Kat Taylor plays by the rules. Christopher Jacobs only follows one - always ask yourself: why the hell not? When Kat meets CJ during a critical time in her college career, CJ changes the way she thinks about everything, especially love.
----------------
Kat is a worrier. With every decision, she sees a list of all the things that could go wrong. So she plays it safe, avoiding risk at all costs. But as she works her way through her junior year of college, Kat can't help but feel dissatisfied with her life. What if making all the safe decisions her parents would approve of actually wasn't right for her at all?
CJ can't seem to catch a break. He's in the middle of dealing with a lifetime's worth of bad decisions when he meets Kat. Suddenly, CJ finds himself not just wishing to be better, but trying to be. No matter how hard he tries, he can't help but wonder: What if some mistakes are truly unforgivable?
When their worlds collide and Kat's heart is on the line, she must face her most life altering decision. Is it better to be safe... or to be wild?

Facade Of Perfectionism
'Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by' -William Shakespeare _______________________________________________________ Maya Matthews is the description of perfection, or as she has been addressed. She excels in every field she steps her foot into, be it from her perfect grades to being the best daughter a parent could ask for, you name it. Her tenderness is what attracts every guy's attention. She seems to have everything she could ask for. What could possibly be wrong with her near to perfect life? Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth. Maya has her demons that she desperately attempts to hide from the world that not a single soul knows about. Shawn Daniels is the perfect storm and the missing puzzle in Maya's life. He is the polar opposite of Maya. Smart, confident, and witty. He's often misunderstood for a bad boy, who has quite a handful of girls swooning over him. He's a carefree soul. He is the yin to her yang. What happens when they cross paths and Shawn unleashes Maya's dark secrets? Will he succeed in his mission to pull Maya out of her past, and show what life has to offer? But life is certainly not a bed of roses and nothing comes as easy. _______________________________________________________ They say love can overcome anything. You never exactly know when it will strike and turn your life upside down. Love will make you doubt every single thing that you believe in yet you will find yourself drowning in it slowly, very slowly but deeply. _______________________________________________________ All rights reserved © 2020-Shrya1712Concluída

A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 1
If you're given a chance to live once more, will you take it? Even if... it comes at a cost? A dying woman reminisces on her short life and comes to regret not doing the things she likes - always sacrificing her own happiness for her family. On her deathbed, she whispers her wishes to a friend. "If only I could go back in time, I'll make sure to live my life for my sake and not somebody else's." Little did she know that her impossible wish would come true with the help of a mysterious woman. And in her second chance at life, she meets a certain problematic person... "Kaiden Ma" - a young and handsome genius who is also the richest heir in the East - has a little problem. One - he is way too grumpy; and two - he is mysophobic. With his family pushing him in a relationship, the problem escalated. For how can he possibly be in a relationship if he can't even touch anyone? Due to this, he is forced to look for a suitable "pretend" partner. "Senara Lee. I'd like to offer you a deal." "Hm? A deal? What deal?" "I need a fake girlfriend and you're the only one who's trustworthy enough to assume the position. Be my girlfriend for a year and I'll make one of your books into a movie." "For real?! You bet I'm in! Anything for my babies!" (babies - she's referring to her books, yes, she calls them her babies). And so, their hilarious and catastrophic game begins. Well, at least until the "Guardians of Fate" comes in. What will they do with this romance that wasn't supposed to be? And what is the cost of this new life she was given? 🌸 𝘼 𝘽𝙚𝙖𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙛𝙪𝙡 𝘾𝙖𝙩𝙖𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙥𝙝𝙚 𝙎𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙨 🌸 ✅ A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 1 🟨 A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 2 🟥 A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 3 - 4Concluída
