Book one of six in the Chaotic Hearts series. BOOKS MUST BE READ IN ORDER. - RIVER MINTZ: Listen, I need you to hear me out. I'm a little bit impulsive, and I don't think anything through enough before I'm implementing my next plan of action. And it's because of my impulsiveness that I even ended up in this heartbreaking situation. See, I was falsely engaged to a man-a straight man named Louis-who did some awful things in his lifetime. You don't even want to know. But my parents had sent me to college and told me to discover life outside my wealth. I needed money. But when I found out what Louis had done, I immediately left. I didn't want anything to do with him. He was a vile human being. I should have known better. However, I didn't want my parents to know that I was someone's pet, so while they knew nothing about Louis, I also never told them we broke things off out of fear of my Mother's hound nose discovering what I'd done to make money during college. It's been five months since I ended things with him, and my Mom begged me to come home for Christmas this year and to bring my fiancé. And I couldn't very well say we were no longer together out of thin air, right? I had to figure something out, or my Mom would know I was lying. So, why did my ex-boyfriend, Seven Knight, appear in Chicago when he lived in Vermont, last I heard? Why did he agree so easily? Why was he so willing to go along with this? Mom found out my "fiancé" is Seven, and now she is begging us to get married on Christmas! What do I do?! We haven't seen or spoken in years because we... had to discover life outside of one another. But what I never told him? I never wanted that. And now, I have to pretend we're happily together, and it's confusing my brain. I still love him. I crave him. I need him. But I have doubt that he feels the same. It's been too long. I don't have much to offer. How could he still want me? Ha. What a fun Christmas holiday this will be, right?

"But friends don't sleep together." Ethan's chest tightened. His voice shook. Daniel smirked, his tone mocking. "Then let's not call it friendship. Let's call it what it is. Friends with benefits."

"So... where were you, little kitty?" His voice was quiet, too quiet... each word slicing through the air as he flipped through the papers without even looking up. "I-I was..." My voice broke, barely a whisper. Something about his calm made him even scarier. He finally set the papers aside, eyes lifting to meet mine. "You look nervous." The corner of his mouth twitched.. not quite a smile. "Don't be. I don't hurt good boys." That tone... gentle, dangerous, patient. "Now," he said, leaning back in his chair, gaze steady. "Come here." I hesitated, taking one step forward. His eyes sharpened. "Crawl." ●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●● Started - 13th February 2025 Ended - ???

In 2013 I published my final chapter of "The Boss," a story about Emerson Lane and his boss, Lafayette Jeff. With over two million reads, this story easily became my most popular work yet. From the lovably goofy Emerson to the stoic and handsome Lafayette, my readers were enthralled with this book. Even after taking time away from Wattpad, these characters of mine were not forgotten. They were so not forgotten that I just had to give them the story they deserve. Welcome to The Boss & The Assistant - The Rewritten Edition of The Boss. This is an updated version of "The Boss" that still tells the story of Emerson and Lafayette, but I have since put my Master's in Creative Writing degree to use and honed in my craft for this story. The iconic cast of characters are more fleshed out and have greater depth to them. The plot holes, the grammar, the inconsistencies of my teenage writing days have been cleaned up to bring to you a complete, whole story that I hope you will enjoy. And the best part? The Boss & The Assistant will bring to you chapters written by both Emerson and Lafayette (hence the title change). Get in the heads of both characters as they navigate depression, trauma, growth, and love. Fall in love with Emerson and Lafayette by reading this rewritten edition, The Boss & The Assistant, today!

Book 1 of 3 "I wouldn't have pegged him for that type of man." my voice echoed softly, while someone else spoke up, amused. "you haven't pegged me at all, actually." His words made me blush softly. I was too tired to be extremely flustered, but I still had enough energy to process the meaning behind it. "oh...hello. I'm glad to see you're home." (Yes, I know men don't peg each other. They'll make it work. Somehow. They're creative.) ___________________________________ Read the book to get more content like this, I'm much too lazy to write a description. Besides, the master will be mad if I spend too much time on this, instead of developing plot. 🫠 Back to the basement for me, darlings. See you soon! 💋

It was supposed to be the perfect proposal. Cole Rivers had the ring, the rooftop reservation, and The Weeknd songs queued for post dessert vibes. Three years of love, laughter, and late night ramen with Natalia-all leading to this one moment. But instead of "yes," he got: "Cole, meet my fiancé... Dominic." Not just any Dominic. Dominic Crane. GraveTech CEO. Power-suited perfection. Cole's boss. And apparently... Natalia's upgrade. Cue spiral. Champagne-fueled heartbreak. A blackout night with 18-year-old scotch. One very illegal attempt to hack Dominic's company out of spite. But fate and a brutal corporate shake-up-have other plans. Now Cole is stuck working side-by-side with the man who shattered his relationship... and maybe something else he's not ready to name. Because Dominic? He's infuriating. Arrogant. Cold. Also: stupidly attractive. Unfairly competent. And magnetic in a way that short-circuits every defense Cole thought he had. What starts as sabotage turns into banter. Banter turns into tension. And heat turns into late nights, stolen glances, and lines that don't stay drawn for long. But can Cole really fall for the man who broke him? And if he does... who's the real traitor, Dominic or his own heart? Love was never part of the code. But some bugs don't want to be fixed. --- Top Rankings 🏆 1 - #Secretrelationship (10/09/25) 🏆 1 - #Sci-fi Fantasy (16/09/25) 🏆 1 - #Action-Thriller (23/09/25) 🏆 1 - #Tech (24/10/25) 🏆 1 - #boyxboy (02/11/25) 🏆 1 - #Original (09/11/25)
