Love story, steamy romance, drama at every turn, a woman finding herself. #adultfiction #contemporaryromance SOFIA: Book 1 of the Romanoverse Series (SAMPLE of Book). NOTE: Sofia cheats on her husband... only to find out how cheated out of love she'd been. "Have you never thought about kissing me?" He was still, lips hung suspended without so much as a twitch. Of course, he hadn't. I spun around-his hand slapped against my hip, stopping my escape. "Only every second since the moment I saw you waiting in the hall." A steamy, contemporary romance. Sofia Romano, eldest sister of the tight-knit Romano family, was one to be envied. A posh society darling since birth, proudly sitting atop the highest pedestal. And she was perfectly content, until now. It's the holiday season and she's left alone, forced to face the cracks in her picture perfect life-the husband who's never there, the home that's always empty, and the heart that never had a place in her marriage. All this culminates when she has a chance encounter with her brother's new neighbor. Eric Walker had just moved to New York. A country guy exploring the city for his next book. He had a zest for life, no cares about what others thought, and a heart that leapt out of his chest the second he saw Sofia Romano waiting in his hall. First impressions go awry; second impressions fail just as miserably, but as they say, third time's the charm. That country boy with a heart of gold is about to show this uptight city girl how great love can truly be, and challenge her to fight for her happiness. {Contains cursing and spice} The Romanoverse series is a spin-off of Summer Leigh's Incidental Fate series, and focuses on the lives of the Romano siblings. © 2020 Summer Leigh All rights reserved.

When she enrolls in a senior course taught by the young, dark and mysterious Dr. Kayden Hall, she finds herself uncharacteristically intrigued by his research into sexual deviance. As Layla's academic fascination extends into the bedroom, her erotic discoveries begin to reveal more about the complex man she's experimenting with. Her inner psychologist is determined to figure him out but he isn't going to let her into his psyche that easily. A not-so-cliché BDSM Romance by Ami. Mature content and lots of steam.

18+ / Very Mature "Please, this is like cliche-central. With a kinky twist." ††† I step under the hot stream of water, soaking my hair, and take a deep breathe. I try and clear my mind, focusing on the way the water feels hitting my body. I turn around, opening my eyes, only to shout out a curse and stumble back. Emma is directly in front of me, taking off her tank top, eyes glued to my body. I hadn't shut the curtains, thinking no one would be in here, and I didn't know if I was happy or mad I did that. I stood there speechless as her small hands grasped the bottom of her sports bra. I inhaled sharply when she pulled it up and over her head, exposing her breasts. They jiggled slightly as she tossed her clothes to the side, and I found my heart rate quickening at an alarming rate. "W-what are you doing?" I breathe out as she pulls her leggings down her body, leaving her in just a thong. "Showering." Emma tells me as if it's obvious.
