️Running With Scissors ✅
Constance thought she could finally stop looking over her shoulder. She has a steady job as a hairstylist, rents a small apartment next door to her best friend, and keeps a routine that distracts her just enough to not have to dwell on her past. All seems right in her world until a homeless man who's on the FBI's Most Wanted list comes barreling through the salon, effectively ripping apart all the hard work she put into her life. Now she is forced to live as a fugitive from the law alongside the infuriating man who might just be the one to drag the skeletons out of her closet. Between her unresolved past and his unsure future, Constance works to clear his name so she can go back to living inconspicuously before the FBI catches them, or worse before the Mafia catches her. *** Luca didn't want to get attached. He had learned the hard way that people are innately bad and nobody really cares about you; his situation is a prime example of that. However, when a bossy woman shows kindness for no other reason than she wants to, he can't help but return to her house to save her from the goons following his trail and suddenly finds himself responsible for a woman with a past as mysterious as his future. With his new traveling companion having the appetite of a bear and an inability to be quiet, he soon learns that Constance is hard to keep at arm's length. While desperately trying to prove his innocence, Luca gets unexpectedly wrapped up in the strange, caring, trouble-making girl who just might be the key for him to get his life back. *** Highest Ranking: #1 Scissors #6 FBIagent #9 FBI #10 OnTheRunCompleta

Nineteen years of familiarity are erased for a stranger, a new city, and a house that never feels safe. The man is almost a stranger. His children are worse. Liv learns quickly that this isn't a fresh start-it's a quiet trap. Torrey Newton is the worst of it. Twenty years old. Cold-blooded. A sadist behind perfect composure. Torrey doesn't raise her voice, doesn't need to. She breaks people slowly, deliberately. She has everything-money, influence, fear-everything except the one thing that still owns her thoughts: the girl who walked away and left her hollow. Maddy Longing. Her name alone is poison. Beautiful in a way that ruins lives. The kind of woman people warn you about after it's too late. To some, she's the cruelest human alive. To others, the most devastating lover they've ever touched. She leaves marks no one can see and scars no one admits to. And somehow, she never really leaves. When Liv meets her, she doesn't recognize the danger-only the pull. Torrey does. Now Liv is living in Torrey's house, breathing her air, and reaching for what was never meant to be hers. Desire turns into rivalry. Rivalry turns into obsession. And Maddy-always at the center-keeps dragging them back into the same dark orbit. Bound by a family they didn't choose and a woman who ruins them both, Liv and Torrey spiral-hurting each other, wanting the same thing, and finding that no matter how far they run, they always circle back.
