He let out a slight shrug, "Putting you to death was not what I was pointing towards. After all, it is merely the mouth that talks." I shivered, as I blinked naïvely, "Humph! A-And are there methods to silence this alone?" I huffed. He snapped his arrogant, coldly-heated gaze in my direction, and my insides clenched, as I noticed his deep, powerful ocean orbs snap down to my... lips. He then snapped his gaze away, fixing his right wrist watch as his deep, authoritative voice came: "Many, trust me." ~~~~~~~~ Fate has a weird hobby of slamming us right in the face about things we so took for granted. My name is Charlotte Thorne. Never claimed to be special, never cared about that. I grew up behind the pages of my books and in the different worlds of my love and romance novels. The world, as I knew it, consisted of my humble yet happy family, my studies, hobbies, friends and a potential perfect love story I was supposed to live. Now what happens when the world, as I knew it, turns out to be mostly a lie I've lived in for a long time? I conclude a simple golden rule: Love is pure, illogical crap. And so, long story short: with my nëw rules, a strict vow, a new family, fresh job, and on top of all those, a cold and arrogant Rickard Ellington Conway as my employer, guess I have a whole lot to deal with in this fresh new world of mine ─which'll get rather interesting... Book I of the Charlotte's Story Series. Trigger Warning: This story may contain scenes/content of violence, vulgar language, etc. that might be triggering to some audience.

HIGHEST RANK: #113 in ROMANCE ********** I looked across the room and saw him throwing daggers at me with his grey orbs. Satisfied with his reaction towards my little adventure, I moved more closer to the drunk guy, dancing with me. I looked at him again and this time his reaction was of pure, unadulterated fury. I smirked at him. And then my smirk slipped from my face as he stood up from his chair and started walking towards me with a purpose in his eyes. I moved out from the drunk guy's grasp and started moving, almost running, towards the exit. I was almost at the door when he caught my wrist and yanked me to his hard chest. "Don't play games without knowing the rules...Miss Brandt," he whispered in my ear. ********** Work! Work! Work! This is my life. At least since I started working at Winters Enterprises. Damon Winters, my boss, never feels any guilt for making me do three days of work in a single day. Oh, what am I talking about? He never feels anything, guilt is just one of them. But I believe in love. And this is where our thoughts contradict, because he believes in everything but love. Love is just a distraction for him. But for me, my life. ********** SUMMER'S WINTER IS THE FIRST BOOK IN THE NEW YORK SERIES.

He was a player in high school which makes sense due to his good looks and hilarious personality. He ended up being an English teacher at Oak Grove High School. When their paths meet, sparks fly. But can they keep the relationship a secret long enough for Charlotte to graduate? **warning: extremely cheesy
