Sharp Objects

Johnny Simmons thrives on competition—whether in the pool, in playful bets, or in charming his way through life. He’s used to being in control, but when Jane Shepherd enters his world, she proves to be an unexpected challenge. Assigned to his study group, Jane is sharp, unfiltered, and unimpressed by his usual charm. Their first real interaction is filled with witty banter, subtle tension, and a clash of personalities that leaves Johnny both frustrated and intrigued. A fiercely competitive swimmer meets his match in a sharp-witted girl who challenges him at every turn, winning unexpected bets and forcing him to rethink what it truly means to win—not just in competition, but in love and life. Jenny & Jay - Volume 1 is the first installment in a five-novel New Adult series, following the lives of five childhood friends—Johnny Simmons, Paul, Brian, Aaron, and Daryl—all competitive swimmers bound by their deep friendship and relentless drive to win. While romance plays a central role, this is not a simple on-again, off-again love story; instead, the series explores the evolving relationships, rivalries, and personal growth of these young men as they navigate life, love, and ambition.

In a world where laughter and chaos collide, meet our hilarious, mischievous, and dirt-poor teenager, who just so happens to be the younger brother of a high-ranking conglomerate. Despite his sharp intellect, he's utterly clueless when it comes to love, especially with a girl who harbors feelings for him. His endearing innocence will leave you feeling excited, irritated, and downright annoyed all at once. Initially timid and fainthearted, this young man's journey to strength is spurred on by his fierce older sister, whose skills rival those of the legendary Yoo Leejin—strong, agile, and exceptionally trained. Together, they navigate the treacherous waters of gang rivalries and thuggish challenges, proving that family ties can forge unbreakable bonds. What can you expect from this rollercoaster of a story?

He married her to destroy her. Lucian Crane, Alpha King of the Ironfang Dominion, has spent seven years turning grief into a weapon. He believes Nyx Calloway took everything from him. So he takes her, forces her to the altar, puts her inside his house, and plans to strip her down until there is nothing left worth saving. Nyx has survived worse than him. Barely. She arrives with nothing but a sharp mouth and a wolf who has been silent for years. She knows what he wants. She knows what he plans. What she does not know is why her wolf stirs the moment she sees him, or why the most dangerous man she has ever faced looks at her like he is running out of reasons to hate her. The bond does not care about vengeance. It does not care about grief. It only knows one thing. “Mine, Mate.” Some marriages are prisons. Some are wars. This one… is both. And neither of them will survive it unchanged.

On the sixth year of our marking anniversary, I travel a distance of 3000 miles just so I can tell my mate, Damon Shadow, that we're finally having a pup. But at the doorway of the Overseas Alliance HQ, I witness him doing something that he's never done for me in the past six years. Damon can be seen kneeling next to another she-wolf. He takes her mud-covered boots off for her while looking so reverent that one would think he was serving the Moon Goddess herself. Meanwhile, I just stand in the heavy downpour while clutching an ultrasound report and a pair of baby socks, which I have yet to finish knitting. Those things are instantly drenched in the rain. It's then that Damon turns to face me. The way he looks at me is as though he's glaring at a Rogue who has accidentally intruded the forbidden grounds. "Get lost, Selena." At that moment, my wolf howls loudly within my mind. Sharp pain tears through my abdomen at the same time.

Riley Ashford never wanted a pack, a mate, or a crown. Exiled for her wild defiance, she learned to survive on her own terms: free, reckless, and untamed. Until the night she is captured by Kael, the ruthless King of Lycans—an ancient predator who rules not just with power, but with fear. Kael has never shown mercy, never been tempted by women who only wanted his throne. Too docile, too boring, too predictable. But Riley is none of those things. She’s chaos wrapped in sharp teeth and sass, a wolf who dares to snarl in the face of a Lycan. Forced into Kael’s world, Riley refuses to kneel, turning every humiliation into a battlefield of wit and defiance. But the more she fights, the more Kael finds himself drawn into the storm he swore he didn’t need. Between deadly trials, court politics, and dangerous rivals who’d kill Riley just to get close to the throne, one truth becomes undeniable: 🔥 She might be his prisoner. She might even be his downfall. But she will never be anything less than his equal. And the Lycan King has never met a queen like her.

