His lips are dominating my own, as his hands travel down my back, and he tugs on my shirt, to release it from my skirt. His hands then caresses my bare skin for a few minutes, before he sits up. He brings me with him, and I'm now straddling his lap. His eyes are filled with lust, and I'm so damn scared, for completely different reasons than earlier tonight. His skillful fingers finds the buttons of my shirt, and he opens them slowly, while I lean back down towards him, to make our lips connect again. I might come to my senses if he doesn't keep kissing me. He tugs the shirt off of me, and his hands run across my bare stomach. He stops, suddenly, and I feel a sharp sting under my left boob. "What happened? Are you..." He trails off, as he looks down at my body, and I stiffen. Holy shit, I forgot all about that. "Ives... What is this?" he asks, and he pulls his hands away from me. 🌹 Ives has just moved away from her overprotective brother and their alcoholic dad to go to college. She is trying her best to put her past behind her, but it keeps coming back to haunt her. In this book we get to know Ives and her new friends as she struggles with her newfound freedom.

When he meets a shy and sweet Scarlett, his dreams feel like they are coming true, but will she break his heart and return to her life back in the city, all without giving Brody and Whitedale a real chance? *** He reaches his hand out to mine and I happily let him hold it. I can feel my heart hammering so loudly in my chest. I bite my bottom lip while gently tracing my fingers in circles over his hand. He grips my hand a little tighter which pulls my eyes to his. "What's going on in that pretty little head of yours?" His voice deep while his fingers move from my hand to push some loose hair behind my ear. My breath hitches in my throat at his touch. His thumb traces my bottom lip, his eyes darken with hunger and need. Clearing my throat, I wriggle out of his hold and divert my eyes down to my lap. *** Dual POV 18+ Mature scenes Strong language

Unbreakable(Boondock Saints) by _normanmarkreedus

Emily Moore is a 24 year old who was originally born in London but moved to Boston when she was 19. She was never planning on building a life there; it was merely supposed to be a pit-stop before she moved onto the next country on her travel across the world. Obviously fate had different plans for her as she soon found herself fond of the place she now calls home. The only down side to the end of her travelling dream was the years she wasted learning different languages to prepare herself, but she was yet to realise they could actually come in handy soon. For the past six years she has been working at McGinty's where she gets to spend time with her surrogate granddad Doc, her annoying brother/bestfriend figures Conner and Rocco and most importantly her boyfriend Murphy. They hit it off instantly but it wasn't until two years ago that they hooked up after a booze filled 22th birthday party for Emily. Not the most romantic way to start a relationship, but they've been together ever since. They weren't your average couple. They didn't walk around calling each other boyfriend and girlfriend or constantly telling each other that they loved one another because they just didn't need too. They both mutually understood that he was hers and she was his- Murphy often making sure every other man in the pub knew as well- and they both knew how much the other loved them; often more through actions rather then words. Although they often liked comparing their relationship to cheesy Westlife songs, 'Unbreakable' always coming out on top in their list of favourites.

You + Me = ? by MonishShah

The story may sound common but its not. Its different and fresh. Its also my first story, so I'm open to any of your suggestions. :) "Go England !! " shouted Brandon. He was always like this : cricket enthusiast. Meet BRANDON, He loves cricket and he is loved by all. Of course why wouldn't he be, he was just too much fun. Living in the outskirts of London with his adopted but extremely caring mother, he lived a wonderful life like any working Britisher of London. Drinks, nightlife, party, friends, a satisfying job – he had everything in his world of fantasy but all would have been incomplete without one person ,Sia, his best friend. Where on one side Brandon was a carefree-enthusiastic and flirtatious bachelor, Sia was a calm ,sensible (compared to Brandon) and hard working girl. Both of them are best friends for 18 years. They shared each and every part of their lives and promised to stay with each other no matter what. All of their friends thought, that their friendship would end up in to love and then marriage, but those two had other plans apart from each other. Hatred, frowns, shouting, caring, laughter -kept these two individual lives together in the good and bad times, but with all the goof ups and incidences ,one question was always stuck in their minds, ”YOU + ME = ??”
