This is a revamped version of Sugar Bowl. Now titled Thistle.
May was no stranger to tough times. Most of her life had been a struggle of one kind or another. Still every time she got knocked down she got right back up and kept her eyes on the future. That was before her brother--the only family May had left-- died and left her in a situation from her worst nightmares. A wanted fugitive she had no choice but to run and hide.
Everything Nick was--everything he knew--was destroyed with a simple news article. For a year, he endured the focus of the media for the sake of the people that meant the most in the world to him. Now that it had died down all he wants is to find a quiet place to rebuild the tattered pieces of his life.
Maybe it's fate or something more when Nick and May find each other and themselves at Thistle Grove.

Trust Me ?- COMPLETED
THIS BOOK IS UNDERGOING MAJOR REWRITING... READ AT YOUR OWN RISK A squeak left my mouth involuntarily as the hands scared me out of my daze. Turning, I came to face to face with a caramel tinted face. His tanned skin contrasts his green and honey colored eyes that were boring into mine. His hold on my waist disappeared and I took this opportunity to edge my way away from the window stopping against the wall to slow the pounding of my heart. What the... He's completely topless his jeans hanging so low off his hips. I swear if they were any lower I'd be looking at the top of his.. you know... The heat rushed through my cheeks at the thought of the word. He looked over at my face a smirk evident. Shit. I'm staring.. 'Like what you see?' Oh God.. Alexis is human. What else would she be? She's been read the fairytale stories and tucked in at night but it's all just fiction right? What will happen when she goes head to head with a boy who's not human at all? Oh.. Did I mention she is his mate? Lies, deception.. Love is a battlefield right?? 'May the odds be ever in your favour.' Trust me?Complete
Beneath the Layers
I have a secret. A secret that no-one besides my boyfriend, my mother and I know. A secret from my past which has me trapped in a relationship from hell. Refusing to tell a soul, I've kept it balled up inside for the past few years, trying to seem composed for the world while my reality was the complete opposite. I gave up on any hopes of a different life. A life where love and happiness existed. Alex, personally saw to it himself. He made sure it was drilled deep within my brain. This was the hand that life had dealt me. The life I learned to accept. Until the day I bumped into Nick. A gorgeous man who's haunted my thoughts and awakened my desires. A man, whose persistence turned my world upside down, more than it already was. The same man who also happened to be my boss and had a secret of his own. A secret that I couldn't decipher, even when it stood right in front of me. A secret that would blow me away. My name is Tara and this is my story. **NOTE: FOR MATURE READERS. THIS STORY CONTAINS SEXUAL SITUATIONS.**Complete
Deeper
In which I fall in love with my brother's best friend. ***** "Don't pretend like you don't feel anything." His voice is low, sending shivers down my spine. "What do you mean?" "You know damn well what I mean." "I don't know what you're talking about." I pretend to ignore him, flipping some pages in my book. "Come on. I have all these assignments waiting. Aren't you supposed to teach me tonight?" "It depends on what you want me to teach." He smirks, his voice sounding even more dangerous. ***** I thought that my brother was the most popular guy in school, but as soon as I step into my university life, I realize how wrong I was. Meet Vaughn Cooper, his best friend. The guy is the epitome of every girl's dream. Godlike handsome. The quarterback. He's got the looks, and he's got the brain. Come on, he's got the scholarship to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, while I have just barely passed the entrance examination after long years of struggle during high school. How could a guy who worked that hard and deserves nothing more but adoration be labeled as a bad boy? Yeah, the answer is simple. The moment we lock eyes, I realize something as I stare into those piercing, amber eyes. He's not every girl's dream. He's every girl's nightmare. In my case, MY nightmare. Calm down, heart. Our story hasn't even started. ***** THE SPENCERS SERIES BOOK #1 © 2020 Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved.

Perseverance
{18+ COMPLETED} "I don't understand why you won't tolerate the idea when we're both about the same no-strings fun." "Maybe because I just don't like you," I argue. "I don't believe you." Ellis' voice startles me, not just by how low and husky it is, but by the close proximity, his breath fanning over my bare neck. Turning around I inhale sharply at the sight of his pale blue eyes boring into mine, his hands resting on either side of my head against the metal, muscles tensed as he holds himself off of my body. His body is easily double the size of mine, a notion that makes my breath almost stop as he continues to hover there, his face angled down as I trail my eyes over his facial features. Without thinking my lips part, his own mirroring my actions, a sign that he's just as affected by me as I am by him. ---------------------------------------------------- Spin Off. Can be read as a STAND ALONE book... however, it makes more sense if you read The Test of Time first. Becky Gordon has no time for men. Although, she does tolerate some hours with them; non-stop one night stands, one time excursions in the gym locker rooms, swift daytime quickies. She's always been the same, ever since high school. Only once has she ever considered the possibility of something more, but that idea blew up in her face, proving to her that she's better off alone. Yet years later, the very man who made her doubt everything is back, catapulting into her life like never before. He's determined to make things right and won't take no for an answer. She can't deny the things he makes her feel, their similar humor and quick wit, the lust that pulses through her at the mere sight of him. But she's resisted his womanizer ways since high school, and what's really changed since then? Can Becky continue to resist Ellis Wakefield? Or does having a little bit of perseverance really pay off?Complete
