[SOON]

Astoria's mother has promised her hand in marriage to a wealthy lieutenant. She doesn't love him. In fact, she doesn't even believe in love at all. 

An infamous, mysterious gentleman arrives in town, causing chaos and the gossip runs wild between the villagers and Astoria seems to be the only one that sees beyond his charade. 

And that was how The Arrangement came to existence. And also how Astoria ended up married with the said infamous gentleman. 

Astoria still does not believe in love and her husband just wants to enjoy all the pleasure life can offer him. 

Every young lady dreams with a match made in heaven, but this one has all it takes to be doomed.

18+ | steamy, angsty rock star romance with a touch of humor THIS IS A SPIN-OFF SEQUEL TO "A SLIP OF THE HAND." It can be read as a stand-alone, but it does contain major ASotH spoilers. ***Proceed with caution! This blurb contains spoilers for "A Slip of the Hand"*** It starts at a wedding. Fiercely independent Seattleite Victoria Bradford has all but sworn off dating. But when she attends her cousin's glamorous Southern California wedding solo, she's blindsided by feelings of loneliness and inadequacy. In a moment of vulnerability, she meets a brooding, charming stranger. He's witty, disarmingly honest, and-oh yeah-the frontman of the chart-topping rock band, Oliver Rose and The Thorns. Oliver Rose is hollowed out by fame, not to mention the tumultuous journey that led to his latest multi-platinum album. He isn't looking to meet anyone, especially not at his childhood friend's wedding. But in Victoria, he finds someone who sees the man underneath the mask he wears. Victoria and Oliver's instant chemistry transcends their usual barriers, forging a connection neither expected. They've got everything going against them: a thousand miles distance, completely different lives, and the relentless pressures of Oliver's career. However, the biggest threat to their budding romance isn't their contrasting lifestyles. A relationship from Oliver's past threatens to eclipse everything. Unification Awards 2025: Short-List and Highlight Story Cover concept/design by the amazingly talented and generous sulkytae! Reimagined by me with permission.

Just Revenge (#1) by lovebirds15

I looked at his eyes and put up a strong face. His eyes bore into mine as much as mine into his. It was like he could read my mind and reach out to my soul just by looking into my eyes. I tried to read his thoughts, too, but it felt like he had blocked me out this time. Nothing seemed clear to me anymore. Tears were burning behind my eyes and threatening to pour out. I forced myself to hold them back and asked him, "Just revenge?" Without a ting of emotion on his face, he said, "Just Revenge." ********************************************* Amelia Lawson had a perfect life. In the eyes of the world, Amelia, or Amy as most would call her, had everything you ever wanted. A successful career, rich background, a loving brother, and a handsome boyfriend turned husband. But, it all crashes down when on the wedding night the love of her life, Aaron Kingston, laughs on her face revealing to her that the whole thing right from dating to marriage was just a big sham and for a fact he actually hates her to no bounds. Now, blackmailed by her husband, Amelia has no choice but to pretend in front of his family and the world that they are a happy couple until he gets what he wants, even if it is her life that is at stake. With Amy's heart already in her husband's hands, her husband hell bent on making her life a living hell and her not knowing what has she possibly done in the twenty five years of her existence to make him hate her so much, what is much left for her to do but comply? But no, "Take no shit from anyone." is a rule made for Amy. Aaron Kingston may have been the love of her life, but he is no exception to this rule. ******************************************** Warning: Mentions of sensitive stuff.

