DELIVERY, a 2016 WATTY Award winner, featured in Cosmo Magazine and as an Editors' Pick on Wattpad After Dark. http://www.cosmopolitan.com/a61599 Harry is a graduate student studying for his master's degree in business and buying into an expanding organic restaurant. With intense determination, he pursues a former professor who is ten years his senior. She has a violent past and a nasty ex-husband. Harry finds himself pulled into her battle to free herself from the past. Harry is prepared to fight for what he wants, and in this case, he wants Professor M. "For Harry, there was no turning back. The nerves were coiled in his belly, snaking through his bloodstream, pounding in his brain like an infection. Trepidation, however, would not end his quest for her. His physical need for Madelyn was nearly as overwhelming and the need to know her mind and envelop her essence. Whatever made her the woman she was, he craved it as though his hunger was insatiate. This wasn't a game or a dalliance for Harry. He was all in, feet first. Now he had to convince Madelyn to throw caution to the wind and jump with him."

[18+] Imogen is shocked when the sexy stranger she spent the summer sleeping with turns out to be her new boss. ***** [WILL BE REMOVED FROM WATTPAD ON AUGUST 3RD, 2023] When two strangers each booked a holiday in Greece, neither of them expected to spend more time sweating beneath the sheets than beneath the sun. After dropping out of uni, Imogen needed to blow off some steam and forget all about her poor choices, disappointing one-night stands, and wasted education. Jason was a welcome distraction--one that turned into something more serious than a few fun nights in his luxury hotel suite. Having got through another year managing his company, Jason embarked on his annual trip abroad where he hoped to compensate for his lack of sex at home. Imogen became more than a casual hook-up, though, and it wasn't just her body that kept him interested. Both wanted to escape. Both became captivated in a fiery romance. And when summer ends and their paths cross again, this time as boss and employee, they find out that both had been lying.
