Being the proud owner of Elles bakery, Evangeline Cahill puts all her priority into working so that she is able to stay and live in New York City. All the while across from her own apartment is New York cop, Elijah Benson. He's blatantly honest and is much like Evangeline when it comes to lacking friends. So when he is in dire need of someone to watch his dog, Harvey he turns to the one person he's talked to longer then a whole of five minutes. Willingly saying yes, Evangeline thinks nothing of it other than she'll be able to come home to something other than her television. But with dog sitting comes dinner dates, dog walks, and lots of late night conversations. Copyright © oliviamckenny 2019

"You just have no idea." His voice was thick with restraint. "W-what," I breathed. His gaze flicked to my lips as his thumb stroked again. The calloused pad against my soft flesh sent goosebumps down my arms. His once warm eyes were dark as they lifted and bared into my soul. "What you do to... men." His husky whisper weakened my knees. I almost fell but his other hand settled on my hip, pulling me closer to him. "What you do to me," he added on a breath. The hand on my jaw shifted. His fingers left trails of tingles as he slipped them back slowly, under my earlobe and into my curls. *************************************************** As a young girl, Charlotte Avery's favourite pass time was daydreaming about her Prince Charming: Archer Johnson.
