When pressured to marry, Sarah Miller, a maid, becomes Ramsey Blackwell's unexpected choice. But as he begins to genuinely care for her, he must decide if she's more than an option.

* * *

Sarah and Ramsey are complete opposites. She works as a maid, while he is the son of her wealthy employers. Suddenly, Ramsey Blackwell proposes marriage to her. Flustered and unsure of how to react, Sarah dismisses his proposal as an impulsive and expensive joke. His mother, too, believes it's just another one of his whims. However, Ramsey remains committed, much to their surprise.

Sarah finds it hard to understand why he would choose someone like her. Nothing about her stands out - not her name, background, or looks. For years, her focus has always been on her family and their needs. Despite her reservations, Ramsey persuades her by highlighting the benefits of their union, perhaps it would finally silence his mother's constant nagging to settle down.

Caught in a swirl of emotions, Sarah ventures into a world vastly different from hers. Yet, she grapples with deeper anxieties: Is Ramsey's kindness and affection genuine, or is she just a convenient option for him?All Rights Reserved

Anyone But Her by LorPhoenix

Wren and Kenna hated each other in high school. Now mature-ish adults, they still hate each other. The problem? They're engaged. A year away from marriage, according to two of the most powerful people in the world: their parents. ***** Wren Castile and Kenna Gold are engaged...because their parents say so (and no, they're not kidding). Wren has one year to marry her former nemesis, or else. The fact that Kenna emulated her infamously anti-gay father throughout high school seems to be irrelevant--even to Kenna herself. Suddenly Wren and the girl she never wanted to see again are on the same (bickering) side as they face mandatory dates, disastrous family get-togethers, and their unhappy past. Wren is filled with mistrust, but to protect her heart, she might just have to sit back and let it lead the way. Content/Trigger Warning: This story contains references to and/or scenes of homophobia, childhood trauma, bullying, violence, and suicide.

Warning: This dark slow-burn romance contains a seductive web of intimate encounters and forced proximities that may leave you breathless.

Ryan Malhotra "From a ruthless businessman to a man of strength, purpose, and a lifelong journey, all in the name of her love." ___________________________________________ In the depths of the human heart, love and hate coexist as inseparable forces, like the sun and the moon sharing the same sky. Revenge, a relentless tide, ebbs and flows between them, driven by the currents of passion. As characters entangled in this intricate web, we navigate the labyrinth of emotions, where the line between salvation and destruction is as thin as a lover's whisper. In this tale of love's redemption and hate's seduction, we are left to wonder which path will lead us into the heart of our own desires.

P.S. I HATE YOU by Sunshiny_67

"Why?" I asked. He didn't answer me, his eyes were calm and cold. "You cannot just take anybody's life!" I yelled at him. He took a step towards me, putting his hands in the pockets of his slacks. "I can." He snapped. "But why? It's not like you care for me, is it? Is it because he was harassing me?" I asked, desperately waiting for his answer. "I don't give two fucks about you. I am tolerating you just because you're useful to me, once I am done with you. You're over!" He seethed calmly. I got close to him and grabbed his collar, pulling his face down to my level, "Then why did you killed him?" I whispered near his nasty face. "Because now you belong to me, and no one can touch what's MINE." He whispered dangerously near my lips, his gaze piercing through my wet eyes. His gaze shifted to my lips which were inches apart from him. Our bodies were almost touching, an unknown burning sensation building between us. __________________ Sidharth Shukla, the richest billionaire of America, who owned multi national companies, universities, restaurants and bars.

In her fragility, he found something worth protecting.

Illumined Desires by arthyawrites

"He looked like her like he just realized what love is." 𖤓☽ "Can I..." I hesitated for a moment, but because it's the one thing I needed most, I pushed through, "will you just hold me for a minute." He didn't hesitate and tugged me against his chest. His arms wrapped tightly around me, and then I felt his breaths warming the top of my head. Slowly, I turned my cheek, and then I listened to his steady heartbeat. I shoved all my fear, my confusion, and my uncertain feelings for him aside and allowed myself to be weak. I closed my eyes, and grabbing hold of his sides, I fisted the fabric of his shirt. Before the tears come, I pulled away from him but he took one look at my face then yanked me back to him. Emotions whirled in my chest, and then a new one joined the chaos. Affection. It's as if he knows exactly what I need without me having to say a word. He pressed kisses against my hair, his voice an anchor that kept me from drowning as he murmured, "It's okay, love." Another kiss, and his arms clamped tightly around me. "You have me."
