His Appointed Wife
"What if the right person is also your Mr. So Wrong?" *** Her lips touched and teased and coaxed him and he felt her touch in every cell and every bone. Soft and supple, her body was around him. Everywhere. She was everywhere. He was hungry for more, but he couldn't break this sweetness. Shy and timid, she kissed like herself. All so innocent, but incredibly passionate. The kiss was gentle, yet also fire. And he couldn't help anymore. He wanted more. He pushed her back gently and her back hit the wall and he pressed himself to her amazing body. "Ah." He thought. "Can I really stay away after this?" "I can't." She thought. ~~~ A guy, a girl, a contract and sizzling sexual tension brewing between them. Is it possible for them to come out of it with zero casualties? ~~~ "I'll give you a place to stay and I'll pay you, all you have to do is to pretend to be my wife for an year, in return.

Let me In
"Oh, so you're the secretive new girl who likes to keep to herself and doesn't want any friends. So if that's the case I take it you don't have a boyfriend." I laugh. "Nice how you put that in there, but not I don't have a boyfriend. I left him back in Washington." "Was it serious?" "No we only dated for a little while." "Why'd you break up?" I sigh and look out of the window. "Long story." I say softly. Short really, but it'd take me forever to actually explain it.

She never keeps friends and especially not boyfriends, but when Conner and his sister come along she's breaking all her rules.

We Really Shouldn't (student/teacher relationship)
"Your sarcasm is cute, but you don't have to use it so often." He was smiling. "This is a pretty open place to meet your student." "Which is true." Nodding his head but not dropping my hand or creating a space between us. "Okay. Sooo still haven't told me the purpose of me being here." I laughed lightly. My palm was beginning to become sweaty and my heart was beating so fast. Extremely fast. "I wanted to see you." He bit out truthfully. "Well you see me." My voice was barely above a whisper but some how he heard me and stepped closer. "Which is also true."Oh God, he was leaning down. Was he going to kiss me? Who am I kidding, he was going to kiss me.

Think About Me
Sometimes it's an old flame that burns the brightest. Carter lives a quiet, happy life. She's got everything she could ever want. Her dream apartment, her dream job, a budding relationship with a new guy who's sweet and kind and good for her. How could she ask for more? But when an old crush comes back to town and asks her to catch up, her curiosity gets the better of her. She knows she shouldn't ask, but she's dying to know: does she ever cross his mind like he does hers? The answer might be like putting a torch in her hand, might drive her to be reckless enough to catch fire to this new relationship she's built. Maybe it'll all turn to ash, but maybe... something better will come out of it. I do not own the rights to any of the photos. All credit goes to the original owners.Complete
MY HIDDEN THERAPY
Hey everyone! I'm excited to share that I'm working on a love story. Writing has always been a passion of mine, and this story allows me to create a world born from my imagination. The characters are entirely fictional: while I've envisioned the male lead distinctly, the female lead shares some similarities with me. This story revolves around a sweet high school romance between two top students. The male lead is an egoistic character who unexpectedly falls for a girl who often battles self-doubt and has a quick temper. I'm eager to explore how these two meet and develop a beautiful relationship filled with love and friendship, ultimately becoming each other's unrecognized source of support. I hope to bring my imagination to life through this narrative and that you will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it!
