Summary:
 
You are a college student, recently turned 21, and a stunt actress. 

Your best friend Tasha Sevens (an actress whom is entirely a figment of my and now your imaginations) is a fairly famous actress who's starred in many movies and is fantastic. She's clever and funny and gorgeous and talented. 

You're absolutely proud of the fact that she's an actress, because she was absolutely made to be one. You yourself are an active stunt-actress who's been in multiple movies yourself. 

If there's one thing you know you're pretty damn good at, it's taking hits.

You wake up one morning to find that Tasha's new boyfriend is on your shared couch, and is someone you'd never expected to be able to meet your entire life; a very familiar red-headed singer.

And you find that you may have to brace yourself for the hits that are to come.

Because between a dark past that's crawling rapidly towards you and this odd, curious game of love you're playing with Ed, there are going to be some crushing blows.

[Completed] [MATURE CONTENT] [TW: Mentions of drug abuse and self-harm] "When I met her, I told myself 'no feelings'. But I guess you know by now that that's never how feelings work." As a 24-year-old working with underage drug addicts in a rehab facility, Violet Rae is less than impressed when her best friend introduces her to Harry Styles, a top tier member in a notorious drug gang in London who has a heavy coke addiction. Harry seems to have taken an unlikely interest in Violet that nobody, including her, him or his friends seem to understand. The two are an unconventional match and before realizing it, Violet is sucked into a dangerous life that goes against anything she believes in. Can two people who have gone through so much trauma and have so many - literal - scars ever really have a happy ending? [Preview] "It's pathetic, I know. I just feel... so much when you're around me. I can't get enough." His voice died down in a whisper before he flicked his eyes up to stare into mine intently. The green in them instantly took my breath away as I got lost and he gulped audibly. "And I don't just like you, Violet. I love you, I really do." My heart stopped beating for a second before it started thrashing violently in my chest. "Harry..." I sighed as I shook my head, but he cut me off. "No, I know you think it's bullshit and that it's too soon and that I'm lying or that I don't know what I'm talking about, but I do." He spilled. "There's so much you don't know about me." I mumbled, tearing my eyes away from his to focus on the pendant that was laying on the mattress. "I don't care." He whispered back and I shook my head. "I... I can't say it back." "I know." I bit my lip at the intensity of this conversation, and I wondered how long it would take Harry to find out he didn't actually love me at all. ** Started: May 2021 ** Finished: November 2021
The Bad Boy and Me by readbooksforever
36 parts Complete
Meet Violet Summers. She's the sarcastic girl who doesn't really ever get noticed by anyone. She blends into any crowd because of how "normal" she is. And she loves it. She wouldn't be able to stand the attention of everyone around her. That's why she won't tell Ryan Bloore, her crush for three years, that she practically worships the ground he walks on. Ryan is the captain of the basketball team at their school, so guys see him like he's a god and girls act like he walks on water. If they were to date, all eyes would be on her- she would be under everyone's scrutiny. So she's kept her feelings a secret, and she's done her best to suppress her emotions these past years, but she's realized that she's been so caught up in making people not notice her that she didn't realize how lonely she would be when no one was watching. Now meet Ryder Knight. School bad boy. Quarterback captain and heartthrob. The kind that wears a leather jacket and has tattoos all over his arms. The one who shows up to school riding a motorcycle. Just your average run of the mill "if you get involved with this guy, you will meet some serious trouble" kind of male. Well, too bad for Violet, she's stuck with him now. After all of the years of pushing away her feelings for Ryan because of her fear of being seen, she is now all anyone can look at- because of Ryder. Because of him, she can feel their stares, and she hates him for it. The longer they spend time together, the more Ryder starts to realize he actually enjoys being around her-despite her snarky comments about how much she despises him. And if Violet is being completely honest with herself, she's also starting to realize she might not actually hate the fact that people are noticing her now, but hate the way Ryder makes her feel.

Megan attends college at Clemson University and she has a boyfriend, Christian, that she has been with since high school. She has the great best friend, nice apartment and car and she's a year away from her degree, but something just feels missing. Megan doesn't hate her life by any means... She's just gotten sort of bored with it, always feeling like there's something else she needs... Until she meets... Noah. She never expected to meet someone like him much less feel the sparks that ignite as soon as they meet eyes.... Can she just ignore feelings like that? Feelings she never felt before, not even from her own boyfriend. Noah won't be able to resist though, he has to do something about it... about her. Will she give in to the feelings taking over her? ---------- Excerpt: "Oh, you've been picturing me naked have you?" She asked sort of becoming amused now. Shit do I sound like a pervert? "No that's not what I mean...I just..." I tried to laugh it off hoping she wouldn't think I was a douche. She glanced inside through the sliding doors to see what looked like the girl she was dancing with earlier looking for her. When she turned back to look at me she had a look in her eyes that while I didn't know what it meant was still incredibly sexy. "Damn that's too bad... because I have been thinking about you naked since I ran into you this morning." She said confidently standing up and walking past me towards the house but not before brushing her hand across my leg. I watched her in awe as she walked back inside swinging her hips making my eyes go straight towards her ass. I sat there for a few minutes confused but extremely turned on... I couldn't lie I was definitely picturing her naked now.

