Lisa Davis, a brave and smart girl, blessed with stunning beauty. Tragedy struck her life when she lost her mother in a heart-wrenching accident at the age of 5. Lisa's father, John Davis, later got married to Lisa's stepmother, a kind-hearted woman who would take good care of Lisa. 

However, as time went on, things didn't unfold as expected.

 Claire, Lisa's stepmother, proved to be far from the loving, kind mother she hoped for. Instead, she treated Lisa very badly and her daughter affectionately. 

To make matters more complex, the Davis and Miller families were childhood friends, so they arranged a marriage between their children to further their friendship.

 Mara Davis, Lisa's stepsister, adamantly refused to marry Lugard Miller, considering the rumors that surrounded him. 

Whispers echoed through the city, painting Lugard Miller as an ugly beast. It was said that anyone foolish enough to incur his wrath would meet a swift and deadly end.

 These rumors further flourished, claiming that his face was disfigured so badly that he looked like a monster and he no longer felt the desire to touch a woman because of the catastrophic accident.

 He never showed his face to the public. Clare's daughter pleaded not to be wed to the "ugly beast," and her mother confronted her husband, saying "My daughter will never marry that ugly, useless man from the Miller family, You have another daughter; marry her off to the Miller family. They are a perfect match."

Arranged Marriage to my Mate [Completed but Editing] by soccerluv4

[Completed] Taylor Daniels. Average name, average face, average girl. What about her life? Well, that's a bit complicated. Finding out her werewolf heritage was not part of the seemingly normal life Taylor lived. She'd always been the strong but silent type, concentrating on getting good grades and pleasing her mother. But all that changes when she's merely picked up and dropped into the world of werewolves. She'll have to dust herself off and learn to live with the fact that her life was a lie. What's even more deranged is that her life is at risk. And who can possibly help her? Her so called "mate" Leo Knight. A forced marriage between the two is the only thing keeping her safe, but what happens when this little compromise turns into a whirlwind of attraction, hate, jealousy, and possible love? Can Taylor hold on to her only hope of sanity, or be whisked away in the world of werewolves, where her family, herself included, are a bunch of overgrown dogs? Taylor may seem shy on the outside, but dealing with a sarcastic, rude, arrogant mate has her standing up for herself and ultimately, facing her crazy consequences. Despite her situation, the confusing part is the possible attraction she has to Leo. And to think, it all started with two simple words..."I Do." THIS BOOK IS CURRENTLY BEING EDITED! If you are fine with reading it as is, go ahead! But I am currently editing it to remove multiple grammatical errors, as well as improving the story line and filling in some missing gaps that I failed to address the first time writing this.

From Ex-wife To Heiress by Philippa668

Betrayed. Broken. Gone. Laura thought she had it all-a loving husband, a loyal best friend, and a life she cherished. But everything shatters the night she walks in on her husband, Lorenzo, tangled in sheets with her best friend, Victoria. Heartbroken, she demands answers, but instead of remorse, Lorenzo coldly tosses divorce papers in her face. Her pleas fall on deaf ears, and with no choice left, she signs them and leaves. But Laura has one secret-a secret she takes with her as she disappears from his life. Five Years Later... Laura Roberts has risen from the ashes, now the powerful billionaire heiress to her father's empire. Her past feels like a distant memory-until a reporter's probing question pulls her back into the spotlight. "Miss Roberts, can you finally tell us what really happened with your husband five years ago?" Before she can respond, a familiar voice interrupts, dripping with confidence. "You will not ask my wife any further questions about me. I never stopped loving her," Lorenzo declares, stepping out of the shadows. Stunned, Laura spins around. How did he find her? "I'm not your wife!" she fires back, her voice steady. "Not yet, darling. But I've made arrangements. We're getting remarried... *today.*"
