Sufferable Acceptance by adataylorr

I would never admit this to anyone for as long as I lived, and I was going to hell for thinking it, but Theo Romano was hot when he was angry. It wasn't until I finished my dramatic speech did I notice he was standing a few inches from me. I could smell his intoxicating cologne, and I had to hold back every bone in my body that told me to jump him. I'd really done it now. I had pissed off the underboss, and I wasn't even officially hired yet. ***** Amelia Monet had built an empire for herself. To be fair, there was never a shortage of jobs for an assassin. Leaving quickly from a job Amelia walked past a bar that caught her eye. If she had known how much her life would change after that night would she still have walked through those doors? She still couldn't answer that question. That night became the first time she met Theo Romano, heir to the Italian Mafia, and unfortunately for Amelia it wouldn't be the last. ***** This book is considered mature.

Not yet yours by Willowreader2473

Aurora Westwood is focused on one thing - her nursing degree at Oxford University. When she's paired with Theo, an arrogant psychology student, for a major group project, she's forced into a partnership she'd rather avoid. From their first tense encounter, the chemistry between them is undeniable, but not in a good way. As the semester unfolds, their interactions become a battle of wills - until a party, a stolen glance, and a chance encounter make Aurora realize that her feelings for Theo are more complicated than she ever imagined. Jealousy, frustration, and a slow burn tension heat up between them as they navigate school, their unexpected connection, and the thin line between love and hate. In a world where emotions are as volatile as the pressure to succeed, can Aurora and Theo find a way to work together without destroying each other first?

Meanwhile, Theo craves a love that will heal the scars of his past, desperately seeking the nurturing affection he never received from his mother.

Obsidian Whispers by VRiddle6

"𝐇𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐫. 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐡𝐢𝐦." Avena Caruso and Theo Nott arrive at Hogwarts with secrets carved into their skin and a past drenched in blood. Best friends to the world, something far more dangerous behind closed doors-a love that borders on obsession, tangled in dark magic and whispered Italian promises. But when Mattheo Riddle takes an interest in Avena, everything unravels. The lies. The possessiveness. The control. Theo doesn't share, and Avena doesn't break-until she does. Because there are some stories that don't end in freedom. Some stories end in fire.

For the Love of Alicia by RedRottenApple

Alicia Everette is 25, ambitious, and still hasn't had a boyfriend. Not for lack of curiosity, but because she's been far too busy climbing the career ladder. That is, until a champagne-fueled high school reunion and one too many shots with her best friend land her in the penthouse of none other than Theo Marche, the charming, ridiculously wealthy golden boy she barely noticed in high school. Waking up in luxury with a foggy memory is awkward enough. But Theo? He seems... invested. Suddenly, he's showing up everywhere, with that infuriating smile, that frustrating confidence, and a strange familiarity that makes Alicia wonder if she's forgetting more than just one night. What begins as confusion slowly unravels into a deeper mystery. A shared past Alicia never knew existed, and a love story Theo never forgot. Because sometimes, love remembers what we forget. ___________________________________________ Newbie writer If there is a plot hole, or anything wrong, then, it is what is it?

When Justice Meets Desire by 13_TheBlackDog

"Two academic rivals must unravel a corruption case while battling the undeniable chemistry between them." Ava, the confident and stunning blonde law student, is known for her intelligence and charisma that makes her a standout in the faculty. She's always been at the top of her class, excelling in academic competitions and being a social force. But there's one person who competes with her at every turn-Logan, a brooding and intense law student with exceptional skills and a sharp mind. The two are constant academic rivals, constantly competing for the top spot, and their rivalry has made them dislike each other from the start. However, when a high-profile corruption case surfaces, both Ava and Logan are forced to team up in order to solve it. The case involves uncovering corruption within the legal field, requiring them to dig into sensitive areas and connect various pieces of evidence. This new challenge pushes them to work closely together, forcing them to confront not only the case but also their own personal histories and secrets. Logan, who has been burned by betrayal in the past, keeps his walls high and remains distant from others, especially Ava, who he sees as someone who plays the social game too well. On the other hand, Ava struggles to see Logan as more than just a grumpy, distant competitor who keeps everyone at arm's length. But as they collaborate on the case, Ava begins to uncover Logan's hidden vulnerabilities, and Logan starts to see the real, sincere side of Ava that isn't just about winning or looking good. As the case intensifies, they must decide whether to stay true to their personal beliefs and fight for justice or let their growing feelings for each other undermine everything they've worked for. Their rivalry shifts into something far more complicated-an undeniable attraction that neither of them can easily ignore.

Cold hands warm heart. by midnightveil_xx

When I transferred to Evergreen High, romance was the last thing on my mind. I came for a fresh start - new classes, new people, a clean slate. But the universe had other plans... and his name is Theo Hart. He's the school's golden boy - star of the hockey team, arrogant, loud, and completely infuriating. And thanks to a housing mix-up, he's also my new dormmate. We clash over everything. He leaves his gear everywhere, I correct his grammar. He calls me "Fletcher," I call him a jerk. But somewhere between the late-night arguments and the way his voice drops when he says my name... things start to change. I'm supposed to hate him. I want to hate him. But when he's close - really close - it's hard to remember why. Because maybe the boy with cold hands and a bad attitude... has the warmest heart I've ever known.

When Ivy's world comes crashing into Theo's, they'll have to decide: fight for each other - or let the world tear them apart. Enemies to lovers. Slow burn. Underground fights. Explicit tension. No saving - only surviving together. "Some monsters don't need fixing. They just need someone strong enough to stay."
