JENNIFER RUE:

I thought I had my life all mapped out. 

But nothing throws a wrench in your plans like finding your fiancé in bed with another woman. 

Untangling myself from the damage Darren did is hard, but the more I look back, the more I realize how much control I'd let him have over me. 

Now it's time to find out what I want. What I want in life and what I want in love. 

And what I want is him. 

But David Davis is almost too good to be true. Can I really trust myself with a new guy again?


DAVID DAVIS: 

Building a life from scratch takes time. 

And that's what I've been doing for the past four years. 

I have a great career, suddenly finding myself on a medley team with my best friend, a rookie and an Olympic legend. 

I am on my way to becoming a lawyer. 

I have great friends and a caring family.

But something is missing. 

And it's not until I meet her that I find out exactly what - or who - that is. 

But Jennifer Rue is just coming out of an engagement that left her burnt. Will I be able to convince her to trust me?All Rights Reserved

Harper's Rules 1 & 2 by still_just_me

We're not in love. Our past is a dumpster fire. The best we are is friends with benefits... without the friends' part. Jake Harrison, USC's star quarterback, goes through girls faster than jock straps. If that's not disgusting enough, he's my best friend's brother and my prime motivation for celibacy. Transferring to UCLA means finally getting out of my dad's house. All I want is to stay under the social radar, make Dad proud by earning my paralegal certification, and get out of Los Angeles. When Jake learns I'm nearby, the cocky jerk will stop at nothing to rekindle what didn't work before. He thinks he's grown and matured past the boy who crushed my teenage heart. I think he's taken too many tackles into the turf, but when he proposes a stress management agreement during his season... I can't help but see his point. His seven-and-a-half-inch point. The last time we indulged, we got sloppy. Not the good kind-soul-crushing feelings-sloppy. My brain knows cutting ties was for the best, but the rest of my body still hates me. But I won't be made a fool again. This time, I have rules: No attachment. No cuddles. And no falling in love. Yet, when treacherous feelings resurface, I do the worst thing possible-Break my own rules. This time, whoever falls first isn't getting back up. Story is complete.

Noah (5th Street series) by elizabethreyes__

Veronica Cruz has been through hell and back. After disconnecting with the world two years ago to be at the side of her dying mother, she's left alone, unemployed, overweight, and feeling a decade older than her twenty-eight years. When her best friend coaxes her into joining the local gym to ditch her depression and rejuvenate her life, she meets Noah. Assigned to help Veronica lose weight, Noah is everything she expected a young trainer to be-perfectly chiseled, supportive and motivating. Add to that, he's incredibly sexy. He's everything she's ever looked for in a man. What she least expected was for him to fall for her, but he has. There's just one glaring problem: Noah is eight years younger. Noah Quintanilla has his eye on a boxing title-someday. Down for a few months with an injury, his maintenance-boy pay at 5th Street Gym won't cut it. He's finally given the opportunity to train. The catch? His trainee is an out-of-shape woman with a free week pass. Taking on the challenge, Noah stumbles into one of the closest friendships he's ever known, and before he knows it, he's in love. But Veronica's not having it-the age difference is too much. Their platonic relationship means having to watch her date other men-something that would make him crazy. Believing he's the man for her, Noah sets out to prove that age is but an illusion, and there's more to him than just a number.

Bully stepbrother by shesdreamingiamshe

BOOK 1 in the Drowning/Bully Standalone Series. WARNING: This book contains intense bullying, explicit scenes, triggering language, violence, and psychological content. "You need to call off this party," I boldly told my stepbrother in the kitchen. He cocked his head attractively, his thin eyes scrutinizing me. His upper lip curled up in that seductive habit that I had become familiar with. "And why should I do that?" he murmured. His eyes were come-to-bed-with-me stunning, inviting with me with that inescapable pull, and damn if I didn't wet my panties. Get it together, Madison, said my insidious voice. I almost complied with that command until Caden went on and said something that left me breathless before his egotistical smirk. "Will you be my snack tonight?" He hates you. Don't forget that. I was reminded by my subconscious. *** Caden always goes extreme to make my life a living hell since after our parents got married four years ago. Although I'm similar to my stepbrother-the only difference between us is: I am a surreptitious bully, and Caden's a blatant bully. I wonder how sharing the same apartment for our first year at Stanford University will turn out. Honestly? I'm not eager to find out. Step into an adventure of passion, forgiveness, and second chances in this compelling two-part saga. This is Caden and Madison's story.

Despite the short distance, the couple never made it there. Julia wakes up in a hospital, broken and alone. She learnt that they'd been in an accident that claimed her husband's life and sent her into a coma for 12 days. Heartbroken, depressed and disabled, she found herself stranded in a foreign country with no one to lean on. Or so she thought. Adreanna loved her brother more than anyone in the world. He was her father, mother, and best friend. He was her everything. Then he was gone. Julia was the closest thing left to her brother. Adreanna's intentions were to just get to know the woman her brother married, look after her on his behalf until she could look after herself again and eventually return home. But life wiped out those plans before they even cemented as the two women, in a time of hurt and grief, seeking closure, companionship and love, formed a bond they didn't even realise was growing until it was too late. Now they're stuck at a crossroads, having to decide between love and ethics. The sequel to Drea is out now. It is called Mrs Jones. You can find it on my profile. <3
