Golden Hour
Quote: "I knew that I shouldn't feel this way. I knew he was off limits; someone I shouldn't be around. But deep down, I knew I didn't care. I knew I felt things for him, and I knew they would get me in trouble one day. I just hoped that day was far, far in the future." Kamea moves to New York her freshman year of college, hoping to become a big-time photographer in the future. What she doesn't expect is her sister's boyfriend, a famous model and well-known actor, to start a strange friendship with her. Having avoided any type of affection all her life, Kamea finds herself unable to escape him and soon learns the consequences of what it means to get too close to someone. In secret, they both discover the boundaries of lust, and Kamea must make the difficult decision between what she wants and what she knows is right. Inspired by the romantic novels of The Hating Game, The Kissing Booth, and After, Golden Hour is a novel that will leave you blushing and jealous of the on-going romance between these two polar opposites. TIp: This is an actual novel, not just a short and quick romance. So it'll be around forty or so chapters, and it will be more slow-burn than most romances on this site.

A Vegas Mishap (#2)
I stared at the person sitting on the chair in front of me. That instant I realised that I didn't know this person at all. This was not the person I have been living with. This person just looked like that person. There was nothing same except the looks. The pose, the expression, the emotions in the voice, nothing matched. I couldn't believe that it is the same person. "Doesn't mean anything?" I asked with a low voice as anger filled me. "Yes, it was only a Vegas Mishap." ********************************************************************************** When Ophelia Russo traveled from Italy to the United States, she had no idea what was going to happen to her. Wanting to forget all her worries and the stress of managing a fast growing business, one night she finds herself in a bar in Las Vegas, and in the company of the very handsome businessman, Ethan Welsh, who himself is on a vacation for a break from his womanizing life in Greece. Two hot people, one lively night in Vegas and a few drinks down, what do you expect to happen? No, no. If it was just a one night stand that had happened, it wouldn't have been this bad.
