Penn Romero is a smart girl. Smart girls don't get involved with their professors.
*****
It begins with a casual meeting at a speakeasy. It begins with a drink. It begins with a stolen stare. It begins with the not-knowing, the secrecy, the sneaking around.
Penn Romero hardly knew what she was getting into when she was drawn in by Chase Steele's magnetism, and she hardly knew he'd be her new Film Theory professor. Against everything she's ever known, against everything she should do, she stills falls into a dark spiral of manipulation that keeps her trapped in a spider web, losing sight of who the real Penn is--all that's left is what he has made of her and all he's taken.
It ends with him taking and taking. It ends with the should've-knowns. It ends in ruin.
*****
THIS IS NOT A ROMANCE. DON'T ADD THIS TO ROMANCE READING LISTS, PLEASE.

****Updated and re-edited*****Dec of 2024 In her last year of college, Madison Harlow breaks up with her childhood boyfriend. They've never been anything but close friends and a kiss. No one knew he was unstable and would take his life, which in turn forced Madison to want to live more of a life.

Until her polar opposite shows up. Mason Pembrook, a guy that has a new girl every night. He's never dated a girl and he's never used the word 'love' ever in his life. Mason and Madison find an immediate attraction to each other even though they are far from being alike. Mason forces Madison to dislike him because romance scares him. Madison hides her true feelings deep down inside of her. One night is all it takes for Mason to take Madison's virginity and create a wild, toxic, and addicting romance between the two of them. What brought her to him? Is it because Mason is broken, and Madison believes she has to fix everyone? Is it because not only did he take her virginity, but he made her feel what a true kiss feels like? Or is it because she's become addicted to the arousing feelings and pleasure he can give her? These two are no good for each other but can't stay away. They are magnets in this universe, attracted from thousands of miles away no matter what happens. The fights they have would end any relationship, yet they keep going back to each other. The more they are together the more they fall in love with each other. The more they make love with each other the more they realize what true love feels like. The more they fight the further they end up away from each other. Can true love and arousing romance be more powerful than the arguments and disapproval they can have for each other? To Madison, Mason is 'My broken YOU'Concluída

Tame Me If You Can
After kissing an irresistible stranger, a young professor discovers her mystery crush is one of her new students. MIA is an emotionally unavailable woman, who's dedicated everything to becoming the youngest professor at her university. Growing up with a narcissistic mother taught her to hide behind sarcasm and sass, while pushing away any pursuits of intimacy. JAKE is an irresistible sweetheart, who gets infatuated by a sharp-tongued woman and can't let her go, especially when he can read her like an open book and knows deep down, she's just afraid. When the two find themselves in a taboo academic setting, flames rise, chemistry explodes, and banter is never-ending. But will Jake be able to tame her heart without ruining them both in the process? DISCLAIMER: This is my first book, y'all. Don't be mean. Also, the smut fades to black. Ya horny animals.

Ancilla (BDSM) (18+)
She had it all - riches, a college honors program scholarship, a girlfriend - until her conservative, hyper-religious parents discovered the sapphistry and forced her to choose between conversion therapy and disownment. That choice marked the end of her academic career and everything she thought she knew. Now, three years later, she is starting her life over and meets a shy public librarian in a bookstore. He has been waiting his whole life for her. What unfolds between the two lovers feels almost like magic. Given that he is about to become her tutor in the magickal and erotic arts, perhaps that should come as no surprise. But at what cost? The mysterious older man may be everything she has ever longed for, yet she may be forced to choose between her developing identity and the most profound love she has ever known. Ancilla is a study of hunger. It is a dark, philosophical tale exploring forbidden passion, power, devotion, trauma, sacrifice, and the complicated path toward becoming oneself. The conservative early 1990's in northeast Ohio's Rust Belt sets the stage for a slow-burning, forbidden love. Surrender... ════════════════════════════════════ "Magic and philosophy sandwiched in between some of the hottest scenes I've read in recent years... Loved it!" - Hannah Gonzalez, Reedsy Discovery "Love is brutal, bloody, and ecstatic in this passionate romance... BDSM aficionados will love it... A richly imagined, lurid love story that's not for the faint of heart. (Our verdict: Get it!)" - Kirkus Reviews 🏆 Since its self-published launch in January 2024, Ancilla has won 100+ awards on Wattpad and multiple off-site indie literary awards, including a Passionate Plume and finalist status for a Hawthorne Prize. It has been featured in Wattpad's AfterDark, Romance, LGBTQ, and Ambassadors profile booklists.Concluída
