Meet Taryn Mitchell, a lovable whirlwind of chaos, charm, and unfiltered honesty. At 30, she's juggling life as a single mom to two adorable kids, Ava and Kevin, while surviving a daily rotation of parenting adventures, wardrobe malfunctions, and a car that seems personally offended by her existence. She's not expecting romance. She's not even expecting a break. But life has other plans.
When Taryn lands a job as the assistant to Zane Jensen, the tall, tattooed, ridiculously handsome CEO of Skyline Developments, her world tilts in a direction she never saw coming. The chemistry between them is instant, undeniable, and absolutely terrifying. Zane is confident, successful, and way out of her league... at least according to the little voice in her head that never shuts up.
Taryn's low self-esteem makes every moment feel like a test she's destined to fail. From cupcakes falling on her face to pants ripping at the worst possible times, she's convinced Zane will eventually realize she's a walking disaster. And when his ex, Isabella Steel, a stunning model with legs for days, suddenly reappears, Taryn's insecurities hit an all-time high.
But Zane isn't backing down. He sees something in Taryn she can't quite see in herself yet. Now he has to prove he's all in before her fears push her away for good.
Because sometimes the messiest love stories are the ones worth fighting for.

Tough Love (Completed)
"Will be there in 20?" The message from Dean reads. My brain says I should text back saying 'I will rip your balls off if you come over' or 'I am not a sex toy, you could come over and use me as and when you please' or at least a simple 'No'. But I don't. I squat next to my bed and pull out the white powder to numb the pain. I told myself that I am done with Dean and I am going to get my life back together. I cleaned up, battled withdrawals and even improved my grades. One text from him and I am snorting coke. Why do I do this to myself? Why do I let Dean treat me like trash? Why do I set myself up knowing that it's only a matter of time before he will run back to Sherley leaving me in limbo?

Secrets, Lies And Broken Hearts
"Are you happy?" The question comes out of nowhere and throws me off guard... Because 3 months ago, before he attended that party, I would have said yes I'm happy... But right now, I'm not sure. "What do you mean?" "It's a simple question June... Are you happy?" "Y-yes." "Let me rephrase... Are you happily married?" "Why are you asking me all these questions?... I've given you the answers you needed, I don't..." "Shut the fuck up June!... It's a bloody simple question... Are. You. Happy?" he snaps. He's really mad right now and that makes me squirm in my seat. "Are you?" My voice comes out barely above a whisper, but enough for him to hear what I said... He stands and begins pacing, running his hands through his hair frustratedly and messing it up, his jaw locked, and he just continues to pace and that makes me uncomfortable... I stand, and he stops pacing and just stares at me, I try to look as confident as I can, but inside I'm nervous as hell and dying to know what he's thinking. "I'm not..." This is a not so classic love story, filled with clichés, twists and turns, some cliffhangers, mature scenes... Yada Yada Yada... Come on!

All We Shouldn't Have
Love was never meant to threaten the crown. But when hearts defy kingdoms, duty becomes the heaviest burden of all. From the author of Kissing Snow and Keeping Bloom comes a story of forbidden love, loyalty, and the cost of destiny. He's a prince. I'm nobody. The one thing we can't have? Each other. Prince Alfred of Verdalia was born with everything-wealth, power, a kingdom waiting for his crown. But he wants the one thing he was never allowed to touch: me. Maria Daniella Rodriguez. Spanish-Filipino. Stubborn. Reckless. Ordinary. The girl he kissed once in Madrid. The girl he found again when the world told him to forget. The girl he's willing to burn a kingdom for. Every kiss is treason. Every touch is a scandal. Every stolen night is another step toward losing everything. Because in a world where crowns are heavier than hearts... we're forced to choose: the love that could destroy us, or the throne that was never ours to begin with.Complete
