The Badboys' Good Lips by Macbeth-845

To crave safety was one thing. To sleep with a monster to get it? That was something else entirely. ____________________ The bar. Her best friend. The need to forget her ex. That's all Maebelle Taylor was signing up for one Thursday night in college. The icing on the cake was the tall and handsome one-night-stand she managed to fall into bed with, and she was able to achieve what she set out to do: Forget. However, things don't go as planned when said one-night-stand saunters back into her life. Not only is he as handsome as he was during their night of fun, but he seems to be a completely different person than Maebelle remembers. He's dangerous, brooding, vicious, and far from the man she thought she had first met. And he wants absolutely nothing more to do with her. What seems like fate is what tosses them together. What seems like karma is what can't keep them apart. Mr. tall and handsome lives a life far from the safe haven Mae so desperately craves to have, but after stumbling upon something she shouldn't have seen? Mr. tall and handsome isn't so keen to let her go. ____________________ t r o p e s: Grumpy x sunshine Mature themes Criminal/Gang-related content ____________________ D I S C L A I M E R: this story has been re-edited and republished. the events of this story , for those who have read it prior to February 2023 , have been slightly altered to make way for my improved and matured writing style (as well as to fix plot inconsistencies). originally published : june 2017 newly published : february 2023 ____________________ Copyright © All Rights Reserved

Carry My Heart - Book 3 by Cathy_Zeewriter

Cassy and Blake have fought too hard to rebuild the fragile trust between them, mending the pieces of a love that once seemed irreparably broken. Just as they finally begin to breathe again, a devastating secret emerges-one so earth-shattering that it shatters Cassy's world and threatens to consume her whole. The betrayal cuts deeper than she ever imagined, inflicted by those she trusted most. The truth, with its sharp edges, sends her spiraling into a darkness she's never known before, pulling her further from everything-including Blake. And as the weight of her pain grows heavier, the love they rebuilt begins to crack under the strain. But Blake refuses to lose her. He sees the light in her even when she can't, fighting to pull her from the shadows before they swallow her completely. Yet, no matter how hard he tries, the walls around her heart keep rising, and for the first time, he wonders if love alone will be enough to save them. In Beneath Shattered Promises, love is tested beyond its limits in a raw, emotional journey of betrayal, grief, and resilience. As Cassy drowns in pain and Blake fights to bring her back, one question remains-can love survive when the past refuses to let go? Or is this the breaking point for two hearts that once felt unbreakable? "More love, more heartbreak...and definitely more tissues." ***** Started writing: 28 February 2019 Finished writing: 16 August 2019

The Sole Prince by cheddarandcheese

[ Only the ocean can bring a prince and a pirate together, only the sea can keep their secrets, and only the waves can tear them apart. ] [ COMPLETED - 80K Words] [ LGBT Historical Romance ] [ FEATURED ] James Serrio is supposed to be a prince, not a prisoner rotting away in the bottom of a pirate ship. His future was royalty, not death in a grimy hunk of wood, but it seems that fate had a different plan. Just when things couldn't seem to get worse, another ship attacks, and James is starting his prisoner journey all over again. But these new pirates are different, to say the least, especially Sage Morrow, the captain, with his black coat, gold buttons, sharp jawline, and steel-blue eyes. There's something about the captain that reminds James of a fire on a cold day. And, there's something about the new prisoner that reminds Sage of home. But there are more important things for James to focus on than a man, like the fact he's somewhere on the vast ocean, in a ship full of hungry pirates, with nothing more than a necklace and a quick brain to call his own. The Sole Prince is the story of James Serrio and Sage Morrow, and their consequential fate after running into each other smack dab in the middle of nowhere.

Senior Year by sammyhansen21

Haven Collins is an average teenager in an average home, with average wealth, and an average smile. She's never stood out in her life and she liked it that way. She's hardly called on in class and doesn't have a large group of friends. Then senior year happens. Over the summer her parents were killed in a car accident. She's left with her 8-year-old brother and now lives at her Aunt's house. Now she has to learn to cope and raise her brother. Things change drastically. She's an outcast. She barely speaks, can't seem to match her clothes, and is hanging on by a thread. Then Apollo Laurant shows up. Apollo has a problem. He can't seem to control himself. He gets kicked out of school for fighting or not even attending. He's been to many military schools and private schools, but nothing seems to tame this bad boy. Eventually, his parents give up and enroll him in a public school. Redwood High School, home of the Robins. Everything changes when he meets a dulled-eyed Haven on his first day. Will he change his ways? Can Haven move on? Or will they ruin each other?
