now. There was one thing that her best friend loved more than anything else in the world: the precious sea turtles found at their favorite beach in Malibu. Camilla realized she had to follow her best friend's footsteps in the sand and help save the sea turtles. She teamed up with a local college student and petitioned the city of Malibu to give them an office and a platform -- and they were given it! They soon got to work in the same building as Malibu Junior Rescue, both groups working to save the people and animals that flocked to Malibu Beach. After she found her best friend's bucket list, Camilla knew she had to do one thing: complete everything on the bucket list, no matter how hard it was. With the help of her new friends at Malibu Junior Rescue, she knew she could tackle each and every dream and actually live again, just like her best friend would have wanted. And maybe, just maybe she would fall in love with this crazy thing called life -- and even with a cute boy named Tyler -- in the process. Camilla Huang had a borrowed dream. She lived a borrowed life. It was up to her to keep those dreams afloat above the waves. It was up to her to live life for the two of them.![Security Breach X Half Blind Child!

It Began In Italy | ✔️
One last trip with her family before she goes to University. Her intentions for this trip were to spend every minute making memories and savouring the last moments she'd get with her family before she moved away. She did this, just not with who she had planned. In the Italian sun it's easy to make rash decisions and to have a lapse in judgement. Especially when a man, you've only just met, comes into play. When he's showing you the island and teaching you Italian, how can you not fall madly in love? With three weeks to spend, will she let herself fall head over heels for a guy she will most likely never see again, or will she stick with her former plan and come to her senses?Complete
Ask Nico di Angelo | √
This is an ask book where you can comment different question/challenges to me, the lovely little Italian Death Angel. Send me questions on anything you would like to know; I'll do my best to answer them. (Please refrain from super sexual anything because I am a fifteen year old virgin gay boy in his first ever relationship.) I will also be adding random thoughts and ideas that come to my head, but they won't come as often as ask answers. Thank you, Nico di Angelo.Complete
