Aiselinn James is a normal young lady in her early twenties. Working at her local bookstore until dusk, studying architecture during her free time, playing with her dog at midnight, and sipping coffee at three a.m.are what makes her who she is.
Grey Ronan Bassinger is the quiet guy nobody notices. Lurking in the shadows, writing almost obsessively whenever he has some time to spare, reading anything he can buy at an affordable price, and simply watching the world all but slip through his fingers - he struggles to acquire his parents' approval. But the only way to do that is by marrying someone, or at least dating.
When the two meet at Aiselinn's work, he can't get her out of his head. Neither can she.
Then he proposes the perfect opportunity for both to get well off.
She gets a boyfriend, and consequently a good reputation.
He gets his parents off his back.
Right?
He just doesn't know that the road to success is way bumpier than he imagined it to be. Especially as his object of attention is a feisty, independent woman who doesn't fall for any simple pick up line.
And Aiselinn's not going to fall without a fight.
Will he be able to do at least one good thing in his life?All Rights Reserved

Every Saint Needs a Sinner by _merrittking_

Jourdan Mathews has a secret, and she knows she needs to take this one to the grave. * * * Her life was never complicated: a college student with a close family, good friends, and a plan for her future as a doctor. Had that night had never happened, she might even have been called ordinary. But we're not made by ordinary moments. Now in her senior year, Jourdan is in freefall after a catalyzing summer that turned everything upside-down. Her friends know she's in trouble, and her parents hope they've done enough to save her, but Jourdan doesn't feel anything anymore. They say moving on happens slowly, but something needs to change fast before life moves on without her. Ryder Harris considers his life to be the farthest thing from "ordinary." He isn't just the kind-of-good basketball player that made him popular in high school. He is the kind-of-great that comes along once in a generation, a fact that has propelled him on a course which only attempts to reach for the stars. If you ask him, this isn't luck or special talent. No, Ryder Harris makes a point to focus himself, to remain undistracted. He's got priorities, and at the very top of his list is being drafted into the NBA. That dream is very close to becoming a reality his senior year, so close he can almost taste it. But the universe has a nasty habit of giving us what we need, not what we want. * * * part I - Jourdan & Ryder * * * Every Saint Needs a Sinner. Copyright. © May 2022. All Rights Reserved.

Alias: The Doyen Series book 1 by ashlynbrooke98

*Paperback is published on Amazon.com. THE DOYEN SERIES book 2: Anecdote is coming soon!* Aisling Collins has lived a mostly perfect life: straight A's, a loving family and she even attends the college of her dreams. But when she meets the mysterious and handsome Kayde Rhys, she learns that not everything is as perfect as it seems. One trip to New Orleans throws Aisling into the most exciting and life-threatening world she never knew existed. Aisling finds that she is more powerful than anyone could have imagined. This is why she has been in hiding for 19 years. Dozens want her dead. Dozens want her alive. Who will win? ...... Excerpt from book: I almost say "okay, let's kill him" but then I remember who I am. What my values are. What my standards are. What my morals are. And this is not 1 of them. Values define who you are. The minute, the second, the millisecond, you forget your values, you lose yourself, your mind, your soul. I already lost my family and my innocence to the supernatural. I am not going to lose my humanity too. I find the words flying out of my mouth in a frantic hurry before I can stop them. I am screeching, screaming, blurting words and phrases and sentences and paragraphs at the people before me like I will soon run out of air. They stare at me like I am speaking in tongues, which I guess to them I am. "Okay," Kayde says as he picks his lifeless brother off the ground. Slings him over his shoulder like he is made of feathers. Nods at me once, twice, 3 times. "We can use him to get information. No killing." He looks me in the eye. But that doesn't mean that there won't be torture.

Evie Baby (That Baby Collection Book #1) by OneDream1LifeOneLove

*complete & edited* Please don't go by my writing on this book, I was fresh on this platform and had no idea what I was doing Eve Madison tries to do everything she can to help her struggling parents. She works and goes to school with her best friend, her sister from another mister, Dream. She puts her family and priorities first, she never thought about love. That is until Damien Westwood comes along. Damien and his three brothers owns Atlanta's number one auto body shop. He's been heartbroken but is willing to try again for his mom sake. When he happens to see Eve in the shop with his younger brother, he wants her and won't stop til he has her. She wants Daminen, but her priorities are her main concern. He fell hard for his Evie baby, and no one fucks with what's his. Follow Damien and Eve as they face a crazy ex and a stalker who just doesn't get it. * "I'm going through a lot right now, with family and all. There wouldn't be any time. That's not a good start for a relationship." She said watching him for his reaction. "Who says there's a certain way to start a relationship? I understand that family comes first, even education. But if I could see or talk to you for an hour at least, I'll be fine with that." She was still unsure, "I still don't know.. why me though?" "Cause I want you. I claimed you the moment I saw you." "I'm not an object." "You're not, but believe me beautiful when I say you're mine. And I always get what I want." * Same thing as my other stories, there is very heavy sexual tension and content. I don't drag out feelings for two people who care for each other. This is a fictional story so some info may not be accurate. Enjoy!

The Unimaginable Truth by Snowflake9451

I know I'm not the best writer but, here it goes. Dylan is a normal young man in a different world. He has his family, friends, a good home, and anything he could ask for. He would think of himself as smart, creative, and fun. But, all of that changed when he met HER. Aisling isn't your ordinary young woman. She has friends, family, and a good home too. Which makes you wonder, why she is all alone. She was living her daily routine like she had for the past years. But, all of that changed, when HE came along. You might say that these two probably have nothing in common. Except, a dark secret from the past that ties them together. (P. S. This isn't your typical "love story") By the way, if you have a Bible of some sort, feel free to look up the scriptures in the story. For example, before reading the story, read Psalms 83: 18. (Psalms 82: 19 in some versions). Please vote and comment, I would like to know what you think. I DO NOT OWN PICTURES OR VIDEOS, IF ANY.

This story will make more sense if you have read the other two sequence of 'I don't believe' series. If you haven't then no worries it won't be a much problem.
