Almost three years ago, Madeline Lace moved from her childhood home in Chicago, and into her new home in Oregon Ohio.
Leaving behind the bustling city, painful memories, and the people who inflicted those painful memories, her and her brothers made a fresh start.
Not only did she grow, learning what kind of person she wanted to be, but her family grew in the most amazing ways imaginable as well.
She met the man of her dreams, the cocky Sam who slowly became the only person she could imagine herself loving for the rest of her life, and her best friend who brought life into every room with her smile and contagious bubbly personality.
After high school, her life changes drastically.
Now, balancing college classes, a job, spending time with her family, unwanted people resurfacing, and her relationship with Sam, things get more stressful than she anticipated.
Everything will be fine, though.
Right?

This is the sequel to my first book, undeniable. I guess you could read this one on its own, but it's gonna make a lot more sense if you read the first book.
Thank you so much to @meha-k for not only making this cover, but also the cover for Undeniable! (which is why they're so gosh darn cute and look perfectly similar, while also being distinctly different <3) This girl is so talented and such a sweetheart, I will never refrain from recommending her to anyone and everyone!

Sebastian Bear (complete)
"No, dearest." Sebastian smiled revealing a set of perfectly white teeth. "I am quite real. Care to have a touch?" His eyebrows went up emphatically. Madeline let out a breath she'd been holding for quite some time. She took two careful steps toward him, reaching out and poking his forearm with her index finger. He was warm, deliciously so. "Not exactly what I had in mind but whatever works for you, sweetheart." Sebastian shrugged playfully. Madeline moved further away, her eyebrows in knots above her puffy eyes. "So where are we sleeping?" "We?" She stuttered. What was going on? Her mind was full of overwhelming questions. Had she finally fallen off the deep end? Sure, she had been super sad, more down than she remembered being in a very long time, but she didn't think she had pushed herself to the extreme of hallucinating. "Yes, we." Sebastian was standing then. His height was impressive. She stumbled back with his nearness. He laughed, shaking his head. He really did find her to be quite amusing. Her nervousness made her all the more interesting. "Did you not miss me, Madsy?" Sebastian teased. "Because I most definitely missed you." Madeline Hunter is abandoned after graduation by her best and only friend Nolan Sinclair. Upon his leaving, her mind is flooded with visions from her past. With no one left to distract her from the miserable memories, she is visited by an old, slightly invisible friend that she hadn't thought about in years. Sebastian Bear is no longer the little boy she went on adventures with as a child. He has grown up and is eager to show her how much. Cover design by Lindsfrantz !Lengkap
Settling Slowly
2015 rolled in with a bang, and it did not have the grace to gift me with a social life that everyone in a one hundred year radius would be jealous of or that is even just the talk of the town. Instead I got myself into a complicated relationship which wasn't much talked about, a relationship that I didn't get into is talked about all the time and university is around the figurative corner. That is where you can factor in people I suppose I should call 'fans', the fascination that comes in with cutlery, pots, pans and other formerly boring things. But let us not forget that my parents are finally getting married and Mum can't shop for lace without me wanting to kill her, add in a dose of sleepless nights, invigorating kisses - which have nothing to do with the sleepless nights and a lot to do with nightmares - Harriet not knowing the meaning of the words "you're done" and Ice Ice Baby is still a thing. We're all growing up (except Dad who will still make inappropriate jokes at every inappropriate moment, some to do with what cannot be done when you're wearing a plaster cast) and holidays are being planned though some are less holiday and more a mad dash to find somewhere to live out in the big wide world without our parents. Life might be moving on, but I still go to McDonald's late at night with my friends. Some things at least don't change. Sequel to: Falling Fast CompleteLengkap

