A broken man stumbles upon love for the first time- a love that burns fiercely and he can't bring himself to walk away...
"I'm the moth and you're the flame and I've been drawn to you from the very moment I laid eyes on you," I whispered while gently stroking her knuckles with my thumb. "I know I'll get burned but I can't seem to look away."
"Doesn't that scare you? Don't you have the common sense enough to be afraid that I'll hurt you?"she snaps, yanking her hand away from mine. "I've never been good for you Jessie." She plops down on the porch with her head in her hands.
"Maybe you're right." Her head snaps up to look at me, red curls protesting against the sudden movement of her head and I continue. "Maybe I should be scared but I'm not. And maybe that lack of fear makes me an idiot, but I don't care. I've seen plenty fires in my day: started plenty of them and watched them flicker and die out just the same. But I've never seen a fire as beautiful as you, never seen one burn so bright. I want to smolder with you Autumn. I want to smolder in your heat forever."

Only You [DISCONTINUED]
"Oh Logan," the girl moaned. Logan looked up smiling at the girl, but then he caught sight of me. His smile disappeared. His mouth opened to call my name, but I slammed the door shut and ran back to Drew and Luke. We were almost out the house when someone grabbed my wrist. I turned around and saw Logan. "Let me explain Dani." "You don't need to . We're through," I spat and punched him as hard as I could. I struck him in the nose. I was satisfied that it was enough to break it. Drew and Luke helped me into the car. "Let me see your knuckles," Luke asked reaching out. I winced as he lightly touched the area around my knuckles where the skin had split. His ice cold hands helped the throbbing.Complete
Blue Eyes (A Paranormal Romance)
HIGHEST RANK- #1 in Crush #2 in Paranormal For a moment he just sits there watching me with amused eyes, a smirk playing on his lips. Suddenly he stands up and walks forward until he's only inches from my body. Our faces so close that I can actually see the small sliver flecks in his eyes as they shimmer. "Wha-what are you doing?" I stutter my voice coming out as a breathless whisper. He breathes out. His breath fanning across my face, it smells of peppermint with a hint of orange. I shiver at the feeling. Sending a sensation that's equally as phenomenal as it is terrifying down my body. He leans in just a little closer so that our noses are almost touching. I stare up into his eyes, unsure of what to do. I feel frozen in place, like I can't move, like maybe I don't want to. "Time to seal it with a kiss" he suggests with a smirk. 🔹🔹🔹 Bethany Hibbler has a secret that she has kept from everyone. For 17 years Bethany has never told anybody that she can read minds.

His Arranged Wife : When Love Wasn't The Plan
《Book 1 of "His" Series.》 "Come on, Firefly. Stop eating that," I said, half amused and half exasperated. But instead of listening, she walked over to me, holding the jar out with a determined look on her face. "You should put it on your lips too. You'll like it!" I raised an eyebrow. "No. I'm not doing that, Firefly." She pouted, stepping closer. "Come on, just once," she insisted, dipping her finger into the tiny jar and attempting to smear it on my lips. I caught her wrist, grinning as an idea struck me. "You really want me to taste it that badly?" I asked, my voice dropping a notch. "Yes!" she said, her enthusiasm masking the mischief in my tone. I leaned in slightly, lowering my voice further. "Alright then, you asked for it, Firefly." Before she could comprehend my words, I tilted her chin up and captured her lips with mine. The kiss wasn't soft or tentative-it was deliberate, consuming. My lips pressed firmly against hers, moving slowly but with intent. As I kissed her, the faint sweetness of the strawberry flavor mingled with something even better-the natural taste of her lips. She was breathless by the time I pulled away, her cheeks flushed, her eyes wide and dazed. I smirked, brushing my thumb gently over her now swollen lips. "You're right, Firefly," I murmured, my voice low and teasing. "The strawberry flavor is good. But your lips? They're even better." ⭐ Tropes ⭐: _______________ ✨ Arranged Marriage ❤️ 👩❤️👨 Elder Daughter × Younger Son 💍 💖 Kind, Sensitive & Strong FMC 🔥 Rude but captivated by her & "Touch Her and Die" MMC 💞 Spicy & Intense Romance 🌞 Grumpy × Sunshine Vibes - A love story where fate binds them, sparks fly, and hearts collide! 💫❤️🔥 ___________________ Start: 15/12/2024 End: 13/06/2025Complete
Broken Girls And Broken Boys
C O M P L E T E D "Date me," he spins the whiskey around in the glass and fixes me with a smirk. I roll my eyes the moment the words roll off his tongue. "Are you really that desperate?" I scoff in response, fighting back the ever prominent blush. His smirk widens as my face flushes red and he leans over the countertop towards me. I step back. "Name your price," he replies, his words cool and smooth like ice cream. Only I would reference food at a moment like this. Anger rolls around in the pit of my stomach; I may not have money but I have morals. "You can't buy people, Grant," The words fall out of my mouth and he recoils as if slapped. I'm glad. Stupid rich boy and his player ways. "Bet I can," I resist the urge to slap the smug look of his face and scoff again. "Right," I drag out the word, rolling my eyes. I step away from the counter and turn my back on him, desperate to leave. But he speaks again. "Date me. Two months. If you fall for me for my money, I win. If I fall for you for who you really are, you win." I consider this for a moment. I have nothing to loose and really not much to gain. But I'm so desperate to put the asshole in his place that I can't resist. I'm a sucker for a bet. "Deal."Complete

She looked straight through me - like she already knew the ruins I was made of. And still sat next to me... like she wasn't afraid of turning to ash. She doesn't know what she's walked into. She doesn't know the things I've done. The darkness I carry. The name I still curse in my sleep. But she smiled at me. And I broke. Not because I was weak. But because for the first time in a long time - I wanted to be someone worth staying for. This isn't about forgetting the past. It's about what happens... when someone new walks in and makes the past bleed. She's not my first love. But she might just be the one I destroy myself for. Because butterflies don't heal broken men. But she's not just a butterfly. SHE IS MINE BUTTERFLY 🦋. I don't appreciate copying.
His Desired Possession
" Oh fuck!!" "Little one, I don't think it suits a baby to curse." " Hey!! Who are you calling little? I am a big girl. Can't you see?? " she hissed angrily, rubbing her knees. He chuckled and bent down to see her injury. " it's not that big. Stop crying like a baby." "Are you serious!! You..You are such a bad man I have ever met. Even my neighbour's son feels sad after hurting me. And you!! Huh!!" she said with an angry pout. He chuckled and stood up. He gave his hand to her to get up but she slapped his hand and stood up herself whining in pain. --------------------------------------------------- "Stop coming near me, or, or," she stuttered, trying to break free from his cage-like hold. "Or what, little one?" he whispered hoarsely in her ear. She didn't like it - that was what her mind was screaming. But she also knew it was a turn-on for her. "Just leave me, Mr. Knight," she tried to act bold, but all her words came out as a mere whisper. He smirked and moved closer, their bodies touching. She could feel his heavy bulge against her lower abdomen. She bit her lip. He moved in closer, and before she could speak, he claimed her lips, shocking her to the core. "Mine..." ----------------------------------------------------------- He is broken, she is his cure. He is alone, she has everyone. He is cold, she is on fire. She ain't any innocent, naive girl but a fiesty one. What will happen when they both meet after their first encounter??Complete//Author's Note //
