"What would you do if you had a second chance to make things right?" Julie Carson has been running from her past for as long as she can remember. From leaving her little town (more importantly her controlling mother) and repressing the heartbreak of her first love gone wrong, avoiding problems is all Julie knows. It isn't until her relationship with sweet, dependable Ethan Mayhews ends because of her inability to confront her past, that Julie realizes the only way to mend a broken heart is to acknowledge it was broken in the first place. With her sister getting married and her ex-boyfriend, now New York Times best-seller, Evan Morgan, back in her life, there's nowhere to run anymore for Julie. Of course, old habits die hard, when Julie is forced into the lie of a lifetime. Suddenly, instead of finding a wedding date, she's cornered into pretending Evan's her wedded spouse instead. Does her reunion with Evan spell a second chance at romance or is Ethan the man after her own heart? Or, more importantly: can she stay true to who she is while living a lie or is it about to go up in flames? Highest Tag: #6 on #Romance

I was just an innocent girl, then shit happens

[SAMPLE] Reed frowned, his eyes filled with confusion when he saw that Lena seemed to be fine. "I heard a scream," he announced stiffly, standing awkwardly over Lena's bed. Beneath the sheets, Lena was torn between renewed arousal and slight mortification. Embarrassment won. "Everything's fine," she muttered, trying to discreetly disengage the battery-operated toy from between her thighs. It was a thick phallus, way too thick to silently exit her wet pússy, but finally, finally, it popped out. "But you screamed." "Because I came, Reed." His bewilderment only grew. "Came where?" And that was when Lena knew that even after what had happened between them last night, Reed was still like a newborn, an innocent. He might have been the most intelligent guy she knew but in many ways, he was still the boy he'd been before the accident that had marred his life. So she heaved out a sigh, clamping her thighs together when she felt his gaze scorch her damp skin. "I had an orgasm, Reed." She calmly spelled it out, wondering if she should mention that it was his cock she'd been imagining inside her. Now that she knew what he was packing, it was impossible to get the image out of her head - not that she was trying. Reed swallowed, a blush creeping up his neck. Lena was instantly turned on by that blush, by his obvious discomfort and arousal. So she did the most natural thing that came to her. She pulled her sheets away.
