Liliana "Lily" Hamill is just your average working woman. 5'5" with wavy brown hair the color of milk chocolate and blue eyes, she's never been described by anyone as "a catch." She's pretty enough, what with her athletic frame and well-proportioned face. She rises every day, runs almost every morning, and gets ready for work just like many twenty-something-year-olds in the United States. She's been working mostly in the marketing department at Andino Incorporated since she graduated from a college in Texas at twenty-one, and she's lived in New York City for the past two. She doesn't think she's anyone special. But she is, because Lily has been blind since birth, although her disability has never held her back. That burden has fallen on her insecurities. Now, though, she's attempting to face her fears. Her closest childhood friend, Joseph Montran, has invited her to a company social event, and Lily grudgingly has agreed to go. All she knows is that it's informal, that she and her guide dog, Chelise, can mostly hang out with Joe and his wife, Katherine, if that's what Lily wants, and that she shouldn't be afraid to "act natural." What she doesn't know is that social event will change her life forever. //// I KEEP EDITING AS I'M WRITING. I'm sorry to anyone who gets updates for old parts to which I make minor grammatical changes. Don't kill me. c:

This is a sample. If you would like to support and read this book in its new and improved form please head on over to Dreame. It is currently free with a billion new chapters, better character development and more. This earth has many billionaires. Some of them go unnoticed for the majority, if not all of their life. They range in character just like all other humans alike. Jace Grey is the billionaire at hand. He is painfully handsome, charming, and possessive. This one was different. You could tell by the way he laughed at life and spit in its face. He extruded power like a yummy pasta maker and Ryan wants not part of it. But as you know. We are most drawn to the things we shouldn't be. In walks Ryan Brown. She is trying to save as much money as she can so she can disappear from her past even more than she already has. Taking a job as a data entry clerk in Grey Industries she believes she will be able to continue her life as a ghost with the money she needs to eat well and eventually escape to a remote island. At least that is what she planned. "I will be no ones. That's what got me here in the first place" I didn't need another man trying to control my life after the last one. I slammed my open palm into his inner elbow making him loose his balance and lean into me. Grabbing his other i slip under the arm and twisted until I was behind him. Kicking him behind his knee to make him loose his footing. I yanked his arm further up his back. "I am not your property" I whispered, with a shaky voice in his ear. But in the end the things we try our hardest to stay away from usually attract us the most...
