The Dividing Line (Book 1) | BWWM
Allen Cole McGregor was bred to hate. A fourth-generation neo-Nazi with blood on his knuckles and a five-year prison scar on his soul, Cole trusts only his name and the men who share his views-until the night they turn on him. Left to die on a snow-covered road out in the middle of nowhere, breath thinning, he welcomes the cold when it comes... and then opens his eyes to an angel. But.. She isn't what he was taught angels look like. Angel LeeAnna Brooks didn't plan to find a stranger bleeding in her path. She didn't plan to move faster than the fear growing inside of her, while hoping and praying that the man before her had no affiliations with the devil himself. After the swastika tattoos screamed their presence beneath his blood-stained clothes, Angel feared the man might be a demon, and she had no idea how to handle that revelation. Their collision is gasoline and a match: a Black woman hiding from pain and loss, a white man raised in a creed of rot, both trapped on a secluded homestead where winter is closing in and secrets stalk the walls. As enemies circle and old lies unravel, Cole is forced to confront the poison in his bones-and the one person willing to see the boy he buried alive. This is not a safe love story. It's a reckoning. Redemption has a cost, and crossing the line means someone-maybe both of them-won't come back the same. Trigger + Themes: racial tension, betrayal, survival, slow-burn redemption, enemies-to-lovers. ***MATURE 18+*** *AMAZON PUBLISHED BOOKS ARE EDITED TO REFLECT CHANGES NOT AVAILABLE ON WATTPAD* This is a Curvy Community Romance: #DISCLOSURE #CelebrateBlackStories #EyesLipsFierce #wattpadbookshelves ⛔️TRIGGER WARNING: This story is MATURE.

The Vile.
If black defined darkness he was darker than that. He chose to be like that. Darkness attracted him. He loved the cold unless it was the warmth of blood. He drew his strength from others' fear. He was Danuj D. The CEO of The D' Imperium. If white defined brightness she was brighter than that. She chose to be like that. Light attracted her. She loved the warmth unless it's the cold droplets of rain. She drew her strength from others' happiness. She was Vasudha Roy. The girl that he never expected will bring him down to his knees. He loved watching defeat until he saw her fighting back. And that was when everything changed. A clash. A clash, that could either destroy them or draw them together. Welcoming all of you to witness the tumultuous but alluring journey of Danuj and Vasudha. Please do not copy my book. This totally needs hardwork and I am writing it with my heart.

With a fully paid for house and less bills on her shoulders, it'd be easier to focus on her career. What she did not expect to come with the house was the grumpy man who lived next door. After countless failed attempts to talk to him, Soleil figured it was best to stay on her side of the yard. But when a storm strikes, the last place Soleil thought she'd seek shelter was at his place. The last person she thought would be so thoughtful and tender towards her was him. He's a good catholic. He swears to behave. A line has been blurred, one that was never truly there. And temptation would be the death of him, and his well-mannered values. Even if temptation was a young woman with legs for days.Complete
