[18 + COMPLETED] Three men, two centuries, one house. S U M M E R 2 0 2 1 Rosecrest Manor has been in Asher's family for generations, but he's done dealing with the headache of a property. He just needs to get his soon-to-be ex-wife on board with the plan to sell the place. So Asher takes her there, intent on saying goodbye to the country mansion. But they soon get lost in a rabbit hole of writings by a nineteenth-century woman, Lady Whitley. And as they spend the day reading, Asher realizes that it is harder to let go of history than he thought. S U M M E R 1 8 6 8 Simon Pearce has been looking forward to Lord and Lady Trotten's summer house party for months. His only interest in the event is that Lady Whitley Ash will be in attendance, and he is determined to make her his. Unfortunately for him, however, Lady Whitley is an avid writer who only wants to get close to Simon's mother-the renowned gossip columnist, Madame Mischief. Not only that, but Lady Whitley keeps confusing Simon with his scheming, identical brother. Sawyer Pearce has most certainly not been looking forward to this ridiculous house party. He has no interest in affairs of the heart or large gatherings of people. But forced to attend, he devotes his summer to helping Simon woo the lady of his dreams. And he's also found the right partner to help him with it: Lady Whitley's sister, the equally unromantic and daring adventuress, Lady Blair Ash. But Sawyer is soon damned to admit that he might like his partner just a little too much. In the sizzling heat of summer, will either twin brother come out unscorched by the Ash sisters?

"He was a smoker. She asked him why. He said it was his slow suicide." - REVIEWS: "Slow Suicide is one of the best books that I've read. A beautiful story of two strangers that befriend each other and it soon became love. Shows that you can brighten someone's day with just a simple greeting or maybe getting to know them. Cig and Rainy are a beautiful pair that brings light into the darkness and turns night into day with their love story." -@Kaybae1212 "A touching story of true love told through small, sweet encounters. So many twists and turns that you will never see coming. A beautiful and safe love story overall that will leave you in tears! (⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐)" -@Squirtle301 "Slow Suicide will make your emotions spin like the twists and turns of this story. Each chapter will make you wonder what will happen next. As a person who's not a fan of reading romance, this was definitely out of this world like no other. Filled with despair, romance, heartbreak, and twists, you would be questioning life even more. This is truly a must read. The author has truly captured my attention throughout the entire story, as every chapter is like a beautiful structure built in with the words that help me envision what love can evolve in." -@Hope-Mist - Book 1 in the "Pure Love Tales" series. Highest rank: #8 in Short Story.
