When artist, Laura Dunsmore, takes a job painting Christmas greetings on the windows of the local hardware store she leans a little too far off the top of a stepladder and lands on the store's new assistant manager, Gareth, who happens along and tries to catch her.

Gareth is enthralled with the pretty artist but Laura, who was dumped at the altar only a few months before, wants nothing to do with a new romance. However, when they discover that they're both members of the church choir and must continually practice together, Laura's plans to keep Gareth at a distance start to crumble.All Rights Reserved

paint me like one of your french girls (gxg) by c2suave

Paris Du Pont was the queen of her school. Turns heads when she walks, she was the type of person people practically worshiped. Anything she ever wanted was merely just a swipe away. With rich parents and a face of an angel, nothing was ever out of arms reach. Mayson Amore was the complete opposite. She blended into the crowd, except when she couldn't, never spoke unless spoken to, and always had her head in music sheets or books. With non existent parents, money was always an issue. With strict parents and failing classes, Paris needs to quickly get her grades up before her parents notice, while Mayson needs a muse for her fast-approaching deadline for an art project. Can they help one another before it's too late? this is basically like a modern version of titanic so enjoy!!

Love is for Show by Nxxmx70

Nathan Brooks. A 23 year old college student finding his way between the walls of a rather small dry cleaners shop. He strives for the simple college life, keeping to himself and never doing more than necessary. Elias bursts through the doors one day, practically begging for help with his boss' messed up, coffee-stained shirt; and he brings a storm right in with him. Expecting to never see the pretty blond ever again, life moves on. Only weeks later they meet again with another surprise for Nathan that nearly wipes the floor right from under his feet. His high school best friend? What is going on? One thing leads to another and the lives of four very different men are suddenly becoming intertwined, chaotic and very messy. A mess much bigger than any coffee stain and one that Nathan might not be able to clean up. How ironic that he cleans other people's messes, but he can't seem to be able to do the same for himself. Part-time job turned into a hotspot of potential love and romance. How did that happen? *** - Regular/Weekly Tuesday Updates -

Steal My Heart (WAYHAUGHT) by wrenlo

Nicole moves into the apartment next door. Will her desire to possess beautiful things extend to Waverly? It was a simple procedure, release the painting from its frame, roll it carefully in the lambswool blanket, pop it in the tube. Nicole had done this countless times. It was becoming boring, to the point where she almost wanted to etch her name on one of the paintings, like Banksy. Having 'Haught' scrawled on a multi-million dollar piece of art, however, would devalue it. Deciding she preferred notes, money rather than notoriety, she chose not to vandalise the latest painting she was stealing.

Lightweight. | ✔ by Chanella_writes

[UNEDITED STORY] "If you're like me, then when you fall...you fall hard, and its almost impossible to get back up." I admitted shamefully, refusing to meet his beautiful eyes. "Maybe the problem isn't about falling Lyla," he says softly, and his long fingers tilted my head upwards. My eyes met his intensely. "Its about who catches you when you fall." He declares... *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Lyla Denver was known to be a 'Lightweight' to everyone she knows. Her presence never mattered, her influence to others were basically nonexistent. So, she stayed alone, in her comfort zone. All she had was herself and her countless set of painted art, which she sold to an art gallery in New York anonymously. That changed when Kyle Andrews, the heir to that particular art gallery found out her identity, packed his bags and barreled into her life, carrying way more than just 'lightweight' with him.

Miss Bodyguard | Rafayel +18 by higrat

Moira Lune do not talks about her past. Not out of the embarrassment or overwhelming sense of sadness, although she was already well acquainted with the latter. There are things that should not be talked about. They are better to sweep under the carpet or hide in a pillowcase so they never see the daylight again. They look much better in the dark, from where Lune miraculously managed to get out. Rafayel, on the other hand, talks a lot and even more, regardless of whether his words could offend anyone. The café owner and the young artist seem to have a little in common, so it's no wonder that sparks are flying between them... And they slowly ignite an intense flame that is hard to resist. Due to the rising star's popularity in the art world, their relationship must remain a secret. Just an ordinary connection between an employer, the painter master, and an unapproachable employee, Miss Bodyguard. Because there are things so dark that it is better not talk about them. ༯ „I do bad things, And I do them very well." ༯ I DO NOT AGREE TO ANY FORM OF COPYING MY WORK. Modern Au!
