A tropical beach paradise in Mexico was the last place Georgie Basset expected her decimated heart to be jump-started again, not after she'd been jilted the year before by her fiancé, leading to said breakage. But when she spotted Weston Argent jogging along the beach, all bronzed with ripped muscles like some Greek God out of a modern day Baywatch scene, she nearly choked on her cocktail. She knew immediately she was in trouble, she'd never reacted so strongly to a man on first glance. However, after a disastrous first date with him, she headed back home to Dilbury, resigned to never seeing him again. That is, until Weston turned up unexpectedly at her dog grooming parlour with Bertie the French bulldog, a species she had a real weakness for. She couldn't help but wonder if fate was playing a helping hand. But each time she saw him, their encounters never went smoothly, resulting in some mortifying and hilarious escapades. Despite their undeniable attraction, there was something about Weston that she couldn't quite put her finger on, something that concerned her.

When the truth finally came to light, Georgie was convinced that all men were dogs, except she knew that was an insult to dogkind. Ever the meddler, her best friend, Abbie, intervened, knowing in her heart that despite what had happened, Weston was full of good intentions, and was undoubtedly Georgie's Prince Charming.

The question remained, could he convince Georgie of that, or would he forever remain in the dog house?

I was left behind. I was crying now. "Why?" I found myself asking. "Why did you do it, Joey?" "Who are you?" Joey asked, no recognition in his eyes. He had abandoned me.

"What do you call a fish wearing a bowtie?" Instantly, Sawyer frowns, an unimpressed expression on his face. I continue to smile at him, urging him to ask as I grab his shoulders and shake him, "C'mon, Sawyer, you gotta ask!! What do you call a fish wearing a bowtie??" He shakes his head, turning away from me as he presses his tongue to inside of his mouth. Flatly, he states, rubbing his face, "We're not doing this shit, Mari." "Yes we are!!!" I snort loudly as he scowls at me. Poking his shoulder, I ask, "You ready?!!" "No." "I'm gonna say it." "No, you're not-" "SoFISHticated." "You're a fucking idiot." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Lengthy Chapters!!* Marianne Parker and Sawyer Cortez are complete opposites of each other. Marianne believes in finding the good in everything around her. Always smiling, laughing, kind to everyone, and definitely an optimist. With a bubbly attitude and an outgoing personality, she's always looking to make a new friend, and all around a ray of sunshine. Sawyer, on the other hand, is blunt, rude, and pessimistic. He doesn't believe there could be good in everything. He doesn't smile, doesn't laugh, isn't interested in making new friends or socializing. Hell, he BARELY tolerates his own friends. The total definition of a raincloud. But, when Sawyer meets Marianne, it becomes all too clear that there's something about her he can't ignore. From the way she walks, talks, laughs, and smiles. It's all distracting to him, and he doesn't like that. In his efforts, he tries to ignore it and avoid her. But that can be hard when the girl in question, AKA Marianne, is EQUALLY interested in him too. Started August 2023 - ????
Fur Ball Fever by MaureenFisher3
42 parts Complete Mature
(Book 1 of the 'Fever' series): A romantic crime mystery spiked with attitude (most of it warped), tons of humor, and enough steamy sex to drive those who dare read it racing for a cold shower. 5 Stars: "One for the Money meets Best in Show." 5 Stars: "Fun romance with laugh out loud humor!" An impulsive pet spa owner who loses her client's prize pooch ... After a lifetime of impetuous mistakes, pet spa owner Grace Donnelly outdoes herself when she loses Miss Coco Chanel-a shoo-in to win the annual Jersey Shore Fur Ball. Money, careers, and lives are in jeopardy. Too bad her helpers consist of an aging hippie aunt, a renegade schnauzer, and a drag queen. Worst of all, the only man truly qualified to help is her former flame, the hunkiest bodyguard north of the Mason-Dixon Line. A smokin' hot bodyguard with his own agenda ... Security specialist Nick Jackson faces his worst nightmare when Grace's amateur investigation nearly blows his undercover operation. Unless he nails the con-artist who scammed local seniors and whacked a witness, his homicidal granddaddy will take justice into his own liver-spotted hands. To salvage his case, his sanity, and his ex-lover's velvety skin, Nick joins forces with the sassy crusader who rubs him the wrong way-and so many right ways too. Together, they weather an explosion of murder, mayhem, and fun ... Action bounces between a beach harboring washed-up corpses, a fancy yacht no honest preacher could possibly afford, and the bawdiest nightclub in Atlantic City. Hazards multiply like bunnies, culminating in romance ... and a Fur Ball extravaganza the locals will never forget.

'Needs a lot of editing' We break the kiss hurriedly and look in the door's direction to see Andrea. "Oh my god, sorry. I didn't know you were eating her face, Gabriel. Get a room," She teases. "We are in a room," I remark, throwing a pillow her way. "Ha! Missed me," she laughs when she avoided the pillow. I throw another one and miss again. "Missed me again," She laughs again. "I swear to God Andy," I say, losing my patience. "Okay, okay, I'll go now and let you guys finish." She states, swaying her eyebrows. When she leaves I look back at a blushing mess Bailey, and I smile when I think about how cute she looks. ____________________________ Andrea and Gabriel had been friends since the first day Andrea joined Carter's company as an assistant. 'As much as they grew closer there was nothing more than friendship between', so they thought until Things got complicated when Gabriel found himself a girlfriend that shouldn't be taken lightly. As they both grow apart the void they left between them might make them realize what they're losing, but would it be too late? Andrea might understand that Gabriel was more than a friend to her but does she have the heart to ruin his current relationship. What will happen between these two?
