An Enemies to Lovers Romance:

When Kate is forced to move back home to boarding school only to be confronted by the school's infamous bad boy and her childhood bully, she is quickly reminded of the reasons she wanted to leave so desperately in the first place- her cheating ex boyfriend being one of those reasons. 

However, Kate finds herself put in multiple precarious positions with Lachlan and faces questions about their quick changing relationship.

Tortured with past family secrets and the question of her parentage and the danger that accompanies that knowledge, Kate is in more peril than ever, and this blooming romance between her and a boy who used to make her life a living hell isn't helping with her confusion and fear.  

Can she push past the reservations she holds against Lachlan and truly let him into her heart to face the danger together, or will they be forever stained by the afterglow of the traumatic past and damage that she refused to share with anyone besides herself?All Rights Reserved

The Bad Boy Has A Soft Spot by infiniteflames_789

Oil doesn't mix with water, we were taught that when the teacher was ranting about the basic laws of science. It doesn't combine just like how light is always separate from the darkness. But what if they unified? In one word, disaster! This happened to a senior and a freshman at university. With the boundless arrogance of a wealthy and powerful heir combined with the neverending will for justice of a mundane, they declared arch-nemesis against each other and waged war. But after a particular red stain, black notes, an alligator and a bucketload of glue later, she will have to persist in denial and he will have to learn to be less possessive to soothe their growing affection for each other. The question is, will they give in? *in the process of editing and rewriting
