My Lucky Star (Complete)
There are two stories in this book. #1. My Lucky Star What would you do to change your fate? Pray with all your heart. Then give all your bad luck to someone who really care for you. Would you be able to do that? That's what little Daniel did to his childhood friend. Maybe the bad luck made her crossed dressed into male clothes half of her life. Or maybe the freedom given by the clothes. In the end, it's Jules' choice ***** Jules says, "People said a Lady is weak and helpless. They certainly never met me." She adds, "My name is Jules Knight. I'm my own savior. I don't need a man like you to solve all my problems." What crossed her male friend's minds... "Hard to win her heart. She is even more gentleman than I." "You taught me to accept flaws. There's beauty in imperfection. You crossed over and tossed my life upside down. Now I could no longer return to my old life." "She is like my evil twin. We devoured desserts in all the shops we ventured." #2. It started with a LIE "It's okay. Think of this marriage as a simple way to end our problems. Three years later, we shall abolish it. You would have a chance to marry the Lady you love." Ian stares her with unblinking eyes. Abby is a beautiful Lady. Not lacking suitors. He asks, "What did you get from this marriage?" "Freedom. Father is very ill. He wanted me to marry before he died. I don't want him to arrange my marriage with a stranger. At least we are childhood friends." "What if he didn't die in three years?" "It doesn't matter. My beloved would come by that time. He would take me away, far from England." One simple lie. It started their marriage in the wrong path. "Tris, my love for you is never a lie."Complete![Hidden Flames [The Ludovicas: Second Generation Book Three]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/364242619-256-k323948.jpg)
Hidden Flames [The Ludovicas: Second Generation Book Three]
(Can be read as a standalone.) My parents are hell bent on getting me married, convinced that a wife will magically "fix" me. As a mafia leader, idle talks and constant affection makes no sense to me. Never had and never will. Thanks to some dumb rule and my parents' constant nagging, I settle down with the girl of their choice. Irene's the type of girl I would never give a second glance to, the type I would deem average looking. And that's just not it. She's a chatter box who can't survive without physical affection. A complete opposite of me. I never had a need for a wife but with every innocent touch, every stupid smile, every word of hers my walls break down until I am left yearning for her with an intensity I can't even comprehend.Complete
The Kingdom Thief
You know that saying that goes like 'things don't always work out the way you planned'? Well I know that saying very well. It is the only thing that can explain what is happening and why my whole world has been flipped upside down. I'm part of the revolution, I've always been. The king of our little land called Terrian is oppressive and crooked, making the rich richer and the poor poorer. Although he doesn't like using the word 'poor'. People like me are referred to as the 'unfortunate'. As if luck had anything to do with our situation. So how did I get here? How did I go from being the most wanted criminal in Terrian and supporting Jack in his effort to kill the royal family to a guest in that same exact royal family's castle? The only answer I can find is the young prince who, despite his horrible father, gives me hope. Hope for a better life for the unfortunate. Hope for a better ruler. Hope, a thing I barely even remember feeling before. But I can feel as well as see the revolution stirring in the streets right outside the castle. A revolution I helped create. A revolution that was planning on killing the only thing I had faith in anymore. I couldn't let that happen. So let me tell you the story about how I, the notorious Kingdom Thief, got stuck in the middle of this war.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.

Abelle- A Chinese Romance
As everyone knows from the olden days to the present, people marry people that are up to their standards. It's amazing, yet unrealistically normal. Why shouldn't a person with less fortune have to marry someone with less fortune too? Can't it be like a Cinderella story where the prince and his destined princess meet? This story is based on two Chinese lovers in a very rich society here now in the present. Li Abelle's family were once known in China to own the most richest stock company! But ten years ago, the fame ended with a failed offer of a loan from another close company friend; leaving the Li Company to go bankrupt and for Li Abelle to have to make her own fortune. Ten years has passed and Li Abelle is now a popular model appearing on magazine covers, doing photo shoots, and interviews with several reporters who want to know more about her. Life is just fine till Li Abelle is arranged to be married with another man she cannot love. Her true love was faraway in her mind yet so near in blood relations with her fiancee. . It just seems almost impossible for Abelle to be reunited with her destined. With family, status, and the media getting in the way of everything...Abelle starts to lose hope of ever having at least one date with the man she desires. Then Abelle realizes something important from her friends and current fiancee. What is true love? Reminder: In China, the last names are put in front first before the first names. Like Li Abelle, Li isn't her first name, it's her last. I only made exceptions for James and Jina Chan to have their names first. Also characters Jack Ting, Chelsie Fu, and Liu Fang, are addressed by their first names. Parents and other high-class adults in story are called by their last name first. *This is a fiction story, but all other places, cities, and landmarks here are real. Search them up if you don't believe me. ;)Complete

She lived with her mom, and her dad visited regularly, when he could get away from his work; running a top class private boarding school.

"Samantha, you know I'd love you too, but there isn't any school around this area, remember? My school is in the countryside, with nothing within a short driving dinstance" he all but rejected me. "Then can I move schools? Attend your boarding school?" He was silent, then let out a long sigh of defeat. "I'll enroll you now. Pack your things, I'll send a car in the morning for you." That was all I needed to hear, and I was thrilled. Without making noise, I danced around my room and repeatedly thanked him. Later that night, after the usual abuse, I silently packed my things when she was passed out. I hurried in doing it, and stored them at the back of my closet so she couldn't see them when she checked up on me. You're doing it, Sammy. You're finally getting out of here; away from all the bitchy girls, your mom, and old memories with Fletcher. I'm proud of you, girl...Complete
