Meet Zoe - at least, that's what she goes by currently - an introverted computer whiz. She has maybe three friends, one of which is a pretty sexy neighbour. Not that she thinks of him that way.
Give her a laptop and she can do anything, the only problem? She'll do anything. And that can lead to trouble. Or being elbow deep in a shitstorm of bullets by unknown parties that want her dead.
But you know what they say, it's best to be calm in a shitstorm. There will be plenty of time to freak out afterwards.

BROKEN COURAGE (Lucas & Emilia Book 3)
While tortured and held captive as a prisoner of war, she became my reason to keep breathing. The force that fueled my will to fight. To survive. When I woke after the rescue to discover the life I thought I was coming home to was but a figment of my imagination, hallucinations brought about by pain, desperation, and isolation... it nearly broke me. Fifteen years since I first lost her, at last, we have a second chance. Holding her in my arms, finally feeling the warmth of her skin as she melts under my touch, is like a dream. She and her two little girls are now as essential to my existence as the air I breathe. However, just as things start falling into place, the universe steps in, threatening to take it all away. I used to think that choosing her cost me everything I'd ever loved, but now I see that in choosing her and her children, I have the chance to reclaim all that I lost. They are my salvation. My true path to redemption. Which is why I'll leave no stone unturned, why I will scorch this world to the ground if that's what it takes to save them. And when I do, I will fight to convince her once and for all they are meant to be mine, just as I was destined to be theirs. In the Broken Redemption Series, one man's vow to protect the woman he lost becomes a battle between redemption, forgiveness, and the kind of love that refuses to let go. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is Book 3 of Lucas & Emilia's Broken Redemption arc, the emotional conclusion to their story.

Taken by the North
"I-I don't know," I admitted, my voice shaky. "I haven't done that before." "You haven't done..." Kalle's voice trailed off in surprise. "I've had sex before," I clarified quickly, not wanting them to get the wrong idea. "Just... not like this. Not with three men. I've only ever had one partner." I added, embarrassment crept into my voice as I looked away. "Come here." Mac pulled me from Kalle's hands, wrapping his arms around me. His body was solid, steady, making my head spin even more. "How about we give you a little preview," he murmured, his lips close to my ear, "and you decide for yourself if you want to keep going?" *One cabin. Three dangerous men. Nowhere to run.* Trapped in an isolated cabin in the Arctic, Murphy never expected to share her stay with three dangerously irresistible men. What was supposed to be a solo retreat to reclaim her independence turns into something far more intense when she crosses paths with Viktor, Cormac, and Kalle-three men with secrets as dark as the endless winter nights. Their presence is overwhelming, their intentions unclear, and their heated gazes leave her breathless. But there's more to them than just temptation. Something lurks beneath the surface-something lethal. And as the northern lights dance above them, Murphy must decide: Is she in danger, or has she just stumbled into the most thrilling risk of her life?
Ch.I.P. 1: Reactivation {EDITING}
?Highest #12 in '#technology' (17 June 2018)? ⚛ Highest #228 in Science Fiction (30 May 2018) ⚛ "It's alright." I waved my hand dismissively. "I'm allergic to bullshit." ♧♣♧♣♧♣♧♣♧♣♧ Maya Scoren is unique. But she's not the only one, there are nine others supposed to be besides her; two of which never made it past their mother's womb and one who's incompatible. What makes them special, is also what makes them dangerous. Ripped from their normal, day-to-day,school life, family and friends with no warning, they find out who they are. And why they're alive. But fitting back into that normal life they missed so much is proving to be hard. Especially for Maya, who has a tendency to get herself in trouble and extraordinary situations ENTIRELY her fault. (She'd rather die than admit that of course) Old life brings the problem of boys, unwanted advances, homework, teachers and of course, a boyfriend with she had a rather uncharacteristic meet-up. Scott, Sed, Andy are her childhood friends all the way with her in this. Almost all the way. They didn't expect her to change or to come back at all and they are having a HARD time adjusting to the new Maya. She's dangerous, she's hot and she knows it. She has done a lot in the past two years that will catch up to her and stuff after that which refuses to stay hidden. Controlling CEOs, sensitive boyfriend, an obssessed boss is just the tip of the iceberg. And I'm not even touching the problems at her school. Will all this unwanted attention put her in trouble? Author's note: this was my first story ever. It has no proper plot or story but it's fun to read! Also, lots of typos. And grammar mistakes. Tons of them. Tons. You have been warned. (Actually not that many but you've still been warned)Complete
Hidden Ties
All I wanted was one last laugh. One final prank before my best mate moved out. Instead? I broke into the wrong flat and met her-Blair Moore. Blonde, brainy, and armed with enough sarcasm to make me rethink every decision I've ever made. She's awkward, intense, and runs her own cybersecurity company-because of course she does. I was supposed to scare a mate, not fall for a hacker who moonlights as a digital vigilante. So what do I do? Help her land a job that ends with us getting chased by a bloody tech giant. Naturally. And just when I think we've survived the madness, I find out her father killed my dad. Brilliant, right? Except nothing is what it seems-and the truth might just break me before it saves us. AUTHORS NOTE: I know it needs editing and I'm trying my best here. Also, most of my stories are fast paced and this is included.Complete

It Wasn't Love ✔️
"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape. "You drive me fucking crazy, Aria." ---------------------------- Aria Bailey finds it hard to fit in. Her parents are always busy and never have time for her.