yearning | aaron taylor johnson by americannbeautyy

Sweetheart by chloerainx_

[COMPLETE] 18+ (but if you're not 18, I won't tell on you) --- It had been a mistake. It had all happened so fast. The look on her parents' faces when they found out had been devastating. Perhaps that was why she didn't complain when they decided to send her to a small village in Canada, away from the chaotic and luxurious Los Angeles, with the excuse of being an exchange student for a year. Grace Castle was more than happy to welcome Elizabeth "Lizzie" Wright in her modest house, along with her son Nate and, well, Aaron. It had been 2 years since Grace had taken in the troubled 18-year-old boy, after the tragedy that had occurred to him and his family. Dark and untamable like smoke, Aaron was the exact opposite of Lizzie, groomed to be the perfect woman, always following the rules, and stepping out of line only that one time. One time that cost her a year away from her old city, far away from curious ears and judging eyes. A year that was going to change her life completely, tumbling into a den of lions ready to devour her as soon as they had her in their pack as one of their own. He would not let her have it easy. It was time for sweet, docile Lizzie to face the world and its snakes. He'd make sure of that. Though... was he sure she was not just yet another wolf in a sheep's clothing? Was her heart as pure as he believed, or could it be shaded with swirls of gray smoke like his? ---

(jaylor au) clandestine meetings in beautiful rooms by fearlesslyfolklore

- book one of the illicit affair series - that's the thing about illicit affairs... it's born from just one single glance... but it dies, and it dies, and it dies... a million little times. Taylor Alison Swift is the daughter of King Scott and Queen Andrea of New York City. Since the moment she was born, her fate has been decided by her mother. She is to marry, not for love, but for duty, because blue blood runs through her veins. Her life might as well be planned out in front of her, no choices are her own. But she wants to marry for love. Marry for that spark one feels when they are truly in love. She doesn't want to have to marry someone she has just met or someone that she hasn't gotten to choose. She doesn't want to marry for the Crown, for the throne. She just wants to marry for love. Joseph Matthew Alwyn is a Prince, son of the King and Queen of London. They meet, one night, where neither of them are supposed to be. At a bar in the middle of nowhere, the smell of candles, beer and smoke lingering on their clothes. They meet, and embers collide, creating a bright, burning inferno. But fires that start fast can burn out quickly, and they'll do everything they can to keep that spark alive. No matter what it takes. No matter if they could both be stripped of their titles, exiled, or worse case... they refuse to think about that. It's a dangerous game they're playing.

The Astoria by ItsTheQuietGirls

Astoria Wendall-Jones is the picture of perfection. A pretty, poised, event planner who specialises in big parties despite having little time for anything resembling a social life for herself. When she inherits The Astoria, the old movie theatre she's named after, she doesn't realise she is inheriting a giant pain in her arse along with it. Thomas "Tommy" Moore is everything she isn't. Carefree and laid back to the point of being horizontal. He is never worried, never in a hurry and never happier than when he is teasing prim and proper Azzy. As they try to agree a plan to revitalise The Astoria, and despite the many obstacles thrown in their path, they find concealed letters that reveal the historic love story that unfolded inside it's walls and in turn discover love can be found in the most unexpected of places. Open Novella Content prompt: 99. It's always what/who you least expected that blows your mind away. Based on the JAM festival prompt: You inherit a movie theatre - or half of one anyway. You share ownership with the nephew of your deceased relative's best friend. Your first "business meeting" is not auspicious but something about this guy makes you want to give him a chance.

The Prince would still be my heir, even though you're the Empress.‟ ‟Then why keep me, Sire, if I am of no use to you?

Call Me Up Again by sfenby

A Taylor Swift fanfic - Máire never expected a wrong number to change her life forever. At first, she didn't think much of it, but when the unknown caller keeps blowing up her phone and she ends up talking to the charming and mysterious woman that wants to keep her identity a secret, she finds herself drawn to that girl more with each text and late-night call. Neither of them knew that sometimes the most unexpected connections can lead to the most profound relationships. As they continue to grow closer, navigating the challenges of time zones, long-distance communication and their vastly different lives, both of them soon must decide if they're willing to take a leap of faith and uproot everything they've known so far. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction! Most characters and places were created in my head, except for real life people, like celebrities and especially Taylor herself. Their actions and words are completely imaginary. I wrote everything with the utmost respect for Taylor and anyone who makes an appearance and it's intended to entertain and nothing more. We don't assume peoples sexualities here, we just vibe. Timeline won't be a hundred percent accurate to make this story make sense, but major events are still a thing.
