"in her defense, he was the problem..."
Clarette Pagen, or shall I say Lady Clare, is the eldest daughter of the Duke and Duchess. Clare is to have an arranged marriage with the monarch, Prince Calim, and expected to move to a new country.
How can she be in line for the throne when she can barely get herself out of bed!
Clare isn't that type of woman- she'd rather make her life actually useful, read books, than to ever be in a love story- or be controlled by a man.
Knowing no one would really care, she finds an escape plan. Clare decides to shove her favorite books in her satchel rather than her status and finally escapes from the world of ballrooms and proper etiquette.
On her path to nowhere, Clare gets startled by a man in the woods. Honestly? He was just riding a horse looking for apples. Couldn't've done much harm.
Flynn Arakot, a confusing Irish-British man who likes horses, apples, and apparently also insulting her shoes.
By the time Flynn shows her his home- things didn't go exactly right, you can say his reaction to her being noble is self explanatory.
Forced to live in close proximity, two worlds clash together. One where curtsying was completely necessary, and the other throwing acorns at random people was for fun.
As Flynn would say, what on God's green earth is going to happen to them?

Settling Slowly
2015 rolled in with a bang, and it did not have the grace to gift me with a social life that everyone in a one hundred year radius would be jealous of or that is even just the talk of the town. Instead I got myself into a complicated relationship which wasn't much talked about, a relationship that I didn't get into is talked about all the time and university is around the figurative corner. That is where you can factor in people I suppose I should call 'fans', the fascination that comes in with cutlery, pots, pans and other formerly boring things. But let us not forget that my parents are finally getting married and Mum can't shop for lace without me wanting to kill her, add in a dose of sleepless nights, invigorating kisses - which have nothing to do with the sleepless nights and a lot to do with nightmares - Harriet not knowing the meaning of the words "you're done" and Ice Ice Baby is still a thing. We're all growing up (except Dad who will still make inappropriate jokes at every inappropriate moment, some to do with what cannot be done when you're wearing a plaster cast) and holidays are being planned though some are less holiday and more a mad dash to find somewhere to live out in the big wide world without our parents. Life might be moving on, but I still go to McDonald's late at night with my friends. Some things at least don't change. Sequel to: Falling Fast CompleteCompleta
to live for the hope of it all.
"If you are ever lucky enough to come across something so beautiful it shifts your whole world, don't ever let that go." Beckett Davis: I've been in love with Bailey Connors since I was 7 years old and she gave me back my soccer ball. We've been neighbors for years, even sharing windows facing each other's bedrooms. Our families are close, I view her grandfather as my own. The only thing is, I still can't bring myself to say more than a few words to the girl who occupies most of my thoughts. Going into my last year of high school, I needed the chance to have my world shifted by Bailey Connors. Bailey Connors: I broadcasted my crush on Beckett Davis in the 2nd grade after decorating him a cookie. And every time after that when I can't control how my face heats around him. My grandfather adores the boy next door, and who doesn't? I'm embarrassed of how long it took me to reach for things I may want, instead of just letting things happen to me. Beckett's seen some of my worst moments from afar, but what would it be like for him to see them up close? #1 in bookworm #1 in highschoolromance #1 in foundfamily #1 in goldenretriever #1 in neighbors #1 in teenromance #1 in friendstoloversCompleta
Broken Promises
"Promises were meant to be broken..." "... I choose you. Always." ~~~ Amanda Lucienne, the heir of House Norton, has caught herself peering into what people call "The Forbidden Fruit" - well, the fruit is romance. Only eighteen years of age, and yet facing the magnitude of strongly bound tradition. She must find a suitable partner to marry. But what if she fell for a rogue instead? And not just any rogue, but a being from another side. Will she deal with the consequences of this romance? Or will she let tradition realign the course of her life back into one acceptable by many? ~~~ A/N: Rated M due to some aspects. Such as homophobic implications and slight violence (though not very graphic) among others. You have been warned. DISCLAIMERS: I do not own any of the images used in the cover art.
