Contempt by A. Zavarelli is now live!
Before the world knew me as a rock god, I was just the angry boy who stole her heart.
She was a good girl.
The forbidden fruit I wasn't meant to taste.
Our stars were crossed, and fate had doomed us from the start.
She was promised to someone else.
I had her secret smiles.
Moments stolen in dark corners.
But I couldn't have her future.
Destiny tore us apart, and all that remained was the ghost of her memory.
When she died, I did too.
But when I catch a glimpse of her five years later, alive and well, that love turns to hate as the bitter truth emerges.
She left me.
She lied.
And now, I'm going to make her pay.

The Coldest Winter by Brittainy Cherry is now live!
I didn’t know he was forbidden until after our one night stand…
I met Milo Corti during his self-destructive era, and he met me at the beginning of mine. That night when we crossed paths at a college party, we only had one goal: to feel good during our hell storms.
After we parted ways, I’d planned never to see him again. That was until I showed up for my first day as a student-teacher and found him sitting right there before me. Now I was forced to cross paths with the person meant to be nothing more than a fading memory.
The more time we spent together, the more drawn I felt toward him. When his world shifted for the worst, I couldn’t help but to lean in closer.
I’d always done the right thing. For the first time ever, I wanted to do something very wrong. I wanted to fall in love with the one person who was off-limits.
The problem with falling for something forbidden? Once you began to descend, you were destined to crash and burn.

If I had to sum up this story using only one word, it would be Beautiful. Through the heartbreak and the sadness, we were able to see the beauty in something despite the pain.
Starlet has always been the good girl and she knows exactly what she wants. Vision board and all. When her carefully crafted plans suddenly goes up in flames, she decides to throw caution to the wind for one night and give in to something wrong for one night. But that one night stand quickly turns into the surprise of a lifetime when she sees him in a different setting.
For the past year, Milo has been drowning himself in everything and he has no plans of slowing down. Call it reckless or trying to avoid something that is painfully deep and no amount of trying to numb it is going to help him heal. But for one night, someone changed that for him and whether he likes it or not, life from here on out will never be the same.
I had this idea in my head of how this story was going to play out and I was completely wrong about nearly everything!! Both characters had their fair share of suffering and heartbreak even though at the beginning I truly questioned if they were right for each other, that quickly went away. I saw it in the little things, the nervous looks, the timid smiles and their love for having love.
If you're familiar with this author then you know that she's going to give you all the feels for this story. You're going to be angry at times, you're going to hurt and you're going to walk away knowing that you've read a story that's touched your heart.

THE SACRIFICE by USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Shantel Tessier is NOW LIVE!!
.jpg)
A Lord is to marry after he graduates from Barrington University, an elite college for the rich. A Lady’s job is to help him fit into a world unaware of his secret society. The Lord does not get to choose who he spends the rest of his life with. But there is always an exception to the rule. And I just so happen to be his.
I VOW. YOU VOW. WE VOW.
I was to wed a Lord of my parents’ choosing. Wealth can’t buy you everything, or I would have had freedom years ago. Instead, my strict parents made sure I lived a dull life in a mansion resembling a prison.
But on my wedding day, I was handed over to another man—an even more ruthless Lord that my family hated.
Tyson Riley Crawford only wanted me for his revenge. I’m nothing more than a debt to be paid. I didn’t have a say in the matter. So when I said my vows before the congregation, I knew I’d break them. Consequences be damned.
Too bad I underestimated my husband and didn’t realize he was more determined to punish me than I was to succeed at escaping. He’ll make me choke on those words I used to bind myself to him.
Yet even he couldn’t have seen what our future held. Ultimately, we’re all just pawns in a game that none of us can win unless you’re willing to pay the ultimate sacrifice … and even that may not be enough.

The Summer We Fell quickly became one of those stories that you know is going to hurt to a certain degree. How emotional was this going to be? Was I going to lose myself in the process of reading this because these characters were going to test me? Or will I walk away knowing that I read a complex and emotional romance that was worth it?
The one thing that Juliet has only ever wanted was to be loved and feel safe. After going through a rough childhood and finding a boy that changed her life for the better, Juliet is more than content with her life. That is until when one summer changed the entire course of her life and led her to the one person that's going to be a driving force for her for years to come.
I have to admit that regardless of a few issues I had with this story, I was invested in it and I wanted to see what was going to happen with these characters. I really liked the alternation between the past and present because we got to see the mistakes that were made that led them to the now. What I wanted and was expecting from this story was more interaction between the main characters. A lot of things felt rushed in a sense we never truly got to see one on one time between them because there was always an interruption. I also wanted more than one pov because I felt like it was necessary to have that and to see the different emotions from the hero.
Aside from that, this was a heavy heartbreaking read at times but it showed you the journey of a woman who went through a lot to get her happily ever after her own way.
