Craving Ava by ritarwrites

Ava Brown, a struggling waitress haunted by her memories was someone who could never go unnoticed, despite how oblivious she was to that very same fact. Easton Maxwell, a well-known billionaire C.E.O. with a thriving company and a troubled past wasn't used to not being noticed, especially from such a distinctively beautiful woman. From the moment he laid eyes on her but went unseen, he was determined to make himself known. She had carved herself onto him without even trying, and the need to have her suppressed everything. Why? He couldn't quite figure that out yet. All he knew, was that his bed had been empty for quite some time, and she was the only one he wanted in it. When she slipped through his fingers, he decided he wouldn't rest until he found her again. Luckily, he did, ninety-three days later. And from that day on, for better or worse, their lives would never be the same.

Corporate Secrets by deloresBR

Cole Reagan has always been focused, ambitious, and goal-oriented. It's why at thirty-seven, he's one of the youngest billionaires in the world. It's also why he's going to take over one of the largest corporations ever built. And it's why he finds himself in Chicago instead of New York, trying to clean up the mess that was left behind by the former Director. *************** What's worse than having a new boss who seems to hate everything about you, from the way you dress to the way you speak? Well, Anne Reese has the answer to that. It's when said boss is also the man you had a crush on for ages when you were still a child. And he doesn't even recognize her. But that's not the worst of it. She believes he actually hates her. And while they both try to keep their distance, working together day after day means friction. And friction means sparks. Add in the factor of a criminal mastermind who is doing all he can to bring the Company down, Cole's sister who happens to be Anne's best friend, and all of a sudden things are quite complicated. Will Cole's suspicion, her own fears, and all the surrounding circumstances allow them to build something that lasts?

He retorts with a raised eyebrow. _____________________________________ Trina McMillan is a successful CFO who worked her way up the corporate ladder finally landing a CFO position at her dream company only for her and her entire management team to get fired due to the CEOs temper tantrum after their nasty breakup. Jonathan Wyles is livid and just wants to make Trina's life a living hell. After all money is power. And how much will he spend to see her downfall?
