Trying Romance! She came for college credits. She stayed for a kiss that could ruin everything.
When 16-year-old Madeline flies from Brisbane to Greece to chase her dream of getting into Oxford, she expects three months of sun, science, and solo walks by the sea. But one fall, one boat ride, and one boy later... she's tangled in something much deeper than the ocean.
Nikos-the charming, breathtaking local with secrets stitched into his smile-is everything she never expected. And his kiss? Electric. Dangerous. Addicting.
But there's one problem. Actually... there's several.
A whispering town with eyes everywhere.
A five-year-old with a plushie and too much to say.
A father who looks like a raisin but sees everything.
And Demitra, the fiancée. The villain in heels. The girl they call "DD."
Now stuck in a mansion full of lies, locked stares, and a language she doesn't understand, Madeline must decide if falling in love is worth falling apart.
Because in Chora, even the sunsets have shadows.

Dive Into Him | 18+
'Fuck you,' I breathed, pulling away from the kiss, searching his eyes. He was enjoying it. 'If you keep saying that, maybe you will someday,' he teased, his fingers going into the waistband. Feeling his smooth, long fingers on the skin of my pussy sent shockwaves through my body. He was staring at me, watching my every reaction, and I dared not to look away.

My Best Friend's Brother ✓
"You should really tell him soon," Austin said as he walked closer to me. "It's complicated," I sighed, avoiding eye contact with the greek god standing before me. "Try me," Austin took another step towards me and once again I moved away from him. My back hit the wall, preventing me from moving any further. "It's just that I didn't want to upset him if it turned out that this wasn't going anywhere," "So now what?" He asked. "Violet I like you a lot, this isn't just some fling," he took a final step toward me and placed both hands on the wall besides my head so I was trapped. I gulped at his words. "Do you really mean it? Because if I'm going to tell him and risk our friendship I need to know that I'm not going to catch you making out with some cheerleader next week," Austin leaned his head forward and nuzzled into my neck. "I want to try and make this work," he said huskily before trailing kisses up my neck and along my jaw. "Okay, I'll tell him," *** Like most of the female population at her school, Violet is completely and utterly head over heels in love with the sex god that is Austin Hendrix. Unlike most of the female population at her school, Violet just so happens to be best friends with Austin's brother, essentially meaning that Austin is off limits, not that that matters since Austin wouldn't even breathe in Violet's direction right? Wrong. After having Violet literally fall for him at a concert, Austin can't seem to get the girl with the sarcastic tongue and muddy converse out of his mind. Throw in Violet's over controlling dad, a phyco ex booty call and the fact that Austin has a knack for charming girls out of their dresses and things may get a little ... complicated. ** As much as I wish I took the picture of the sex god on my cover picture I didn't so credit to whoever that lucky person is**Complete
