"Love isn't about who wins or who gets the better cut. Its not about making deals or assuring that you get what you want. Its not about signing contracts or making promises that you can easily back out of. Love isn't business, Wes."
A book filled with thrill, hate, fear, and most importantly love. Watch how two people from completely different places come together. Watch them grow together and live through what the world throws at them. Cry as they argue and fight. Laugh as they do the crazy and enjoy life. But most importantly: fall in love with them as they do with each other.

I Fell in Love with a Bad Boy
CRINGE WARNING! First book I ever wrote on here!! -- "Sometimes the person who you are willing to take a bullet for is the person behind the gun." I stood peering over the cold lifeless body that lay before my eyes. I had always thought of death the enemy, but right now, I blessed it upon the person who is now at peace. Sometimes you don't need to be the smartest, or the fastest, but you do need to be wisest. They say the blood runs deeper than water, and I believe it, because even though the people that we love can turn on us and begin to hate us, they are only human, meaning that soon they will begin to see how short life really is and how it is not to be wasted. People who seem perfect and they look like they have no floors'; they are the people who are suffering, like I was. But I found my savior in the most uncommon place. He was able to look through my mask, he saw the cracks, and tried to fix the broken girl that hid away deep inside the girl who only wanted to be seen as 'fine'. I slowly began to find comfort and safety in him, and I did the same to him. We were two broken people becoming whole. Someone once said when you pass, if you can count your true friends on one hand you are beyond lucky, and I even though I did not like the person that lay before me, I know that he once had true friends, including me. I'm a 17 year old girl who has suffered more than any other, beginning to believe that 'Hope' was just another word the people throw around. Until I fell in love with a badboy.

All Of You
(Though highly recommend to read the book "Obsession, Madness & Love" first, this book can be read as a standalone.) ____________________________________________ I made a mistake. A terrible one. I betrayed my best friend. The only person who ever cared for me. But I had no choice. Then there's his younger sister, Maria Andrews who always looked up to me as if I was some kind of an angel, little does she know that I am far away from that. And now I am on the run, trying to leave everything behind. But it's been four years, four fucking years since her eighteenth birthday when she confessed having feelings for me. For Me. And her words still haunt me, the tears in her eyes when I rejected her still burn my heart but I did what I had to do. People don't love me, especially women...they only seek pleasure from me. I am not a lovable person and someone you should definitely steer clear of. Getting involved with my best friend's (or ex best friend's) sister is stupid and I'm fucking mature enough to not even think of her, of someone who is eight years younger than me. But now, she is here and God help me, I am about to cross every fucking line.Complete

I never said I hate you (COMPLETE)
A love story ....is not a collection of perfect moments with a romantic beginning and a happy ending. It is about moments of insanity, moments of craziness, unreasonable fights, illogical arguments, crossing lines and putting up with "out of the blue" erratic mood swings. Being in love is not about feeling safe and feeling sure about the future. It's about breaking you, shattering you, shuddering every single bone and pulsating every single nerve in our body and still making your bond stronger each day. It is about being vulnerable, uncertain, susceptible and still madly in love. So don't fear love when it comes, simply because it makes you vulnerable and don't be surprised when it leaves either. Just be glad you had the opportunity to experience it. It might last for a few minutes, few days, weeks, months or years and then it might surprise you and last you a lifetime.Complete
