25 parts Complete Mature
Final book of the Jackson Series! Faye West is struggling to find friendship in college when Noah Jackson shows up, introducing himself as her new "roomie" and potentially much more. Sparks fly and things heat up between the pair as you would expect in close quarters before things for Faye take a turn for the worst. With pressure mounting from her father and a desperate need to please she finds herself caught in a war. Say yes to love or let it go? But maybe she won't have to make that decision on her own. Because once a Jackson boy falls in love he falls fast and the same goes for Noah. He only has one semester but can he show Faye what really matters in life before it's too late? Or is he going to lose her to someone else? Only time will tell. *** "Do you think I should give Kane a chance?" Noah looks down at me and his smile softens. "No." "You don't approve?" I grin as we get to our floor and start walking down the hall. "He's not right for you." "Really? You happen to know who the perfect man is for me?" I snort as I walk backwards while facing him. He grabs my hand and tugs me towards him making me yelp as I crash into him. "Noah!" For a moment he just stares at me before tucking my hair behind my ear with a gentle smile. My poor heart races a mile a minute because I don't think he realizes that he's still holding my hand and has it placed against his chest. I realize though. I notice. Just like I notice everything he does to me and how he makes me feel like I'm on cloud nine from a single touch. "You deserve the best. Not idiots like Kane." He rolls his eyes and we both smile at each other. "You deserve perfection Faye...because from what I've seen you are the epitome of that." I swoon. You're perfection to me too Noah. Can I have you?

This is going downhill very fast. Jack turns to me. "Scar, we need to talk," he says lowly. Then loud enough for Levi to hear, "So can you please get this kid to leave." "Hey, you don't get to come in here and start ordering her around," Levi says harshly. "You don't control her." "And you think that you do?" Jack spits. ♔ When Scarlett moved off to college, she hoped to start anew and find her way in this world alone. Two problems.

(Re-Written. New adventures, new characters, new plots and new secrets to explore.) «"Hmm, I'm craving... Thai" I mumble to myself as I look through their menu. "Well I'm craving... you" I suddenly hear Liam whisper in my ear from behind. I drop the menu on the table from shock. I feel his breath on my neck and it makes shivers run down my body. My breathing becomes heavy. "Yeah, well you're not getting me" I tell him sassily however my voice comes out breathless. He chuckles lowly and moves closer to me. His breath becomes more stronger and the cold air becomes more prominent. His hand trails up from my wrist up my arm. His fingers goes under my sleeves caressing every inch of my skin. I close my eyes as I let the sensation overwhelm me. Then, out of nowhere, I feel his other hand creep under my shirt. His hand reaches my hip and he massages it. I feel him lowering his face closer to my ear. "I think I already am" is all he replies back with and he kisses my ear. I let out a shaky breath.» ♧︎ Blythe Slater has faced a lot the past two years.

Madison hides her true feelings deep down inside of her. One night is all it takes for Mason to take Madison's virginity and create a wild, toxic, and addicting romance between the two of them. What brought her to him? Is it because Mason is broken, and Madison believes she has to fix everyone? Is it because not only did he take her virginity, but he made her feel what a true kiss feels like? Or is it because she's become addicted to the arousing feelings and pleasure he can give her? These two are no good for each other but can't stay away. They are magnets in this universe, attracted from thousands of miles away no matter what happens.
