Little by little, Altair wanes down Cooke's patience and she snaps. What could go wrong with the hooked teenager and the fucked-up Sergeant? Only time will tell.

RAGE: Consume Me || BWWM
(Book 2) Amira and Rowan have been dating for almost a year. Their relationship has blossomed; it has flourished. The sex is great, communication is on point, and they seem to understand each other so well. But hardships are inevitable, and sometimes those hardships can make or break a relationship. Amira made the first move; she won Rowan over. Now he's invested. He's consumed, and he doesn't want to ever let her go. Can she handle the pressure? Can she withstand the knowledge of his past? Can she overcome her own faults and insecurities? And can she stick by Rowan's side through their toughest times? After all, it takes a lot more than just love to maintain a relationship. I RECOMMEND READING THE FIRST BOOK (RAGE) TO FULLY UNDERSTAND THIS ONE. BOOK 1 WAS MOSTLY BDSM. BOOK 2 IS MORE OF A SHORT STORY, AND IT FOCUSES MORE ON THE MAIN CHARACTERS' RELATIONSHIP. ⚠️ Read at your own discretion. This book is MATURE, and it's rated 18+ for crude language, intense BDSM scenarios, descriptive sex scenes, triggering content, and taboo topics ⚠️ Copyright ©️ 2023 JLB_18Complete
sad, beautiful, tragic // j.r.b
~some things you just can't speak about.~ // hazel eloise finley's old english and frankly quite pretentious name was never released to public whenever she survived the shooting at her high school. not even after the paramedics took her away with a severe bullet wound to the calf or even whenever she drug and hopped herself outside for medical attention afterwards either. only known as the jane doe that survived a school shooting, and the years of physical therapy, permanent nerve damage and chronic pain proved to be the least of her worries. it took years of therapy, hospitalizations, and prescriptions for her to even feel ready to start college after high school. and whenever she did, much like her name, she was determined to bury it. despite the trauma she went on to become one of the most gifted music majors enrolled at the prestigious university in Nashville, TN, an honors student, a residential advisor, and slowly making her way to the student council someday. Though just coming into her sophomore year, a heavily tattooed literature major transfers into the room across from hers that throws everything off track. Julien Rose Baker infuriated her at first, not only because her friends and roommates were loud and obnoxious and stayed up all hours of the night playing loud music and probably doing anything but studying, but because she was better than her, in every sense of the word. sight reading music without missing a beat or a note, shredding her guitar in nearly every practice room, leaving most professors in awe of her vocal range, and not to mention the writings of hers read during some of the english classes the two shared. it was jealousy at its finest. though whenever an unexpected turn of events leaves hazel almost having no choice but to be vulnerable, something else besides avoiding her dorm neighbor might turn into something else. ~ TW for gun violence, ptsd, anxiety, depression, etc...Complete

When The Ringing Stops
When the ringing stops, she's there. Artemis Kelley's world ended with a car crash and a flatline. Since her mother's death, silence doesn't exist anymore. There's always a high-pitched ringing in her ears, a reminder of the moment everything broke. She's barely holding herself together - balancing grief, a volatile home life, and the slow collapse of the only place she ever felt safe. Then she meets Ryan. Silver hair. Sea-glass eyes. Too calm. Too observant. And for the first time in over a year... the ringing stops. Ryan makes the world feel quiet again. Safe. Manageable. But girls like Ryan don't appear out of nowhere without a reason. And Artemis is starting to realize that the peace she feels around her might come with a price. Ryan is hiding something. Something dangerous. Something that could ruin everything - or save her. Some connections heal you. Others pull you deeper into the dark. And once Artemis steps into Ryan's world... there's no turning back.
