Forcedintimacy Stories

I wrote this story with a close colleague in mind...something sweet and lighthearted just for her. She enjoys romance when it's about others, though she's not one to seek it out for herself. In my version of her story, she stumbles upon love in the most unexpected way. And since she has a thing for Italian men, I couldn't resist giving her the very best...straight from my imagination. _________________________________________________________________ He's the brooding Italian groomsman she never asked for. She's the island girl who doesn't believe in love stories, not even at a wedding. Keilani agreed to be a bridesmaid out of love for her aunt-not to get paired up with a stranger for two weeks of wedding prep. But when she meets Marco De Luca, the groom's brooding, maddeningly attractive nephew, sparks start flying in all the wrong (and right) ways. He's intense. She's unimpressed. And neither of them is looking for love. But under the warm skies of Fiji, hearts have a way of unravelling. And when tension turns into something deeper, Keilani must decide: will she keep her walls up... or take the risk no one expects? A slow-burn island romance filled with banter, unexpected chemistry, and the kind of connection you can't outrun, even in paradise.
