Café Rouge is the small french cafe that Lola's father has poured his heart and soul into. She'd never thought, he'd acquired it through...darker means. The Italian mob to be more precise. Now it's collection time and Lola's paying the price. Trading herself for her father's life-Lola finds herself in the hands of the incredibly frustrating, confusing and very good looking mob son's boss-Carlos. She's convinced that with Carlos there's nothing more than what meets the eye; a cold-hearted, killer but could she be wrong? Warning: First chapter goes fast since it was taken from a One-Shot. I will be editing this along with the rest of the book much later so bear in mind the story does get better :)

Working as a waitress in New Jersey wasn't actually Analeina (Ana)'s dream job, but she managed to make it fit into her life, though she always wished for a new opportunity or adventure. But you know what they say, be careful what you wish for. When Analeina accidentally spilled hot coffee on one of New Jersey's most available billionaire and bachelor Jaxon Terrace, she didn't expect that to be her opportunity. When the angry billionaire demands that she pays back for the clothes she ruined, she admitted to having no money but the Billionaire wouldn't have any of it. He accepted her in his employ for a period of time as his secretary in order for her to pay back for the clothes. However, when the time was up, and the debt was payed, Jaxon wasn't ready to let Analeina go, but when she wasn't too excited to stay in his employ, the beast in him came out, and the shy beauty was his sole victim. Will Jaxon win Analeina's love in the end, or will she see him as nothing but a beast unworthy and undeserving of love? __________________________________________________ -Sneak Peek- "Jaxon, I payed off the money that I owed, what more do you want from me?" Said Analeina as she stared in disbelief at the unfolding events. "You're right, you did, but money is no longer what I want. I want YOU! And I ALWAYS get what I WANT!" Sneered Jaxon as he stared down the shy beauty in front of him. Her fear, her tears, and her uncertainty aroused the beast within him, and that beast was going to get that beauty, no matter the cost.

After everything that took place in Jade's and Dean's past, it was finally time for them to come together in holy matrimony. They have been through so much that nothing could break their connection, or tear them apart. Or so they thought. So of course, when their happy day arrives, no one expected what was to come next. But then again, everyone has a haunting past, and sometimes their fears from the past becomes their worst living nightmare. When Jade is confronted with someone from her past, she is torn between protecting her loved ones, and leaving the one she loves. Having no other choice, Jade must live through her worst nightmare in order to protect her loved ones, and hopefully make it out alive to be with the one she loves. ________________________________ SNEAK PEEK: "Wh-why are you doing this? What do you want ?" I questioned, staring deeply into his brown orbs, reminiscing how I used to get lost in them so easily. "Oh stop this act Jade, you're smarter than that. You know exactly what I want." He said, stalking closer, his voice smooth as silk, yet has a bit of a rough tone to it , as he placed his hand on on my cheek, and his thumb softly traced my bottom lip, causing a jolt of excitement to travel throughout my body, which I instantly scolded myself for. I shouldn't be affected by him, not anymore. "Well you can't have me!" I slapped his hand away, then pushed him causing him to stumble backwards. I then quickly grabbed my purse, and pulled out my taser. I pointed it towards him as I said "get out! GET OUT!" He seemed surprised for a second but then his face relaxed, as a smirk took place on his lips, he took a few steps towards the door then turned and said "Don't worry Jade, I will have you. Whether you want to or not, I will do whatever it takes to it happen. Mark my words Jade Christina Reaves, you will be mine, and that is a promise."
