"now, when we kiss, i have anger issues" OLIVIA MURPHY needs a fresh start. With her father in prison for a crime he claims he didn't commit and everyone at her old station acting like she aided and abetted, Liv can think of nothing better than getting the hell out of Philadelphia, and Los Angeles is calling her name. She's paired with an LAPD legend, Sergeant Athena Grant, a no-nonsense field sergeant who has only ever had one partner before and isn't happy to gain a mouthy twenty-eight year old as her next. She's sure Athena hates her and will do anything to get her out of her hair, even setting her up with a vulnerable widower in her new husband's firefighting station. The last thing Liv wants in L.A. is a new boyfriend to inevitably let her down, but damn, he's got a great ass- and what's a little bit of fun? EDDIE DIAZ needs a fresher start. Only a few months after his soon-to-be ex-wife's death and his family is still reeling.

"I've never done this before," She said, hands covering her exposed breast in the dark room. The only light that had been shining was coming from the parted curtains, a small stream of moonlight glistening her skin. He stepped forward, hands going to uncover her hidden breasts. Was it the eye contact? The firmness of his hand? How safe he made her feel? "You're not just anything. I want to learn your body, I want to learn your weak spots. I want to learn what makes you happy, what makes you cry but now? What makes you cum." - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - They say that opposites attract, but what happens when being too different is becoming too much? | sdothoney. a trevante rhodes fanfic. book one. cover by @TanonTales

You know when you were younger and they told you that you could be whoever you wished to be? You could grow up and become whatever you set your mind and heart upon? Yep, well I'm here to tell you that's a complete load of bull. So as I stared across at my fiancé, our hands conjoined as he read his vows- it dawned on me. Getting married at age 23 to a self centered lawyer who viewed me as more of his little prodigé than his actually wife was not what I wanted. Becoming a defense attorney at a record age to a company own by said husband that I'll never be taken seriously in was definitely not what I wanted. And making my parents happy by completely shutting down any hopes and dreams I've ever had. was absolutely not what I wanted. "Nope." I shook my head, glancing between the priest and Jake, my soon-to-be, as I yanked my hands out of his. "W-what?" He stuttered, looking back at me mortified along with everyone else in the chapel. "Fuck this." I shook my head, as I lifted my dress and quickly made my way back down the isle that was littered with people I'd never seen before. So, few hours later and I'm on the first flight to Maine. Why? Well, shit happens. *this book is unedited
