~His hand came to wrap around hers as his chest met her back. The thin layer of air between them was thick with heat. Her skin prickled with goosebumps when she felt his chest rise in a breath, diminishing the space between them. 
His hand guided hers, dicing the peppers in a much neater fashion than she could've handled on her own. 
"I'm gonna take my hand away," he muttered in her ear. 
Despite the slight shake in her hand, she continued the motion. She could feel him behind her, his breaths on her skin, his eyes piercing her. But not her skills, her. His eyes raked her face and traveled down her back as he slowly stepped away. She burned. 
What was wrong with her?~

Camden McCord is moved into his uncle's house after a tragic event. There to greet him is his uncle's new girlfriend, and her daughter. Aurora Suthers is a 19 year old freshmen in college, and possibly the best mistake of Camden's life.

~ 2021 WATTY'S SHORTLIST ~ "I-well, I..." I hesitated with my response. I wanted to let go. To not worry about what would happen in the future. I'd always loved staring into fires. It hypnotized me with its beauty and danger. It was so tantalizing to look at, but one little touch could destroy. I knew the heat between Tyler and I was similar. It started off small but it had only grown in the weeks he'd been here. We'd fed it unintentionally, and it had gone from an ember to a crackling flame. Every nerve in my body wanted to reach out and touch it, even though I knew I'd get burned. *************************************************** Pia Callahan always lived a carefree life with no worries. Her only responsibilities were to attend her college classes (sometimes) and keep herself fed (on ramen). When tragedy strikes, Pia is all of the sudden thrown into a whirlwind of change. She has to grow up and take on more responsibility than she could ever imagine: the custody of her best friend's son. Pia may not believe she is the best person for the job, but she is determined to do it. She'll trade in frat parties for PTA meetings and beer-bongs for apple juice. But what happens when the ruggedly hot motocross athlete Tyler Westwood shows up in her small town? Tyler lives on the fast track, never caring too much about consequences. You can't when your job is to do backflips through the air. Sometimes, you just have to send it and hope for the best. From the second Tyler meets Pia, he knows he wants her. But she is determined to ignore their bubbling chemistry. She has priorities now and a summer fling isn't one of them. Will Pia be able to stay away from Tyler? Or will she decide to hit the throttle? ***************************************************

She took a step closer, her eyes blazing with anger. "You want to know what's really unfair? It's that you're mad at me for doing what you should have done in the first place. You should have come to talk to me, should have made an effort. But no, instead you're over here, pouting and blaming me for your own lack of action. You're so-" I cut her off mid-sentence, my hands grasping her face, my lips crashing down on hers in a fierce, possessive kiss. I silenced her venomous words with my own desperate need. I growled to myself, my mind racing with the truth. I was holding back, and I knew it. But I didn't mean to blame her for my own fears. That was just a coward's excuse. But if she wanted me to take action, I was more than happy to oblige. I devoured her lips, my head tilting deep into the kiss. She tensed, her body rigid with surprise, but then relaxed into me, her lips parting to let me in. ----------------------------- Secrets, passion, and a forbidden attraction...

"Joe, someone will come down; t-this is crazy," I can barely say; I take a deep calming breath, take his hand and stand up as he pulls me in against his chest. "I will fuck you, anytime, anyway, anywhere I want, Alix," he began. And raises a perfect eyebrow, "Remember, you said, anything I want. You will obey me, all talk no actions, Alix," he reminds, holding me close to his chest with his hand down my lower back, gripping me in tight. He leans in and kisses my neck softly. I just felt my body automatically reacts to his kiss and feel throbbing down there. He rolls his mouth to my ear.

In which I fall in love with my brother's best friend. ***** "Don't pretend like you don't feel anything." His voice is low, sending shivers down my spine. "What do you mean?" "You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach." He smirks, his voice sounding even more dangerous. ***** I thought that my brother was the most popular guy in school, but as soon as I step into my university life, I realize how wrong I was. Meet Vaughn Cooper, his best friend. The guy is the epitome of every girl's dream. Godlike handsome. The quarterback. He's got the looks, and he's got the brain. Come on, he's got the scholarship to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, while I have just barely passed the entrance examination after long years of struggle during high school. How could a guy who worked that hard and deserves nothing more but adoration be labeled as a bad boy? Yeah, the answer is simple. The moment we lock eyes, I realize something as I stare into those piercing, amber eyes. He's not every girl's dream. He's every girl's nightmare. In my case, MY nightmare. Calm down, heart. Our story hasn't even started. ***** THE SPENCERS SERIES BOOK #1 © 2020 Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved.

"You just have no idea." His voice was thick with restraint. "W-what," I breathed. His gaze flicked to my lips as his thumb stroked again. The calloused pad against my soft flesh sent goosebumps down my arms. His once warm eyes were dark as they lifted and bared into my soul. "What you do to... men." His husky whisper weakened my knees. I almost fell but his other hand settled on my hip, pulling me closer to him. "What you do to me," he added on a breath. The hand on my jaw shifted. His fingers left trails of tingles as he slipped them back slowly, under my earlobe and into my curls. *************************************************** As a young girl, Charlotte Avery's favourite pass time was daydreaming about her Prince Charming: Archer Johnson.
