Calliope Serpenter doesn't belong. Not in Greenwood - a painfully religious, picture-perfect little town with polished girls and pressed uniforms. Not in her family - where her mother calls her "Calliope" like it's a punishment, and her stepdad glares like she's a sin they forgot to pray away.
All she has is her diary, her music, and the burning rage of being a living replacement for the sister who died before she was born.
Then he shows up.
Prince Beau. Blond. Smiling. Absolutely lost. And apparently in Greenwood to find a girl to marry. Spoiler: he's not supposed to fall for the cigarette-smoking, rule-breaking, emotionally wrecked punk girl who told him to leave the café or order something.
But he does.
And Calli? She wants nothing to do with him.
Too bad fate (and her manipulative mother) has other plans.
Now she's being dragged into the kingdom, into royal politics, and into the kind of attention she's spent her whole life avoiding. But Calli doesn't play nice - and she doesn't bow.

Fading Boundaries Again
Olivia Wren grew up in a strict household-the kind with rules for everything: when to go to bed, where she could be, and constant location tracking the second she left the house. Most teenagers would've rebelled. But not Liv. She followed every rule down to the last letter. So when she got to college, it made sense that she'd use her freedom to the fullest. Parties, late nights, no one watching her every move. For a while, it felt like everything she'd missed out on. But after two years, the freedom starts to lose its shine. With nothing solid to fall back on, Liv lets herself go. It takes hitting a low point to realize that the girl she's become isn't who she wants to be anymore. Then there's Jace Rylan Camden. The kind of guy Liv's sworn off. He shows up to class drunk on the first day-not exactly the best first impression. He's an athlete, lives in a frat house, and hangs out with his loud group of friends. Basically, everything Liv's tried to leave behind. But when casual class interactions turn into seeing each other outside of it, Liv starts to question whether she's really moved on-or if Jace might be different from what she thought. Especially when the two stumble into a fake relationship- kind of will be hard to keep away from each other this way huh?Complete

Drain My Soul
- CONTENTS MATURE! 18+ scenes - Celeste believed nothing more than being a normal girl, in a normal street, in a normal world but nothing can just be normal? Right? Well this idea of a normal life, stops for Celeste and she goes back to her parents home town, where she is forced by law to a mating ball and is convinced she is something she is not.... But when she meets a blue eyed handsome man that is not who he seems, she is intrigued and is ready to explore. Follow Celeste on her journey to find out who she really is, discover the world she believes is insane and will these blue eyes help her? ------ "I effect you as much as you effect me and it pains me to see my mate with another" he whispers in my ear. I gulp deeply and I want to drop to my knees, to plead that my life is in his hands. Although I gulp and shake my head. "Fine, but I'll be there and I'll be watching!" He whispers in hush tones. I gulp and feel the pain again in my chest. His blue eyes come back to my own and I don't even give him a smirk. He lets go of my jaw and with in a flash I see him leave. The thought in my mind is that my mate is fucking hot and I don't know how long I can deny that for or deny the inseparable connection between us. ---- A/N Just a quick note to say that this book indeed does need heavy editing and as a Co-writer I find this story not in my favour. I know the main character Celeste may come across as mean and as a comment mentioned 'annoying' this book will go through editing. But I'd you choose to still read then fantastic! It's our first 'mate' and 'vampire' book so please be kind and all comments will be taken into consideration. Thank you L&R xComplete
Assassins don't cry
{Re-written version} Jade isn't just a good assassin-she's the best. She's seen it all, done it all and doesn't get rattled easily Except when she's told she has to kill the most feared mob boss of the century- Silas Andreeva But what she doesn't know is that this is all a ploy for Silas to test Jade's capabilities. But it isn't just about a test, is it?-it's personal. Silas isn't just looking for a killer; he's drawn to her specifically. It starts with respect-admiration for her skill, the way she doesn't flinch under pressure. But then? It gets messy. Once recruited, a dangerous tension builds. Every conversation, every moment is a push and pull between an assassin and the man who should be her target. Jade and Silas are equals. She's the best assassin out there, and he's the kind of man crazy enough to invite his death just to see if she's worth his time. Neither of them fully trusts the other... but that just makes things hotter. "Am I falling for him, or is this just another game?" "Did I set this up to test her... or because I wanted to keep her close?" They should be enemies. They should walk away. But neither of them does. Because deep down, they know-this is the most fun they've had in a long time. This is the kind of love story that simmers-slow burns with tension so thick it's practically crackling. Every interaction is a game of cat and mouse, but neither of them is sure **who's who. And the best part? They both know it's dangerous. They just don't care.Complete
With the Shadows
Saya grew up in a small village, on an extremely small island. Her dad died when she was a year old. He was in the army and went off to fight but never returned. Saya's mom had cancer since Saya was six. Everyone knew it, but she tried so hard to hide it rather than ask for help. She tried to fight it at the same time but it never worked, the treatments always failed. When she died, Saya was barely eight years old, and had to go live with her uncle, on the opposite coast of the island. He was abusive to her, but she never had anywhere to go and Saya felt bad for him. His wife had died the year before, so he didn't think he had a purpose in life. The neighbors knew what he was doing, but didn't have the proof to bring it to the police. Saya heard of a tiquando class nearby, and wanted to learn to protect herself, so she snuck in every day and practiced from a safe distance. One day, two kids found her and they later became friends, their names were Lin and Jaune. When Saya was eleven, her uncle was murdered, and the police arrested her, since she was the only one living there. Later, Lin and Jaune were arrested trying to break her out. They've been there ever since. Hey guys! So I know this is a long description, but that is just a little background information on the main character in this book. This is one of my first stories so please forgive me for whatever my seem stupid.Complete

Soulmates by Summer
Andi: When I get assaulted with hot coffee after an already awful day, I don't count on leaving the encounter with a hot new fake boyfriend. Who just happens to be the infamous Silas Livingstone. Hockey star. My big brother's teammate. Incredibly infuriating and annoyingly handsome. However, the bigger shock is that Silas wants to make a deal-if he can get me to fall in love with him by June, then I go out with him for real. Because I'm never one to back down from a challenge, I agree. Besides, there's no way I'm losing this bet. Summer is less than two months away and life isn't a romcom. I mean, it's not as if it's possible to become soulmates by summer... right? Silas- I've got two months to prove to the girl of my dreams that we're meant to be. Though I don't doubt that she'll eventually come around, problem is, I don't know if I can wait that long to call her mine. Andi is the most stubborn, kindhearted, funniest person I've ever met-and she might just deny what I know she feels for me just to win this stupid bet. But I've never been one to back down from a challenge or to give up what I love. Summer is less than 2 months away. 2 months to show Andi just how much I love her, before I could lose her forever. Life may not be one of those romcoms she loves, but I do believe that there are soulmates-and I've finally found mine. There's no way I'm letting her go come summer.
