Chicklit Stories

Two Floors Down isn't romance. ‎ ‎It's desire under pressure. ‎ ‎It's temptation disguised as accident. ‎ ‎It's guilt in silk sheets, a secret that breathes beside you at night and asks two visceral questions: ‎ ‎If the person you're falling for left their soul in your hands... would you read it? And if you did, would you ever admit it? ‎ ‎This is not a love story built on fate. ‎It is built on trespass. On hunger. ‎On silence that grows claws. ‎ ‎Two Floors Down is impossible to put down because it knows something most romances refuse to confess: ‎Love is not ruined by betrayal. ‎It is sharpened by it. ‎ ‎It began with a misdelivered package. ‎And a transgression she told herself she would undo tomorrow.

Aria Bennett has always stayed in the background. She's quiet, focused, and used to being overlooked. Especially by Cole Maddox, her twin brother's best friend and the school's popular quarterback. But everything starts to shift when Cole begins noticing her too. Study sessions turn into something more. Glances linger. And the hoodie she wears starts to feel like a secret only they understand. Their connection feels real. It also feels completely off limits. But what happens when she falls for the one person she's not supposed to fall for? A slow burn on and off the field. *** I'm currently editing some chapters so I've changed the status to ongoing. I've also changed the cover and it's way better now. I'm not gonna unpublish chapters for anyone who's already read it because they're not major changes. I might add a new chapter/s towards the end as I'm thinking of making this into a 3 part series and maybe a spin-off but we'll see how this story does. Thank you for reading!!

Julie Leong always does as she's told. Studies hard, works late shifts at the family restaurant, and carefully lays out a plan for a well paying career. But with an impossible-to-please dad and annoyingly perfect sister, Julie can't seem to ever catch a break. Everything changes one stormy night, when an awkward food delivery for Callen Sterling, mysterious and handsome CEO of Sterling Studios, leads to the offer of a lifetime, and her perfect plan goes out the window. What starts out as a harmless side gig quickly grows into so much more as they find themselves impossibly drawn to each other. She learns of anonymous threats Callen has been receiving - and they're only getting worse. But it takes a lot more than a few death threats to scare the determined (and stubborn) Julie away. Her life becomes more and more entangled with Callen's, until she ultimately finds herself torn between two paths. Misery in exchange for money and success, or risking it all for a chance at love and happiness.

FBI Special Agent Isobel Hurley has faced down cartels, terrorists, and cold-blooded killers without flinching. So when she's assigned an undercover protection detail for the spoiled, reckless son of a powerful billionaire-someone the agency believes is the next target of a ruthless syndicate-she shrugs it off as routine babysitting. Easiest mission of her career, she thinks. Pose as his new personal security consultant, keep the idiot alive, collect intel on the threats closing in. In and out in a few weeks. Then she meets Xavier Donovan. Charming. Arrogant. Far too intelligent for his own good-and dangerously unpredictable. What starts as a simple protection op spirals into something far darker: whispered threats that come from inside the family estate, encrypted messages only Xavier seems to understand, and a growing suspicion that the real danger isn't just targeting him-it's using him as bait. Every instinct screams that Xavier is hiding something explosive. Every late-night confrontation pulls Isobel deeper into a web of secrets, lies, and forbidden attraction she can't afford. The closer she gets, the more she realizes the mission isn't about saving him. It's about surviving him. And as the syndicate's shadow tightens around them both, Isobel begins to wonder the most terrifying question of all: What if the biggest threat isn't the enemy outside... but the man she's sworn to protect?
