Between
She's panting, flushed and breathless like something from another century. It hurts to look at her, so stunningly alive in a way he isn't. Almost smiling, too. She has the kind of lips that need undiluted devotion. "You've always looked at me," she breathes. Yes, and he finds himself thinking about ruin. The right kind, like his knuckles against her jaw to shake her apart. Freedom. Maybe in another life, he brushes the hair off her shoulder and whispers, 'Eyes on me.' Maybe in another life, they have time. 𝑫𝒐 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒓 𝒊𝒕? 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒔𝒄𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒔 𝒃𝒆𝒕𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒏 𝒔𝒊𝒍𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆. She isn't his to protect. He's a cop, she's taken, and rules are rules. But Faro Wyatt has mapped every freckle on her nose and dreamt of the oceans in her eyes. His resolve is weakening. So when the radio crackles with a single call, he's breaking every rule from here on out.

But the weight of isolation, the desperation for answer's and the sacrifice of others grow too heavy to bear, forcing Olivia to take a daring risk. Disguised as one of them, she infiltrates Vorrath, enrolling in their elite academy deep within enemy territory. Amid Vorrath's walls, Olivia searches for answers and uncovers truths about the war-secrets that not only threaten her survival but shatter everything she thought she knew about her homeland and herself. Her path collides with Tristan Hudson, a handsome yet dangerous academy trainer who happens to be the son of Vorrath's ruthless president.

As she navigates life at the academy, it becomes evident there's something very different about her, something she won't be able to hide for long. Loyalties fracture, forbidden emotions ignite, and Olivia realizes she is more than just a hidden secret-she is the key to everything.

Raised by a mother who saw her only as a commodity, Serenity was exploited and trafficked, trapped in a dark, silent world of abuse. The only love she knew came from her father-until his sudden death left her utterly alone, forced to survive a nightmare no child should ever face. At 22, Serenity finally finds the courage to flee, escaping to a new city where she builds a life as an assistant to a powerful CEO.

Chasing Charming ✔️
Complete! "You know I really like you, right?" He was definitely drunk. "You do?" I asked. My voice was supposed to be teasing, but I think it came off as a bit startled. He laughed, "Yeah, why else would I trust you with all my secrets?" -- Betty was many things; a romantic, a fashion designer, a bit more jealous than the average girl, great with a camera, a helpful daughter and a good friend. But she was best known for being nice. And usually, the boy did not want the 'nice' girl. But this summer she was going to prove to Mike, her crush since FOREVER, that nice was enough. She was going to have an amazing summer, a perfect Junior year, and finally have her first kiss. It was a foolproof plan. Moving from her childhood home in Arizona to New Mexico at the start of Junior year was never a part of Betty's plan. But sometimes when parents are involved, plans change. So now the nice girl had to start over at a new school in a new State. And when the (maybe not so bad) bad boy, Eli, gets involved, it might be hard to be known as 'the nice girl'.Complete
