Wanting to remain a young, free lady in the colonial American South is simply impossible. You must marry especially if you are part of the Bellemont family, perhaps one of the most wealthy families and producers of tobacco in Virginia. For their daughter, they have arranged a courtship between her and the dashing son of another wealthy family. Forced to comply, the young woman keeps her mouth shut and her mind open, but what happens when this well-off son does unspeakable things to the Bellemont's daughter? Will her family hear her pleas for help, or will she be stuck in a relationship with the vilest of men for all of eternity? With little social skills, extreme verbal abuse, and unbearable physical torture, the wealthiest of daughters confides in an unlikely friend who is there for her because no one else is. There is only one flaw that keeps her from her friend: status.

Clouding My Judgement by Lightblue44

[Completed] Book 1 in The 'Three Words' Series - A/N I know this book isn't written the best and low-key cringe, it was one of my first, sorry. Naomi is a 18 year old university student, studying fashion marketing in first year attempting to make friends, have a good time and get a degree. Theo is a 21 year old first year university student studying accounting and finance, he was the epitome of the typical popular white boy who got all the girls and was the star football player. Halls, the place in uni where everything happens. Naomi lived in 156c and Theo lived in 157b, they were next door neighbours. Their flats became friends, but they didn't, they constantly argued and did not get along. **This book will have mature content in it, including sex scenes, drugs and alcohol. There is no mature tag in order for the book to be able to gain more traction** Weed and alcohol clouded his system as he watched her, only her. She moved her hips like no other girl in the flat, she was mesmerising. Nothing like the girls at home. She did a slut drop, slowly bringing herself back up in such a sensual way, peering up from her lashes to look up into his eyes and his only. Everything stopped. It was just them two in the kitchen. They forgot everyone else. The tension was thick, he wanted her. No, he needed to fuck her.

That's what makes you so delightful.❜ ****** Desperate for a fresh start, Josephine and her family move to the coastal town of Nags Head, North Carolina. Tragedy after tragedy, Josephine is isolated and spiraling closer to the empty void of a sky that used to glow with stars but now is devoid of light.

I Fell in Love with a Bad Boy by Beautiful_Tragedy8

CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.

I Might Need You by KHstories2

I swipe away a piece of hair falling in front of her face. I watch as she sleeps softly. She is all that matters to me now. She is every beat. Every breath. Every dream. Everything. You normally have those stories, where the good girl falls in love with the bad boy. He hurts her and breaks her heart multiple times. This is the complete opposite. Nova Dixon isn't someone to be friends with, and definitely not one to fall in love with. Dustin Clark breaks those rules, and decides that Nova is his new drug, his addiction. No matter how hard he tries to stay away, it isn't possible. He wants her. Needs her even. But she cant give him what he wants. **I know there seems to be a lot of chapters, but most of my chapters are 1000-2000 words. Only a few of them have more** 200,000-220,000 word count
