Synopsis:
Ava Sinclair and Tristan Mercer were inseparable as children-two lost souls who found solace in each other's broken homes and whispered secrets. They promised to be each other's safe haven, to never let the world break them. But promises mean nothing when betrayal cuts deeper than love.

At eighteen, Tristan shattered Ava's world, turning his back on her when she needed him most. He left her with nothing but scars and a heart full of hate. Now, ten years later, he's back, more ruthless than ever-a man shaped by violence and power, the heir to a criminal empire that rules the city from the shadows. And Ava? She's the only one standing in his way.

She's not the fragile girl he abandoned-she's built walls no one can break. But Tristan doesn't knock; he destroys. He wants her submission, her surrender, and he won't stop until she either bows to him... or burns with him.

Their past is a battlefield of pain and betrayal, their present a war of lust and vengeance. But in the ashes of what they once were, something darker, more dangerous, ignites. Hate was supposed to be the end of them, yet it might just be the beginning.

Warning: Ruin Me Softly is an extreme dark romance that explores themes of obsession, power, and moral ambiguity. Reader discretion is strongly advised.

Secrets and Sin by madsssbarron
1 part Ongoing Mature
Ruth Laurier didn't move to New York City to chase her wildest hopes and dreams like most people do. Instead, she moved to try and escape the shadows of her past. After a brutal attack that left her only breaths away from death, she had no choice but to leave everything she has ever known behind- her friends, family, and the town she grew up in. So she assumes a new identity as Bailey Rivers and focuses on her studies and lying low in the city that never sleeps. Her plans to keep a low profile are derailed quickly when she meets Xander Matthews- a cocky, infuriating, and undeniably attractive bad boy who seems too interested in finding out what's behind her cold, guarded demeanor. Although Ruth loathes him, she cannot help but be drawn to the inexplicable intensity in his eyes. But trusting people is not an option for her. Not when the killer she's running from is still out there. But despite every nerve ending in her body telling her to keep him at an arm's length away, she can't ignore the connection she feels every time he pushes against the walls she's so carefully built. As their interactions become more fervent, she struggles to deny their fiery chemistry which makes her mind spiral with questions. Can her heart learn to find refuge in him? And if so, will he still want her when he unveils the dark secrets she's been hiding? Or will it become too dangerous for the both of them? That's a risk she doesn't want to take. But when the lies start to unravel, Ruth must make a choice: keep running, or finally confront the past that has been holding her hostage.

Caitlyn Kiramman has always lived life on the polished side of the bridge-elite education, relentless expectations, and a future mapped out by her influential family. Her days are consumed by perfect grades, polished appearances, and the ever-present shadow of what it means to be a Kiramman. The last thing she needs is someone like Vi: brash, unpredictable, and from the wrong side of Piltover's divide. Vi's life is chaos in motion. Between fighting to protect her sister from the dangers of Zaun and dealing with Piltover's patronising attempts to "save" kids like her, she has no time for Caitlyn's cold stares or her condescending privilege. Except avoiding Caitlyn seems impossible, and no matter how much Vi claims to despise her, the friction between them only grows hotter with every encounter. As their paths intertwine in ways neither expected, Caitlyn and Vi are forced to confront the cracks in their city-and themselves. But in a world built to keep them apart, trust comes slowly, and old wounds cut deep. With political tensions mounting and familial expectations threatening to tear them in opposite directions, their connection feels as fragile as the bridge that separates Piltover from Zaun. Enemies by circumstance, drawn together by something they can't name, Caitlyn and Vi must decide: Will they let the world pull them apart, or will they risk everything for the chance to rewrite their story? *messed around with people's ages*
