❝ If you want my heart, be aware of the spades. ❞


Picture this: life as a deck of cards. 

Matthew Clarke, the Golden Boy with golden locks and conceit in every inch of his green eyes, is the Jack of Diamonds, because his smile shines bright like one; and also because real ones are rare.

Aiden Stuart is the King of Spades, of course, because that smirk of his? Yeah, it can kill. But his words? Those will cut you open and let you bleed. But hey, maybe you'll like it since he'll do it with a wink and a cigarette. Everyone loves bad boys, right?

So, what could possibly bring these two archenemies together?
Yeah, you guessed it. The end of the world. Kidding! Me. (But, really, it's the same thing.)

And why? Because they make a bet to see who's going to be the first to kiss me and break my heart (I KNOW, cliché, right?). The thing is, I'm not someone they should have messed with. Because, my friends, I'm the Queen of Hearts.

And maybe, just maybe, what I really want is a Joker.

The Bad Boy Thinks I'm Cute by Center_of_Fiction

"They always say that a bad boy is like a fire and he needs snow to tame him and calm him down. Some may call me the snow to his fire. But that's not the case. If only they knew the truth...I'm the gasoline to his fire. I haven't tamed anything. I let his flames spread. I've just allowed him to spread his flames to me. And I love the burn. " ~ Aubrey Summers is peeved when her friend decides to date her rival's friend, Jacob. Now she is forced to spend time with the only guy in school she could do without, Parker Adams. But as circumstances continue on, Aubrey finds herself slowly falling for the guy. She is scared she'll get hurt, but who can stop it? Once you've fallen in love, you can't just fall out of it... Maybe it's a good thing Avril made Aubrey with her and her boyfriend on dates with Parker, or it's the cause of her destruction. Parker is a bad boy after all.

Trouble by MelanieSargsian

• Friends to enemies to lovers • Dark themes and gothic vibes • Situations some readers might find offensive • Spicy romance with dark elements *** Never did I expect to find Trouble in New York (oh, the irony of it). But BANG and Trouble aka Connor Black, otherwise known as my childhood best friend, who I had a huge crush on once upon a time, is back in my life. Everyone says he's dark, dangerous, and a total bully. Which sounds nothing like the kid that loved watching me dance ballet in my ridiculously pink tutu dress. We left each other with broken hearts and unfulfilled promises, and now he's back in my life, threatening to destroy me. Hahaha... You know what's funnier than him claiming he wants to ruin me? Me knowing he can, and still loving EVERY second of it. He doesn't give me answers, promises, or hope...he doesn't give me anything, but when he looks at me with those green eyes of his, I know I can really make him fall in love with me. The question is, can I destroy his walls before he destroys me? 🏆Latest Achievement #1 in LoveHate #1 in BadBoyGoodGirl #1 in BFFLove #6 in BadBoyInLove

I Made A Bet With The Bad Boy ✔️ by fantasticallymeg_

He stares right at me, "You eat like a pig." "You look like a pig." I rolled my eyes, continuing to eat. "A pretty damn sexy pig." He winked. "You might be a sexy pig, but you talk like a donkey." "Are you agreeing that I'm sexy?" He narrowed his eyes, smirking. "No...I didn't mean it like that. I just..." I blushed.

The Badass Nerd by random_quills

"What the hell did you do!?" I heard a feminine voice behind me. I groaned and turned around to meet a very angry face. I have never seen a girl this pissed before and honestly speaking, I am a little bit afraid. "She knew what she was getting into. Everyone knows I am player and I never stick to one girl." I shrugged and turned around to walk away. I didn't even take one step when I felt a firm hand on my t-shirt. She took a fist full of my shirt and turned me around so I was facing her. She then held my collar. Damn, she is almost the same height as me and if I would have been any normal guy, I would be terrified of her. "You don't treat girls like trash, asshole. She has feelings, she is not some toy that you got bored from after playing for a while. Apologize to her." She said through gritted teeth pointing towards Leah who was crying her eyes out. I noticed the crowd that started forming around us. I shrugged her hand away from my t-shirt and glared at her. "I will not apologize to anyone." I said slowly through gritted teeth. She is starting to piss me off. No one clashes me and no one stands against me. Even though I am new here, everyone knows that. I saw her eyes go blank and before I could duck, her fist made contact with my face and I felt sharp pain coursing through my nose. I held my nose tight and felt warm liquid flowing to my lips. Olivia Claire is a 16 year old high scholar. She is a fighter who never took anyone's shit and is famous for it. She mostly minds her own business occasionally helping people that might need her. Carter Grayson is a 16 year old guy recently transferred to Olivia's high school. Tall, handsome guy with lean figure, hazel eyes, brown hair and smile to die for. He has been known to be a player in his last high school and he plans on continuing that identity. So, what happens when a typical bad boy clashes with a not-so-nerd bad girl.

