COMPLETE 

Freddie and Amanda are both confident and successful business people in their own right. In their thirties, Freddie runs his own restaurant and Amanda heads up a team of engineers at an aerospace company. 

Their lives are on different trajectories until a bolt of lightning connects them and sets off a chain of events that sends Amanda's career down the drain while Freddie's continues to make waves.

On meeting again months later, sparks fly when they start exchanging intimate fantasies, but can Amanda handle a relationship given the mess she feels her life has descended into? And does Freddie care for her, or does he simply love fixing people?

Their dysfunctional romance has many false starts as Amanda struggles with her declining mental health. And just when she thinks she has it all figured out, tragedy hits once more. Can lightning really strike twice or is something more sinister going on?

The Men Next Door by wildfirehoney

✅ Complete ✅ When Campbell Kramer accepted a job offer in Manhattan, she never could've imagined what the city had in store for her. Namely, two handsome men who live on either side of her new apartment. One is older, one is younger. One is introverted, one is extroverted. One is serious, one is playful. Both of them want her attention. What could go wrong? ☲☲☲☲☲ ☆Brooks☆ My neighbor was the one to close the distance between us. She did it quickly -- like she was scared the moment would pass away forever if she let another millisecond go by -- and I rested my hand on the side of her face to steady her. Something about my touch must have given her courage. ♡Campbell♡ The men finally greeted each other while I snipped the green, woody stems and plopped them into the tallest mug I owned. Their sentences were short and awkward, and as I rearranged the blooms for the umpteenth time, the realization that they'd told each other what happened hit me like a south-bound train. I don't know why I didn't expect that. They were best friends, after all. I was just their new neighbor. They had no loyalty to me, no reason to keep our time together a secret. ☆Luca☆ Her lips met mine slowly, softly, hesitantly -- like she wasn't so sure kissing her neighbor was the best idea -- and I responded just as delicately. But when her hand made its way into the back of my hair, our bodies melded together like a lust-struck alloy. And the only hope of separating us was to add more heat. ☲☲☲☲☲ Featured by: 📙 @Wattpad • Spicy Summer Reads (July 2024) • Endless Reading Mode 🧡 (Jan 2024) • Summer in the City 🥵 (June 2023) 📕 @Romance • New Adult (June 2024) 📘 @Ambassadors • Hot Encounters (Dec 2024) Awards: 🥈 Romance runner-up (The Prime Awards 2023)

New York Series: Office Affair by MadaleineCBlue

"You don't talk much, do you? Don't you at least want to know my name if you can't see my face?" I asked him curiously. His brown eyes also hidden behind the mask and his lips pulled into a wide grin, he spoke in a deep raspy voice "I think I'll call you Medusa and now let's not talk. I have a better idea." //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Francesca thought her life was set. A stable career in event management, an engagement to a respectable man-everything seemed perfect. But when a chance encounter with Manuel, a mysterious stranger, ignites a night of undeniable chemistry, Francesca's carefully curated world begins to unravel. Manuel isn't just a one-time spark-he's the new hire at her firm. Caught between a secret affair, a fiancé who feels more like a duty than a partner, and an ex-boss who's always been more than a friend, Francesca is faced with the ultimate dilemma: Can she risk everything for a chance at true love, or will her passion destroy the life she's worked so hard to build? In the heart of New York City's fast-paced world of event planning, tensions soar, and forbidden desires push Francesca to the edge. With every choice, the stakes grow higher-one wrong move and it could all come crashing down. **"Office Affair"** is a steamy, suspense-filled romance where love and betrayal blur the lines of duty and desire.
