Complete! Joshua Manfred is untouchable. He turns down every confession of love (or lust) and puts a quick stop to every fight, earning him the nickname Peacemaker. He is calm, cool, and always in control. I, on the other hand, am a mess. People think I'm smart because I'm quiet and I read, a lot. But I am disorganized, always hungry, and I have almost no friends, mostly because I would rather read than talk to people. I am the last person someone like Joshua would think about. Enter the group project. Most dreaded of all assignments. Will my heart survive a week working with the most wanted guy in school? Probably not, but it could be worse. When a suave stranger comes to whisk me off my feet in decedent romance, things get worse and Joshua is NOT calm or cool about it. Content warning: Cussing, school fights (non-graphic), steamy romance (again, non-graphic)

WATTYS 2023 SHORTLIST Sarah Kennedy's life has fallen to pieces. Her family is broken, she's growing apart from her only friend, and it's been a while since she's stopped dreaming about anything better. She embarks on a trip to Latin America, joining a retreat she hopes will mend her dwindling friendship and escape her miserable day-to-day life. Bad turns to worse, and her hopes are shattered when she is kidnapped by a cartel. While her life is miraculously spared, she's kept captive by a daunting and narcissistic drug lord, Pablo. As his obsession with her grows, so do his favors and promises. Sarah soon finds herself in a gilded cage, living a life more lavish than anything she's ever imagined. But all that glitters isn't gold, and this luxury has a price. If Sarah wants to escape the violent, treacherous, and cocaine-fueled world of cartels, she'll have to fight the demons that keep her captive, as well as the monsters in her head, armed with nothing but a dry sense of humor and a fragile strength. But as she and Pablo both know- it's a long journey home when you don't have any home to go to. _____________________ DTOD is marked as mature for strong language, drug use, violence (and also dark humor) and the occasional steam/smut.
