MJ has always been wary of guys; after her first relationship went up in flames, she's been hellbent on finding 'The One'. But, being a six form English teacher who's always swamped with work, she barely has time to get out of her apartment, let alone go out. With a GUY. On one evening out at a theatre with her friends, MJ bumps into Dimitri; tall and pale with a past as deep as his eyes. The two feel drawn to each other immediately. But even in Dimitri's arms, MJ's memories of her first relationship never leave her alone, and it's up to Dimitri to set things right; he knows he's not that kind of guy, but he needs MJ to know that. And when MJ's past comes knocking on her door (or, rather, her window), it's up to both of them to face their fears; for MJ, that's putting her past behind her, and for Dimitri, that's losing the girl he loves. But will their love and determination stand the test?

Little did he know how much his life would change in that exact time frame. - "I hate you," I gritted my teeth, a tear daring to slip out. I stepped backwards tying to get away but my back collided against the door. He took another step trapping me in between his arms. My heart thudded loudly in my chest as he brought his face closer to mine with a proud smirk playing out on his lips. The room was dark but I could still see the outline of his face, his eyes, his lips. Fuck. His alluring cologne graced my senses, but clouded my brain as he inched closer to me.

    Happy Hour (A Romantic Comedy)
    ~~~~~ One thing that most definitely hasn't changed is the power of those bright hazel eyes to reduce me to a puddle of mush.

Suddenly, all I can think about is how much I want him to kiss me again, and this makes me absolutely furious with myself. ~~~~~~ Em spent her last two years of high school fantasising about Chris. He seemed to hate her, though... except for that one time he kissed her out of nowhere and then disappeared out of her life. 15 years later, Chris is back. And it turns out that, even now they're both in their thirties, she still hasn't quite recovered from her teenage crush. Thrown together unexpectedly, she's either going to have to get over him... or *under* him. But does he feel the same???

    Meet Me After Class
    So who will it be for this hopelessly unromantic girl? The brooding best friend? Or the young and unquestionably attractive substitute teacher? They say every person is worth the potential heartbreak of relationships not working out. That's why people still take that leap. But not me. Never been kissed, never had a boyfriend-I was pretty convinced by now that I was one of those mega-rare exceptions to the rule; the unlucky sap was just not worth the risk. And I'm totally fine with that. Romance and heartbreak? Not worth the hype in my book. Until life decided to get all snarky on me. "Fooled you, idiot! You'll get your love story...just not at all how you wanted it." Before I know it, I'm swept up in romantic turmoil more dramatic than anything my wildest playwright fantasies could dream up. Getting these very real, very adult feelings for the first time is bloomin' confusing. Lines will blur, tough choices will be made, and hearts will be deliciously broken. So who will it be for this once-hopelessly unromantic girl? My brooding best friend? Or my young substitute teacher?

    Kidnapped to love
    Kidnapped to love
    The cool night air stung her cheeks as she stumbled through the deserted alley, her heart racing with panic. The echoes of her footsteps bounced off the walls, but no matter how fast she ran, the shadows behind her seemed to close in. "Keep running, doll" a low, sinister voice called out from the darkness, sending a shiver down her spine. "You can't escape me." She halted, her breath ragged, fear rooting her in place. Her mind screamed at her to keep going, but her legs wouldn't move. And then she saw him-emerging from the shadows, his tall frame dominating the space, his cold eyes locked onto hers. "W-Why are you doing this?" she stammered, backing away slowly, her body trembling. His lips curved into a dark, amused smile. "Because you're mine, doll" His voice was calm, terrifyingly so. "And no one takes what belongs to me." Crystal is a 20-year-old, breathtakingly beautiful college student with a bright future ahead of her. Innocent, determined, and full of life, she never expected her world to be torn apart by a man like Dimitri. Dimitri Volkov is 26, a dangerously powerful mafia boss who controls everything in his path. Cold, ruthless, and obsessed, he's used to getting what he wants-no matter the cost. And now, what he wants is Crystal. Two worlds collide in a twisted game of power, fear, and obsession. Starting: 22 Oct , 2024 End : 31 Oct , 2024
