AN OPPOSITES ATTRACT ROMANCE WITH BITE!

****

'Do you feel that? That's the sound of an alive heart. I don't know what it is about you, Candice, but something inside me knows - or scratch that - demands, that if I saw more of you, maybe it would be beneficial.'

                                                                                      ****

Sweet-tempered London girl Candice Carroll has big dreams. When an ill-tempered young man bursts into her pastry chef father's modest bakery one day, she can't help but wonder what is the cause of his sour mood. She makes it her aim to bring some cheer and fun into his life.

Zachary Malone is used to having his own way. Whether that be with girls, drink or career ambitions. When he has his eye on something, he strikes bulls-eye. Unfortunately for him, Candice is someone he can't possess.

When a certain life-threatening incident occurs, can these two people from vastly different social backgrounds find common ground... and love in the bargain? 

Or will Candice's prejudices stop her from hitting the jackpot... 

[IMPORTANT NOTE: PLS DON'T READ THIS BOOK IF YOU'RE EASILY OFFENDED OR TRIGGERED BY MORALLY GREY CHARACTERS AND/OR YOU EXPECT FLAWLESS CHARACTERS. WRITING TAKES A LOT OF EFFORT. PLS DON'T START DISSING MY STORY OR ME, I WILL 🙄. BUT IF YOU'RE OK WITH CHARACTERS BEHAVING NAUGHTILY, WELCOME. LOL. ACCEPT IT FOR WHAT IT IS: FICTION. THANK YOU FOR READING! ]

Brody's Girl 2 by still_just_me
10 parts Ongoing Mature
To save her family's business, a small-town baker returns to a television competition that made her a national laughingstock, where her partner is the professional baseball player who broke her heart. After another disaster hits my poor bakery, I reluctantly return to the competition that made me a laughingstock on national television two years ago. The stress-charged challenges are the same nightmares I haven't missed but with a celebrity twist. My partner is not just a star pro baseball player...He's the boy who broke my heart. The boy who left me behind grew into the hottest man I've ever seen. I'm not 'Brody's girl' anymore, but the heat between us burns hotter than the ovens. Interest in us boosts the show's ratings, prompting the producers to request we fake falling for each other. We agree under the condition of securing our place in the final round, but Brody's eyes are on a different prize-me. When my flooded hotel room leaves us rooming together, pretending that all of my first-love feelings aren't returning crumbles under our sizzling chemistry. Just when our rekindled relationship seems too good to be true, Brody reveals how much he's behind our reconnection, and the realities of our different lives again threaten to tear us apart. 18+ for mature language and explicit content.

Office enemies fight for the same promotion, while resisting their growing chemistry. LAYLA masks her insecurities behind perfectionism. The goofy girl who loved flowers and cooking for her parents is now a workaholic and out of touch with herself. All she's able to focus on is to get promoted so that she has a chance to feel confident and earn her dad's long-awaited approval. LUCAS hides a heavy burden with charm and nonchalance. The boy who used to be nurturing and open now pretends to joke around without a care. What he doesn't share is that he might want that promotion to fulfill his own voids just like her. One thing leads to another, and the two find themselves in unprofessional settings where their masks slowly come off, showing how similar they are, and just how much they might need each other. "Loved this story. It had everything that makes a story amazing. Fuming hot chemistry. Believable flawed characters that changed and matured through chapters. " - loriblu2000 "This was just the kind of story I've been looking for. So cute and also realistic. I adored the characters and their banters sooo much." - draama__queen "I absolutely adore Layla and Lucas and and they are characterized so beautifully that it's almost impossible for them not to become instant favorites." - Wisal13 "I LOVE Layla's strong character, the strong female lead because it's literally so rare, especially on Wattpad, and I loved that the male lead, not once tried to show how MANLY he is and exert his power because of his insecurities, like in most books." - maddylewis998 "This book made me laugh , cry and did some other things too hehe.. This is one of the best rom-com books I've ever read I have to re-read again.. Lots of love" - jamsniee "Sooo I started reading this at 1am and finished at 10:30 am... and it was so fking worth it!

