Tainted Heart: Norwood Series Book 1

Ramon Norwood, a 28-year-old self-made mogul, is a man driven by only two things: money and family. Having left his small hometown of Norwood as an adult, he has expanded his empire across various sectors, including law, real estate, and technology. But amidst his success, he remains uninterested in love-his focus is solely on building his future.

That is, until Kristin Davis, a fiery 25-year-old sports analyst with a passionate, no-nonsense approach to life, unexpectedly enters his world. Kristin, known for her sharp mind and fierce commentary on professional athletes, is a woman who rarely lets her emotions get in the way of her career.

After one particularly heated exchange, Kristin is placed on a two-week leave from her job to cool off, only to find herself booking a vacation at a luxury resort-a decision that will soon turn her world upside down. Upon arriving at the resort, Kristin discovers that the owner of the place is none other than Ramon Norwood.

What starts as an inconvenient and awkward encounter slowly transforms into something much more complicated. Kristin's walls begin to crack as she faces a surprising emotional connection with the man who represents everything she's spent years avoiding. As her view on love begins to shift, Kristin must decide: can she build a future with someone like Ramon, or will her past and career always come first?

Ramon, too, is faced with a dilemma. He's worked hard to distance himself from the idea of love, believing that romantic entanglements will only hinder his ambition. But as he spends more time with Kristin, he finds himself questioning everything he once believed about relationships, loyalty, and what truly matters.

Can two people so different-one devoted to his empire, the other to her career-find common ground and build a future together, or will their pasts and professional ambitions keep them from ever truly connecting?

Assurance

"You Raven are to be my wife whether you like it or not" Toni huskily whispered into the enraged woman's ear.
"No, I will not! Over my dead body will that happen" Raven screamed in frustration glaring at him.
"Why are you fighting me on this? Don't you know how much I love you?" Toni says in desperation trying to induce the little lady's displeasure with him.
Raven scoffed at his choice of words 'love'
"Antonio you know that you don't do the thing called love so stop trying to make me give in to you." She told him with so much venom dripping out of each word since that is her intention on conveying it to Toni.
"Please Raven I always loved you and I'm still in love with you. I rejected your confession years ago because I knew that I wasn't good enough for you, I still to this day regret the fact that I foolishly turned you down" Toni looked at her with a pained expression pleading with an adamant Raven.
"I can't Toni I don't want to get hurt" Raven gazes into his eyes and saw the apparent melancholy look didn't belong on his face.
As she was about to speak again "We are not good toge-" Toni cuts her off mid-sentence kissing her ever so passionately.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Raven Jones is an independent 25 years old business woman and a world-class chef, she had no  time for anyone's bullshit, always minds her own business because they don't and can't benefit her well being.
She wears her confidence like it's her favorite pair of shoes.

Now what do you think will happen when she is dragged into an arranged marriage with the Man that once broke her heart. The question is: "How do you mend a broken heart?" Will she give him a chance or resist and reject him like he once did to her...


Til The Sun Comes UP

"Listen, Love, we need to end  things."

Listening to my boyfriend
I feel the bond between us shatter into fragments that tear my heart apart.

The familiar heaviness covers my chest, making it hard to breathe
I fight the panic and sadness as I try to figure out what in the hell just happened.

I wondered how it's  possible to be a failure at love and
left with a broken heart and lingering memories of
betrayal

Again.


What I Wish You Knew | ꪜ

"Finding happiness is like a needle in a haystack. That doesn't change the fact that the needle is still there. It's just up to you to put in the work and find it." His hand slid over mine and in his grasp, he gently closed my hand into a fist, "and when you do, never let it go."

When life handed Hayley Peterson lemons, she threw them away. It had nothing to do with whether she liked them or not. It was solely because they were rotten the moment they fell into her hands. At the age of sixteen, one is expected to be as normal as any ordinary teenager. Enjoying life, living to the fullest whilst making many memories and mistakes along the way.

But for Hayley, her life was anything but ordinary. Being young, funny and beautiful never once made up for the angry demons lurking beneath Hayley's skin. Demons who persistently dragged her through the mud of depression, anger, anxiety, and loneliness.

She may be in constant mental torment unable to find happiness where she hoped to, but happiness comes in many forms, places and people like Parker Nguyen, the guy who not only observed those in dire need of happiness but willingly gave to others what he barely had for himself.

When life shoves the two into the other's open arms, they both make it their duty to somehow build a wall of happiness around their inner turmoils. A girl who experienced nothing but pain and regret in her early childhood and a boy who sought out to fix damaged people when he was damaged himself.

Will Parker and Hayley be able to help one another in ways others have failed to and confront their demons head-on? Or will they both succumb to a future of never-ending darkness?

As time ticks by, Hayley documents the passing days of her life, hoping that the people she loves would understand the thoughts that never made it past her lips.

"Look: vampires are traditionally afraid of religious symbols. It's a well-known fact. If you're any kind of vampire, you should be outta here by now, not just sitting there drinking your coffee."

"I'm not actually drinking it yet. Some idiot keeps interrupting me by shoving religious symbols in my face."

Claude held up an ornate brass cross with a macabre Jesus Christ in the throes of death, designed to repel any nearby vampires.

"Oh look," I said dryly, "the idiot's back."

BY THE BLOOD (URBAN)

Blood is thicker than water- a phrase many have heard and implemented in their everyday lives. For the Knighton brothers, it was more than just a phrase. For them it was a motto, their creed. It meant that nobody, friend or love interest, was above the familial bonds- by blood they were bound together and an outsider would be laid to rest before they could even attempt to break up the ties that held the family together. When troubling events occur in what is deemed to be their city-Memphis, Tennessee-they find themselves questioning the very words they hold so dear:

 Is blood really thicker than water?

Not a Bestseller

Ben never wanted to write a book. Being autistic, troubled, and the fourth child? It just doesn't sound like a very interesting story. That doesn't stop his therapist, Dr. White, from giving Ben a blank journal. And when Dr. White's mysterious (and slightly annoying) daughter, Julia White, blackmails Ben into joining the therapy program, Ben finds he has no choice but to testify.

So, he starts at the beginning: the day he stole a water bottle. From there, it only seems right to discuss his entrance into the group therapy program, his obsession with chocolate chip waffles, and the ever-crippled relationships with his parents and brothers. As Ben navigates his own life and works tirelessly to get himself out of therapy, self-discovery backfires in the worst way imaginable: he may not want to leave.

Not a Bestseller is a YA contemporary absurdist novel about a young boy burdened by society's labels. In a Great Gatsby meets Wimpy Kid style, it tackles its story head-on with healthy doses of sarcasm and a lot of love.
