That Girl
H.J. Bellus - 2014
My looks, personality, even my style is…simple. I’m the kind of a girl who easily disappears into the background becoming nothing but a nameless face. But that’s okay. I prefer it that way. It makes it easier to shed the skin of every identity I use to hide who I really am. While I drift from one town to the other, constantly looking over my shoulder I never allow anyone to get close…because I’m that girl. The girl with a tainted past. The girl who left everything behind, including her name so the devil won’t find her. The girl who never falls in love because she’s too busy running from an identity she vowed would never claim her again. See, I’m that girl. Hopeless. Ruined. Lost. Until one man manages to give me a name. Why? Because he wants to keep me.

It’s never bothered him that the main thing they’re interested in is his potential to make it big. Until now. Katie’s different.

Devil
Aubrey Sage - 2015
And not just for the bodies that I'm wrecking on the football field, but for p***y that I wreck in the bedroom. It wasn't always this way. A little more than 2 years ago, I was just your average guy but then I got into fatal car accident with a drunk driver. The doctors had pronounced me dead, but just as I was walking towards the white light, I was offered a deal by The Devil himself. He'd let me live and make all my wildest dreams come true. The one caveat? I could never love again. I'd have to break the heart of every single girl that would ever fall for me. It sounded easy enough at the time. But then Annie grew up, and damn... she's perfect. Annie: My stepbrother has changed. When he got out of the hospital, he got ripped–I mean really ripped. Now he's grown cocky, arrogant, and he has all these new tattoos. I never noticed him before, but he's shaped into the hottest guy I've ever seen. It's too bad he treats every woman like they're just a piece of meat. He's the star running back at UCLA, and he'll probably make it to to the NFL next year. He's that good. I hate that he's my stepbrother, but worst of all... I think I'm falling for him.
