betrayal church ending grumpyxsunshine happy lovetriangle rivalry romance sunshine university

I never cared for going to church. Yet I had a role to play in the community. If I look pretty and stay silent, then I would get the privileges of having my mom and dad's money, therefore I would live comfortably... 

Pearce Roman Hayes is the son of the most cut throat Pastor in our state. He holds his head high and keeps his face in a calm smile. Ever the charmer, with the face and body of an Angel . His eyes are a different story... they say the eyes are the window to one's soul, I'm starting to think Pearce doesn't have one.

 Now Pearce has come back to town to study at my university, and I just know that whatever he is planning is not good for me, but... I am a curious person... and he might just be a new temporary fixation, so truly, what's the harm in indulging?

"Bitch don't try to feel important, I'm only doing you a favour here so cut to the chase and state your price, we both know you need the money desperately" Shanelle replied. What she said got to me but I wouldn't let her see that, because I truly need the money to support my sick dad. I just smiled and say "what's it about?" "I'll text you my address, come over to my place tonight and we can talk it over in my room, no one is allowed to know that you're helping me" Shanelle said quite bossy.

Catch Me When I Fall (h.g.) by sncwdw11

Originally written: January-June 2019 Edited: February 2023 Hayes lets go of my hand to cradle my face. "Hey what's wrong? You look like you want to cry." "I love you," I admit on an exhale. A single tear manages to escape as the emotions ease as the weight of the words are no longer sitting in my chest. Hayes' gaze softens as his thumb slowly strokes my cheek. "So why are you crying?" "Because it's scary," I whisper to him. Hayes leans his forehead against mine. "You don't have to scared, baby. I've loved you since the moment I saw you. Every time I've held you, every time I've kissed you, every time I've looked at you, I've wanted to tell you just how in love with you I am." We all have that one crush that we can never get over. We want to move on, but we can't. We always go back to that person. Breckyn has wanted to get over her crush on Scott, and when Hayes Grier, the new guy, comes into her life, everything changes. For the bad or for the good? Will Breckyn be able to move on or will she be left broken? Can she set aside her own fears or will they come crashing down on her? -swearing, sexual innuendos, and mentions/implications of sex in later chapters

We Were Meant to Be by anya_jayvyn

An age gap love story. A brokenhearted billionaire. A college girl. ***** "Nevaeh," Aiden whispers, "can I rest my head on your shoulder?" I nod, letting him rest his head on my shoulder. He closes his eyes. "Thank you." He sighs in contentment. "Heaven." "Heaven?" "It's your name spelled backward, isn't it?" ***** The moment I first saw Aiden Klein, the first thing that came up in my head was how perfect he was. A good hard working man who loves his family more than anything else, Aiden Klein has been the subject of the desire of many women. His wealth and success as one of the most influential leaders in the business world are nothing compared to his golden heart. The world keeps asking the same questions over and over again, "How would he love his woman?" The sad thing is, we will never know. Because his heart has been frozen. Eyes are blind for any woman. Touch is forbidden for their skin. Aiden Klein cannot love a woman. Yet, I know that it's far from the truth. Aiden Klein can love a woman so fiercely, his love would break you. Because I've seen it once, accidentally. He's the broken hero. And I'm the villain in this story. © Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved.

His Sweet Honey. by shelovesto_reads

His face was inches aways from mine, I could feel his hot minty breath fan my lips. "Look me in my eyes and tell me you don't want me." He said I was taken aback. "Say it, my love." He said. By now I was a squirming mess under him, hungry for his touch. "I-I I want you." I stuttered barely above a whisper but luckily he heard me and he immediately smashed his lips on mine. Gosh he's an amazing kisser, I could feel the butterflies erupt in my tummy. ~~~~~~~ Kennedy Johnson. She's an average college student, fighting for her mater's degree in law.

Orabella | ✔️ by kxshintia

* Sequel to TBPEW * ¥¥¥¥ Years after all the drama between the Knight family, things are starting to look good for them. With the help from Cole's friend, Lukas, the two were able to prove that they could take over the family company. Meanwhile after the death of Orabella's father, Henry, she was watched over by one of Xavier's men and his wife. The two do nothing but make her feel suffocated, as if she can't live her life even at the age 22. As Orabella got older, all she could think about was her late father... and the man that murdered him. She then made it her goal to ruin the lives of both Xavier and his family. What happens when she applies for a job her friend suggested that is soon managed by Cole Knight himself? The man she once had a crush on as a child now stands in front of her with cold eyes. Will she continue on with the mission? Or will she leave it all in the past and move forward? ¥¥¥¥ Orabella's POV I knew just from looking at him, that the other next to him was Cole. He was tall. He had to be at least 6'3. He wore a black shirt that showed all of his muscles, standing with pride. His shoulders were broad. While the other guy's hair was styled neatly, his was more messy. In a good way of course. He had a few strands of his dark curly locks in his face. I would say that having a sharpe jawline runs in their family, him having stubbles on his face. His expression was blank and had a unusual coldness to it. I could practically feel the power radiating off of him. He seeked control. His nose was sharpe, lips plumped. I noticed the small scar going through his left eyebrow. When I looked back at his eyes I saw that he was already looking at me. I felt as my heart began to race slightly, me now feeling uncomfortable under his cold eyes. • • • • #6 plottwist - 09/22/23 #28 darkness - 09/24/23 #8 ex - 10/05/23 #1 jealous - 12/11/23
