Stephanie Drake, or Steph as she's known to her friends, is lost. Somewhere between the end of her childhood, and the day her loser of a boyfriend called it quits on their so-called relationship, she forgot who she was. She lives each day in a perpetual routine, stuck in the confines of her normal, safe life. If she doesn't take a risk, she won't get hurt-right?

Then she meets Pete-or Pistol to his friends.

He's blunt, arrogant, and straight forward about what he wants. And as it turns out, he wants her.
Should she take a walk on the wild side, risk being burnt, and lay her heart on the line? Something in the way he makes her feel tells her 'yes', but her friends aren't so sure this emotionally shut-off man has a place in her life. Why should she listen to them, though? After all, they don't know a thing about him ...

My Anti-Valentine by shaylamariam

Book 1 | Completed | Niko Molchalin has always been a reserved man. As the owner of Inked-a tattoo shop-the need to speak hasn't really been an essential requirement of his job, and he liked it that way. His customers came in for one reason only, and that was to get some wicked designs etched onto their skin, not to socialize and share each other's past emotional experiences. So when his chatter-box neighbor from the cupcake store across the street came in to drop off her last batch of sweets upon foreclosure, he surprised himself by offering her the receptionist position that was available in his shop. Ryssa Morgan was everything Niko wasn't. Her face was perpetually lit up with a friendly smile, and her eyes held a gleam of animation and optimism that was foreign to Niko. Just when he started to feel comfortable with her, someone from his past showed up, threatening to collect on a debt. After Niko gets injured defending her, they find somewhere safe for the night to lay low. As the hours passed, Ryssa insisted that Niko explain everything to her about his past and why people were after them.2 As Valentine's Day approaches, will Niko be able to protect her? Will these two be able to overlook their differences and finally give in to their desires?

Colt "Ghost" Vale knows better than to fall for the girl who was never meant to survive him. Now they're tangled in secrets, violence, and the kind of love that devours everything in its path. Italy was supposed to be their escape. Instead, it's the place where the truth crawls out of its grave. He's her ruin. She's his reason. And between them lies a past that refuses to die. Because some ghosts don't haunt you- they claim you.

Lacey by xxitsmeimbitchesxx

When my father left my mother and me for a better life, I was devastated and naively thought my life couldn't get any worse. How wrong I was. My new stepfather decided he was entitled to my body, and my mother became an alcoholic who did her best to ignore my existence. My only solace in life was my younger twin stepsisters and my best friend, Dane. Over time, Dane and I became more than friends; he knew my deepest, darkest secrets, and I knew his. When I turned sixteen, I couldn't stand my stepfather's abuse any longer, so I reached out to my father and begged him to take me in. Overnight I went from sleeping in a putrid-smelling, cramped trailer to living in a mansion. It was there that I met the devil himself. Disguised as my new, breath-taking stepbrother, Ryder. Ryder and his three best friends, Saint, West and Lawson turned my world upside down. At first, they possessively loved and adored me; unfortunately, that all changed the night of my junior prom, where my life went from bad to worse. The four boys I had grown to trust with my secrets and body turned on me when the queen bitch of the school shared a video with them. Now my only allies in life are Dane and a sweetheart named Matt, who is willing to take any beating my stepbrother and his friends give him to stay at my side. Life had always handed me lemons; was I strong enough to turn those bitches into lemonade? Trigger warnings: Dub/Con, Non/Con, SA, Drug use, Self harm, Murder.

"I gave you a chance to leave and never come back, why didn't you take it?" I looked into those deep grey eyes that I fell for. "Because I wouldn't have my wife sitting right next to me on that train ride." I answered truthfully. ☔︎☔︎☔︎ He has never met someone as mean as her. The glare on her face almost seemed permanent. The only words that fall out of her mouth are ones that will leave you tarnished and torn, making you second guess where you went wrong. Even worse, she never spoke, more like she grunted responses. When he first laid eyes on her, he fell in love with her tattoos, her attitude, her charm. He didn't understand why he kept coming back? He was intrigued with her. No matter what she said or did to him, he kept coming back. He was impatient but would wait for her. . . . She never understood how someone could keep a smile on their face everyday. The way he always kept a positive look on life. He never frowned. He was the flavour bubblegum that everyone wanted. The go-to ice cream flavour that you always get on a sunny day. That one summer vacation that you'll never forget. She hated his smile, his laugh, his eyes. She hated that she wanted to see that smile everyday. She hated that she couldn't stay away from him. She would happily set the world on fire but never let a flame touch him. ☔︎☔︎☔︎ All Rights Reserved 2022Ⓒsyriacax
