Imagine this.
At a young age, you lost the only true love you ever felt from a father out of nowhere. Just ripped from your life.
Few years later. You find a brotherly love. More than just that. A best friend kind of love. Maybe a little more than that but, they leave you as well. Just gone from your life.
It pains you. You normally hide this but you just reached a point that you can't hide the tears well no more. Can't hide the fact that you're destroyed from within.
Just again, few years later. That fatherly love suddenly returns. The friendship love comes back. You have it back. But with a price. You learn life isn't what you thought it was. It made your head spin. You wanted to go back to the old you.
Your best friend is a wolf. Your dad is a wolf. You. Are part wolf. This whole world isn't perfect like you thought. Arrange marriages are real and you're in it. You can't back out.
So what do you do?
You accept it.
That's what I had to do, no?

Crimson Vows (Book 1 of Crimson Empire)(Completed)
"We never asked for this. Our lives were written by others, our hearts shackled to a contract neither of us wanted. But somewhere between the lies we told ourselves, we found something we never expected to feel-something dangerous, the truth ." Love was a luxury I never sought, never allowed myself to want. I built walls so high, pushing people away to keep them safe, only letting a few in for fleeting moments of pleasure. But when her parents demand an arranged marriage to unite our families, my father has no choice but to agree. Defy them, and we risk everything. I knew her already-knew the way the sun made her skin glow, the way her curly brown hair danced with every step she took. But did I like her? That was a whole different question. Our families' hatred ran deep, centuries of bloodshed and betrayal fueling the fire that had burned between us for as long as I could remember. The only reason I even tolerated her was because of her brother-my best friend. The one person I thought I could trust... until I learned I was never supposed to be his ally at all. Now, fate has forced us into a marriage neither of us wanted. It feels like a foreign limb, an unwanted tumor growing at my side, suffocating every ounce of freedom I had. The question is-can we both survive this? Or will one of us end up broken, shattered by the weight of what we never asked for? But somewhere along the way, the impossible happened: I fell for her. Completely. Undoubtedly. And now, I don't know if we'll make it out alive... or if we'll destroy each other in the process.Complete

For Crying Out Loud
Best friends are hard to come by, and it's even harder not to fall for them. Jake and I are pushing six years in our friendship, and my love for him is undeniable now. It's ironic because he was in love with me, or claimed to be, but I didn't feel the same. And, of course, we did date. For like two months, but that ended and he move on to a girl who should have been my friend. I'm still in love with him though, even though it took me forever to uncloud my mind to realize it. It's much to late to fight for it now. It's gone, and so is who he used to be. I remember when those eyes landed on me that night. I can still see the moon reflecting in those enchanting orbs of hers. I remember how her smile seemed to be brighter than the fire. I also remember how I barely said a word to her the whole night. Kayden sat with her instead, and they laughed and flirted. They ended up dating for three months before she ended it, but that night. The night before she dated my cousin, before she planned for Boston, before I met Amy, and before everything fucked up. That night I swore one day I'd call her mine, and I would never, not ever, let her slip away. Now that, my dearest friends, is real irony.Complete

They say however that the best way to get over someone is to get with someone else but with 2 days notice to find a date how will I pull it off and not seem like a total dork? ... I'll be putting trigger warnings before some, but not all because again, this book is dark so please be aware before you continue reading. Secondly, I do not recommend this book to anyone under the age of maturity (continue at your own risk) due to there being ALOT of explicit language and scenes that are heavily detailed and not suitable for everyone. I'm not putting warnings beforehand every single time, so continue at your own risk. Thirdly, I'm open to constructive criticism but not rudeness. Some people are passive aggressive and I'm sensitive. I will mute you with a quickness. And lastly, everything in this book that has to do with organized crime is a work of fiction. None of the characters, events, or descriptions are real. Also, do not romanticize the mafia. It isn't anything like we see written in books. It's much worse.Complete
