Jersey Coleman has faced many hardships. From being raised in a brothel to becoming a dope-fiend. She finally gets her life on the right path until she is faced with a difficult challenge.

"Tell me you don't want that," his darkened eyes clashed with her dazed ones, "Say it, and we'll stop right now. Tell me, and I'll go." Silence hung in the air, the distant hum of passing cars and crickets fading into the night. "Cause I have every intention of making you my wife, the mother of my kids, my everything. I want that. I want you. Understand?" Her eyes welled up, and her lips trembled as she swallowed hard, then nodded quickly, "I want that too." "That's what I thought, baby." ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ Cerise Rowan liked to keep things simple. Her days were a steady loop of sleep, eat, study, repeat. She told herself she valued comfort, though in truth, change terrified her. With change came anxiety, and her mind, already a delicate balance, struggled to cope. Her favorite S-words: sleep, solitude, and snacks, were enough to keep her "mild" disorder in check. Until another one entered her life. Well... two. If you count sex. ♡ Saint Novak lived by two rules: stay comfortable and take each day as it came. With his intimidating presence and (mostly) emotionless exterior, he wasn't exactly easy to get to know. He didn't waste time on dead ends, keeping his life decisively organized. People and things included. But Saint's problems were far from "mild". For years, he believed he had nothing to lose. Now, he's learning what it means to have goals, to want more, and to keep what's important to him close. So what happens when he walks into his parlor and is greeted by a new face? A very pretty face. One that stirs desires he didn't even know he had. Well, one taste of her is more than enough to set a few more goals.

"Where is it?" I grit, looking down at him. When he doesn't respond, I stand in front of the screen to block his view and force him to look at me. "You're so childish, you know that?" I analyse with a squint. My eyes trail behind him, to the centre of his sheets on the bed and my phone lights up with a notification. He must've caught it too because he reaches back before I can even react and pushes the phone into the waistband of his shorts. "I was actually gonna give it back to you at the door then you cursed at me, so now I changed my mind." I release the biggest self controlling sigh, step forward and grab at the neck of his shirt, threateningly. "Leo do not play with me, I will reach in and take it. No hesitation." His eyes meet mine and he chuckles before grabbing my wrists with his large hands and speedily flipping me so I land with my back flat against the bed with him now towering over me, his knees beside my thighs on the mattress. "Go on then," He smirks. "Take it." •~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~• Leonardo Blanc and Noémie Moreau have known each other longer than they can both remember. They grew up together, attended the same schools as each other, spent summer vacations together and even almost shared the same birthday as each other. Yet neither could stand the other. Every last interaction between them is either an argument, a fight or a petty game that Noémie could never win. Leo has always known exactly just how to get under Noémie's skin, despite having a huge secret soft spot for her. Still, Noémie hates that he's got her all figured out. Yet, after so many years...she still can't read him.

Kahlani never meant to fall for Mateo, the Hispanic football star who only dates within his race. She was never supposed to matter. Just the best friend in the background. The secret. The girl he reaches for in the dark and ignores in public. One night changes everything. She gives him her first time. He gives her lies, broken promises, and just enough attention to keep her coming back. Every. Single. Time. Even after he hurts her, even after he chooses someone else, she always returns. Because loving Mateo is an addiction disguised as romance and she's hooked. Ever wondered what it's like to be the other woman? To crave someone who will never truly be yours? To stay, knowing you're not the priority, but hoping he'll eventually change? This isn't a love story. It's obsession, manipulation, and destruction wrapped up in desire.

This story is raw, messy, toxic and emotionally intense. You'll laugh, cry, get angry, feel hope, and feel heartbreak. So please read at your own discretion. With that being said... let's dive in. I hope you enjoy every twisted moment.🚨

𝗥𝗛𝗘𝗔 𝗟𝗢𝗥𝗘 was raised to be a shadow. Sit straight, smile when you're spoken to, don't make people repeat themselves and don't you dare draw attention and learn to be grateful they let the deaf daughter stay in the room at all. In Northvalle, perfection is currency. Her sister, Alina, is priceless. Rhea is the problem they keep just out of frame.. .. She's had her eyes on 𝗘𝗭𝗥𝗔 𝗠𝗔𝗥𝗞𝗢𝗩 longer than she'll ever admit. The city's quiet threat. Fixer, the man you call when you're out of options and ready to sell whatever's left of your soul. He doesn't play about what's tied to his name. He doesn't repeat himself and when you keep him waiting too long, he collects more than debt. He's invited into the Lore empire for one reason.. Alina. A marriage on paper. An alliance at the table.
