Everything had changed when her dad moved from the busy, over crowded city of New York to a small rural town in Tennessee. Saying goodbye to the city and her old life, she wasn't to eager to head off to a whole new place that was foreign to her siblings and her.
Meet the Hawthornes. Every day is an adventure for the troublesome and chaotic family. Susan and Dan Hawthorne, and their five rowdy teenage sons make life a wild adventure for Cassia. Though, what happens when she begins to fall for one of the Hawthorne boys when half of them has already fallen head over heels for her?

"Cassia, do you trust me?"
I couldn't answer. I wouldn't. He couldn't hear how afraid I was. Cassia Rowan was supposed to be the fearless and exceedingly sarcastic city girl. Biting my bottom lip, I slowly nodded. Taking Liam's outstretched hand, once again I couldn't help but think how well it fit with mine.
He pulled me closer to him, his other arm snaking around my waist. With his other hand, which had now slipped out of mine, he grasped the thick rope tightly, and then swung.

I rolled my eyes and tried to find the right words to tell him about our marriage. "Mr. Kills, I would like to talk to you about our marriage." I said, as I turned to face him.

Spiral Knot (An Office Dark Romance)
Have you ever touched yourself, Miss Hawthorne?" He leaned in and dragged his tongue slowly along the shell of my right ear. My head was growing fuzzy with lust. "Yes," I breathed. "How many times?" "Multiple... multiple times," I answered shakily. "Who were you thinking of when you did it?" he teased, voice thick with dark pleasure. I almost moaned his name but barely held back. "No one." "No one?" He grabbed both of my breasts fully, squeezing them firmly in his large hands. "No one," I repeated weakly. "Have you ever..." He paused, rolling my stiff nipples between his fingers, tugging them lightly. "Done it in front of a man?" I gasped sharply. "No." "Do you want to try it out?" he mumbled hotly against my flushed skin. I heaved hard, my entire body trembling with need. "Answer me." "Yes." "Spread your legs." ♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤ Daphne Hawthorne was living her best life as a recent graduate until she met a mysterious Spanish man with hazel eyes and a flirty smile.
