Berkley and Dean had been best friends since they were in diapers. They were so close they could finish each other's sentences and had never spent more than a week apart in their entire lives. They grew up together because their Dads were best friends and co-owners of a fishing boat company they had started up together after college. Dean had always looked out for Berkley and tried to protect her from getting hurt by guys that had bad intentions, and she trusted him more than anyone else in the world. That's why, when they went off to college together and she decided she wanted to experience sex for the first time, she couldn't imagine doing it with anyone else but him. She wanted her first time to be with someone special, someone that meant a lot to her that she could trust. Dean refused at first because he was afraid it would mess up their friendship, but he eventually caved when he found out that refusing meant she was going to do it with a guy that he hated instead. He was so protective of her that he finally gave in. The deal was, it was just going to be one time and they'd go back to being just friends after, like it never happened. The problem was, they didn't think through all the consequences that came along with having sex with your best friend. **** Warning!

Nova Akhran and Julian Maxwell can't stand each other. At all. As CEOs of rivaling Fortune 500 companies, they've been at each other's throats for long enough. They want nothing to do with each other and are incapable of ever seeing eye to eye on anything. However, things take a turn when a frustrating ultimatum threatens their coveted CEO positions. Forced to scramble and protect everything they've worked for, they're cornered with a desperately volatile solution: holy matrimony. But sharing temporary and meaningless vows shouldn't be a problem since it's mutually beneficial. Right? Because when one really and truly wants something, they must take risks and sacrifices along the way...even if some of those risks are costly. If these two knew what they were really getting into from the start, maybe things would've been different. Because they're surely in for a ride when fate has a cruel sense of humor. After all, you can't avoid what is inevitable in matters of the heart. *FEATURED on Wattpad's Dangerous Love reading list (3/19/20) *FEATURED on Wattpad's New Adult reading list (4/1/20) *Ranked #59 in #AdultFiction (4/6/20) *Ranked #146 in #Business (5/2/20) *Ranked #10 in #Rivalry (1/3/20) *Ranked #3 in #EnemiesToLovers (12/19/19) *Ranked #84 in ChickLit (12/20/19) Copyright 2019© by RadiantLove_ Cover credit: @pollywritess

Everett Holden had sworn to live the rest of his life a single man, but his plans are disrupted when he finds himself sharing an apartment with his best friend's ex--the one woman he detests with every fiber of his being yet simultaneously desires. Standalone in the My Brother's Best Friend. *** Twenty-two-year-old Everett Holden has always had his life figured out. Being the product of wealthy parents, he knows loneliness better than most. He's grown accustomed to being the broody, miserable man desperate for love with impenetrable walls. However, when his best friend requests a favor, he finds himself sharing an apartment with the one girl he both loathes and desires above all else, the one girl he can't have. Emery Clark isn't one to give up. She's persevered through every obstacle life has thrown her and refuses to accept defeat. That is, until, she's given an eviction notice from her apartment and is forced to live with none other than Everett Holden, her ex's crotchety, grumpy best friend with an attitude licensed to kill. As she spends more time in his company, she gradually comes to a realization. Perhaps his rude behavior towards her isn't due to her allegedly taking away his closest friend, but rather because his closest friend snatched her away from him. *** Weekly Updates on Fridays.
