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." 

If you're curious to know what happened between Lisa Davis and Lugard Miller, continue reading till you find out.(CC) Attrib. NonComm. ShareAlike

Chasing A Starlight by juicyfruitsx0

!!!PAPERBACKS LIVE ON AMAZON!!! After her father's passing, Soleil moved to the fancy house in the suburbs that he left her. She called it the perfect parting gift. With a fully paid for house and less bills on her shoulders, it'd be easier to focus on her career. What she did not expect to come with the house was the grumpy man who lived next door. After countless failed attempts to talk to him, Soleil figured it was best to stay on her side of the yard. But when a storm strikes, the last place Soleil thought she'd seek shelter was at his place. The last person she thought would be so thoughtful and tender towards her was him. He's a good catholic. He swears to behave. A line has been blurred, one that was never truly there. And temptation would be the death of him, and his well-mannered values. Even if temptation was a young woman with legs for days.

The Multiples by bunnybluewriter

At lightning speed I threw open the covers of the bed , checking for any trace of missing clothing ; Every ounce of my fiber, of my being was yelling at me to get out of here ,to run as fast as I could and never look back. I guess in a way , it serves me right for being here again. I was weak. I was too weak to even stand. Watching all the eyes in the room fall on me and my shaking hand , I almost hesitated. But I didn't think. And that's the problem. **** Olivia Davis was no ordinary preppy teenage girl living off of her father's fame and fortune. Living from one shopping spree to the next , riding the best and newest car. Infact , she was the exact opposite of who her father wanted as the princess of his multi billionaire company. She was loud . Cold. And had an attitude that would put her grandmother to shame . She was nothing anyone expected from someone who graduated high school with honours . So what if her graduation gift was the news that she has a fiancé ? Not one . But TWO ! None of which she had a say in what so ever . But they say that two is better than one right? *started 18 June 2019* *finished 26 March 2020* *edited 9 April 2020*

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.

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. The finished product will be up soon! If you still would like to read this book, go ahead but you have been warned!
