Book #1 of the Billionaire Power Couple Series

"Shane, you are a very, attractive billionaire who could have any woman you wanted. And, you are my boss. What if we broke up? I would have been the one out of a job. Besides, I could never date you because I have NO desire what so ever to be in a relationship. I place a high value on my independence."
  
"Billionaires need love too, Bliss. This billionaire wants you. Did someone hurt you in your past?"
  
"Not me. But, both of my sisters. Andrea's boyfriend was a complete, total jerk. Jessica's boyfriend died because a drunk driver hit him. She still has nightmares about it. My friends have also experienced heartbreak."
  
"I don't want to experience heartache at all because of a relationship with a man. My parents dying was heartbreaking enough. I have had two generous and wonderful bosses - Mr. Anderson and you. I would hate to end a working relationship for a personal one. You are a really sweet person, Shane. But, I can't give you what you want. You should find someone who will love you back."
  
"I don't want anyone else. I am not one to give up. So, mark this day on your calendar - July 2, 2018. I, Shane Carson Landes, will one day win Bliss Sanders' heart."
  
  "Good luck trying."

If only it was an Illusion! by Aafrynn

"you're no one to me", his words echoed in my ears but what was it all when he kissed me; merely an illusion? It felt so real and lively. "...and just so you know, you're not allowed to leave this job until or before 6 months", he flung the contract papers in the air. I had signed the papers, the terms and conditions clearly meant that I was supposed to work for his company and had no right to leave it until his consent. "Leave my cabin for now", he ordered as he turned behind. ********** Amanda Waters is your typical College student who happens to face a lot of financial difficulties and as a result, is made to earn a living. She's blunt, She's sensitive but she is also accompanied by two of her best friends in this story: Gina Sullivan and Francis Rutherfold. The enterprise which she works in is different, very different. In fact, the 'CEO' is not just another Happy go lucky male lead of the company. Aaron Reynolds- Rude, Arrogant, Harsh, and Stubborn. He's what they call an eccedentesiast. They say that a person who defines negative adjectives has a lot more inside them, the darkness in that person may overrule all the Positiveness. Well, with Aaron, it's hard to say. But...What if Amanda already had a face-off with 'The CEO' before working in his firm? What if she had already drawn a thick line of hate? What if egos of the same level collide? What then? True Love? More like an illusion! An illusion that poses a life threat. An illusion with the ability to make you believe in non-existent things such as; fairies, demons, fate, and even destiny! Ironic is it not? What we as humans happen to rely on.
