Morgan Cassidy is trying to do everything she can to run the family business at Northern Lake Lodge after her parents died a year ago. Caught up in her work, Morgan does everything she can do to keep herself distracted from their deaths, wanting everything to run smoothly and to make guests happy with the help of her grandfather. But even her grandfather can see that Morgan needs to take a break from her work. How can she when it's the holidays and it's a busy time?
The day after Christmas, Lucas Bryan, a popstar just barely getting his career off the ground, checks in at the lodge. Morgan is instantly drawn to him, but dating guests is strictly forbidden. Yet, she can't help feeling attracted to him. Lucas feels the same as the two of them hit it off.
But falling for Lucas is crazy when whatever she is feeling will be temporary. Lucas will be gone after a week, and will go right back to touring. Lucas wants her to come along with him, to get out of the small town Northern Lake she had grown up in. How can she leave when she has a lodge to run? Will being with Lucas help her to move on from her parents' death, and to explore the world a little more? Or would her grandfather's medical emergency stop her from leaving the lodge?

Cruel King | 18+ [ON HOLD]
[18+] COLLEGE ICE HOCKEY ROMANCE *~*~* Conrad Taylor is an asshole - everyone knows that. But when you're the star player of the hockey team, your father is one of the richest men in the country, and you have the looks of a tortured fallen angel, not many people seem to care. He certainly doesn't, not when he's too busy riding around with a visible chip on his shoulder. And boy, are they nice shoulders. *~*~* Sophie Pritchett craves normalcy after a lifetime of self-imposed isolation. With her dad's support and her therapist's gentle encouragement, she finally feels ready to step out into the world - or at least into a shared off-campus apartment with a few strangers. Tentatively, of course. Totally doable, right? Only it's not that easy. The girls aren't for the faint-hearted, and that's exactly what Sophie is. Her struggles with personal boundaries and social settings make it more than obvious that she's weird - and that's not including her strange obsession. When the hockey team starts volunteering at the hospital where Sophie teaches art therapy, she suddenly has the perfect excuse to feed that obsession - one that just happens to have Conrad Taylor written all over it. But when an unlikely friendship begins to form between Sophie, Conrad, and Casey - a witty little boy who's been dealt an unfair hand in life - Sophie learns there's a lot more hidden beneath the rude, sarcastic, and cold exterior of Conrad. Maybe he's just a broken little boy with a heart that feels too much. *~*~* Grumpy/Sunshine - Bad boy/Good girl - hates everyone except her Romance with a Brooke Bennett spin on it😜 Book 2 in the Campus Kings Series, but can be read as a STAND-ALONE. Mature 18+ (Language, content, all that good stuff) Enough character development to turn the devil back into an angel. New chapters every Wednesday and Sunday. *Big Fat Smooch* Good to see you again, my lovelies.

This is my first sweet-romance and I'm really excited to be on Wattpad! I'd love to get your thoughts on the story. I really wanted to write a story where the main characters take charge of their lives. But, I didn't want to simply flip the age-old stereotype of boy rescues girl/girl rescues boy. I wanted a heroine and hero that pull themselves out of trouble and are not dependent on each other for salvation. I'd love to hear your thoughts on whether I achieved that or not! Sincerely, JDComplete
