PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS TOXIC!

"Oh right, the waitress. Sorry I can't think straight with pretty women around me, especially this red head. What's your name, love?"
The audacity to openly flirt with me, I'm a stranger for fuck's sake. Noting his rich English accent, I'm guessing he's from the Southern Suburbs and doesn't speak a word Afrikaans, unlike Erina and I. Typical behaviour.
"Please, you probably tell that to all the women you see here. Let me guess, your next cheesy pick-up line is going to be, 'Do you ladies come here often?'" I snort out.
"Her name is Skylar, please excuse her, she hasn't been in the public for quite a while now, so she forgot how to socialise," Erina says with a smile while taking her drink from the tray and takes a sip.
******************************************
Skylar Read was once told that love is toxic. She did not believe it of course.
After getting her heart shattered by a guy named Dwayne, she falls out of love, with being in love and desperately wants to break away from the boring cycle of school and work.
She meets a handsome man named Sven, who is the opposite of Dwayne, and becomes infatuated with him but still struggles to get her first love off of her mind.
Through the course of her relationship, she steps out of her comfort zone and crosses boundaries she thought she never would, but can Sven really be that perfect?
Will Miss Read learn that love is indeed toxic? If so, will she manage to escape the ties that will bind her to this toxic relationship before she becomes intoxicated?

Emmeline Adams is just getting settled into her new life as a college student in Berkeley, California. She has her entire life mapped out on paper and her sights set on a successful career. However, when dropping off her new roommate at a party the day before college begins, she stumbles across a pair of grey eyes that derail her plans before she ever realises it.
Aiden Blackwood was known for his bad temper and lack of empathy. However, behind the tall walls he's built to protect himself, he's far more than just an acclaimed villain.
He symbolises everything Emma distrusts. She embodies everything Aiden fears.
So what happens when this shattered man surrounded by darkness discovers a light at the end of a very long tunnel?
