"Would you like some coffee with your sugar?" "Sounds like something someone with a pH of 2 would say." "Diabetic." "Acidic base." "That'll be $3.20." *** Some people think your coffee order says a lot about you. Andie Bishop takes her coffee with three pumps of syrup, a double shot of espresso and just enough milk to not burn her tongue: sweet, but strong. Scott Tyler takes it black: no frills, no fuss. Straight-forward. A little bitter. Looking at it like that, it makes a lot of sense. But Scott could use a little more sweetness in his life, and it wouldn't hurt Andie to do things the easy way sometimes. Opposites attract alright, but sometimes the clash is too much. Can the bitter barista and the over-the-top undergrad make it work? Or are some things just... not meant to bean? Puns, coffee, puns about coffee and belligerent sexual tension - what more could you want? Caution: contents may be hot. [highest rank: #63 in humor]

"In the world of politics, nothing is as it seems; it's not black or white-it's a vague abyss of differing opinions." Fresh out of law school and unenthusiastic about the prospect of working until she dies, Alexis Winters gets an unexpected opportunity to experience the real workings of politics first-hand, not exactly the organised chaos she studied in school. Alex will learn about the benefit of a perfectly tailored suit and the danger of a perfectly pressed tie; merely a stainless façade, shielding us from the demoralizing truth. That doesn't mean there aren't some things she learnt about in school carried over into adult life, however, and they have all been carefully condensed and compiled into the toned body of one Lyon Vastia: hot as hell with the personality to match. Miss Winters meets her match as fire and ice collide in a tense battle across the office, bringing her to the end of her tether. But he's not her biggest problem anymore. Faced with the challenges that come with a job of high profile superiority, Alex threatens to expose the secrets that reside behind the walls of one of New York's most prestigious law firm. Who's really running the show? Who's working in the shadows? And when did she become such a liability? One thing is for certain: she will soon begin to discover that being a liability amongst those who lie for a profession; their presence is likely to put one at a disadvantage. *Cover made by Dr3amOn* *This story is by no means explicit, wattpad changed the rating.*
