----- In serious need of revision! ----- Wanna-be journalist Kate Santoro would do anything for the scoop. Anything. Including finding her way into an underground club exclusive to only those in the Genovese mafia and the beautiful women they employee. What could be more perfect? She would stick to the shadows, snap a few videos, and write the biggest story New York has ever seen, therein making her a legend! Easy as pie. Until she gets found. A series of blatant lies and lucky breaks later and she is mistaken to be one of the workers underneath. While many might be terrified of this predicament Kate couldn't be more excited. The freedom to roam the area and talk to the members of the infamous brotherhood will leave no rock unturned. All she has to do is keep her cover until the night is over and the workers go home. What a fantastic position she is in! There are just two problems. One being him. Alessio. The Don, the Godfather, the Capo di tutti capi (the boss of bosses) who has taken a keen interest in Kate. Even that is something she could probably handle for one night. Except problem number two. They don't leave. Not at the end of the night, the end of the week, or even the end of the month. Alessio's interest in Kate threatens to expose her, something she would surely die from. He knows she doesn't belong but it's not as though she could have just waltzed in, right? By the time Kate realizes that not even the greatest scoop is worth the price, she is in far too deep to call it quits now. ~~~Praise for When The Sun Goes Down~~~ Natasha427: "It was so captivating that I may or may not have spent the last several hours holed up in my room frantically scrolling down to read more.

Silent, unforgiving and strikingly gorgeous, Rylan Parker is a cold-hearted businessman. An intimidating CEO, perfectly fitted in tailored suits and with a soft side reserved only for his little daughter. He can't afford to fall for anyone and definitely not for the blue-eyed blonde he met at the diner. But when his grandfather's will demands he gets himself a wife, a contract-marriage seems to be the only option. Living under the same roof with the woman he is undeniably attracted to can't be that hard! He just had to make sure of one thing. He does not fall for his sensitive little wife. But that was never really a choice, was it? * * * * Sweet, charming and affectionate, Elena Smith is mostly an emotional mess. Between working two jobs and worrying about her father's medical bills, she has no time for relationships. But when the hot, arrogant billionaire puts forward a proposition, she's left to make a choice, a difficult one. The fact that he is ridiculously attractive can't be a reason enough for Elena to put her signature on a marriage-contract with a complete stranger. But her father?....Perhaps. What's two years anyways? Just a little too much time to come out of this with her heart unscathed.

*2024 Watty Awards WINNER* All Vivienne Clarke wanted was to plan the best wedding of the season -- but of course, her libido gets in the way. ***** Socialite Violet Levine's *dream wedding in St. Tropez* must go off without a hitch, and Vivienne is the wedding planner behind the scenes to ensure that. She has every detail nailed down, has visited the castle-like venue dozens of times, met with vendors, and prepared everything to a T. But then Vivienne realizes the hot, filthy rich man she slept with the night before the wedding events begin is none other than Violet's older brother, the hotel mogul Axel Levine, who is paying for the whole shebang -- meaning her attraction to this man might risk her career. And when an out-of-the-blue storm threatens to flood the area where the Villa des Tropiques is located, she finds herself juggling problems beyond her control, and constantly teased by Axel's ever appealing -- and forbidden -- body. The more issues pile up on her plate, the more she becomes absolutely infatuated with Axel -- though he's the one signing her checks, and she most definitely cannot be seen frolicking with him. Between their sexual tension, and the looming storm about to literally rain on Violet's perfect day, how can Vivienne protect her reputation without losing her sanity -- and her underwear?
