Elara Hart has always found comfort in the quiet corners of her library, surrounded by stories that never let her down. Shy, bookish, and still carrying the scars of a childhood spent in the system, she prefers fictional worlds to unpredictable people-until a brooding stranger storms into her peaceful haven and asks for The Art of War.

Kade Walker is strength, silence, and secrets. As the head of an elite special forces team, he's used to danger, control, and keeping people at arm's length. But the soft-spoken librarian with hot chocolate in her hands and hope in her eyes chips away at his walls with every awkward smile.

Their connection begins in stolen glances and slow conversations, growing deeper through moments of vulnerability, quiet dinners, and shared fears. But Kade's world is dangerous, and when it comes crashing into Elara's, he'll have to choose between protecting her from it-and letting her in completely.

With therapy, healing, and a love neither of them saw coming, Elara and Kade must learn what it means to build a life together-one chapter at a time.

A slow-burn, opposites-attract romance filled with tender moments, deep scars, and a love story that proves even the quietest hearts can love the loudest.

Olivia Grace has always found comfort in the quiet. At eighteen, the library is her refuge, a world of soft pages and steady rhythms that keep the grief of losing her parents-and the sting of failed romances-at bay. Shy, guarded, and still untouched in more ways than one, she's spent years protecting herself from a world that asks too much too fast. With her older brother finally off to chase his dream of becoming an Army Ranger, Olivia is determined to start fresh in the fall-new college, new chapter, maybe even a new Olivia. But some shadows don't leave so easily. Liam Donovan, her brother's best friend and the boy who was never supposed to notice her, has quietly stepped into Kyle's place-dropping by unannounced, fixing things she didn't ask him to, looking at her like he sees far more than he should. He's two years older, rough where she's soft, dangerous in ways she can't quite name. And he's the one man she should never want. When a party ends in disaster and a call for help leads Liam straight to her, everything shifts. The tension between them snaps. Protective instincts give way to something possessive. And Olivia is no longer the quiet girl hiding behind her books-she's the one Liam can't stay away from. What begins as a slow burn ignites into something deeper, darker, and far more consuming than either of them expected. She's spent her life avoiding messy emotions. Now she's tangled in the most forbidden one of all.

Emma is his first real female friend since middle school, and the warmth of her smile lingers in his thoughts far longer than he'd like to admit. He tells himself it's just friendship, but can it really be that simple? As they navigate their growing bond, secrets are shared, misunderstandings arise, and moments of unexpected closeness leave them both questioning if they're just friends or something more. Will Emma and Ryan have the courage to face their feelings, or will they let their unspoken emotions drift away like the last snow of winter? Get ready for a heartwarming, slow-burn romance filled with cozy moments, emotional twists, and the kind of love story that feels like home.

[actively editing] With her nose in books and his brawn getting him nowhere on or off the ice, they find themselves drawn together, sharing their baggage and learning what it might mean for each of them to love again. Jake Bryers is no stranger to the pressures of being a professional hockey player. It's something that he's dealt with consistently for the past fifteen years. Throughout his career, he's experienced it all-the electric thrill of winning divisions and conference titles, and even making it to the Stanley Cup Finals on more than one occasion. His dream was always to skate the cup at least once, but as he enters the late stage of his long, tumultuous career, he finds himself struggling to perform like he once had as a younger, inspired player. Harper Clark has been proficient at one thing throughout her life-constantly moving forward without really going anywhere. After having moved to the Big Apple to pursue a better life outside of the dangerous one she found herself leading in the Midwest, she finds herself stagnating after getting her degree from Columbia. She quietly enjoys her job at the public library, treading water while the undeniable feeling of discontent grows stronger within her. It's nothing short of fate when Jake and Harper happen to cross paths at the library, and though their lives couldn't be any more different, they find themselves inexplicably drawn to one another as they try to navigate mending each other's wounded hearts.

He leaned forward so his hot breath was fanning against my ear, his erection pressing right onto my covered ass cheek. "But you need to be quiet, sweetheart. Unless you want everyone in the library to know that you're fucking its owner. I don't think you would appreciate a downfall in your good girl reputation, now would you?" Before I could even register his words in my head, he had ripped my underwear apart and shoved two of his calloused fingers in me. ══════✿✿✿══════ After her parents abandoned her and her siblings 4 years ago, Meli Rose had no time for relationships or hook ups.

Colton's Miracle ✔️ (Moved To Inkitt) ni fanoshkaflippo
7 parte Kumpleto Mature
Officially a Wattpad Creator! This book is my lucky charm. Colton has grown up knowing nothing but anger, hatred, and pain. His past doesn't allow him to enjoy life like others do. Instead, he paints a glare on his face that scares most people away. And then suddenly, a petite little red head with freckles and a radiant smile shoves her way into his life, changing every concept he thought he knew and breaks every rule he thought he needed. With every encounter, the ice around Colton's heart melts until his heart is free to beat as loudly as it can, just for Lily. With a past even darker than Colton's, Lillian chooses her armor to be a smile. She has so many reasons to succumb to the darkness that fills her once innocent heart, but she focuses on enjoying the new life she just started. Being the new girl means she's free to pretend that she's just like everyone else, normal. And when she meets the rude and grumpy Colton, she can't help but notice how alike they actually are. Slowly, the two broken souls begin to help each other heal, and together, they start to learn what it's like to be loved, unaware that the ghosts of the past are still hovering in the shadows. **Topics mentioned in this story could be triggering, such as: Physical Abuse, and Sexual Harrassment. **There will be mature content (Explicit Scenes and Swearing). **All photos used are not mine and are found for public use. ** This is a work of fiction.
