- Nessa -
I'm used to Phoenix being my brother Finn's cocky best friend-the guy who always ruins my fun whenever I find someone interesting. But when I was drugged at a party, he was the one who found me and made sure I was safe. After that, something changed between us. Suddenly, we're spending more time together, and he's not as much of an arrogant jerk as I thought. The lines between annoyance and attraction are blurring, and it's confusing. Maybe he's not just Finn's best friend anymore.
- Phoenix -
I've had feelings for Nessa since the moment we met, but I buried them deep because of Finn. After I found her that night, unconscious, everything I'd pushed aside came rushing back. I tried to play it cool, but being around her now makes it harder to keep my distance. She's not just Finn's sister-she's Nessa, and my resolve is slipping. I'm not sure how long I can keep pretending I don't care.

He brushed his lips against my jaw, his dark hair falling over his brow. "Open your eyes," he commanded. "Look at me." I followed his orders and looked into the raven-black depths before me. I saw my entranced gaze reflected in his glaring one. "Tell me what you see." I kept on looking at him, searching for something, anything, that remained of the person he used to be. They say the eyes are the windows to the soul. But his eyes were so dark, so empty . . . "Nothing. I see nothing," I whispered. He smirked, his gaze still on me. He pulled away, leaving me feeling cold. "Exactly. You see nothing - that's because there's nothing there." ** How much can a person change in just three years?

Caught Between Hearts
They say every story has a beginning, a middle, and an end. But mine had two beginnings-two paths that twisted into a single, impossible knot. The first began with a notebook, a flash of gold glitter dropped in a crowded hallway, and a boy who looked like he owned the world. He made me feel wanted. He was thunder-an electric current that set every nerve ending humming. The second began with a single gold earring, the kind of thing you guard with your whole heart, and a boy who looked at me like he'd been waiting his whole life. He was a safe harbor, a steady calm in a world full of noise. I was caught in the middle. I never meant to lead them on, but the longer I stayed confused, the messier it got. Sooner or later, a choice would have to be made. And when it was, I wasn't sure my heart could survive being broken in two.

The Hollow Girl
Iris Flynn is a liar. She lies when she says she's fine. She lies when she says she doesn't remember that night. And she lies most of all when she says she doesn't miss Ronan Hayes. Four years ago, they were inseparable - best friends tangled in almosts and maybes. Until a party, a locked door, and a betrayal neither of them came back from. Now, Iris is a different girl. A girl who hides behind cherry-red hair and tattoos, who rules the bar at The Hollow and gives her heart to no one. Ronan was never supposed to be here. Not in New York. Not at NYU. Not walking back into her life like a ghost she's spent years trying to outrun. She wants to hate him. He refuses to leave. And somewhere between the rooftop parties, neon lights, and stolen moments that feel like falling, Iris realises the one thing more dangerous than forgiving Ronan... ...is wanting him again.
Beside
''Tell me how it feels,'' he whispers. "Good," I gasp, my entire body trembling. Deeper. Harder. Perfect. Like we've been doing this for years.

I don't think about what comes next -- him pulling his shirt on and leaving. I don't feel heartbroken when I imagine myself alone in here. It's casual, our intimacy. And it's too late to renegotiate. ***** When Fox hooks up with his new roommate at a masked club, he has no idea their fling is just the beginning. The woman he's living with is the same girl who shared candy with him under a playground slide. 𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙨 𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩 𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙨 𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙙𝙚𝙧 𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙨 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣 STANDALONE NOVEL *ANGSTY EMOTIONAL SLOW BURN *MEN YEARNING Copyright © 2024-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).
