"You're a fucking liar."
"Aren't we all liars?"

If there's one thing Cassandra Defensor was sure of her entire life, is that she wanted nothing more than to get that prestigious "Atty." title before her name. At a young age, she's trained herself to manifest the power of perfection within her. Andra only had two options: to be #1 or nothing at all. 

For her, there was no room for mistakes. Not when she has a vendetta to take down the country's most corrupt politicians. Especially those who took her brother's life.

But, what happens when she crosses paths with Xavier Alleje, the privileged son of an infamous senator, in law school? When he breaks down her heavily guarded walls and secrets of their families are unveiled, will they be strong enough to handle the truth? Or will they end up seeing each other on the opposite sides of court?

Residuals (COMPLETED) by jaytheeauthor

"I just can't stand Ben anymore." She admitted truthfully, and maybe she would have kept this information to herself if she wasn't drunk. "All he does is drink and plays video games, we don't sleep together, he hasn't touched me in almost a year I'm 35 years old and I know my marriage is failing." She vented to her best friends. She'd been holding that in for months, she didn't want to continuously tell her friends how unhappy she was in her marriage, she just didn't want to be that friend. "He doesn't come to anything the kids are involved in, but you know who is there?" Isabella asked. "Ambrose." Monica answered noticing it herself, she made sure to make it to her god children's games and or dance competitions whenever she wasn't working. She noticed that Ambrose was at all the games and dance competitions cheering them on, he was always helping them practice, he was good with all 3 of Isabella's kids it was hard not to notice how they'd clung onto him. "Is it wrong that I still felt the same way I did in high school?" Isabella asked, she'd finally admitted it out loud and she knew for sure in that moment she was indeed still in love with him, and she fought this hard. "Izzy, you still love Ambrose?" Tory asked, shocked.

When an ambitious lawyer is blindsided by her billionaire boss announcing their fake engagement, she must play along to save her best friend's life, but as their rivalry ignites into passion, the real danger is falling for the man she swore to hate. ---------------------- Sofia Reyes has spent the last two years clawing her way up the ranks at Kingston & Co., the most prestigious law firm in NYC. She's put up with late nights, impossible deadlines, and worst of all, her insufferably hot boss, Xavier Kingston. But it's all been worth it because tonight, at the firm's biggest event of the year, she's finally getting her dream award. Just as she's about to step onto the stage to claim her well-earned moment of victory, Xavier drops a bombshell, announcing to the entire elite gathering that they're madly in love and engaged to be married. Sofia swore she'd never fall for Xavier's smug, ruthless charm - especially when his history with her best friend and their class difference make it feel undeniably forbidden. But with the world watching and fate pulling them together, their rivalry turns into something far more dangerous. The only thing riskier than saying I do to the man she hates... is realizing she might actually want to. PS. Credit to the appropriate creator on Pinterest for the cover.

From the moment I was born, I lived with an abusive father who blamed me for my mother's death, and even I couldn't disagree with him. Here are a few questions I am constantly asked: 'Do I do well in school?' No, are you kidding me? The only subject I'm good at is Visual Arts. 'Do I have a kind and caring family?' No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?' No, if you haven't understood the message yet, I live in an abusive household. Now, you might ask if there are any questions the answer is yes. I'll give you some. 'Do I want to die?' Yes, I sometimes do. 'Do I feel alone in this world?' Yes, always. 'Do I get a beating every day?' Yes. *** This is Amara Williams, a 13 year-old with average grades and no friends. What happens when her only guardian, her dad, is dead? What happens when she finds out that she has five older brothers who are not only strict and demanding, but also protective assholes?