"Master, do you miss this apprentice?" Lips painted in bright red ticked up in a sharp smile. Her eyes were a pool of dark red, like a swirl of the finest wine. One jaded hand in his throat, nails slightly digging in the skin there, the other was on his cheek carefully caressing. The clashing of both gestures were confusing, but Rion's mind only provided one instinctual response; to run away as far as possible. ----- Rion Ren, one of the strongest sword masters in the world, had to make a difficult decision to hand over his apprentice, Ruby, to the Demon Master when Ruby's real identity as a descendant of Demon Sovereign was revealed. Three years later, Ruby who had successfully taken the reign of the Demon Realm, came back to take revenge on her master that had betrayed and abandoned her in the hand of cruel demons. Rion swore on his life as a sword master, he only wanted to protect those who were precious to him, but how did it manage to turn the whole world into chaos? How would Rion face his own apprentice in a battle between life and death?!

He smelled like danger. He looked like power. He made Ari's instincts scream one thing—run. But it was already too late. Ari just wanted a normal college life. For a timid bunny hybrid who startles at loud sounds and avoids eye contact like it’s a sport, "normal" means flying under the radar, keeping his ears tucked under hoodies, and staying far away from alphas who smell like trouble. But trouble finds him anyway—in the form of Thorn, a tiger-panther hybrid with a stare sharp enough to slice, and an aura so intense it shuts Ari's brain off completely. Thorn doesn’t ask. He doesn’t beg. He claims. And from the moment he catches Ari’s scent, he decides one thing: Mine. Now Ari’s peaceful life is spiraling into something else. Something darker. Something hungrier. Thorn is everywhere—on campus, in his dreams, always one step away from baring his fangs. But there’s something worse than being hunted by a predator. Wanting one.

My boyfriend has depression. To help cure him, I pass on the opportunity for a recital abroad. Instead, I accept commercial gigs so I can rake in the cash. After one performance, I see my boyfriend holding hands with a woman who looks like me in a private room. He wears a sharp suit and smiles so brightly that he doesn't even look ill. The people around him cheer and tease him. "You really are different with your true love back in the country. When are you two going to make things official?" "I heard you'd been dating another woman for seven years, though. Do you love her?" Charles Foster smiles indifferently. "I was just having some fun with her. Only an idiot like her would take me seriously." I sob with devastation while hiding behind a door. Suddenly, I feel like a fool for spending seven years with him. I call my mentor, who suggested that I take part in the international piano competition. "I will take part in the competition."

Rachel gave everything to her husband. Her love. Her kidney. Her silence and her all. So when she finally regained her hearing, she never expected the first thing she’d hear would be her husband’s betrayal Nathan, tangled in another woman’s arms, calling her a burden he was tired of carrying.

Years later, Rachel returns not as the woman he discarded, but as Belira Williams, the hidden heiress of DroneCode, the most powerful tech empire in the world. Richer, colder, and untouchable. This time, she isn’t here to beg for any reason. She’s here to ruin him for good.

He once called her useless, now she’s the woman standing between him and everything he thought he owned. And this time… she’s not leaving quietly.

After the incident that almost landed her in jail, Jenna’s mother ships her off to the countryside to live with her father and his new family that she barely knows. But distance doesn’t guarantee repentance, not when trouble comes in the form of two dangerously familiar faces. She never meant to catch the attention of the town’s most notorious boys… but she did. First comes Alec Lardin: her grumpy, infuriating biker stepbrother who lives just across the hall. Their relationship starts with resentment, sharp words, and silent warfare. But proximity has a way of exposing cracks and forcing them to see the parts of each other they weren’t ready to face. Somewhere between hatred and attraction, a line they should never cross begins to blur. And the consequences could be disastrous, something in the line of losing friendships and destroying a family. Please note: This is a dark romance, because the main characters have dark tendencies. Their enmity goes beyond banters and glares; they might physically hurt each other. Also, this is a slow-burn novel, please order patience before you proceed. That being said, enjoy Alec and Jenna's crazy-forbidden love story.