The Bad Girl Attack by shesaid_hesaid

"You're mine. And I don't think you wanna go against that." Her eyes dangerously darkened. He gulped, and nodded a yes. --- Everybody has a story. And sometimes, these stories go unnoticed and untold. Even if it's that hard-core and determined badass girl from the school or the one who stays hidden in the shadows with books piled up right in front of him. In a normal high school filled with players, jocks, Heartbreakers and badass personalities, a boy with blue eyes, gel soaked brown hair and adorable face gets claimed by the most feared girl in leather jackets. Lucas Clark was not your average teenage boy. Mean it, he was not. All around you could see boys of his age probably flirting, playing games, hanging out with friends and throwing parties like their life depended on them. But he was a nerd. He was a straight A student. And she was the bad girl of the school, Claire Cooper. When one meet turns out to be Claire claiming him hers, he is left devastated and knowing that not to mess with "The Claire Cooper", Lucas has no option but to give in. And when the complications arise, they are shattered but they find themselves in a better place than when he felt like he was practically being attacked by the bad girl of the school. #55 in teenfic #1 in badass #1 in goodboy #1 in badgirlgoodboy #2 in nerd #1 in good #15 in heartbreak #16 in teen

When the Montgomery brothers-brooding Cole and charming Jamie-move to town, they turn Maddy's world upside down. Cole is everything Maddy should avoid.

It All Started With A Dare by Rachelle470

Are you mine? by EmmJayWriting

We've all heard about 'the main character'. The type of person who lives through the most dramatic and improbable situations, and finds the kind of epic romance you only see in works of fiction. Which makes you think about how unrealistic love like that is. I used to think the same thing until I met him. Until I met 'the bad boy' that, as it turns out, wasn't that bad at all, just simply...a boy. A boy with an easy smile, a charming personality and looks so enticing that I couldn't keep my eyes off of him if I tried. A boy whose shoulders were starting to slump with the weight of his past and his family. A boy who believed that the only way to survive was by putting a lock on his heart and chaining it down to a place so deep inside of him that no one could ever reach it again. A boy who, for reasons I'll never comprehend, placed the key inside my palm and didn't shy away when I tried to free his hidden heart from its restraints. A boy who made me the main character of my own story. A story I never want to forget, and which begged to be put on paper. This is that story. ~~~ #1 love triangle 8/26/2019 #1 teen romance 11/4/2019 #1 mystory 7/27/2020 #1 teen drama 9/9/2020 #1 goodgirl 9/12/2020 Cover by @alexandramar1e Contains swearing and mature language.

A Player's Game by Alexisss1212

"Why do you care if I kiss other girls? We're not together, we're friends" he stated swallowing his emotions. "You're right, why should I care? Like you said we're friends" I got more angry with each word that came out of my mouth. "You know what? Go makeout with any girl you want, I don't care" I said as I started to walk away. I felt his hand grip my wrist and pull me back against the lockers. His hands cupped my face and the next thing I know his lips were smashed up against mine. *********************************************************************************************************Stella Jones didn't believe in love, only lust. After one guy broke her heart, she swore to never fall for someone again until she graduates, she was done with high school boys. She's kept her promise to herself until a new guy starts at her school, Logan Carter, but does he have a promise too? Will he get her to live her life? Will she break her promise? Will he break his?

Underage by megaannicolee

I feel the breath of air on the back of my neck. My limbs freeze and my breath catches in my throat. The male hands grab me by the hips. I can't move. His lips are by my ear, grazing the skin, his teeth tugging on my earlobe. His breath is hot on my skin, his lips moving down to my neck. My head tilts slightly. I shake my head. He doesn't have a weapon, I do. I turn in his grip, raising my bat. He catches the swing with one hand. He doesn't even flinch. "I wouldn't do that baby." His voice is like velvet, filling up the room. His lips are back on my neck, his tongue trails over the skin. The voice, the lips, are familiar. "You might mess up my pretty face." "Pretty face, my ass." I let the bat drop to the floor in-between the two of us. I should've known. "What are you doing here?" "Besides scaring you shitless?" "You didn't-" "Don't lie, I saw what you did to those poor hangers." *** It's a game of cat and dog. A game that's lasted four years. A game that expires in three short months. It's a battle of wits, of sarcasm, of teasing one liners, of sloppy kisses that may lead to more but nothing passed physical. It's a game with no rules. And they seem to be breaking them all. Thea Shaw and Ethan Michaels have a complicated relationship. One that neither wants to come to an end. But with college nearing and feelings developing what will come of their little game? He promises her one last summer of underage fun; parties, sunsets, long talks, sweet kisses, and no talk of college until it's time to leave. There are only two ways this summer can end. Either in each other's arms or the breaking of their hearts. #4 in New Adult [COMPLETED]
