Hers was a life of privilege.

His was a life of pain.

☾ ⋆*･ﾟ:⋆*･ﾟ☾ ⋆*･ﾟ:⋆*･ﾟ☾

As the daughter of the Novara's leader, Paloma Santos has lived in blissful ignorance for as long as she can remember. Hunger, poverty, and death surround her at the hands of her father's reign. Protected from the real world, she does not fully understand the crisis of the society she is living in. This is, until the most wanted rebel group in all of Paxoria abducts her and upends her life.

Roman Mikhailov is the princess' personal bodyguard, assigned by the king himself to overlook her safety. He is a trained soldier with no patience for the sweetheart's attempts to befriend him. He has one true purpose and one true purpose only-- and he can't afford any distractions in the face of the imminent war.

Book 1 in the #VillainLove Series He hates how much he wants her....she hates how good it feels to belong to him. *Reyansh Singhania - A figure of contradiction. An enigma wrapped in a mystery. With the name meaning "ray of light," his behavior is quite the opposite. He is a man of power and influence, a ruthless mafia king who holds the strings of the country's government in the palm of his hand, a man who moves in the shadows, shrouded in secrecy and danger. His presence is felt throughout the land, his face a mystery to all but those closest to him. He is the epitome of ruthlessness, his reputation for heartless brutality and merciless killing well-known to all who dare to cross his path. Yet, despite his fearsome reputation, Reyansh is also a man of great wealth and power. *Amaira Malhotra - (The one who will be beautiful forever) is a vision of ethereal beauty, a woman whose looks are so striking that they seem almost unreal. Her face is a masterpiece, with delicate features and sparkling eyes that seem to hold a hint of mischief just beneath the surface. But what sets her apart from others is not just her physical beauty, but also her kind heart and pure soul. Despite her stunning looks, Amaira radiates a warmth and grace that is completely natural to her. Her personality is a paradox, a mix of sweetness and sass, with a hint of stubbornness that surfaces at unexpected moments. He's cold, cruel - but only with his words. His hands? Always soft when they touch her.

28 parts Complete Mature
After Wrenley Callison catches her costar-boyfriend in bed with someone else, her only plausible choice is to leave L.A. and join her friend, the newly married Duchess of Aurelia. Living in a castle with the new royal as well as her husband, the Prince, should be exactly the getaway she needs to figure out her life. However, what she doesn't account for is a certain bodyguard who seems to despise her from the first night they meet. If that's not enough, her slowly changing feelings for the grumpy protector are sure to make things more complicated. Matteo Wright is a pretty simple man. He likes control and structure and doesn't exactly enjoy when either of those things are messed with. The man lives his life for his job, which includes protecting the crown and his best friend who wears it. What he doesn't need is some American actress who likes to push all of his carefully planned buttons. Especially with the way he starts to crave the extremely irritating woman in a way that's surely not healthy and the exact opposite of controlled.

DISCRETION SERIES - Stand Alone - BOOK #7 Cyrus Mongomery. A retired world-renowned assassin with a resume as sharp and crisp as his aim. Taking down world leaders, gang members, and politicians was effortless, and although his career seemed promising, the elites breathed easier when he retired. That is until the leader of the Bravta called him out of hibernation with a request for leaked information and the head of a traitor on the foot of his doorstep. Cyrus accepts the job and finds himself knee-deep in the world of the mafia. Learning the secrets of the traitor and executing him seemed like an easy job to get him back into the swing of things... or so he thought. Estella Romanov. The partially deaf-mute daughter of Roman Ivanov, Cyrus's target. A writer by day and a reader by night, she lives in the shadow of her father and brother.

But the distraction becomes a bit more than just that as Cyrus finds himself captivated by the sheltered mafia princess. What was simply a distraction quickly turned into an infatuation, fixation, and then, an obsession.

The space was cramped but he closed the door and locked it. Pinned me up against the wall. My breathing hitched when I felt the cold wall on my bare back and I gasp when he grabs my hips. He leans, almost hovering, and kissed my cheek "I'm buying this dress so you can wear it for me one day." I swallow "I'm never wearing this." He chuckles in my ear which makes my stomach feel crazy "You're wearing this for me so I can take it off, darling."

White Lies by dariarhodes

"You can't take all of us, sweetheart." Valen's voice is smooth, teasing, but the way his fingers brush against my hip isn't playful. It's testing. Behind me, Fennec chuckles, his breath warm as he leans in, his lips barely ghosting the shell of my ear. "She could try." His voice dips lower, dragging heat down my spine. "I'd love to watch her try." ------------------------------- Soraya Cordova was never meant to survive. Stolen as a child and discarded as a mistake, she was given a second chance when the Cordovas adopted her into a life of wealth, secrets, and silent wars.

And trapped in a dangerous game of love, loyalty, and lies with the only people who have ever mattered. Because in their world, trust is a weapon. Not all love stories are gentle. Some are jagged at the edges, built on shadows and sins, tangled in pasts too dark to escape. White Lies is one of those stories. It's about the things we do to survive, the lies we tell to protect, and the love that thrives even in the darkest corners. Read at your own risk.
