Olivia White was just like every other 18-year-old girl. She had an amazing family who loved her, a sweet boyfriend, and the best of friends. Or at least, that's how it is in her wonderland. In reality, Olivia has no friends, but one Alaskan Malamute bestie, basically no family, and-never in a million years-a boyfriend. She was anti-social, a huge bookworm, and a weirdly obsession with Harry Potter, Star Wars, and Marvel. Who would want that? As far as she knows, no one, but some 6'4 British guy with jet black hair, tattoos, and a motorcycle changes that.

Misconduct
Logan Romano didn't just enter the NHL. He tore through it. Dark. Brooding. Untouchable. With brutal talent and a reputation as cold as the New York winter, Logan dominates both the ice and every room he walks into. He doesn't lose. He doesn't bend. And he certainly doesn't fall in love. Not after the last time. Not until November Levine crashes into his life like a beam of sunlight he never asked for. She's warmth where he's storm clouds. She's soft where he's jagged edges. A walking contradiction to everything Logan swore he needed. When a deal forces the polar opposites under one roof, tensions ignite fast. Teasing turns to feuds. Feuds turn into something dangerously close to desire. And Logan is forced to confront the one promise he's never broken. Because once you step into the light- it's impossible to return. ✩ Grumpy x sunshine • forced proximity • slow burn Will the hockey captain cross that line? ✩ "Nova." I whisper, my voice low and hoarse against her neck. "Stop it." "Stop what." She whimpers back innocently as her thighs tighten around my hips. My teeth nip at the skin on her jaw in warning. "Either stop teasing, or put me out of my fucking misery." November pulls her head back from mine, resting it against the wall, and bats her lashes up at me. "Say please."
Faked
"Are you crazy?! Piss off!" Sam Harrison screams. "You can't turn down an opportunity like this, sweetheart. I know you'd die to be seen with me as your boyfriend. Well, fake boyfriend but no one needs to--" "No uhm id rather not be seen with a conceited douche. But thanks for the offer." "A conceited douche that every single girl in this school adores, yes." Football captain Nate Hadley corrected. "Not every girl." Sam had started walking away but stopped abruptly when Nate spoke. "I know you've been dreaming to study in Hadley University for college. Be mine for a month and you will get what you desire." That statement definitely changed Sam Harrison's life forever by making her decide the craziest decision yet. But it doesn't stop there. #27 ChickLit (11/30/15) **This book was only slightly edited so feel free to pinpoint grammatical errors!**Complete
Law of Attraction
*Being re-published in 2026* ❝You can't deny that you're attracted to me, Nyx. Instead of fighting it, let's see what happens,❞ he grumbled, hands roaming my body. His thumb brushed my bottom lip. ❝Open up for me, baby.❞ -------------------------------------------------------- Nyx just can't seem to escape her eternal night, the very darkness she was named after. She tries to play her cards right, however, the outcome is a paradox. Whilst she obtains the results she wanted, it comes at the expense of some of her relationships. Angry at the world, her hatred is ravenous for none other than Beckham Hunt, captain of the ice hockey team. Beckham loathes Nyx Taylor after what she's done, that much he is certain of. Nobody boils his blood as she does and when she's hired to assist his team during championship season, he discerns that there's more to her story than meets the eye. She was always the villain in his story. But, suddenly she's the plot twist he never saw coming. Each glare and scowl and insult piles up, put under tremendous pressure by their mutual hatred. Yet, peeking through their fury clouded vision, they find the centre of their relationship blazing. Like two rival stars gravitating towards each other, Nyx and Beckham can do nothing when the law of attraction forces them to accept that passion doesn't always mean hatred, but perhaps something more.

I Love to Hate you
-- "You think you're so tough hm?" He says, getting closer to me. Both of our eyes lustful, deep and glued to each other's. "I am" I certify the one standing in front of me, our proximity making me nervous, but I'm refusing to show any signs of it. "You're testing my patience, princess." He admits as his hands lay lazily on my neck, I smirk at his sentence. "You're either leaving this place with a black eye or a hickey" He announces. "You wouldn't dare to kiss me."
