"That kiss of ours last week? That was just a taste of how amazing I could make you feel, Cassie." He kept eye contact with me as he spoke, not letting me look away and my throat bobbed. "Who said that kiss was any good?"He shrugged just as confident as ever. "You did. Body language is everything.""Wouldn't I have already called you if it was that amazing? Maybe you're not as good as you think you are, Zack."~*~*~Jaia's life was not what she expected it to be but, then again, who expected to be working as an assassin for the Italian mafia when they were a child? Adopted by the Capo at a young age, violence and bloodshed was all she'd ever known and that was just how she liked it.The mafia was her home, the only family she'd ever had and she would have done anything for them. That was until she was assigned her most dangerous mission yet: infiltrate MI5 as a recruit and earn their trust. As if that wasn't complicated enough, life had to throw in deceit, betrayal and a devilishly charming boy or two to give her the messiest mission imaginable.Surely nothing could go wrong. Right?~*~*~*contains mature language*…

Harper King is the girl who has it all. More fame than you could ever imagine, looks beyond compare and the job of a lifetime. What more could you want?Having taken the modelling world by storm, her name is on the tip of everyone's tongues. She's a public icon. A celebrity of the ages. The perfect girl living the perfect life. But immense media pressure and constant scrutiny from the public comes with a price even Harper can't afford. Even she won't be able to survive in this cutthroat industry unscathed. She's empty. She's damaged. She's broken. Maybe the perfect girl everyone knows isn't so perfect after all. Everyone has their secrets and Harper is no exception. Using modelling as an escape from her saddened past, she threw herself into the lion's cage head first and now it's much too late to turn back. But maybe all hope isn't lost. There might just be something that can make this life bearable. And that something - or rather someone - is Axel Knight.~*~*~…

"What are you doing here?" I ask but it comes out as a sob. I don't want him, or anyone for that matter, to see me like this. I'm a wreck. Wyatt doesn't seem to mind though. He softly brushes the remaining tears from my face with his thumb. "I saw you run out of the canteen, green eyes. I couldn't just leave you here to cry because that would go against the tutor code.""Tutor code?" I ask, puzzled. "Yes, the tutor code. It states that a student must make sure his tutor is never upset or crying and if he does ever find her like this it's his job to make her smile at any cost," he tells me. "You just made that up.""Maybe I did but that doesn't matter. Come on," he says, extending his hand out to me."Where are we going?""You'll see."~*~*~Aurora is a normal seventeen year old, happy and content with life. However, this all changes the day her boyfriend of two years, James, breaks up with her. Naturally, she's crushed. The icing on the cake is why he did it. Apparently she's 'too boring'. Determined to prove him wrong, she strikes a deal with the school's notorious bad boy, Wyatt King. She'll tutor him in maths if he teaches her to be reckless, fearless and careless. Can Aurora overcome the odds and do what she planned? Or perhaps someone will stop her on her mission to win over James.Maybe this isn't as easy as she thought it would be. Maybe she takes things a little too far. And just maybe making a deal with the bad boy isn't such a smart idea. ~*~*~*contains mature language*#9 in high school 20/02/19#1 in young love 14/03/19#2 in chicklit 27/03/19#1 in heartbreak 08/04/19#21 in teenfiction 26/08/20#10 in romance 26/08/20#1 in bad boy 02/04/21…

"But I don't have magic. That's why my parents sent me here. I'm powerless. I'm ordinary."~*~*~Imagine growing up in a world full of magic, being able to cast spells left and right, making your deepest desires come true. It sounds amazing, doesn't it? Like a fantasy, a dream come true. I hate to break it to you but that's unrealistic, untrue. The real world just isn't like that, for most people that is. There's the lucky few who are a part of that community, that live joyously in the magical realm, surrounded by magic every waking moment. That sounds fantastic, doesn't it? A living fairytale you could say. For most, yes. Then there's Luna. Luna, despite being involved in the magical realm, never belonged. She didn't have powers so was treated as an outcast, rejected by everyone including her own family. They shunned her and soon banished her from not just their home but the whole magical realm. Now she lives in the human world, going about her everyday life like an average person. She's left her previous life behind and that's just how she likes it. Unfortunately for her, you can't escape your past forever. No matter how much she protests, magic will always be a part of her life, hiding in the shadows, undetected but still there. All she wants to do is complete her final year of school without so many 'unusual' complications. As you're most likely aware, life never goes according to plan. Magic has always been a problem in her life and now it's back to haunt her. All that needs to be said is that she's not pleased. Can't the world just accept that she's ordinary? No, it can't. ~*~*~*contains mature language*…
