Joe never believed in fate-only in hard work, ambition, and the weight of expectations he never asked for. But when Halaena walks into his life, with her sharp wit and quiet strength, she stirs something in him he thought long buried.

Halaena isn't looking for love, least of all with a man like Joe-charming yet distant, burdened by a world she doesn't belong to. But there's something about him, something unspoken, that keeps pulling her in.

Between the hum of city lights and the ghosts of their pasts, they find themselves standing at the edge of something undeniable. But love is never simple. And when duty, distance, and the weight of unspoken truths threaten to pull them apart, they'll have to decide-is love enough to rewrite the story they thought they knew?All Rights Reserved

Crimson Desires by evy_rxse

"You think you've got me all figured out, don't you?" I say, my tone sharp as I glare up at him. Archer's lips curve into a faint smirk. "I don't need to figure you out. I already know your type." "Oh, do you?" I step closer, challenging him. "Enlighten me." His eyes darken as he leans down, his voice husky. "Reckless. Self-destructive. You'd run into flames just to prove you don't burn." "And you're the hero who thinks he can save me?" I shoot back, fists clenching. "No," he says evenly, his gaze boring into mine. "I'm the one who'll let you burn." *** When you've hit rock bottom, there's nowhere to go but up...or so they say. For Erin Carter, rock bottom looks like a past she can't escape and a future that seems impossible. Pulled from her prison sentence by a government agency, Erin's given the chance to prove she's more than her rocky past. But trust doesn't come easy, and neither does redemption- especially when her sharp tongue and fiery temper get her into trouble at every turn. For Archer Hayes, failure isn't an option. As one of the agency's top operatives, his life revolves around order and precision- two things that go out the window when Erin is thrown into his world. With a shared history he'd rather forget and a mission that could destroy them both, Archer is forced to confront the one thing he can't control: her.

All Yours by Rosie4118

Marisa is a mid-sized young woman who aspires to own her own company. After college, however, she struggles to find a job in her chosen field straight away. Eventually, she finds a job at a company she despises working at. After a year of working at this company, she meets Jason, the new guy. Jason surprisingly doesn't fall for Ashley, a young gorgeous woman who practically walks the entire office, including the CEO, like a dog. Jason and Marisa become close, and Jason teaches Marisa how beautiful and amazing she is, while also trying to control his overwhelming strong feelings that began to steadily grow from the moment he laid eyes on her. *Descriptions of the main characters (Jason and Marisa) are extremely vague (as vague as could possibly work with the story) so readers can put their own faces, race, eye color, etc to their characters based on their preferences. If you are a reader that needs a description of a character to envision the character, this story may not be for you. ENJOY!*

Zaiarhys is a woman that is much more physically and emotionally strong than any other man combined Many-many people who had already known her through the news, the victims she had saved and some who just heard of her existence believed that the reason of her unapproachable, distinct, and tough as hell exterior was all because she was from a big family full of military, marine and from every different law enforcement agencies.

Which she didn't believe and was hell bent on proving them wrong by finding Rafa herself She was angry, loss, but mostly angry Then her father had a mission proposal which she could not simply ignore Hope. A differenf kind of hope that she never felt before lit up her darkened soul.
