"So goddamn tiny," He muttered to himself, making a blush rise to Freya's cheeks. "I am not," She defended herself quietly. "You're just huge." ~🎀~ Freya Karol was the epitome of innocence. She was small, sheltered, and fiercely protected by her millionare father. Going out after 8pm was a no. Drinking alcohol or doing drugs was a no. Skipping school without reason was a no. And boys were a big no. But if there was one thing that attracted Falcon Anders, it was innocence. ~🎀~ "All the synonyms of perfect. This book is absolutely beautiful, the plot, the writing and the characters are so addicting. Literally fell in love within reading the first paragraph of the book. I honestly truly hope you update more often, because you're very talented and this book is literally beautiful💙" - Najma Copyright © 2019 N.E. Lorimer All rights reserved.

"Forgive me, Mr Hayes but a girl doesn't want thousands of dollars spent upon her. A simple goodwill, heartfelt gesture is enough to make a woman turn into a puddle of goo." I nervously fiddle with the hem of my risen skirt and I clear my throat. "If a woman wants your money - then it's not love." He pushes himself from the large oak desk he was resting upon and walks forward causing my temperature to rise and a strangled breath catch in my throat. His hands grasp the chairs arm on either side of me and my toes curled within my high heels. "Then teach me, Miss Field." He speaks, dipping his head to catch my nervous gaze. "Give me lessons on how to love." ||| Miss Francesca Fields, also known as Frankie, has read one too many romantic novels, watched one too many romantic movies and dreams too much about the glorious, old fashioned romance.

Expecting to be fired on the spot, Francesca was completely stunned at Mr Hayes offer.

Published under Pop Fiction/Summit Media. She's rich, he's not. She's the student body president, he's struggling to pass math. She's the queen bee, he's the loner in school. Celeste Graham is on the top of the high school food chain. Students look up to her, but some just plainly feel intimidated. Being popular isn't exactly the greener side of the meadow, but just one night of getting locked into the school with a "nobody" made Celeste feel normal and genuinely happy. Both of them bring a hidden side to each other. They might disagree most of the time, but that was a little price to pay for falling for their polar opposite.
