Dangerously Yours[Dave East]
Maria thought Mike was everything she wanted when they first got together at 21. He had charm, a little edge, and the kind of confidence that made her feel safe. But three years later, that shine is gone. Mike is controlling, jealous, and only focused on what he wants. Maria feels trapped but stays, scared to let go of what she knows even if it's toxic. Everything changes the night she crosses paths with him. He isn't a coworker or a friend of a friend he's just there. A stranger who feels familiar. The type who doesn't say much, but when he does, it hits deep. He carries himself with strength, someone who's clearly lived through things but wears it with pride. There's a mystery about him, the kind that makes Maria's heart race in a way Mike never could. Now Maria is torn. The hood has rules, and leaving Mike isn't just about breaking up it's about risking her safety, her reputation, maybe even her future. But the more she tastes freedom, the more she realizes she can't keep living in fear.
Everything Changes
Aria had a simple life, she had her friends, her brother, and her parents. At the time she thought life couldn't get any better; minus the guy she was in love with was having a hard time noticing she's the one. But when tragedy strikes, she doesn't know how to deal with it. Losing someone close to her and the guilt that eats away at her heart. How do you deal with it? The life she had known was gone. The pain feels like drowning. Though putting your life together is hard when you keep finding out people aren't who they say they are. Who could possibly help her keep her head above water? Someone she least expected? Could he be the one to save her, before it all becomes too much? Ryder didn't leave much falsehood to rumors. A complete playboy. He didn't have much he cared about in life anymore, at least, other than his friends. They were the only ones who knew his dark secrets, the mystery that hid in his eyes. That's the way he liked it, usually keeping to himself, not giving a shit what anyone thought about him. When Aria walks in his life, things get shaken up. Now, life starts getting a little more interesting.Complete
Bow-Legged
Shall we do an experiment? Hear me out: an enemies-to-lovers where love is complicated but never toxic. Where the female lead knows what she wants and takes it. Where the male lead doesn't growl, rage or slam her into walls. A journey with all the angst, secrets, spice and heartbreak of dark romance without the abuse. Are you ready? ******************************************** It's 1984, Queen on the radio and rage in the streets. Moira Bourne, stretched thin between her nanny job, family drama and university classes, fights for the recognition she deserves. Evander Ward, fresh from a gap year in Europe and eager to prove himself, is ready for redemption. Two people whose paths were never meant to cross. When they do, the collision blows their life to smithereens. ******************************************** "Pass the tea, will you?". It came over me - it being it all, the shame, the anger, the sense of injustice and the nine hours I hadn't slept the night before. Those, maybe, more than anything else, because I reached for said tea and, possessed by that mighty cocktail of resentment, spat in it. I did so making sure he could see it, he could hear it. Then I passed it over to him and waited. His smile, at this point, had turned overjoyed, putting the previous ones to shame, revealing their graft. He had received the answer he was hoping for. He took the cup and chugged it down. Looked me straight in the eye and drunk it all. ******************************************** Fair warning: mentions of racism, ED, assault, sexism, and classism ahead. You know where your limits lie.

She lost everything. He never let anyone in. Until now. When Mike-a wealthy, emotionally guarded businessman-witnesses a woman struck by a car on the streets of Manhattan, he has no idea how much it will unravel the life he's spent years controlling. She wakes in a hospital with no name, no memories, and no one looking for her. Against every instinct, Mike brings her home. Jennifer is fragile but stubborn, broken but intuitive. As she recovers in his quiet penthouse, strange dreams begin to haunt her-of a little boy, of screaming, of something she can't remember but can't escape. And Mike? He knows who she is. He knows what happened. And every day he doesn't tell her, it gets harder to let her go. But Jennifer is slowly discovering herself again-and digging into parts of Mike he's buried deep. As secrets build and memories threaten to return, they're forced to ask the question neither of them is ready for: Is it safer to forget the past... or to face the truth together?Complete

Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt)
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book.
