People run away, love doesn't.

The woeful life of Rose Barnes is showing no signs of improvement. She's alone in a new city, drowning in debt, with dwindling job prospects. It only gets worse when she finds herself right in front of the one person she has been terrified of meeting again. 

Dev Malhotra, son and heir to an illustrious real estate family, is on his way to extravagant success. Memories of the only girl who could make him nervous, seem far behind. Then suddenly she appears. But she's changed. Her spirit is wounded.

Battling the chaos of her life isn't easy for Rose. But it's even harder to fight her feelings for Dev that are spiraling out of control. Not to mention, even eight years haven't made Dev any less protective of her.

The thing about fate is that when the story seems to end, a new chapter begins...

So close that things happen. What happens? Do sparks fly?

Pure Hate by ineslepeuch

What would you do if your boyfriend broke up with you for someone else? Even worse. She is that girl. Popular, shallow and horribly perfect. The one who makes all of your insecurities stand out. So I decided to hit him harder. The only thing that would piss him off more than seeing me with another guy would be seeing me with this guy. Because no one likes it when the enemy takes away something that used to be ours, not even when we left it behind as if it wasn't worth a penny. He hates him and it would be the perfect revenge. It really would if I didn't hate him even more. Growing up with the person you hate most in the world just because he's your brother's best friend is hard enough. Then imagine asking him to fake date you in order to make another guy jealous... Hopeless, huh? Well, consider me a hopeless cause because now, is the time for my revenge. 𓆝 𓆟 𓆞 𓆟 𓆝 This story contains mature themes and inappropriate language, not suitable for all audiences.

Educational validation is the only thing that has kept her on the rails after all. But then she meets the one and only Blake King, the womanizer that just moved to town, but why? He might look like mister perfect but what is he hiding underneath that handsome face? Everyone has a story, it doesn't matter how ugly or painful they are. All our souls long for is to create new ones with the people they love. - - This book is labeled mature due to use of strong language and mature (triggering) topics. - - First few chapters are in need of some deep editing, (punctuation and grammar mistakes) it gets better the further you get into the story.
