Bossed Three Times by rubyjane1391

Part 2 of -> Twice Bossed This book is sort of a continuation of another book - Twice Bossed, but, not really. It is a completely standalone story - you DO NOT have to have read Twice Bossed first, at all. Three times the fantasy, three times the trouble. I've got a dirty secret. A crush. Specifically, on my boss. Well, bosses. All three of them. Not one, and not two, but three. Three huge, dominant, possessive, gorgeous men. And you want to know the really dirty part? They want to make me theirs. They want to make me submit, and make me feel things I've never felt before. Things I've never dared to dream about. Three men with an offer of a lifetime - the chance to fulfill the dirtiest, filthiest, most forbidden fantasy a girl could ever imagine. There's only one question. Do I dare? They say two is a party and three's a crowd, but I don't think that's right. Three is perfect. The filthiest, hottest, most mind-blowing type of perfect imaginable. That is, if I can handle it. Bossed Three Times is a hot, steamy read involving a mfmm menage romance with three utterly obsessed alpha heroes. This is all about her (Written by MADISON FAYE)

Forbidden Desire ✓ | #1 | by venusorionv

This is the first book of a trilogy. All books must be read in chronological order as you may not understand what is happening and I will not be responsible for the caused confusion. ~~~~~~~~~ BRIELLE One night turned into a complete fiasco that seemed to haunt her to the present day. Brielle Hansley was the picture-perfect girl with perfect grades, a reserved job offer and a boyfriend who seemed perfect. At first. Her life couldn't have been any better until her sister got engaged to the man whose brother she knew better than she desired. It was only a month, she told herself. A month under the same roof and then everything would go back to normal. But as she starts to discover new secrets that seem to intertwine her life with his, she doubts she will ever be able to forget the man with whom a one-night stand seemed too good to be true. ~~~~~~~~~ NICOLAS Nicolas Salucci, the heir to the Italian Cosa Nostra was reserved and couldn't confide in anyone. It seemed like his life would continue to be as shallow and dark as his father made it to be until he met her. After overhearing a scheme which could end Nicolas's life, she demanded only a single night. One that he was tempted to give her and did. Only, he didn't think that that one night would cost him his entire heart. The woman was everything he desired and more. Yet he despised her. His father had chosen a woman for him to marry yet how could he marry someone whom he had no feelings for? As verities begin to arise, Nicolas begins to realise that maybe he only hated himself for falling for a woman he couldn't have. And a woman that quickly became his forbidden desire... ~~~~~~~~~ Warning!!! Includes explicit sexual scenes, strong language, mature content, and mentions of suicide.
