Snow by jule009

After an apocalyptic event that thrusts the world into a new ice age, Calestia - a 17-year-old girl with a strong will - must learn to survive on a land infested with gangs, guns, and distrust. ***** Nobody knows what day it is anymore. Nobody knows the month, the day of the week...and the only way to tell time is by the slight change in the color of the sky from grey to black every twenty-four hours. If a day even is twenty-four hours anymore. The planet is dead. The people are dead. Snow falls down upon piles of bodies like the ash of a volcanic eruption. Except, the snow doesn't stop. It never does. It continues to fall and fall until you wonder if it is even possible for another flake to come down and land silently in your hair. But it does. They do. There are few survivors of what the remaining have started to call the end of the world. The Apocalypse. Few who are still brave or scared of death enough to face the torture that is living. I am one of those survivors. Book One of the Snow Series Highest ranking: #3 in Sci-Fi Watty's Shortlisted

Sin & Savior by Sabrina_Sharpe

Scarlett & Gianmarco are farther from traditional lovers than one galaxy is to the next. They are Travellers - Celestial beings of unimaginable power, thrust into a battle for the survival of their very universe they'd neither planned for, or intended. With that: the most powerful force in the known universe threatens to bring them closer together against their will, or separate them to their detriment: an unspeakable love that blooms beneath them both, their strengths of will denied. Scarlett, a strong-willed, argumentative FIBA world-championship Women's Basketball athlete, and Gianmarco - a high-profile private attorney, young, upright, and desperately hunting for the connections that will allow him the opportunity to start his own practice: under normal circumstances: these two age-gapped interests would never cross paths any way except accidentally. However, when Marco is hired as star-attorney of Ronel Sorgic - the enigmatic multi-millionaire genius Russian muralist hired to promote the Women's FIBA team for this year's championship: their paths are inextricably collided. What they didn't know is just exactly how life-changing their unanticipated meeting would become. Overwhelmed by a love they never knew could be, an even deeper hatred incapable of definition, a burning desire for distance, but an even more powerful pull to love and lust, and aligned with a cosmic purpose neither of them are qualified of bearing alone: Will they find the call of home, of one's soil, inseparable or the call of one's purpose inescapable?

Saving Scarlett- 18+ (PREVIEW) by luluwaters27

18+Explicit sexual scenes. Very graphic scenes of murder, rape, and drug use. Read at your own discretion. Scarlett Daniels grew up in the system after her parents died from a drug overdose when she was ten years old. Once she turned 18 years old, she ran from the state as fast as she could and started living her own life. Except it wasn't a grand life as she had once dreamed of. Her life now consisted of dancing on poles, answering to a man who tried to own her and living with a best friend who ends up murdered in their apartment. Duke Harvey had a decent childhood; his parents were loaded and he had everything he ever wanted. Until he attended college and the only woman he thought he could trust stabbed him in the back and showed up after several weeks of silence, in a body bag. His entire picture on life changed then and he put his rich-boy shoes away and became a homicide detective. He wanted bad men like the one that hurt his only love to pay for their sins. When Scarlett and Duke meet for the first time, sparks fly and clothes come off. And one chance meeting turns into another until her friend ends up murdered and Duke becomes the lead detective. Now Duke must protect Scarlett from the bad guy while protecting her from himself at the same time. But an insatiable lust blossom's between the two that neither expected to happen. Not only does Duke want to save Scarlett from a wicked and toxic life, but he secretly wants to save himself in the process. Love wasn't a word he used in his vocabulary but something about this woman makes him second guess everything he's believed about love until this point. But one question sticks out in his mind over everything else: is he even capable of love?
