She dreamed of the day her prince would come in and save her from her life of loneliness. Growing up in a poor neighbourhood outside of Venice Italy, both of Sofia's parents worked around the clock to give her the life she deserved. As she grew up she slowly learned that no prince was coming to save her, and she had to save herself. Using everything she had she boarded a plane and landed in NYC to pursue her passion career. A career where she could help, be respected and frankly make a fuck ton of money - lawyer. But going to law school has a high price tag, so when her tuition bill comes due and she's short, she preservers. Putting herself up for a date at an auction, she never expected to meet her knight in shining armour. Let alone for it to be her arrogant, workaholic, 6'4 hot Italian boss. Will this be the fairy tale ending Sofia has been longing for or just another frog she has to kiss until she finds her prince?

She's the wife he never wanted...and the weakness he never saw coming. Ruthless. Meticulous. Arrogant. Dante Russo thrives on control, both personally and professionally. The billionaire CEO never planned to marry-until the threat of blackmail forces him into an engagement with a woman he barely knows. Vivian Lau, jewelry heiress and daughter of his newest enemy. It doesn't matter how beautiful or charming she is. He'll do everything in his power to destroy the evidence and their betrothal. There's only one problem: now that he has her...he can't bring himself to let her go. *** Elegant. Ambitious. Well-mannered. Vivian Lau is the perfect daughter and her family's ticket into the highest echelons of high society. Marrying a blue-blooded Russo means opening doors that would otherwise remain closed to her new-money family. While the rude, elusive Dante isn't her idea of a dream partner, she agrees to their arranged marriage out of duty. Craving his touch was never part of the plan. Neither was the worst thing she could possibly do: fall in love with her future husband.

Emery's Cocoa Princess by ItsTeir

Emery Amato was the only girl of the Amato siblings, but that didn't make her any less intimidating. She had made a name for herself all of her own. Specializing in getting information. Her creative ways of doing it knew no bounds and for that reason, she garnered respect alone. She felt like a Prince, because Kings had too many responsibilities, and every Prince needed a Princess. Emery first laid eyes on hers one night while she was out with her siblings. She was everything Emery could have ever wanted physically. The only word that did her justice was, Mine. Larkin Hall was your average college student. She was majoring in Business Finance and she spent a lot of her time studying. Coming from a childhood riddled with foster homes, she was determined to make something of herself. She had been dating the same guy casually for a few months, but didn't see it going anywhere serious. One night while she was out with him, her eyes landed on what she initially assumed was an attractive male, but turned out to be an attractive female. Larkin didn't know how to take it. She had never been attracted to or with a woman before, but it seemed that she was going to get a first hand lesson. One of many. ~~~ "What are you doing?" Larkin questioned as Emery pushed her backwards onto the bed before hovering over her. "Helping you study." The older woman stated, kissing on her neck. Larkin let out a small groan. "How is this supposed to help me study?" "You're holding in too much tension. I'm going to help you release it." Emery informed her as she lifted up her shirt and kissed down her stomach. When she made it to the waistband of her panties, she pulled them off of Larkin before looking up at her. "A few times." She then tacked on to her earlier statement before plunging tongue first into her pussy.

Tír na nÓg Trilogy, Book I: The Trials of Cuchulain by SarahQuinnMcGrath

Emery's an entirely normal seventeen-year-old with an entirely normal life, until a stranger shows up just to stare at her . . . and stare . . . and stare. Then the really weird things start happening: a friend vanishes into thin air, warriors and antlered monsters battle in the woods, and a druid takes up residence in Emery's mother's she-shed. When the staring stranger begins making outrageous claims about a relationship they couldn't possibly share, the girl is forced to figure out whether her life is more myth and magic than she'd ever realized. *This is a trilogy. The second and third installments are also available on Wattpad! This trilogy pulls heavily from the Ulster Cycle of Celtic myth. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it!
