Emma Clark is the star of Springfield High School where her and her small family nearly resides, and having her parents as the owners of Clark Enterprises, puts her in the position of being the most popular and richest. She also has a bubbly helpful personality, successful parents, outstanding academics, and her incomparable boyfriend, Nathan, which only adds to her overall "perfect" image.
But no one knows what happens behind closed doors.
In secret, she has been trying to keep her parents satisfied, but soon realizes she's basically living for them, figuratively burying her into the ground daily. Unfortunately for her, it's too late to change that.
Or so she thinks.
In her senior year, she meets the famous Mateo Williams, a closed-off transfer student from the opposite side of town since his father decided to have his new wife and son live with them.
With tattooes that covers his right sleeve, a nose piercing that makes him look heavenly delicious, and baby blue eyes that charms ladies of all ages, he has the bad boy persona everyone wants to come close to yet run away from.
Having his psychopathic thoughts and ideas as a bestfriend carved the wrong lifestyle into him and by his junior year he was known for everything. Needed weed or alcohol? He had it. Wanted to sleep with random girls? So did he. Wanted to vandalize property? He had the tools in his trunk.
These two crashing in the same place coming from two completely different worlds is uniquely uncommon but with all of their circumstances working against them, they realize love, trust, and relations can be corrupted in the most craziest ways.
Will they overcome their given obstacles together, or will they forever hide behind the facades they have made to keep their reputations lasting?
Welcome to their Perfectly Imperfect love story.

"When I tell you that he hates me, you'll probably assume it's because he's a jerk...but you'd be wrong. He's not a jerk. I am." --- Several years ago tragedy struck Emma's home, leaving her broken... like a cup with cracks spiraling and slithering around the edges. Slowly, bitterness crept in like tar, hardening between each fracture to resemble a deceitful wholeness. She became a monster, and targeted her venom on the sweetest person she could find: Trinity Nixon. Too bad the boy Emma longed for was Trinity's brother. Now, as Emma fights to win the heart of the boy who despises her, she's forced to hide her demons. She paints her fragile cup in pinks, yellows, and oranges - all the colors of the sun. She paints on a smile, and an unusual sense of humor, so that the world will view her as bright and cheerful, when in reality she's breaking. But she's completely unprepared for the acidic truth that melts away the tar, demolishing her shell, and awakening the Emma White buried deep inside. --- Book 1 in The Dismantled Pride series *Story was previously titled "Faking It"Complete

'Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by' -William Shakespeare _______________________________________________________ Maya Matthews is the description of perfection, or as she has been addressed. She excels in every field she steps her foot into, be it from her perfect grades to being the best daughter a parent could ask for, you name it. Her tenderness is what attracts every guy's attention. She seems to have everything she could ask for. What could possibly be wrong with her near to perfect life? Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth. Maya has her demons that she desperately attempts to hide from the world that not a single soul knows about. Shawn Daniels is the perfect storm and the missing puzzle in Maya's life. He is the polar opposite of Maya. Smart, confident, and witty. He's often misunderstood for a bad boy, who has quite a handful of girls swooning over him. He's a carefree soul. He is the yin to her yang. What happens when they cross paths and Shawn unleashes Maya's dark secrets? Will he succeed in his mission to pull Maya out of her past, and show what life has to offer? But life is certainly not a bed of roses and nothing comes as easy. _______________________________________________________ They say love can overcome anything. You never exactly know when it will strike and turn your life upside down. Love will make you doubt every single thing that you believe in yet you will find yourself drowning in it slowly, very slowly but deeply. _______________________________________________________ All rights reserved © 2020-Shrya1712Complete
Beneath
His lips trail down my neck, sending shivers all over. "I love looking at you," he breathes, brushing the hair off my shoulders. "Will you let me?" My wild heart seeks his. "Yes." For a long moment, I just feel his gaze. Then, his hands. They skim down my spine as his lips find my throat. I lean back into his palms, my eyes closing. He kisses between my breasts, then across them, swirling his tongue and kissing, always kissing. He pulls my arms out to kiss them, all the way to my wrists...all the way back. He presses affection into my skin, injects trust into my veins. Then he eases me to my back and does it all over again. ******* An obscure tutoring opportunity brings Camila closer to three friends: Noah, Jed, and Fox. After hiding in the shadows for so long, Cam is coaxed to the light. STANDALONE NOVEL Copyright © 2024-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).
