Alex, a charming and carefree soul, had been in a long-term relationship with his girlfriend, Mia. Despite his committed status, sarah couldn't help but feel her heartstrings pull toward him.

As fate would have it, Sarah and Alex crossed paths frequently, sparking conversations that flowed effortlessly like a gentle stream. Their connection deepened with each shared smile and laughter echoing between them. Sarah found herself drawn to Alex's kindness, his infectious sense of humor, and his unwavering support through her struggles.

As time passed, Sarah's feelings for Alex blossomed into something she couldn't deny-a forbidden love that tugged at her heart with each passing day. Yet, she wrestled with the moral dilemma of her growing affection for a man who belonged to another.

Meanwhile, Alex found himself captivated by Sarah's infectious energy, her genuine kindness, and her unwavering dedication to her passions. He felt a connection unlike any he had experienced before, stirring a longing he couldn't explain.

Caught in the throes of an unexpected and undeniable attraction, Sarah and Alex navigated the delicate balance of friendship and hidden desires, all while wrestling with the guilt of their emotional entanglement. As they danced between stolen moments of secret glances and hushed conversations, they found solace in each other's company as their bond deepened.

However, as their feelings intensified, they faced a crossroads that demanded a choice-the courage to confront their emotions and the truth of their growing love, despite the complication his that stood in their way.

In a tale of love, loyalty, and self-discovery, Sara and Alex embarked on a journey of heartache, longing, and the ultimate realization that sometimes the heart cannot be contained by the boundaries of societal norms.

[COMPLETE] Soz this may be cringe, it was written very long ago A seemingly ordinary, working college girl meets a cool, undeniably sexy boy with millions of followers at his feet. How will their completely different lives allow, or prevent them from getting what they want? Expect some drama, flirty lines, steamy scenes, funny best friends, and perhaps, an overall epic love connection. ~ Carter came around the corner as his eyes darkened with a predatory gaze. Oh no. He took a step forward, minimalizing the distance with every dominating stride, as I froze in my spot. My breath hitched as his arms finally encircled my waist and his eyes locked with mine. In one swift motion, he flipped my body so my back was pressed against his chest and hands gripped the curve of my hips. "What game are you trying to play at Valerie?" he spoke in a husky voice. Goosebumps danced along my skin as his hot breath fanned against the shell of my ear and his fingertips lit a trail of blazing heat along the length of my arm. Mentally shaking myself from the trance of that which is Carter Bryson, I tilted my head towards him and whispered; "One where you'll lose." Quickly escaping his hold on me before the tension became unbearable, I spun on my heel to face him and slowly backed away towards the exit. "Good luck though." I added mischievously. With a smirk and a devilish glint in his eyes that could even give hell a run for its money, he replied; "I'm not a player though, baby. I'm the gamemaker." ~ ❗️Mature content.

My name is Delaney and this is my story. I feel compelled to give you fair warning before you embark on my journey. It's messy. It's chock-full of terrible choices and split-second decisions filled with bad judgment. It's rough, complicated and angsty-but, hey, isn't that what real life is? You live and learn through experience. You (hopefully) mature and don't make the same mistakes twice. These, however, are tough lessons to learn when you're trying to navigate through. Sure, dear reader, you will have ideas of how I could've handled it all better-I know I certainly do, in retrospect. But, I'm me. I'm human. And to err is human, right? Isn't that the popular quote people love to use as an excuse? Well-there it is. Read my life story, I dare you, but remember you've been warned. The divorce of her parents does not come as a surprise to Delaney, however her mother's swift decision to relocate to Florida throws her for a loop. After enrolling in classes at university, she makes fast friends with Shane, the quintessentially perfect guy. Jaded by her past experiences with relationships, Shane completely confounds her. He represents everything Delaney believed didn't exist in real life; stability, security and good old-fashioned kindness. It should be effortless. With Shane, it's exactly the type of happily-ever-after story she loves to read, as well as write. Enter Fin: the edgy, risk-taking artist that unrelentingly captivates her attention. Soon after becoming her partner in literature class, he becomes her one and only copyeditor and most trusted confidant. Torn between two different worlds, Delaney stumbles through a range of decisions that lead her on an unexpected journey. She finds herself left with an impossible choice: A life of contentedness filled with ease and love or a passion-filled wild ride that leaves her breathless. However, Delaney also discovers that sometimes the seemingly unimportant everyday decisions end up making the choices for you...

"What are we doing Alex?" He breathes against my lips. That's too sensible of a question, so I ignore it. My brain has yet to return to my body, and right now that is the last thing I'm worried about. "Stay." I whisper against his mouth, my words flowing without any thought. "Stay?" He sits up fully, which results in me straddling him. His expression is full of curiosity and mild shock. "Like stay stay?" I don't respond with words. I'm afraid if I open my mouth, I'll start to overthink and I can't afford that. Instead, I pull my shirt over my head. I do it confidently, in spite of my boldness starting to dissipate as the seconds pass. Ryan swallows. His eyes trail down to my breasts, before he looks at me again with a look I can't name. "Are you sure?" He stares into me. "Promise me you're sure." "I'm sure." I tell him softly. "I promise." ******* ALEXANDRA MONET is a twenty two year old girl, freshly out of college. After landing her dream job working for top fashion designer Adrienne Walker, she moves from a small town in Florida, to the boisterous city of New York.

None of which could prepare her for RYAN RUSSO...the snarky, sarcastic boy who she'll soon find herself thinking about constantly. As much as the two think they can't stand each other, there's an underlying attraction that eventually grows too strong for either them to bare. So they make an agreement...

His rich, velvety voice sent thrills down my spine as he spoke my name. His intense, mesmerising gaze focused on mine, making it impossible to look away. As he drew me closer, his powerful arms wrapped around me, and I could feel the warmth of his breath against my skin. The aroma of his fragrance, a seductive blend of spice and musk, filled the air, making my heart race and my senses whirl. It's as if every aspect of him is intended to captivate and enchant me, keeping me completely entranced. "Release me." I blushed as I neglected his look. As I mentioned, he released me promptly, it appeared that he had forgotten to do so. We stood silent for moments, and then he broke the silence. "So, why were you ignoring me?" he complained. "Why would I ignore you ?" I lied confidently. "I noticed you ignoring me, you were trying to hide me " he protested again. "Well, I don't have reason to confront you", I showed a fake attitude. "As you had reason to hit on those boys from swimming pools!" I felt humiliated, but I maintained control. "Well, I can hit on you too," I get closer to him and sniff his collar. He was astonished, then chuckled. I also smiled. "That was unexpected," he said with surprise. "You'll find out how unexpected I am if you keep bumping like this", I warned him with a grin. "Whoa, is that so? Then I think I'll try to bump into you". ******** Fate brings two strangers together in a chance meeting that leads to an unexpected romance.
