Mariposa Flores desperately wants two things--to be a landscaper and to be reunited with her boyfriend. Too bad her parents have a problem with both. Being immigrants, they have sacrificed everything so that Mara can get a college education and pursue a professional career. Even though their landscape business has provided a good living, they don't want that for their daughter. Mara, however, is never happier than when she is outside creating beauty in nature. She has grand plans to take her father's business to a higher level, and she would be happy to go to college for landscape design if they would only let her. Sparks fly when her father insists she take an office job for the summer and banishes her from all things related to gardening. Thank heavens she has Chad to console her. But her parents’ opinion of Chad is not a good one either. In fact, they were happy when Chad moved away. Even so, Mara is sure their love can survive until they're back together again. That is, she's sure until she runs into--literally--a boy with silver eyes who seems strangely familiar. But Oliver can't be someone she knows because he's not from her town. Or even from her time. And what he needs most of all to get back home is a garden.
Mara will risk everything to help Oliver get home. And in doing so, she just might find out what home means to her.

The Devil's Daughter (Devil's Right Hand MC #4)
Chrissy Martinez is lost, but not the kind of lost that a GPS will fix. She's the kind of lost that takes years of therapy or a trip to one of those spiritual retreats to fix. At 19, she had no idea what her place would be in the world, but she could manage. With her mama and sister by her side, she kept her head down and worked a shitty job to hold the family together. That is, until her whole life came crashing down when her mother died and she lost the safeguard of her home in the same week. Wandering lost in a world without her shepherd, she knows her snarky attitude or quick wit cannot save her from this, she needs a map. And maybe, just maybe, she finds the very map she needs while cleaning out her mother's closet. Maybe, that map is in the form of a birth certificate. ---------- Skillet Lawson is the club goofball. His reputation for inappropriate comments and deadly sarcasm make him a staple in the Franklin chapter of The Devil's Right Hand MC. To some, his child-like banter and carefree nature may seem immature, but to Skillet, this is the epitome of maturity. Nothing is more mature than seeing all the shit the world has to offer and sticking your middle finger up at it. His life is pretty damn good now. He's got everything he could ever want. But what happens when the mysterious girl with curly hair and a bag full of secrets catches his eye? Now, the man who never takes anything seriously develops serious feelings for the beauty with a secret identity, even though he knows he shouldn't. Can Skillet resist the gorgeous forbidden fruit? Or will he fall under the spell of the devil's daughter? ------ Disclaimer: This is the fourth book in my Devil's Right Hand Series. While I recommend reading these books in order, this can be read as a stand-alone.Terminé

What It Could Have Been
I've been waiting for this moment for over a year now. Hoping, dreaming, holding onto the picture in my mind what life could be like. I always thought this would never come. Thinking it's impossible for me to have a new start. Go to a new place, see new faces, meet new people. It always felt like walking through a desert with a map drawn in water. But even then, I never let go of my dream. I would close my eyes and imagine everything. How different I would feel waking up in the morning, how light my chest would feel, how more confident and comfortable I would feel. I was kind of writing my own little story in my head. And now, I'm just one zip of my suitcase away and my story will be coming to life. ------------------------------- Venus Jennings didn't just leave Harbor Ridge, she escaped it.

My First Love
Meet Alizah, the ultimate parent-pleaser extraordinaire! She's like the CEO of "Operation Make-Parents-Happy," always two steps ahead of what her parents need. If love was measured in mango pickles, Alizah would have made enough to last the whole neighborhood for years-because nothing makes her happier than knowing her parents are proud (and well-fed). She's not just obedient; she's the gold-standard role model for "I'll do anything for my parents," with a side of humor and a smile that says,"Challenge accepted!" Life was all smooth until one day-BAM! Her parents dropped the biggest bombshell: "We found the perfect boy for you!" Before she could say, 'Not Ready' she was already knee-deep in wedding prep, forced into a marriage she never signed up for. The boy? A soft-spoken, polite guy named Vivaan, who looks like the human version of a greeting card-nice, but completely unnecessary (in her opinion). Now, Alizah isn't one to rebel; she's the kind of girl who'd say "thank you" after getting scolded. But being obedient has *limits*-and they were crossed somewhere between picking bridal lehengas and smiling for selfies at pre-wedding shoots. In her mind, she plotted "Mission Sabotage" Unfortunately, nothing worked, because Alizah parents could win *Gold* in emotional blackmail. "Beta, we just want to see you happy," they'd say with teary eyes, making her surrender faster than a cricketer caught in an LBW. And so, Alizah steps into her new life, half in disbelief, half in acceptance-like a girl boarding the wrong train but thinking, "Well, at least the view outside might be nice in this fake world" "Some journeys begin without a destination."Whether this one leads to chaos or contentment, only time will tell. Prepare for laugh-out-loud moments, heart-tugging twists, and the sweetest mess of feelings!Terminé![30 Days Ultimatum(COMPLETED)[✔]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/132904095-256-k326093.jpg)

This book is a RomCom book(Romance comedy). Read if you love laughing.😊 CURRENTLY EDITING AND WORKING ON RE-WRITING. PLEASE IGNORE SOME IMMATURE THINGS THAT THE CHARACTERS EXHIBIT.

He arranges with his best friend to match-make their grand children on the pretext of merging their companies. Jason and Mia refuse to compromise. So they strike a deal with them. "You both will live together for 30 days, if you don't fall in love with each other within those 30 days. You both can go your separate ways and marry whoever you want to marry".

Fight For Her (Devil's Right Hand MC #2)
Brenna Miller goes by many different names: Shorty, Brenna, and most importantly, Mommy. She fights every day for her daughter, sometimes forgetting herself in the process. In her opinion, life is good. She has her brother, her daughter, a stable job, and a side gig that pays very well. Things are good. She would rather go through life alone, anyway, as that means nobody can hurt her or her daughter. That plan worked until she meets an arrogant man with bright blue eyes and a curiosity for her neither of them understands. Now, she must decide if loneliness is safer, or maybe, just maybe, he is. ------ Driver Roberson is the ruthless Vice President of the Devil's Right Hand MC. His entire life, he was trained to be a fighter, to only think as far as the next fight. Even after he retired his boxing gloves, he followed this motto, one foot in front of the other, one fight at a time. He never wanted anything more than the life he had, owning a popular gym, hosting underground fights, being a part of DRH, and having a different girl in his bed every night. In his mind, life is good. Then how can one girl knock his entire world off its axis? Why does he feel so drawn to her, especially when she constantly pushes him away? Maybe it's fate. Maybe it's lust. Maybe it's true love. But Drive will have to fight for her. ------- Disclaimer: This technically is a sequel to Facing My Demons (Devil's Right Hand MC #1) as it follows all of the same characters. I highly encourage you to read that book first. However, this book can be read as a stand-alone!Terminé
