~Emma and Jayden~

If romance were a religion, Jayden would be an atheist. His belief in love, the greatest myth of all time was the one thing he lacked to near perfection. 
A nonbeliever of love, who looks upon romantic fictions with disgust. 

As he crosses paths with Emma, the perfect girl next door type, both of their lives take a rapid turn. 
Just as Jayden looked upon romance with digust, Emma looked upon Jayden with disgust.
For anyone who chose not to be optimistic, was repulsive in Emma's point of view. 

As the two get entangled in a love hate relationship of their own, resisting the charms of each other becomes a threat. 

What would be their story? 
More importantly, is time in their favour??? 

Guess you'll have to find out on your own!



{SNEAK PEEK}
.................................................................

"Stop." I manage to find my voice. "What are you trying to do?" 

He bends down, to look me in the eyes. 
Both his palms resting on the counter by my sides. 

My hands went cold, and I felt the heat on my face. 
He doesn't move his eyes away from mine. 

Finally he smirks. 

"You know you are stupid for trying to live in a fairytale. Right?"

"I'm not." I speak. "But I'm also not as insensitive as you are."

Kiss with a fist (completed) by vgcampos

"What's your name?" He tries again. Should I tell him so he can shut up? Or will he just keep talking. "Fine. Don't tell me. But personally I think we are going to be great friends. Maybe I should tell you a bit about myself so you can trust me. Stranger danger and all that. That's why you're not talking to me right?" I don't respond. "So here it goes. My name is Alexander Daniel Woods. I have amazing black hair and piercing green eyes as told to me by various ladies. My major is in marketing. My blood type is O positive, my social security number is 45-" "Oh my god, do you ever shut up?"

Haven's Knight (Sample of Published Book) by ReganUre

When I was a little girl, I believed in fairy tales. I believed in princes and princesses and knights in shining armor. I believed in forever and happily ever afters. I was ten when reality hit me. My mom brought the evil home with her and there was no escaping it. That's when I learned that fairy tales were just that: fairy tales. The bad stuff is real, though. The difference is that I now know that the monsters and evil villains don't always wear capes and ugly scars. No: most of the time, they appear normal. I'm drowning in reality, in my life, and I've given up hope that a knight in shining armor will rescue me. But maybe... maybe I don't need a Prince Charming after all. Maybe a knight without the shining armor and a broken smile will be enough to save me. *Please note this is only a five chapter sample of the published book.

We Dream at Midnight (Ember 2) by immoralLaurel

Here she is. I can see the slope of her spine through that thin shirt. She's made of angles I ache to smooth with a hand, but I'd use my lips if she asked. I brush her knuckles with mine. Her skin is cold, but she flips her palm for more contact. I lace our fingers. It's enough to make her look at me. As those kaleidoscopic eyes meet mine, I hold my breath. Then she sets her lips just under my jaw. It rips the air from my lungs. It's the softest thing I've ever felt. "What was that for," I breathe. She pulls back, lashes damp, and whispers, "You're the kind of person that should be kissed." 𝙝𝙪𝙧𝙩 𝙥𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 𝙝𝙪𝙧𝙩 𝙥𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 BOOK TWO C O N T A I N S : ❤︎ mature content ❤︎ romance & friendship ❤︎ yearning Copyright © 2021-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).

