I Might Need You
I swipe away a piece of hair falling in front of her face. I watch as she sleeps softly. She is all that matters to me now. She is every beat. Every breath. Every dream. Everything. You normally have those stories, where the good girl falls in love with the bad boy. He hurts her and breaks her heart multiple times. This is the complete opposite. Nova Dixon isn't someone to be friends with, and definitely not one to fall in love with. Dustin Clark breaks those rules, and decides that Nova is his new drug, his addiction. No matter how hard he tries to stay away, it isn't possible. He wants her. Needs her even. But she cant give him what he wants. **I know there seems to be a lot of chapters, but most of my chapters are 1000-2000 words. Only a few of them have more** 200,000-220,000 word countComplete

She hunts daily, but sometimes even that isn't enough. And the new year, she never imagined for it to be like this. She has to participate in the 'Games' well at least that's what the Capital calls it. Everyone else calles it indesisive torture. Ever since Nova's father almost died in the mine bombing when she was 11 he has been in a wheel chair, he lost his leg, and seriously injured his arm, he has burns across his chest, back, and legs. Since then Nova's been the one getting the food from hunting. She along with the rest of her family have never felt full so when she volunteers for her younger sister everything changes. She finds love she never knew she could have, she finally knows just how cruel everyone in the Capital is. And all of these 'Games' happened because of consequences by rebelling 74 years ago.

The Lycan's Flame
Her love is a weapon. It's killed before. And this time, she's sworn it won't happen again. Everyone at Blackthorn University thinks Kara is just another human girl juggling midterms, frat parties, and overpriced lattes. No one suspects the truth: that she's a Phoenix shifter, hiding in plain sight in a world ruled by werewolves and lycans. Even her closest friends don't know the fire simmering beneath her skin. But Kara isn't just hiding from them, she's hiding from fate. From the one thing she dreads more than anything else: her mate. She's done letting her love be a death sentence. She won't survive another loss. The scars she bears run deeper than flesh. So when Ryker, the dangerously magnetic lycan General, realizes Kara is his fated mate, she does exactly what she swore she would. She pushes him away. Again. And again. And again. But lycans don't walk away from their mates. And Ryker? He's dominant, possessive, and utterly relentless. He's a storm she can't outrun, a flame that won't go out. And every heated glance, every stolen moment, threatens to shatter the walls she's spent years building. As secrets ignite and her past begins to unravel, Kara must face the truth: Can she let herself love again, knowing it could destroy them both? Or will her lies-and the deadly curse entwined with her love-be the very thing that dooms them forever?Complete

Surrender Or Drown {The Siren and The Fenrir Trilogy Book I}
"Bella, you can't keep doing this to me. I can be real fucking patient, or I can be really fucking unkind." He grabbed her hips and skimmed his fingers down the chunk of her outer thighs. "I'm sorry, but I didn't ask for him to kiss me. And I told you, you and I-we're over." He placed his hand over her mouth. He let his tears stream down his nose, his lips quivered with the words she'd just used to curse him. "I don't like it." He let out through his teeth, his glasses fell low on his nose and she could tell he was in agony. "I'm sorry." She declared before pulling him in for an embrace. Her arms wrapped around his neck and his hands drove up and into her hair, guiding her face to look up. His mouth parted over hers, she opened her lips and kissed him slowly, enchantingly. Brandon was sure she wished him to die. As she swallowed his breath, and fed him her own-she gave him no gaps to breathe. Almost as if his siren had come up from her watery throne just to drag him back under. He started pounding his fists against the wall behind her, careful not to hurt her in any way. His mouth moved over hers like he had no choice but to kiss her back. He laid no hand to her body, because he knew in that moment-he'd go too far. He didn't want to hurt her. But he did want to burrow into her body and command her soul. She was the sole reason for his jealousy, the only person who held the switch to all of his desires. Bella had been born to be the woman who would subdue the demons inside his soul. She was created for him. He felt it long before he accepted it. But now-he couldn't bear the consequences of denying the gift in which God was giving him in her. His redemption was a direct result of having her in his life. Both cursed and blessed-Brandon couldn't afford to lose her anymore. She was his. Forever. She chased him-so in full circle. Perhaps it was his turn now. "Bella... say you'll be mine. Please."Complete
