Harlow Gails. Poor, but smart. Independent, but needy. Small, but feisty. The recipe for calculated fun and recklessness.
Harlow, 19, lives with her drunk, negligent father who makes her life a living hell after her mother passes. One night, the two get into a squabble that sends Harlow packing and out of the door with the help of her step-mother. For 5 days, Harlow attempts to survive the streets like a wild, confused and helpless coyote. After getting mobbed, harassed and nearly kidnapped, Harlow crashes out on a pile of sticks in the woods.
Harlow wakes up the next morning-greeted by a very familiar face. The face of the man who took her in at 13. The man who had an agreement with her dad. The man with the mute son that hates her guts. Handsome and wealthy Marleigh Kovek. But that isn't the face she needs to worry about seeing. She needs to worry about Marleigh's son-her once bestest friend by arrangement, Kadrien Kovek. And now that Harlow has no where to go, she has no option but to accept the stay in the Guest bedroom that Marleigh has offered her. One thing is for sure, Kadrien promises her that he'll make her life a living hell for as long as she stays.

Rose ignores him and goes outside while the others follow behind her. "Where are you going?"

Lilah
She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)Complete

The Art of Griffin
I look at his arms tense as he drags the needle over his client, his tattooed bicep bulges and a vein on his forehead becomes prominent as he focuses on the design. It is a beautiful sight, his green eyes move away for the clients body and raise to meet mine. "Daze, you need to stop looking at me like that" I shake my head to clear my thoughts as I feel my cheeks heating up. "Like what?" my voice sounds breathless. A smirk appears on his face "Like you want me to come over and take you now, as much as I would love to I'm a little bit busy". I cough in shock and turn around to cover up my embarrassment as I hear him laughing behind me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ After the loss of her parents, Daisy's best friend Sophies parents taking her in and it's time for her and Soph to make their way to college.

Ink and silver
Eliana Ruiz has never fit in - not with her bold friend group, not in crowded rooms, and definitely not in tattoo shops. Soft-spoken and shy, she's used to being the quiet one in the background, the girl everyone talks over. But when her best friend Megan drags her to her brother's tattoo shop for matching ink, everything changes. Alex Torres is rough around the edges - a tattoo artist with a short temper, a bad attitude, and no interest in love. He doesn't do sweet. He doesn't do gentle. But when he sees Eliana being pushed around by her so-called friends, something in him snaps. What starts as a tense, unexpected moment - a piercing, a few sharp words, a stare that lasts too long - turns into something neither of them can ignore. She's sunshine trying to survive the storm, and he's the storm that can't stop watching her glow. But Alex has walls higher than the ink on his skin, and Eliana's heart has never been brave enough to reach past them.