"Tell me. Why won't you tell me?" He asks and I look towards him slowly, "You didn't even talk to me until yesterday! I'm trying to make it so nobody notices me, Kingston. I don't need this." I say and he slowly turns my face towards him, closing my locker and pinning me up against it. "What if I need you?" He asks and I roll my eyes. "Nice one, Hamlet." I say, walking away from him. One of the perks of being short, easily get away from tall people. ❤︎ Kingston Brag is the blonde haired popular guy with baby blue eyes, he's the guy every girl wanted. Every. Single. One. Except for her... Summer Cynthia. She hides in the corners and under black hoodies to hide her scars and bruises, her bloody arms and cuts, she hides her life. But there is one person who is determined to know what happened to her. Kingston Brag. But he has a mission that he's running from. This book contains one sexual scene, lots of bad words, abuse, violence, all that jazz. If you don't want that don't read the book and comment how it's not appropriate or some crap like a mom. There are two lesbians, a gay man, and a bi mother, so don't freak out if you will I'd rather you not read. Also she's a walking contradiction, don't comment about it, I know. #1// badparents // November 18, 2019 #7//teendrama // February 21, 2020 #17//romance//May 08, 2020 #1//abandoned//March 29, 2021 #5//drama//May 14, 2021 #1//fiction//May 15, 2021 #1//popular//May 18, 2021 #1//chicklit//May 22, 2021 #2//highschool//February 20, 2023 #3//teen//February 20, 2023 #3//teenromance//fFebruary 20, 2023

"Here's the thing though . . ." He trails off thoughtfully and then he looks straight at me. His eyes are steely and that makes me realise the fundamental difference between the young Ryan and this Ryan. He's hardened now. The sweet boy I once knew is probably still in there somewhere but life eventually got to him and he had to toughen up. "I need someone I can rely on. I don't want to take a person on who just decides it's too much hassle a few days or weeks in and just . . . Ghosts me." He finishes. There's a definite challenge there. He's not just talking about the job. He's getting a dig in there about the way I disappeared out of his life. As well as implying I'm generally unreliable . . . ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Iona Stewart is pretty sure she's having a premature midlife crisis. Recently made redundant, permanently unlucky in love, and back living with her parents, she's desperate for a change of scenery. So when an opportunity comes up to work in a hotel in the Highlands, it seems like fate has stepped in. The problem? Her new boss is Ryan Thorne. Her former friend. Her first crush.

When 20 year old Calliope Sweeney's recent boyfriend cheats on her the very same day she graduates from culinary school she decides to for once think of herself, and no one else, to finally take an impulsive step and leave her hometown she'd been attached to since she was 11 years old, to start her life somewhere else, to live away from all the men who'd cheated on her in the past, to find herself and live out her dream life. She vows to focus on her own self growth, and her new bakery the second she steps foot into Miami to live with her insanely rich brother, although she doesn't expect a brooding jerk, Emrhys Blackburn, to enter her life when she gets there, he was her antithesis, a curt and aloof yet undeniably handsome man who somehow makes the fake smile she always plasters on, real. She doesn't expect Rhys to make her feel a way she'd never felt with any other man before, to make her want something she should not want. The only tiny problems include that Calliope doesn't want to open her heart up to get hurt again, even if it does mean she might have a chance at true love, and another small factor included Rhys being her brother's best friend. *** #1 in forcedproximity #1 in opposite #1 in bakery #1 in secretdating #1 in bestfriendssister #1 in brooding #1 in grumpyxsunshine #1 in groveling #1 in jealous #1 in cute

"Look," he said sternly, his green eyes blazing with anger as he looked down at the small woman before him. The dark skin that covered her body made him want to reach out and lose himself completely in her beauty and those dark chocolate eyes weren't helping. He gave a frustrated sigh when she stared up at him with an innocence only she would have. "I don't like this anymore than you do, but for the time being you're going to have to stay with me, just until the chaos dies down." She crossed her perfectly toned arms across her small chest and frowned. "This isn't my fault," she huffed, "You lied to me. I - I didn't know you were famous!" - - - What was meant to be a simple one night stand just to show her friends that she wasn't always a goody two shoes ended up turning her life upside down thanks to a certain rockstar. But who said her life was perfect in the first place? Maybe this was what she needed to figure out who she really was. #18 in Chicklit 08/30/17 (I promise I love you guys) #15 in Chicklit 09/02/17 #14 in Chicklit 09/04/17 #12 in Chicklit 09/14/17 #9 in Chicklit 10/14/17 #5 in Chicklit 10/20/17 #175 in Romance 8/9/18 #130 in Romance 8/10/18 #24 in Romance 12/6/19
