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.

Worth the Risk
August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))Complete
