'The Dark Inside'

After spending 22 years in an abusive home, Rowena finally embraced life after she got out of College and decided to never return to her family home. 

Rowena Marshall was intense, volatile, unpredictable, ambitious, moody, and most importantly shaped by her past as a person, thanks to her family. A fresh graduate and an aspiring writer, she was ready to go to any lengths to get recognized and achieve her goal of being a published author.

William Kim Fitzgerald was everything Rowena was not - kind, well-mannered, gentle, and humble. The sole heir of a world-renowned business tycoon and the most eligible bachelor in the country, he was the perfect definition of a true gentleman.

When they met by pure coincidence twice, an undeniable chemistry formulates between them along with a friendship.

Even though he realized there was a much darker and twisted side hiding behind her light smiles, he was drawn to her; he had never met anyone quite like her.

She realized using him like a ladder could be one of her ways to achieve the big break of her dream.

She was the perfect villainess of his story but he was too blind to see that.

After their death, she was sent to live with her wealthy grandparents. Now, ready for a fresh start at college with her best friend, she never expected to meet Hunter-or the fire he would ignite within her. 𝐇𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐊𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐞 has been shaped by pain, growing up with an abusive, alcoholic father and a stripper for a mother. Fighting was survival, and when his brother tried to protect him by sending him away, he was left to face the world alone. Numb for years, he's forgotten how to feel-until Maddy. What happens when opposites attract? Will they heal or destroy each other completely, leaving only ruins behind? Welcome to Crestwood Elite, the world's most exclusive academy, where mafia heirs from across the globe come to master the skills of organized crime. 𝐒𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐤: "I'm not doing anything!" Hunter's rough voice slices through the air. He's right next to me and I can feel his heat. His smell. 𝐌𝐲 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬. "Well, do nothing over 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞. Away from me!" I point to a random car, further away from where we're standing. "And why would I do that?" He lifts a brow, amused. "Because I can't stand to be in your presence. You make me sick." He looks taken aback by that, but then his face darkens as he drawls. "You didn't seem to be sick when I had my tongue down your throat last night. In fact, I recall you moaning for more."

House of Broken Promises | The Glass Cage Chronicles Book 1

21 parts Complete Mature

In the quiet halls of academia, Mia Carter, a shy and unassuming college senior, crosses paths with the enigmatic and powerful Asahi Nakamura, a visiting CEO with a charm as sharp as his ambition. Drawn into his magnetic world, Mia finds herself navigating a connection that feels too good to be true. But beneath the surface of polished smiles and whispered promises lies a fragile line between desire and control. As Mia steps deeper into Asahi's orbit, the walls of her carefully built life begin to shift, and cracks she can't yet see threaten to shatter everything she thought she knew. Secrets, power, and vulnerability collide in a story where nothing is as perfect as it seems. Will Mia uncover the truth before it's too late, or will she become trapped in a glass cage of her own making? 💕💕💕 Thank you all so much for your incredible support!
