Love Impact ✔️
The last thing Valencia expected was to crash into Damien's life--- literally. Riddled with the guilt of almost costing Damien his life, Valencia agrees to nurse him back to health by living with him for 6 months. But living with an arrogant, handsome stranger might be harder than she expected. ____________________ I had my back turned to him, so I couldn't see his expression. But his breathing was heavy and hot against my skin. He placed hard kisses on my back with his hand wrapped around my stomach to hold me in place. I gasped at the warmth of his kisses. "Why do you own something like this?" He asked coldly. "I-I bought it for a date," I stuttered out. A small bite on my back made me shoot up with a small yelp. "You were going to wear this for some other guy?" Damien's voice dripped with jealousy. "And what if I was?" I mocked, indulging in the stinging I felt where his lips touched. "Then you need to be punished," he said in a low voice. MATURE: Depictions of sex, violence, and profanity #1 in Books #1 in Cute #1 in Comedy #1 in Funny #2 in Hot #4 in Love #5 in DramaComplete

He's silent, rude, uncompromising, and she's positive that he can't stand her...but Chloe also can't deny the way her heart races when he sets his steely gaze on her. Hawk learned early not to trust those who were supposed to care for him, finding solace and family among the brothers of the MC who saved him when he was a teen. Watching over Chloe is just supposed to be another way to repay that debt to the club, or so he keeps telling himself. But as the danger surrounding Chloe escalates and the lines blur between them, Hawk faces a choice between remaining guarded and alone, or letting Chloe in. In a world where trust is a rare commodity and danger lurks in every shadow, Chloe and Hawk must confront their deepest fears and decide if love is worth the risk.
