"Curiosity killed the kitty Miss Adams." My body stiffened. Slowly I turned around just to see Mr. Parker standing in front of me with hands in his trouser pockets. I bit my lip. I thought he would be angry but when I looked at him. His face showed no emotion. He then started walking towards me I moved back. This continued until my back hit the door. Then he placed his one hand on my side, leaning forward, close to me. "What was rule number three Miss Adams." His face was extremely close to mine my breath got hitched. I couldn't answer his question why? Because I was more focused in the distance between us. "I asked you something Miss Adams." He said again. "T-That t-there a-are prohibited areas i-in the house where I shouldn't g-go." "It seems like you remember the rules. This room is one of those prohibited areas.

❝ If she doesn't scare the life out of you a little, she isn't the one. ❞ Mckayla Silva has had enough. Enough of her stupid job, as news broadcaster. She was pretty sure that nobody else apart that her would tolerate reading reports on a dog's love life and flirtations. Like come on. Seriously? Add on top of that, an obnoxious manager that's hated her from first sight and finds it absolutely hilarious to name her after a burger. Oh, and don't forget the nerd's overly clingy family that absolutely destroyed her university life, and crushed any chance of independence. Just perfect. So when an argument in a makeup shop leads to a sudden job offer of a music video director in the Hollywood world, Mckayla feels like this is her breakthrough moment. What she does not expect is a flashy fashionista that thinks he owns the set, an stunning yet arrogant model who doesn't miss an single opportunity to dig at her and certainly not a playboy singer, who seems to have made it his mission to mess this opportunity up for her. Determined not to let this happen, Mckayla sets off on her journey up the ladder, only to find an annoying hindrance called love in the form of River Romano, bent upon knocking her down. •-xXx-• | Best chick-lit/romance | Aluris Awards 2018 | | Best chick-lit | Pastel Awards 2018/2019 | #5 hotmess 18/05/18 #70 in romcom 25/05/18 •-xXx-• In the Spotlight KiwiAndKoalas All rights reserved ©

----- In serious need of revision! ----- Wanna-be journalist Kate Santoro would do anything for the scoop. Anything. Including finding her way into an underground club exclusive to only those in the Genovese mafia and the beautiful women they employee. What could be more perfect? She would stick to the shadows, snap a few videos, and write the biggest story New York has ever seen, therein making her a legend! Easy as pie. Until she gets found. A series of blatant lies and lucky breaks later and she is mistaken to be one of the workers underneath. While many might be terrified of this predicament Kate couldn't be more excited. The freedom to roam the area and talk to the members of the infamous brotherhood will leave no rock unturned. All she has to do is keep her cover until the night is over and the workers go home. What a fantastic position she is in! There are just two problems. One being him. Alessio. The Don, the Godfather, the Capo di tutti capi (the boss of bosses) who has taken a keen interest in Kate. Even that is something she could probably handle for one night. Except problem number two. They don't leave. Not at the end of the night, the end of the week, or even the end of the month. Alessio's interest in Kate threatens to expose her, something she would surely die from. He knows she doesn't belong but it's not as though she could have just waltzed in, right? By the time Kate realizes that not even the greatest scoop is worth the price, she is in far too deep to call it quits now. ~~~Praise for When The Sun Goes Down~~~ Natasha427: "It was so captivating that I may or may not have spent the last several hours holed up in my room frantically scrolling down to read more.
