****Sneak peek: 

He came closer to me, dangerously closer, and I stepped back until I hit the wall. I was stuck with no way out now. Ha! As if I really wanted to leave...He lifted my chin, oh so gently, and stared at me with the same intense look that had haunted me for nights. That look that said something so different from all the hatred he kept throwing at me. It's probably when he leaned forward that my heart stopped beating though, his lips brushing against mine as he whispered:

"You're going to be my downfall Edie Williams. As I will be yours."

He was right. I knew he was. I didn't understand any of this, of all that had happened for the past few weeks but I knew that my life had changed. And probably not for the best. But heck, it's not like I can control it, I thought before throwing myself at him. 

*****
Can you really start over? Bury the demons of your past and leave it all behind?
Connect with someone despite all the walls you've cautiously built? Find love when you haven't found yourself?
Guess we'll have to find out.

But what happens when two broken people fall in love ?
Either they fix themselves, or they destroy themselves furthermore till the breaking point.

Red Lilac by iletomichelle

After five years and a thousand regrets, two old lovers meet again.. "What kind of stunt are you pulling out this time?" I see his eyes blaze in blue fire. And I think I saw regret flash, too, before he blinks it gone. "I am going to win you back." he states as if those are the most natural thing in the world. As if it was as easy as ABC. He went behind his table and sits like a king. He looks at me from head to toe. Did I just saw love in those eyes? But it's too quick; I even thought I only imagined it. "And do you think, buying the company I am working at will help you with your fucking mission on Earth?" I snap taking two steps forward. He stands up, and put both of his hands in the table and lean his body closer to me, putting his weight on his palms. So close, I can even smell his cologne that mixed so naturally with his aftershave. It reminds me of summer. Of him. Of the love we'd shared.

The second in the Gone trilogy. Sequel to Gone. ❝If it's meant to be, they'll come back. ❞ I knew how I wanted my love story to play out. Only, this pesky thing called life got in the way of things and messed everything up. I messed everything up, which caused restless nights for myself due to my innervating thoughts. It was my fault, but I had my reasons. Still, I was stupid. How could I have hurt her like this? We make decisions irrationally sometimes, which cause pain upon others - only we don't realise it at the time. Yet, we're human. We are allowed to do these things, right? I'm going to rectify my mistakes. Emma, I'm back. [HIGHEST- #205 13/09/2015] Cover by my dear friend John. Finished editing in February 2016.

His Dreamer by WYLD_ROSE

Book 2 of the Jackson Series! With a family that wants nothing to do with her and nobody by her side to pick her up when she falls, Zoe Miller is struggling to make her dreams a reality. But things change when she runs into Hunter Jackson. Both hate each other with a burning passion from the start but that quickly changes as Hunter starts to care for the sweet yet sassy redhead. As they fall for each other, a family ridden with greed and ill intentions threaten to break them apart. But somewhere along the way, Zoe finds everything she's looking for in Hunter. It's now a test of whether their love will survive. *** "Did you really have to hit him?" I ask quietly as I move to clean the cut on his lip and cheekbone. "Yes." I smack his chest lightly with a glare. "All we had to do was walk away, Hunt. You can't just go around hitting people, especially at someone else's house!" "Zoe, he's a sleaze bag! He harasses women every chance he can get!" He argues as I apply ointment to everywhere besides his lip. "Still Hunter, you shouldn't have -" "He deserved it and I'm not sorry about ruining his stupid face!" He crosses his arms with an adamant huff. I close the kit with a slam before standing and making my way back to the bathroom. "I can't believe I'm in love with an idiot." "Wait...you love me?" I freeze before turning to face him slowly. Fuck me, did I say that out loud?! I think to myself in horror. "Uh...it depends..." "On what?" He frowns in confusion as he stands. "If you love me too?" I ask bravely while my poor heart hammers away in my chest. He shakes his head with an amused chuckle before staring at me with...adoration? "I love you too." I blink in surprise before nodding my head dazedly. "Good." "Great." He grins widely as we just stand there staring at each other. "Can I have a kiss now?" "What for? Breaking someone's nose? I don't think so." Published to Wattpad: Cover: WYLD_ROSE © 2020 - 2021 WYLD_ROSE ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

Just A Friend by Kadenereadaholic

"Do you know how hard it is for me knowing that you're with someone else?" Tyler asked, staring at me intensely. "You think this is easy for me?" I asked, trying to hold back my tears. "I didn't say it was -" he began, but I cut him off. "It's not. I have to go around hating myself. Hating myself for thinking about you. Hating myself for wanting you. I just want to stop feeling this way." I stepped closer to him as my voice shook with every word. "I want to forget about you, but I just--." The rest of my sentence was cut short as Tyler took the final step, closing the gap between us and brought his lips to mine. ~~~~~~~~ Tyler is back from college to find out that the girl who once held his heart has a new boyfriend. They haven't been together for four years now, so why can't he convince himself that he's over her?

