"I taste you on my lips and
              I can't get rid of you
So I say damn your kiss and
         the awful things you do
You're worse than nicotine."

~Panic! At The Disco

         _______________________________________       

Jamie Brown is an angry teenager. A girl who walks through life with a scowl on show and fists clenched for a fight. 

Travis Romero is in his second year of med school. Ambitious as he is, he dives headfirst into adventure, enjoying the rush of the unknown, open to all the possibilities. 

One night, he encounters a blank dark-haired girl with an alluring gaze and seductive presence. Raven. 

One night, Jamie meets an enticing man with a smile made to stop the hearts and gentleness she has yet to comprehend. Travis. 

For Jamie, Travis is an escape from her reality. 

For Travis, Raven is an enigma he wants to solve. 

As Travis unravels the mystery that is Raven, Jamie feels her control unwinding as long-lost family re-emerges in her life and lies are uncovered. 

Friendship, family, betrayal, love, hate, and all-consuming rage. A roller-coaster that Jamie and Travis have to ride. 

They're in for one hell of a ride.

"Do they not say that a good friendship builds on a ground of lies?" I joke, lightening the mood immediately as his green eyes glint in humor and a smirk falls on his familiar lips. "Do you kiss a lot of your friends, love?" The underlying tones threaten to provoke a blush on my cheeks, but I get myself together. Smirking at him, "Well, of course, is that not the norm?" *********** Dakota Moore is the perfect example of a beautiful disaster. Her wisdom is ready to knock anyone down, her self worth is an exact replica of the way her father raised her, and her pain so intense it screams over every building. She refuses to show anyone what's going on behind closed doors, especially when her lovely father gets the traumatic news that he has an incurable disease. Elijah Black is the spur of the moment kind of guy, he's the one no one ever settles with because of his angry outbursts and rude ways. Even though he throws everyone off, except for when they want sexual advances, he still can't help but feel enthralled by the freckled girl who's hiding so many secrets behind a fake smile. As they clash and try to reject the obvious rush, will they accept their attraction, or is everything just too much? After all, how can two ruined teenagers manage a youthful love without destroying themselves in the process?

Bow-Legged by MalloryHayes1999
17 parts Ongoing Mature
Shall we do an experiment? Hear me out: an enemies-to-lovers where love is complicated but never toxic. Where the female lead knows what she wants and takes it. Where the male lead doesn't growl, rage or slam her into walls. A journey with all the angst, secrets, spice and heartbreak of dark romance without the abuse. Are you ready? ******************************************** It's 1984, Queen on the radio and rage in the streets. Moira Bourne, stretched thin between her nanny job, family drama and university classes, fights for the recognition she deserves. Evander Ward, fresh from a gap year in Europe and eager to prove himself, is ready for redemption. Two people whose paths were never meant to cross. When they do, the collision blows their life to smithereens. ******************************************** "Pass the tea, will you?". It came over me - it being it all, the shame, the anger, the sense of injustice and the nine hours I hadn't slept the night before. Those, maybe, more than anything else, because I reached for said tea and, possessed by that mighty cocktail of resentment, spat in it. I did so making sure he could see it, he could hear it. Then I passed it over to him and waited. His smile, at this point, had turned overjoyed, putting the previous ones to shame, revealing their graft. He had received the answer he was hoping for. He took the cup and chugged it down. Looked me straight in the eye and drunk it all. ******************************************** Fair warning: mentions of racism, ED, assault, sexism, and classism ahead. You know where your limits lie. If you find yourself growing uncomfortable with the content, stop reading.

"Suddenly, I found our faces so close together, I could feel his warm breath caressing my face. It smelt slightly of mint, and an undercurrent that was all Cole-pure masculine goodness.I breathed in deeply, my eyes briefly fluttering closed. God, since when did he smell so good?" Raven has lost everyone. Her mother and twin sister died, her father left, leaving her in alone in the world with powers that she barely understands. All that Raven has left is Cole, her best friend. When a dangerous enemy resurfaces intent on killing Raven, Cole swears he will do all he can to protect her. As the two get pushed closer together, will their combined powers be enough to save them? Will Raven be able to stop her heart from shattering to a thousand pieces? *** Please keep in mind that this is a first draft, and is, for the most part, unedited. I know it's not at its best, but I'm working on it... "Wow, I am so hooked!" "You captivated me from the start..." "The storyline seems very original..." The above were just a few of the comments I received... :) As you can tell, this is also a romance as well as paranormal/fantasy :) hehe Laura__Zalenga owns the right to the picture in the cover...

"I already killed your mother, Cam." As the words left my enemy's mouth like a mocking sneer, I growled under my breath at the mention of my old name. Memories started to boil up that I had been wanting to squash deep into my heart. Bad memories. "As you can guess, I'm here to finish the job." He continued with that ever-present sinister smirk on his face. And in that moment, a sudden burst of confidence just appeared within me. Or blatant stupidity. 'I'll take either one.' I silently admitted to myself. I rolled my eyes at his so-called 'threat', not really intimidated in the least. "Yeah, like that went so well the first time. The first time, you fucked up enough to get caught by the police." I pointed out. "The second time, your grown-ass men got their asses handed to them by two teenagers." I snorted at him. "Your odds aren't looking too good here, Berti." ~•~ Losing her father? Lovely. Getting in a car accident with her aunt, uncle, and cousin and being the sole survivor? Fantastic. Losing her mother because a deranged psychopath holds a grudge even better than The Grinch? Amazing. Being ostracized from her own family save from her paternal grandparents, and getting the blame for her mother's death? Cherry on top of the cake. Having to make sure three idiotic twats don't get themselves killed because they couldn't mind their own bloody business? Bloody hell, that's an entire ice cream cake with ten pounds of gummy bears. ~•~ Join Grace Stanton as she faces her demons and the demons of her past all while trying not to commit murder against her three new friends. Fun times. (First book in the Gilded series) ~•~ [#1 Streetracer - 4/21/21] [#1 Gangs - 9/16/21] [#1 Boxer - 9/12/21] [#1 Fighter - 12/11/21] [#2 Boxing - 9/3/21] [#1 Girlpower - 2/12/21]

**THIS BOOK HAS BEEN PUBLISHED. THIS IS JUST A SAMPLE.** Nova: It was only supposed to be a one-night stand. Now I can't get him out of my head. Liam Stewart is everything I've ever wanted. He's kind, sweet, caring. One of the best men I've ever met. My past is tragically dark, though, and that's the whole problem. Grief is a shadow that's clung to me for five years, leaving me in a cloud of distrust, covering me in fear. Like a knife in my heart, they bleed me dry, preventing me from loving again. But Liam's a fighter - in and out of the ring. He caught me by surprise. With nothing short of a major blow to my heart, he swooped right in and changed everything I've known. I want to let him in, let him love me, let him fight for me. I want to fight for him. Will I get hurt again? Or will it be worth the hit? Liam: Nova Black is a total knockout-one I didn't see coming. She's beautiful, bold and strong, and that's a deadly combination. If only she'd realize it. My trust is hard to come by. Too many people have ulterior motives, but not her. The more time we spend together, my guard comes down. But hers only seems to go up. I want to be the person she needs, if she'll let me. Our chance encounter wasn't by chance at all, we're meant for each other-flaws, fears and all. She wants to run. But I always fight for what I want, and that's her. Can I convince her that this is worth fighting for? Worth Fighting For is a complete standalone. This mature sports romance novel contains strong language, explicit sexual content, and topics that may be triggering for some readers. Reader discretion is advised.
