When a girl stuck in a stalling life meets a guy who makes even snack-table banter feel like an adventure, neither expects more than a night of distraction. But after one too many 'almosts' and a coin that shouldn't matter as much as it does, she finds herself booking a ticket to Ireland-he's going to see his family; she's going to see if she still remembers how to live.
What begins as a spontaneous detour becomes something heavier. Somewhere between Dublin bus stops, rainy cliffs, and pub songs sung too loudly, they must decide:
Are they running away-or just finally moving forward?
A quietly aching, sharply funny story about control, connection, and the terrifying hope of something real.

I Fell in Love with a Bad Boy
CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.

Roommates with Benefits [COMPLETED]
Emma has sworn never to fall in love, but when circumstances force her to move in with her brother's best friend there are definite sparks. Like when he accidentally picks up her *toy*... Or when she walks in on him naked in the shower... Maybe... maybe they should just do it once... to get it out of their systems. Knightley has been her brother's best friend for as long as she can remember. And now they're all at the same university. It's not until she moves into his apartment that she notices just how grown-up he's become. He's no longer the scrawny boy she never paid attention to. Ripped and handsome, he's no stranger to taking women home. But he never lets them stay the night. Knightley never expected this. Somehow, he's ended up living with his best friend's little sister. And she has turned hot as hell. He does not need the image of her with a vibrator taking up space in his head. She is off limits. Of course she is. No matter what kind of feelings he has for her. This is a brother's best friend, roommates-to-lovers with a secret relationship and steamy benefits. (❤️18+ recommended❤️) It's unedited, so there might be mistakes throughout. Thanks for your understanding! Book 2 in the Benefits series. This is a standalone, but it follows Pride and Hate with Benefits. (Both are inspired by Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and Emma.)

Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt)
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book.

[COMPLETE] Sorry this may be cringe, it was written very long ago A seemingly ordinary, working college girl meets a cool, undeniably sexy boy with millions of followers at his feet. How will their completely different lives allow, or prevent them from getting what they want? Expect some drama, flirty lines, steamy scenes, funny best friends, and perhaps, an overall epic love connection. ~ Carter came around the corner as his eyes darkened with a predatory gaze. Oh no. He took a step forward, minimalizing the distance with every dominating stride, as I froze in my spot. My breath hitched as his arms finally encircled my waist and his eyes locked with mine. In one swift motion, he flipped my body so my back was pressed against his chest and hands gripped the curve of my hips. "What game are you trying to play at Valerie?" he spoke in a husky voice. Goosebumps danced along my skin as his hot breath fanned against the shell of my ear and his fingertips lit a trail of blazing heat along the length of my arm. Mentally shaking myself from the trance of that which is Carter Bryson, I tilted my head towards him and whispered; "One where you'll lose." Quickly escaping his hold on me before the tension became unbearable, I spun on my heel to face him and slowly backed away towards the exit. "Good luck though." I added mischievously. With a smirk and a devilish glint in his eyes that could even give hell a run for its money, he replied; "I'm not a player though, baby. I'm the gamemaker." ~ ❗️Mature content.