Everything was going great, and she thought she was finally beginning to be happy again, but all that changed when Tyler moved back home. Her feelings that she thought she had buried resurfaced.

However, you don't need to read "Just A Kiss" to read this. This story can be read alone. ****** Wonderful cover made by @yourgirlnana21

His Sight (A Stand-alone) by AnnaQuill

"Why can't you just let your guard down for once and trust me?" Karen demanded angrily. His dark eyes blazed at her statement. "What, did I hit a soft spot?" She continued sarcastically and he flinched. "Just be quiet." He ordered. She took a step closer, ignoring the way the air around them had suddenly became strained. "Why?" She whispered, her mocking tone only fueling his anger, "are you so afraid of people actually caring about you that you pull out all the stops to make them hate you? Because if so it's working." "You know, maybe I don't let anyone in because every time I do they always leave! Every. Single. One. They think they can fix the poor blind man, and leave when they realize it's impossible." He shouted, his veins straining against his pale skin. "I-" Karen started, but stopped when his cold voice interrupted her. "Just get out." #19 in Chicklit 10/13/17 #9 in Chicklit 10/28/17 [Description will soon change]

You Got It Bad by Ophelia_is_Knightly

I suddenly felt the need to explain. "I did not say that I hated you! I said that I didn't like you! It's totally different! Besides I didn't even mean it, I had been embarrassed. It was so obvious that I was in love with you, even a stranger would have realized it!" He stared at me and I stared back. "You were in love with me?" I blushed. I just ratted myself out. I looked down at my hands and started to bit my bottom lip. This was getting out of hand. -------------------------------------------- Danielle Williams once had a crush on mr.

He looks like poison hiding behind a pretty face, seducing you to give in before he drags you to hell for sinning. I try and think of how I can lead him away without raising suspicion. But I don't end up having to do much because Judah soon blocks my way. "Why are you hiding from me little dove?" "I'm not." I whisper back. "How about we finish what we started that day?" I blush at the memories but quickly realize this is the best excuse to get him out of the spotlight. He takes my hand before we leave through the door and check a few rooms only to figure out that they're all locked. "The rooftop's door is open." As soon as he takes the first step I trip him but he finds his footing before swinging at my ribs. What I didn't expect was for him to pounce on me and pull my dagger out of my holster before stabbing my leg. Kicking his shin with my good leg I manage to flip us over. He's just about to throw me off when I land an uppercut to his jaw. I take out my gun to end this but just as I pull the trigger I'm grabbed. "No!" I struggle as I'm tied up before they check Judah. The wound clearly missed and isn't at all fatal. I watch as he sits up with a pained groan before his eyes meet mine. "I think I'm in love." He states breathlessly with a handsome grin.

Capture Me by mercuryvein

Wife The world was indeed a very small, cramped space, because the thought that I would see him again never crossed mind. The years changed him. The loving, laid-back man I used to love was gone, and in his place is a cruel, calculating hunter. I didn't care though, we were through and the love I felt for him was long buried in the past. Was it? Husband She goddamned left me. No how, no why. She just fucking left and she thought she was fucking badass enough to kill. She doesn't have a fucking clue that she was about to flick a fire to a hive of criminals. Fuck! I anticipated every second of meeting her again, because now that I caught her, there was no fucking letting go.

Let Me Go ✔️ by TonishaLeigh

*COMPLETED* "you know, you kind of have a bad reputation around here." I stated with my arms crossed. He wore a sexy smirk and took a step forward, and then another. "do you believe any of it?" He asked in a husky voice as he stopped in front of me. The look in his eyes was smoldering and I began to feel hot all over. "should I believe it?" I asked in a meek voice. He chuckled once, still sporting that same sexy smirk. He reached out and moved my hair behind my ear and uncrossed my arms. "i think if you believed it, you wouldn't be here right now." His voice came out rich and smooth. "so, do you trust me?" The look he was giving me was starting to make me sweat. My words seemed to be failing me so I nodded awkwardly in response. He bit his lip and pulled me into him. He brought his lips to my ear. "and you won't regret it."
