Sparkler Snapshots
Dear beloved wanderer, It is with great pride and pleasure that I extend a formal invitation to you for a worldwide expedition. I plan to travel the globe over the span of a single year, you see, and I am in desperate need of company. If you accept this offer, then be aware that we shall be experiencing more celebrations than most have in their lifetime. Even though each one is merely a bite-sized sample, they pack more punch than you may be able to handle. However, I know you love a challenge, so I do hope you consider this opportunity. I would advise you dress up in comfortable garments as you dance your heart out for Cinco de Mayo, get your hands dirty while planting trees, and let the aroma of hot cocoa waft under your nose as Christmas music plays softly in the background. I suspect that we shall also be participating in some sort of musical event in June. Anyhow, if you would like to join me, then I shall meet you at the airport tomorrow morning with your tickets.

The Wedding Plan
What happens when we put together two workaholics with their hearts closed to love? Eleanor, a clumsy twenty-two-year-old, had everything in her life planned out and was focused only on her career and everything was going smoothly until she tried to walk into the same elevator as Sebastian Crain. After that, she thought she would not meet him face to face again, until she started working at his company and he made her an outrageous request. At twenty-six, Sebastian had just replaced his father as CEO of Crain enterprises. Not only was his professional life in total chaos, but the media had also depicted him as having an extremely active romantic life when, in fact, it was inexistent. But everything changed when he received his sister's wedding invitation and was told that he needed to attend with a date. To him, Eleanor looked perfect for the part. They only had to pretend to be a couple and attend a wedding. But what will happen once they realize that what they have is a lot more than a fake relationship? P.S: English is not my first language, so if you read something of mine, please be kind in the comments and constructive criticism is really appreciated.Complete

⚠ Warning sexual content!!! ⚠ *Book 1 of the "Unexpected Lovestory" Series* She loved her husband more than her last breath. She was blinded, deafened and suffocated in his love.

He had plagued her mind, so much so that when he suggested an open relationship he made her believe it was her idea but she never wanted that. She wanted him and only him. He wanted her and everyone else he could get. But that all changed when Tobias Wrexler walked in... ©️ Copyright 2020 Demii Jada R. ©️ All Rights Reserved.

"Okay, then allow me to offer a pact." He says, immediately making me a mixture of terrified and suspicious. "You say that I'm a jerk; a bully. So, why not change that my way?" "I don't like where this is going-" I begin, but he cuts me off. "Just listen." He comes closer, seating himself next to me on the curb. "You've made me lose 3 hot dates, and in my books, that's unforgivable. There was Bunny, the girl at the party, the red headed girl from Geometry, and that Grateful Dead hippy chick from the parking lot." I start to feel uneasy, like Jake is going to make me do something I am not going to want to do. "I think that I deserve some fun." He suddenly notices my face and smirks. "Not that kind of fun." I let out a well-needed breath, not noticing that I was even holding my breath until now. "An agreement," He smiles widely, liking whatever he has come up with. "Here's the rules." He hands me a piece of paper that he was keeping in his jeans pocket. I unfold it and stare at the messy handwriting. Player's can- Sweet talk Play fight Talk 24/7 Tell each other good morning and good night every day Take walks together Give each other nicknames Hang out with each other's friends Go on dates Talk on the phone all night long Hold each other Kiss Hug And whoever falls in love first, loses (Nobody can be dating anyone during this agreement or else they automatically lose) (Winner gets the opposite player to do anything they want them to do)Complete
