Jacqueline Winters is an ordinary woman to everyone-with the exception of her loving spouse, of course. Like every other ordinary person, she lives the life of an ordinary NYC private office worker- waking up, promising to have a proper English breakfast one day while chewing stale brown bread, packing up her brief case and running off at an anti-hero organization and not coming back until late at night, and that too, drunk- it's a monotone, monochrome life.

 Except, her position at AMM (Albatross Moral Murders) does not, like most privately owned organization, only kill the economy. It also kills people. And it doesn't nearly rake in enough to give it's employees insurance benefits. Oh well, just an everyday cottage industry, service category. However, when her brother-in-law's murder goes brilliantly but the getaway gets messy, she finds herself unequivocally tossed into a mess of monochrome, murder-coloured characters.

 Before she knows it, she, Jacqueline, 2nd LvL Firearms officer at AMM, Mrs. Moyna Pippins, 1st LvL Getaway Coordinator, Inspector Morton etc etc are all stringed together into the scarlet thread of murder (*nods at Sir Doyle*). Scarlet- like the arteries that draw blood from hearts- hearts that beat for one another in iambic proclamations of love through entirely personal eternities. TLDR: Love, love, blah blah. You're on Wattpad, you know the drill. Sometimes, a bit of love acts as hotter glue to fix life than romance. We'll see.

Push and Pull by JahoonPark
15 parts Ongoing Mature
Blake Johnson never asked for the spotlight. As the heir to her parents' luxury empire, she's spent years pretending-hiding her truth, her pain, and her heart. Being intersex was enough to make her a disappointment. Falling in love with a woman? That would be the final betrayal. Her parents control everything-their image, their company, and now her. When they assign her to oversee their latest photoshoot, she expects another dull, miserable obligation. Then Sabrina Carpenter walks in. Famous. Gorgeous. Untouchable. Sabrina is everything Blake was taught to avoid. Yet the moment their eyes meet, something inside her shifts. The chemistry is instant, undeniable, and far too dangerous. What starts as teasing and stolen glances soon turns into something deeper. They begin sneaking around-late-night calls, secret hotel rooms, and stolen hours where they can finally breathe, where the world can't see them. Every kiss feels like defiance. Every touch feels like freedom. But freedom always comes with a cost. Blake's parents would rather see her broken than happy. Their threats grow crueler, forcing her into an impossible choice. To protect Sabrina, she does the one thing that hurts most - she lets her go. But Sabrina doesn't give up easily. She fights back-fiercely, desperately - for the woman she loves, the love of her life. Even if it means risking her reputation, her career, and everything she's built. Because what they have isn't a scandal. It's love. Real. Wild. Unforgiving. Push and Pull is a dark, passionate romance about identity, control, and the kind of love that demands everything - especially when the world tells you it's wrong.

MXM Sequel to Mirror Man. ******** He signed his name on the dotted line. Finally he was out of that marriage. Ten long years of smiling and posturing, keeping up appearances for the sake of his "wife", it had its moments and it fulfilled its purpose, but now it was time to say farewell to "Mrs Fenella Hunter-Moore", and hello to being a single man again. Fenella wasn't a bad person at all, quite the opposite in fact, sweet and classy, an ample figure, crazy blonde hair, a laugh like angels singing, and a liver that could hold more booze than a rugby player, but he didn't love her, and she didn't love him. It was a marriage of convenience, for business connections, conjured up by Fenella herself to save her mothers company from her self destructive loser of a father. Harry Hunter-Moore, top lawyer, university friend and emotional support had been only too happy to step in, assisting his long time friend in the incarceration of her evil father, joining forces in a marriage that served both well, but now it was over. "Thank you Harry, for everything, you've been an excellent trophy husband", Fenella laughed as her ample chest heaved with laughter and her bright blue eyes shone, her dark blonde hair pulled into a ponytail jiggling joyfully as she pulled her now EX husband into a hug. Slipping off his ring in the quiet of his office Harry got to thinking, could he start again?, and this time find something real?. Still hurt by the death of his ex fiancé he didn't know if he could, or even wanted to, but he knew he couldn't just stay lonely. At 56 Harry wasn't sure how, or even if he could. Then on a random night out he meets Alex, and his world turns upside down. Harry gets himself in a mess, then just as things are finally going right, the bomb drops that his ex ISN'T DEAD. ******** if you are reading this anywhere other than Wattpad or inkitt, then it has been copied without my consent. please do not plagerise my work,I would not do it to others.

A modern Pride and Prejudice story. Only sexier. Mira is a refugee, starting a new life far from home. She has to deal with her troubled past, her son, and her enigmatic boss, while her only weapon is her killer sense of humor. It's a slow-building love-hate story, with a strong female lead; two control freak lawyers, fighting for dominance, in denial of their feelings; an alpha discovering his submissive side; lots of humor and humanism. ~73K words ~~~ Warnings: - Mild language. Characters talk like white-collar workers usually do in real life. - Chapter 43 has mild sexual content. It isn't very graphic, it's emotional, rather, but if you don't want to read about it, just skip it. It won't affect the story. ~~~ Featured: - WP Romance's Read Together and Head Over Heels reading list - WP ChickLit and Women's Fiction reading list - WP New Adult's Romance reading list - WP Adult Fiction reading list - WP Classic Authors Twisting Austen's Magical Moments reading list - WP Retold reading list ~~~ Reviews: "You have a lot of literary elements going for you: your style is chock full of subtext, humor, and intelligence. There's a careful craftsmanship in world-building, character development, and theme." Scripturam Awards "A truly unique story with a quite remarkable a plot! It has the ability to convey the emotions stirred within the characters to the depth of readers heart!" The Graphomania Awards "I am beyond impressed with this work. The characters feel real; three-dimensional. The narration does not feel forced in any way, it flows as it reads." The Dream Awards "Some books lead with suspense and cliffhangers that even if you don't want to continue the book you do so just to sate your curiosity. But then a rare gem like this comes along and without any cheap tricks it pulls in, you just continue and keep reading it and you may not even know when you reach the end." Shadow City Awards

Driven to Distraction by _cxloe
40 parts Complete Mature
Alex Thompson was due to marry her high school sweet heart Eric Ramirez. Period. That's it. It's about as exciting as her life ever got really. She had a job, a good job but an unconscious reality was that she was bored. She had her back blown out once every three months, if that, and an overbearing mother who made her life hell. *enter Mitch* Eve 'Mitch' Mitchell. An outgoing, strong minded, independent, raging homosexual, lover to all, charming British soul. They meet by accident after a tough day at the office for Alex. A mistaken identity was all it took for a tiny little kiss. A moment blown all out of proportion for the Christian-bred Miss Thompson and her life turns more miserable than she anticipated for every time she turned around...Mitch was there behind her. Something about Mitch was new and fresh and her soul was just what Alex needed (little did she know). Secrets from the past are brought to the surface. A sad ending to a young lady's life. A realisation that family isn't always blood related. Alcohol isn't a medicine. Violence isn't a key. Hearts were never meant to be broken. Two things to take away: you never know what is going on in someone's head and the most important thing...you never know what happens behind closed doors. A/N just a random story about two people who meet accidentally. Plays with gender norms and very inclusive of LGBTQ (being a member myself). Could be triggering I'm not sure as some identity questions are thrown around. It does include smoking, drinking, some homophobia, profanities, violence and smut. Also anything in brackets with A/N means authors note and that's just me leaving a little comment. Enjoy...