Knowing Asher by Aridah77

Stephanie Walker, a straight-A student, sweet,pretty, and every parent's dream. What happens when her simple life clashes with the golden boy on her senior year trip? Her last year in high school wasn't going to be as simple as she thought. "Don't let me catch you, cupcake." His voice boomed from downstairs. And I ran looking for where to hide. I shielded myself behind a pole and tried to calm my nerves. Way to go, Stephanie, my subconscious mind chimed in. I held my breath as I heard his footsteps. "Where are you cupcake?" he asked, and I scoffed internally. Like I would tell him where I am. I waited for a few seconds, and I heard nothing. I felt a hand snake around my waist, and I didn't need to turn around to know who it was. "Found you." He whispered into my ear, and a shiver ran down my spine. "How?" I breathed, turning around to face him. And he smirked, knowing the effect he had on me. 'Get your shits together, fool.' I mentally scolded myself. "Do you really want a real or sugarcoated explanation?" he asked, and I gave him a pointed look. "I could smell you a mile away." He whispered, putting a lock of my hair behind my ear, and butterflies fluttered in my stomach. This guy is going to be the death of me. "That is the sugarcoated version." He said, and I blinked a few times. I glared hard at him. "The pole didn't hide you well. I could see your cardigan peeking out." He said, and I rolled my eyes at him. "Now, time for my revenge." He whispered. I had a confused look on while he had his infamous smirk on. This can't be good! I felt something trickle down my body. I wiped my face and glared daggers at him. He didn't just pour flour on me even though I did the same. Isn't he supposed to be the mature one in this relationship? Putting on a poker face. "Mature much!" I said and walked away from him, pretending to be angry. Time for acting! "Come on babe, you can't ..." This book is amazing, so y'all BETTER TRY IT OUT!

"I don't fucking need to tell you anything!" She spat. "I am not leaving until you tell me!" I whispered angrily as I leaned in closer. I felt her stiffening up, and as I felt she will reveal, instead she smirked as she whispered in my ear, "You don't want to do something Aiden, which you might regret later!"

His Key by ramaliarich

My eyes widened as he locked my lips against his gently. Oh Jesus, he stole my first kiss. He kept licking and sucking my lips as if forced me to open my lips. I pushed his chest slowly and it made him wondering. "What's going on, baby?" "I'm afraid that you'll... leave me after then, Tristan." "Who says, baby?" "Nothing." I looked down at my lap. "I'm just afraid because this is my first kiss and you just stole it with no my permit." He let out a soft chuckled, tilting my chin up to look at him. "I stole it because you already stole my heart first. It's worth it, isn't it?" "Did you... try to flirt me?" "I told the truth, sweetheart." He answered solemnly. "If you don't trust me, you can feel that." He instantly kissed me for twice. I could not help but kissed him back. I did not know why suddenly I opened my lips for him. His tongue traveled inside my lips softly, kept sucking and playing with my tongue so gently. Moreover, he kept groaning inside my lips since earlier. I ran my hand through his quiff dark brown hair and maybe his quiff hair was messy already. I overwhelmed with his kissing. He was so unstoppable for kissing me. I kept holding my moaned as could as possible because I was shy if my moaned was so annoyed for him. Slowly, his kissing was getting deeper as if he wanted to eat the whole my lips. And I guessed his love was changed to be desire already. "Tristan." I pushed him on the chest softly. "You're too... quick. I can't kiss you quickly yet." "I'm sorry, baby." He chuckled. "I forgot that I'm your first kiss." "If you're my first kiss... How about me?" I asked cautiously. "Am I your... second kiss? Third?" He smiled. "You're my last."

The Perks Of Falling For Your Bestfriend✔ by Anamtaa

"In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you." -Pride and Prejudice. -Jane Austen. Allison Waters is a girl as simple as they come, atleast that's what she believed. And to be honest she did enjoy a simple life for the past two years. All she wanted to pass her senior year in peace and be happy in life. What she wasn't expecting was to be back in town with a certain Greek God of a Devil acting more annoying than ever... Calling him tall dark and handsome would be the understatement of the century. He is the arrogant quarterback and one of the most popular guys in shcool. He is as I mention previously the reincarnation of the devil in his actions and a Greek God in the looks department, with startling blue eyes, a sinful body and gorgeous hair, who may at different times define the words Cocky and Adorable. Quite a contrast isn't it? Well that's who he is, or for that matter how we all are... a bit of both. Ashton Fobes is Alli's bestfriend, well Ex-Bestfriend, he is also her arch nemisis, her sworn enemy, but he is also the only one who can make her push her limits and challenge her in ways she never thought possible. Soon they were playing with Cupid's arrows trying to set up the unlikeliest couple imaginable, but what they seemed to have forgotten was Fate's wierd sense of humor and so it turned out while they were playing with Cupid's Arrows, he was aiming them at these two instead. Ps: I have now unpublished most of the chapters. Highest Ranking: 30, 35, 50 in teen fiction. 32, 66 in ChickLit. 46, 47, 78 in humor.
