Whimsical Perfection

Introduction

"Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind; and therefore, is winged Cupid painted blind."

Playwright and director Scarlett Lockewood has never felt the need to find love in the last twenty-eight years of her life. And thus, she has a reputation of being stubborn, arrogant and controlling – to the extent where it's now becoming difficult for the actors and her staff to work with her. She falls into serious trouble with the investors when the main lead of her next big play breaks the contract midway, stating the reason that he refuses to work with such a domineering personality.

Now enters thirty years old Isaac Williams, a kindred soul to Scarlett. He is next to none when it comes to being a stage actor, but that reputation comes with a price too. Isaac is as stubborn and domineering as Scarlett is, and was never known to submit to the demands of the directors.

Strangely, two extremely similar people in the same industry have never crossed paths until now, and the result won't be so good for either of them.

Forced to work together because of unforeseen circumstances, they constantly struggle for having power over each other, but how long will the hatred last?

Long enough to not get entangled together in the sheets of lust?

Or is lust the new name of true love these days?

As he came closer, pressing me further into the door, my breathing quickened. But I wasn't going to let him take all the satisfaction from this torture, so I attempted to keep a straight face.

"You're bonkers. This was a one time thing, how dare you come here asking for it again? You know it too, that this is bad for us."

But he paid no mind to my words, his tongue lazily grazing the shell of my ear, making me almost pounce on him.

"Baby, haven't you heard of the famous quote from Hamlet? 'There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.' "

Hi everyone! I'm back with my third romance novel!! I know its early, and I have other projects lined up, but this plot has been in my mind for too long and now I can't wait to see how it unfolds ;)

For all those who don't know, I've never really written a story like this, and have never ventured into the mature zone too. But with this book, I will be adding in some spice to my characters, and now that I have come out of my metaphorical shell, y'all can expect a lot more from me!!

Of course I know that it's not a compulsion for authors to write sex scenes if they don't feel comfortable, but this is a story which needs such scenes badly, and once you read it, you'll see what I mean :)

So, who all are excited for this book to start?? I sure am!!

Let's go meet our characters in the next chapter!!!
