Aspen Bender: aka the school shadow. She keeps her head low, keeps away from drama, and does her work.
Nessa Quinn: aka the best friend- is the complete opposite. She bathes in the attention given to her, is the center of drama, and barely passes. ...and somehow they fit like two puzzle pieces.
|| Starting senior year is always exciting. Same friends, same school, for one more year. For Aspen its another year of blending in. For Nessa its another year of gossip and fail attempts of getting her best friend to leave the shadows behind. Though when a new guy joins the senior population, no one thought anything of it. That is until Aspen finds him exiting the well-known entrance of the underground fighting arena - which arises an unpredictable relationship that may or may not work out.||

𝐄𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐓𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧
𝐍𝐨𝐫𝐚 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠 is the kind of girl who makes friends everywhere she goes. She loves flowers, romance novels, the color yellow, and probably gets way too excited over the little things. Always having a smile on her face, she sees the world in colour. 𝐊𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐓𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐬 is pretty much her complete opposite. He's covered in tattoos, spends his nights fighting underground, and has the kind of looks that make people stare. He's confident, stubborn, and not exactly known for being sweet. Except when it comes to Nora. She's his best friend's little sister, which makes her completely off-limits. He knows that. She knows that. So why does it feel like neither of them cares? The more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to pretend there's nothing between them. And Kaden might just be willing to break every rule to find out what happens when they stop pretending. ──────────────────── • adult contemporary romance • friends to lovers • brother's best friend BEST RANKING: #1 in Brother's best friend #2 in Sunshine #6 in Boxer #7 in Vacation #8 in Slowburn COPYRIGHT 2022©️ vixenelle - all rights reservedComplete
Beside
''Tell me how it feels,'' he says. "Good," I gasp, my entire body trembling. Deeper. Harder. Perfect. Like we've been doing this for years. His hand finds my jaw, fingers firm as he tilts my head up, making me look at him. And that's it. Waves of heat zip to my toes as my nails scrape down his back. I don't think about what comes next -- him pulling his shirt on and leaving. I don't feel heartbroken when I imagine myself alone in here. It's casual, our intimacy. And it's too late to renegotiate. ***** When Fox hooks up with his new roommate at a masked club, he has no idea their fling is just the beginning. The woman he's living with is the same girl who shared candy with him under a playground slide. 𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙨 𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩 𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙨 𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙙𝙚𝙧 𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙨 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣 STANDALONE NOVEL *ANGSTY EMOTIONAL SLOW BURN *MEN YEARNING Copyright © 2024-present Laurel Montaze (immoralLaurel).