What's That Supposed To Mean? - Werewolf Romance
Samantha Riley has been a tomboy ever since she could walk and her parents divorced when she was almost one year old. Twelve years later, she wants to go visit her mother in New York but the visit becomes five years. Samantha, now seventeen and certainly not a tomboy anymore, is ready to go back to Ohio, to her family and friends, but mostly to her father. No one expects her, though, to come back looking like a a new person. But looking like a goddess does not change the fact that she is still mateless and also next in line for the Alpha position, a huge responsibility. Noah Black has lived in Ohio for as long as he can remember, with his six brothers and father. His mother died giving birth to her youngest son, Thresh. Noah has always been the one to pull pranks and tease Samantha, making her life miserable as they grew up together. When she left, there was no one else to annoy, but now, five years later, when Noah hears that she is coming back, he thinks that she is still that same tomboy who can't stand up for herself. He has become even more of a badboy now, loving all the trouble and the girls that throw themselves at him. And yes, he is mateless and, just because his older brother passed it down, is next in line for the Alpha position. So what happens when they meet again, five years later, more grown and more mature? Is there hatred between them, still? And what happens when they both realize they are connected in ways they never could've dreamed of? Suck at summaries, give it a chance, y'all! :)Lengkap
Destined By Fate
Kendall has always lived a quiet life in a small town in Illinois with her family, friends, and boyfriend Jordan. Her life had been mostly happy other than when her best friend moved away when she was 10. It took her years to get over that loss. Then several years later, tragedy struck when her father passed away suddenly and Kendall was forced to move with her mom closer to Chicago where she could find a job to support the two of them. Little does Kendall know that she is in for the surprise of a lifetime. From the book.... As he catches up to me, he grabs my arm swings me around and with one swift movement he ushers me into a nearby empty classroom with the lights off. He cages me in against the wall. His close proximity is making me dizzy and my mind is thinking very dirty thoughts. Wait no. I can't think like that anymore. "Kendall." He says hungrily. "You are mine and only mine. You drive me wild and no one else can have you." He says as he attacks my lips. It feels so amazing I can't help but kiss him back. I run my hands through his beautiful hair and he groans into the kiss. Man I don't want this to ever end. I feel drunk on him. I don't think I can let him go. He stops suddenly to finish his thoughts. "No one can make you feel like this. Or kiss you here...." He says as he kisses down my neck. I moan and he smirks pulling his face impossibly close to mine. "..or touch you." He says as he takes his hand and brushes it lightly down my arm and he snakes it back around my back pulling me even closer if that is possible. He finally stops at my ass which he squeezes delightfully and I hum in response. Warning: Contains graphic sexual content. Read at your own discretion. You will not be warned ahead of time.

When We Found Us (The South Grove Shores Series Book 2)
Josette Wilde never imagined her happy ending would start with her house burning down. Once a hopeless romantic who believed in grand gestures and cinematic kisses, Jo learned the hard way that real life rarely follows a script. When the man she thought was her forever walked out the moment she told him she was pregnant, Jo was left to rewrite her story-this time as a single mother to a fearless little girl named Hannah. Years later, just as Jo lands the kind of job that could finally give them the life they deserve, disaster strikes-her home is destroyed in a freak accident, leaving her and Hannah with nothing but each other. With no place to go, Jo turns to the last person she ever expected to lean on: Mitchell Harris, her charming, fiercely protective childhood friend. He offers them a place to stay, and Jo accepts-grateful, but uneasy. She's been secretly crushing on him for the last couple of years, and living under the same roof only blurs the lines she's fought for years to keep in place. As Jo and Mitchell fall into an unexpected rhythm-shared meals, whispered laughter, stolen glances-the life Jo always dreamed of suddenly feels within reach. But just as her heart begins to hope again, the past shows up at her front door. Hannah's father wants back in, claiming he's ready to be a father and fix what he broke. Now, Jo is faced with an impossible choice: return to the familiar comfort of a love that once betrayed her, or risk everything on the man who just might be her forever-if she's brave enough to believe in a new beginning.Lengkap
The Ascent Between
Kiara Steele, a twenty-four-year-old girl, never dreamed her wedding would be sealed with silence instead of love. At twenty-four, she finds herself married to Samuel Stone, an aloof billionaire CEO, eighteen years her senior, a widower with no children, only to save her father's collapsing company. Their union is nothing more than a contract: no touch, no feelings, no expectations. But living under the same roof with a man carved from ice proves far more complicated than Kiara imagined. Samuel keeps his distance, haunted by the loss of his late wife, while Kiara struggles against the loneliness of a loveless home. For six months, they live as strangers bound by vows neither of them wanted. Until one unexpected night breaks every rule.

Period!
"I... Am here to see you.", I told him as I placed my hands around his neck. I could feel my heart beat getting faster but I had to keep it strong if I had to survive this scenario. "What?", Brandon asked completely startled. I leaned in more closer to him. The only good thing in this entire scene was that he wasn't pushing me back due to my creepy behaviour. "Oh... Bran, I was missing you so much, I just... I needed to see you.", I said as I came up with lie. "Are you drunk?", Brandon asked as he leaned in closer trying to smell my mouth. Thank God Fel had given me her mint gum only moments before I went commando and came inside the locker room. "What?", I scoffed still standing extremely close to Brandon. "I just.... I was missing your gorgeous face.", I told another lie. But wait? His face is gorgeous so that isn't a lie. And was I not missing seeing him? I noticed Brandon who just had his eyes popped out of his socket with bewilderment at my words. I decided to peck him on the cheek before I storm out of the locker room. I leaned ahead to peck Brandon who moved his face in my direction and instead of his cheeks, our lips crashed. Brushing against each other, our lips touched. I could feel fireworks exploding inside my entire body. With my neurological system not responding anymore. ******* Depicting the hostility and vulnerability of a young woman to a society the story centers around a normal sophomore, Amy Cole, who had a normal life.
