Aubrey Carter was busy chasing her dreams, eyes fixed firmly on the future. In the midst of her studies and part-time jobs, she never expected that caring for a spirited six-year-old girl would lead her to something far more complicated - and far more real. As Lila's part-time nanny, Aubrey found herself quietly drawn to the girl's father, Nathaniel Hart: a successful architect, a single dad, and the very definition of complicated. His quiet strength and determination fascinated her, but so did the walls he kept tightly closed. Years later, fate brought them back together. Aubrey, now a rising star in the world of urban planning, and Nathaniel, who has built his architectural firm from scratch, find themselves working side by side. But old feelings linger, and Nathaniel's doubts - about their age difference, about trusting again - threaten to pull them apart before they even get close. Can Aubrey prove that love isn't about numbers on a calendar? Can Nathaniel open his heart to a second chance - before it's too late?

"You see him as an heir of your empire and not as a family member. All you care about is the inheritance and not the child. If all you want is an heir then why not marry someone and produce as many heirs as you want." She stopped as she narrowed her eyes at him. And then with a mocking expression she continued, "Or is it that you are unable to Re.Pro.Duce??" seeing the angry flush on his face her heart smiled with satisfaction. But before she could celebrate her little victory against him he pulled her from her wrist and she collided with his hard chest. Snaking an arm around her waist he held her tightly as she struggled in his hold. "Don't play with fire, Ms Lilly Jones or don't complain to me later if you end up getting burned." "I've never hated anyone as much as I hate you." she spitted. "The feelings are mutual then, sweetheart." he smiled. _______________ He married her to fulfil a promise he had made long ago.

I beg to differ that.", I sassed and got out of his grip ready to move out of the room when he pulled me by my elbow and the next second I was pushed on the visitor's chair. He trapped me completely by keeping his palms on the arms of the chair. "I tried to tell you patiently.", I scoffed at his words. Patience and he don't go in a single sentence. He gripped my chin making me look into his eyes."Now listen carefully Miss, I want you for my niece as her babysitter. Tell me how much you'll take and we can seal the deal." This time it was me who blinked once, twice and thrice. "But I don't want to work for you." See the reason was absolutely clear. I liked the kid since the moment I met her but I hated this man from the moment I gazed into his eyes. "How much?" I frowned."You really think your money can make everyone dance on your tips?" "1200 dollars a week." I rolled my eyes making him lean towards me." 1500?" "Make it 15000 and still I won't work for you.", I retorted and pushed him. I walked to the door and gave him one glance."Next time when you talk to me, make sure you keep all your richness aside. That's one thing that I never want to see you again, you self-centred CEO." "We shall see." . . . Brave but lonely. Passionate but sensitive. That's Arielle Summers. For everyone, Money, Assets and happiness may be supreme but to her, self-respect is prime.

Preview ******** "Don't provoke me Amy" He groaned, his eyes darting towards my lips. "ugh? Wha? - what did I do now?" I almost crocked as I wet my lips again. "This" He swooped down to capture my lips. It was not a gentle kiss. It was hard and passionate and I couldn't do anything but be melted. My core throbbed as my hands went around his neck to clench his hair. His heat engulfed me and just when I thought my knees will give away, suddenly everything went cold. "Wha-t huh?" A moment before we couldn't have enough of each other and now, he was standing away, near his huge window, staring at me. "Please leave Ms. Wilson" his voice was tart. I couldn't believe we were back to the last name basis. "How dare you?" I was furious. "Tone, Ms. Wilson" His lips were a thin line.

If Tobias didn't stop looking at me not only would my husband keep to his word, someone would send a bullet through his skull. *+*+* Scarlett Salvadore was to be married to a man she hated with all her heart to increase her father's power.

I woke up in the morning and felt the pain in a place I've never hurt before. I took a peek at my own body, and my mind went blank. My eyes found a man who was lying beside me, sleeping, and my mind brought me back to me all the crazy things that happened last night. My 2 years boyfriend dumped me, I was drunk and went to my hotel room alone. Someone climbed on me. To say that he was handsome is an understatement. If an angel could marry a devil, then I'm sure he was their son. But that was not the point! He came to me and kissed me. One thing led to another.. God! This guy took my virginity. And that was not the worst. Guess what! He was my new boss. I was his new executive assistant. To top it, my ex boyfriend accused my boss that he raped me. What should I do? Trust my ex boyfriend who just dumped me? Or.. trust my new boss who was sexy as hell (that's not the point, by the way) and the one who took my virginity?
