Jade Blackwood has sworn off bad boys-especially Dexter Hawthorne, the notorious playboy she's had enough of. He's the last person she'd ever fall for, and she's sure of it. But when a risky bet pulls them into a fake dating arrangement, Dexter makes a bold promise: she won't fall for him. It's just a game, right?

What starts as a playful charade quickly becomes more complicated as the lines between pretending and reality blur. Jade finds herself questioning everything she thought she knew about Dexter, and worst of all, about herself. Her carefully built walls begin to crack, and memories of her past resurface, threatening to overwhelm her. With emotions running high and old wounds reopening, Jade is forced to confront the feelings she's tried so hard to bury.

Will she stick to her vow and keep her heart protected, or will she take a chance on the one guy she swore she'd never trust? In this tangled web of lies, secrets, and undeniable chemistry, Jade must decide whether to walk away or risk everything for the person she never thought she'd fall for.

alone, together by tanzwrites

Rowan Cassidy has a plan: survive senior year, get the scholarship, and don't fall apart. He doesn't have time for distractions - especially not Killian Vale, his infuriatingly beautiful neighbour who's made a career out of ruining his life one sarcastic remark at a time. They've "hated" each other for years. Allegedly. On paper. Except it's the kind of hate that pauses in the air between them. That stares too long. That sounds a hell of a lot like something else when no one's looking. Killian is chaos in a leather jacket. Rowan is order in calloused palms and colour-coded binders. They're opposites, always have been - but when a series of late nights, care-filled actions, and too-close-to-honest arguments start to peel back their seemingly failing defence mechanism, Rowan's perfectly managed world starts to spiral. And maybe the person he's spent years fighting is the only one who actually sees him. Sharp-tongued, slow-burning, and emotionally messy - this is not your typical love story. It's worse. It's theirs. A classic, almost clichéd frenemies-to-lovers tale; one gloriously inconvenient love story.

Black Veil by suryaisis111

Raine Alder, a skilled assassin with no past, is a man who kills without hesitation. Cold, precise, and haunted by shadows, he takes on a mission to eliminate a dangerous cult leader. But when he infiltrates the organization, he meets Lucian Graves-the enigmatic, bloodstained ruler of the cult known as Black Veil. Lucian isn't just another target. He is terrifyingly beautiful, dangerously intelligent, and utterly obsessed with Raine from the moment he lays eyes on him. Instead of killing him, Lucian decides to claim him. Trapped in a mansion filled with horrors-where the walls bleed secrets and the servants whisper prayers to something far worse than gods-Raine finds himself tangled in a deadly game of power, lust, and madness. He should hate Lucian. He should kill him. But he doesn't. Lucian's darkness calls to him. His touch is both punishment and pleasure. His love is violent, possessive, and absolute. As enemies hunt them and the cult descends into chaos, Raine and Lucian must fight for survival. In the end, Raine will have to choose: escape Lucian's grasp or fall into his abyss forever. And Raine has never been one to run.

Falling for the bad boy|| Glen Powell by lcvlyimagines

Brooke Harper came to college with one plan: keep her head down, get straight A's, and avoid drama like the plague. She's shy, smart, and totally uninterested in boys-especially ones like Glen Powell, the university's ultimate heartthrob and bad boy who's used to getting everything he wants. But when Glen sets his sights on Brooke, the rules start to change. He's cocky. She's unimpressed. He flirts. She shuts him down. But no matter how hard she tries to push him away, Glen keeps showing up-with charm, persistence, and a little more heart than she expected. With jealous cheerleaders, protective best friends, awkward study sessions, and one too many unexpected run-ins... Brooke might be falling for the one person she swore she'd never even speak to. And she's not sure whether that's the best-or worst-mistake she's ever made.

Beneath the Bridge by siriusstarsgirl

She's fighting to survive. He's given up on caring. But when their worlds collide, neither of them will ever be the same. Aria Delaney has mastered the art of pretending. Pretending her home isn't crumbling under the weight of debt, neglect, and anger. Pretending the bruises on her heart don't exist. By day, she's the straight-A scholarship girl who keeps her head down and her books close. By night, she escapes to a secret bridge in the woods-her only real safe haven. Jace Callahan is everything she hates: wealthy, reckless, and untouchable. Tattooed, motorcycle-riding heartbreaker of Linwood Academy. Everyone either wants him or wants to be him. But Aria only remembers the boy who slammed a door in her face after mocking her father's firing-then dragged her name through the mud on her first day at her new school. They're enemies, plain and simple. Until forced proximity, simmering tension, and late-night run-ins start to blur the line between hate and something more dangerous. Because beneath the smirks and insults, both of them are hiding secrets. And when broken meets broken beneath the bridge... Something unbreakable might just form.