"I walked over to where Aaron was sitting on the ground, kneeling so that I was face-to-face with him. He was wearing a blank expression on his face so I guess he didn't really care if I kissed him or not. I took in a deep breath before taking his face in both of my hands and swooping down to kiss him. At first, I was so nervous I didn't realize that we were already kissing but after a few moments, I realized how soft his lips felt on my own. Before I can register it I felt him moving against me. I would have gotten off of him but I realize that he wasn't moving to get away from me. No, He was moving his lips against mine." °°°°° Aiden Moore isn't extraordinary. He has average looks, he is OK with sports, and his only strong point is that he is smart (although that doesn't mean much to his fellow classmates). And, of course, his virgin ass has never had a girlfriend, let alone a crush. It seemed as if he would never find someone. That was until he met her, Scarlett Hale. She was the most beautiful girl you will ever meet. Kind, sweet, and one of the few people with a higher GPA then him, she was amazing and Aiden imagined that she would be all his. Once Aiden gets rid of her boyfriend, Aaron Tyler. The most annoying guy you will ever meet, Aiden gags just thinking about him. The man is smoking hot and makes Aiden's dreams of getting the girl to seem very impossible. So what would happen if Aiden gets involved with the wrong person? Will Aiden get the girl? Will he fall short? Or will he fall into the arms of a guy who is in love with the girl he loves? _______________________________________ WARNING: First book EVER! The best part about this book is that it has some funny bits and introduces you to characters I use for a while. But, if you don't like the writing, please consider one of my newer works 😊 Started: May 10, 2016 Completed: September 2016

**Main character IS Ed Sheeran with a changed name!** "Nate..." I called to him after he stood up. I stood up and got close to him. "I DO want to kiss you first." I leaned in and touched my lips to his, and he sighed into my lips, and held his arms around me one more time, while our lips touched for the last time. I did it. I kissed him, and I felt him smile into our kiss. I was happy I made him happy. We pulled away at the same time, and he looked me in the eyes and kissed my cheek. Then my forehead. "I love you Gwen." "I love you Nate", I said back, and he held my hand and led me out of the bedroom. We got to the living room and Gavin came out of the kitchen with a beer, that he took huge sips out of and looked at us. I watched him look at me up and down, and up and down again. And then at Nate, same thing. My heart swelled with the sight of him. But yet...my heart sunk heavy in my chest at what I had to tell him soon. "Well? All done? All kissed goodbye and stuff?" ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Gwen was a slave in a restaurant kitchen by day....and her body sold out to men by night. She was "adopted" from an orphanage years ago by an evil man. There was no escaping. This was her life, and she settled for it. Until Gavin Sherman happened to see her one day, by mistake. From that very second, he couldn't get the image of her shocked, frightened, bruised face out of his mind. So he came back later, to find out what her story was, with some help from his best mate, Nate, to see if he could help her........ Love triangle??? This story is based on Ed Sheeran. His best friend in the story is Harry Styles OR Louis Tomlinson. Which ever you prefer to picture! (I picture Louis.) . But as usual in my stories, I do NOT use their real names. Harry/Louis is a huge part in the story, and things get juicy, for all you 1D fans who want you some H.S./Tommo This is a way way romantical story. So read it, bitches! :)

Arianna Jo Coulter hates starting a new job, at twenty-five she'd been working as an ER nurse in her hometown since she graduated from nursing school. The problem with that is, she knew everyone coming in and out, making her job hard at times. One of the hardest things about being in a small town is relationships and when they end. Ari started dating Eric in college, at first he was so sweet and caring. After she graduated, got a job, he continued with his schooling due to his studying to be a doctor, they just didn't see each other as often. Eric started changing, yelling all the time, putting his hand on her in anger. So before it could go to far, Ari breaks up with him, decides it's time for a change, and applies to several different hospital's in bigger towns far from home. Problem is before she finds out if she gets a new job, her parents and younger sister are killed in a wreck, hit by a drunk driver. Now Ari is even more determined to move away. Harry Edward Styles loves his job, being the youngest doctor ever hired at John Hopkins University Hospital is something he'll never take for granted. He worked his ass off in medical school to graduate early, doing his clinicals a year before most of the others in his class. Everyone in his family knew his dream was to become the head of the ER someday, and at thirty-two, and two years of being considered one of the top doctor's at the hospital he was well on his way making his dream come true. The only thing missing is love, yeah he dates, on occasion, but nothing serious. Harry wants that heart racing, breath stealing, feeling you get when you know you meet the ONE. Until that happens he has his job and few friends. This story is 100% mine. I'll try my best to make any and all medical terms as real as possible. If I get any wrong I'm sorry. This is my first attempt at writing anything relating to this subject. Thank you for reading if you do. All the love, TopazRoze.
