Frederica Brubaker has never had a second date. 

As for the reasons-that's tough for even Freddie to understand. It's not like she's a two-headed monster.  

Sometimes, she thinks the idea of "dates" is outdated. Sometimes, she's not sure if her method of counting is remotely legit. Even so, she'll know when she has one-a second meeting where the chemistry and connection are still strong. Most days, she thinks she has mutated DNA, passed on by her mother Felicity O'Hara, who is on her fourth-possibly-fifth husband, unable to hang on to a man, despite being the star of the reality TV show The Matchmaker. 

In the summer following her college graduation, Freddie takes a job on the show as a Production Assistant to make ends meet until she can find a job in her field. She absolutely, positively does not want to be a guest on the show, even if a certain squisito Italian guest has caught her eye. Meanwhile, her mother-a diva since childbirth-has other ideas, which involve finding a second date and the perfect match for Freddie.   

Miss Matched is an irresistible, feel-good romantic comedy that will appeal to fans of reality shows like The Bachelor and Love Island.

Mafia, Mayhem & Maybe-Visions by Yimora_Alvy
8 parts Ongoing
Zia, a feisty Polynesian island girl with a secret ability to see the future, has found herself in the worst possible situation-sold into a high-end secret brothel in Italy, where foreign girls are auctioned off to the criminal elite. Luckily, the owners are keeping their "goods fresh," meaning she and the others haven't been touched. But time is running out. Then, she gets a vision: Jax Vinci, a devastatingly handsome CEO and one of the most feared mafia bosses alive, is about to storm in and burn the whole operation to the ground. Jackpot. That's her way out. With nothing but pure nerve (and let's be real-desperation), Zia sneaks out of captivity and straight into the VIP room of the dangerous crime lord himself, dropping the bombshell: "I know you're about to obliterate this place in an hour" Jax is unimpressed. Why believe a random, barely-dressed girl in the middle of a human auction? But Zia isn't backing down. "I'll be useful." She swears. Famous last words. Sure, Jax saves her-and the other girls-but let's get one thing straight: he's no knight in shining armor. Ruthless? Balanced on the razor-thin edge between calculated sociopathy and unhinged psycopathy? Zia is stuck with a man who treats emotions as an afterthought and intimidation like an art form. Surviving him is one thing. Keeping up? That's another. And falling for the dark brooding mafia boss who just might be worse than the monsters he destroyed? (Yeah... she's in trouble) (All characters and events in this story are purely fictional. Any resemblance to real people, living or dead, is purely coincidental.)

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused. "Working with my new boss is going to be a piece of work." ** Synopsis: When the CEO of Signature Heights: Jensen Black, and a stubborn employee: Alexandra Brook, clash, it's a battle of wits & a war of perseverance.

"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.
