american black cliche commitment dakota dylan fiance fiction phobic roses spinster

Meet 25 year old Dakota Klein. In her own eyes, she's ugly, undesirable, and unwanted. But the three men who love her beg to differ. Yes, you heard right; THREE MEN. Her ex-fiancés, to be exact.

Because she doubts her overall self-worth, she finds it very difficult to believe that any of these men would be satisfied with her once they married her. Hence, she hasn't once made it down the isle yet. To distract herself, she drowns herself in work, focusing on the business she owns: Klein's Tailoring and Dress Making.

She doesn't believe in fate, but one day she gets a customer like no other. 

Meet 26 year old Dylan Sutherland. The cocky yet kind poker-player who is-more or less-scared of commitment. But one night, he makes a bet with his buddies that he can get a girl to marry him by Valentines Day. Which was in four weeks. The only condition? He gets to choose the girl. 

A story of self worth, trust, love, and A LOT of clichés. :)All Rights Reserved

One Drunken Night by DauntlessGeek

Stephanie Coleman's life is perfect, she's in the honor roll, has caring parents, and the two best friends she could ever ask for. She's cheerful and can light up the room the second she steps in, everybody loves her. Dylan Reed is your typical arrogant jerk in school. He treats every girl like a piece of shit and doesn't give a fuck about a girl's existence. He's popular in school and a kiss from him makes history. Steph hates this guy the minute she laid eyes on him, but mix these two together and you have one hectic friendship. And soon, Steph discovers that maybe Dylan isn't really what he appears to be, maybe behind that mask of anger hides a thousand stories that aren't meant to be told, even if it meant reliving the past. **WARNING: this story is very cliche as I am a sucker for those, so if you don't like cliches, you have been warned ;) and we were 13 years old when we made this so also be warned about the first few chapters for they are very crappy
