*Coming soon from W by Wattpad*

When beauty meets her beast-a modern retelling of a classic story with one major twist...this story isn't for sweet little girls. 

'Keep the Blarcum name strong.'

That is LORD VAN BLARCUM's duty and his curse. All his life he's been groomed to carry on the Blarcum legacy. He lives under his mother's rule, and he does as she pleases to protect the one thing he loves most: his manor.

He doesn't care for the legacy or the empire. He prefers his isolated life on the Hebridean Isle of Lewis. His manor and his horses are all he needs.

Until she walks into his life...

AMANI BLAKE wants adventure. She's dreamt of seeing the rolling hills of the Highlands since she was a child, but she's stuck. She let her mother's fears keep her in the same place she's always been.

After an explosive encounter with her employer, Amani has enough. She quits her job and takes her life into her own hands. A lucky search on LinkedIn has her accepting a position as an assistant to a Lord in Stornoway, Scotland.

Will Lord Blarcum learn to love something more than his manor and be the adventure Amani didn't know she was looking for? 

Or will duty stand in the way of affairs of the heart?

She yearned for a world not ruled by the darkness and the demons awaiting her inside it... For nearly eighteen years, Adaira Young has been able to hide from the monsters that plague her small village.

"Sex?" He chuckled, shaking his head "does it look like I have trouble getting laid? No not sex. To marry me, purely for appearances of course" A blank stare flashed across my face, "I'm sorry, what?" ••• It's a classic tale with a whole new twist. He's the boy who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and she's the girl who doesn't put up with anyone's shit. So naturally, he wants the one thing he can't have, her. Lennox is an aspiring oncologist by day, and a freelance escort by night. Medical school is expensive, and as a young woman in her prime she would be garnering her fair-share of one night stands anyways. Might as well turn a profit. Beckham, your typical reckless trust-fund baby. A playboy, a hothead, an all-around hot mess. He needs to grow up, or he risks losing everything. As the heir to an internationally acclaimed company marrying a doctor would be the perfect way to bring legitimacy not only to his reputation but his secure his place as CEO. There's a thousand reasons it could all go wrong, but what if by some strange stroke of luck... It all goes right?

For she is about to come face-to-face with the enigmatic Duke of Castro, Giovanni Arcardi. Despite his rule of never falling in love, Giovanni finds himself drawn to Sophie and determined to fight his own fears. But will the ruthless Duke be able to conquer his fears or will it become too great an obstacle? The unexpected news is; she's expecting. And now he's becoming a father. _________________________________ "Why were you mad at him?" she inquired, trailing behind me. "Why? Because I don't share, Strega," I responded, my tone laced with possessiveness. "I would tear apart anyone who dares to come near you," I added, my voice seething with anger. "Why? I mean, it's not like we have something going on," she muttered, clearly taken aback. "I don't care. I simply do not share what belongs to me," I declared, my fury intensifying. "I'm not an object or a possession, Gio. I will-" "Enough! You are mine, and that is final," I growled, cutting her off abruptly. ---------------- _________________________________________________ INNOCENT BRIDES, RUTHLESS BILLIONAIRES #1 Tracythebelle❤️ Started ||June 2023|| #1 Blackamerican #1 Yonder #1 Blacklead

He kept on staring at me but I ignored him, at least I tried to. He was sitting right beside me and although I was looking at the board I still could glimpse his form facing me, he seemed to be looking at my lips. I wasn't able to take it any more. I slowly turned to him, he was indeed staring at my lips. "What??" I ask feeling self cautious as I fought the thought of wiping off my mouth. He slowly licked his lips and said, " nothing" as he shook his head " your lips ... they just look so kissable" he added slowly and calmly after a while causing my heart to overreact, my eyes went wide and my mouth to turn into a forbidden smile. "What?" I asked as I tried to give him a weird look but I couldn't stop smiling, the forbidden smile seemed to be taking over my entire face, slowly but surely. This book is in the point of view (P.O.V) of the main character (first person) with an exception of chapter 1 which is told by the narrator (second person) { Book 2 - Revealing Secrets https://my.w.tt/bF5lujvGo2 } When this book was reviewed by yours truly it was summed up to 50 chapters. Sorry if you find some of the chapters a bit too short . Lol.
