"Bribe. Threaten. Buy out. You couldn't be more Hawthorne, darling, if you tried."

Grayson Hawthorne has been a part of Meridith Friar's life for as long as he can remember. And for just as long, she's loved him, even if he never knew. But then she left, and everything changed.
Now she's back, and Grayson can't ignore the way her absence left a hole in his life. She's not the same girl who walked away, and he's not the same boy she left behind. But some things never really change, and neither of them can deny that pull between them. Maybe this time, it's their turn.

The Inheritances Game (Jameson Hawthorne)
⚠️Bad writing ahead⚠️ Catalina Grace Powell is best friends with the Hawthorne family but she's the closest to Jameson Hawthorne. She has lived with them forever, what happens when a random girl inherits a bunch of money from the one and only Tobias Hawthorne? I'm not good at summaries hopefully the book is better than this summary. It is a friend to Lover trope but like Inheritance Game!! I don't see many Jameson stories and yes I totally ship Avery with him but I want some stories with the character falling in love. So here it is!!! Also, Avery will either date Grayson or just be single we'll see where it goes. Also very staggered uploads I upload random snippets at a time for this book because I really need to think about it before I upload how to incorporate Catalina into this complex storyline.Complete

From the moment I met him, I felt the pull-an undeniable force telling me to stay away, yet drawing me in all the same. He was the guy everyone wanted, the one every girl longed for and every boy envied. But to him, I was different. I was a challenge. The broken girl who swore she'd never let anyone in. The boy who never believed in love. Somehow, through the chaos of my life, he stayed. But after what happened, nothing will ever be the same. I should have walked away while I had the chance-now, I'll spend every second regretting that I didn't.Complete

The Legacy That Chose Her - The Inheritance Games
She wasn't born a Hawthorne. But she might be the one to destroy them. When Zoe receives a cryptic invitation to spend the summer at the infamous Hawthorne House, she thinks it's a mistake. She's no heiress. No secret daughter. Just a girl with more questions than answers and a past that doesn't quite add up. But the second she walks through the door, the game begins. The brothers-the golden, the wild, the charming, and the cold-look at her like she's a threat. Or a challenge. Maybe both. And when Zoe uncovers a buried will that was never meant to surface, she realizes she wasn't invited by accident. There are secrets buried beneath the estate. And one of them is her.Complete![FEARLESS \\ Grayson Hawthorne [1]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/317292896-256-k437868.jpg)
FEARLESS \\ Grayson Hawthorne [1]
"With you I'd dance in a storm, in my best dress. Fearless" I told him. Grayson Davenport Hawthorne only stared at me with his piercing, grey eyes. "You can take my hand and drag me head first, because with you I'd dance in a storm. Fearless" He said back to me. _______________________________________ COMPLETELY EDITED Grayson Hawthorne x OC Book one of three The Inheritance Games belongs to Jennifer Lynn Barnes, except for my original characters and storylines.

"What about Kylie?" I asked as he spun me. "What about her?" "What she apart of this tradition as well?" "Yes, she was, my grandfather always considered her as one of our own, I guess that's why he left her the foundation, she was the granddaughter he never had." Kylie Katerina Westwood, born in London became the constant in Grayson Hawthorne's life. He knew her better than he knew himself, together throughout high school and got engaged by the time they turned 20. Avery Kylie Grambs became a wrench in the perfect life they had planned out, a nobody who stole everything from the heir apparent and his fiancée. "But I also know the Hawthorne family. The boys would never harm a woman, and the women will come for you in the courtroom, no axes involved and that includes Kylie."

It's funny how just last night we were watching the stupid stars. I wish I could take them all away and keep the sky pitch black. That asshole doesn't deserve to see stars anymore, he doesn't deserve anything. I hated Grayson Hawthorne, absolutely hated him. - "What are you doing here?" Grayson directed the question at me, I think he only expected Avery. "Nunya." I prayed he would fall for the joke. "Nunya?" he raised a quizzical brow. "Nunya business." I snickered, so did Avery and Jameson. --- "So scratch my name on your arm with a fountain pen. This means you really love me." -rusholme ruffians; the smiths HIGHEST RANKS: #1 in theinheritancegames #1 in xanderhawthorne #1 in nash #1 in graysonhawthorne #2 in graysonComplete
