A COFFEE NOW WINE LATER NOVELLA

All Cat wants out of her life was her dream job, her dream man, and her favorite coffee. She could settle for one out of three, right?

Self-diagnosed coffee addict Cat Coleman believes her hard work as an unpaid intern for an entire year at a highly reputable interior design firm pays off when she excitedly accepts a full-time position with the company. However, instead of shadowing veteran designers, she's still sorting and delivering mail and making coffee runs. She simply went from unpaid intern to being the boss' personal assistant.

When a very grown-up and seriously sexy David Greenlaw from her Minnesota hometown begins an internship in the same business building, Cat tries to resist his boyish charms and flirty smiles. Because she knows his deceptively evil older sister, Gail, who made Cat's high school years a living nightmare, would happily pick up where she left off and tear down the new life she built.

Cat desperately wants to trust her heart and David's promises, but she distrusts Gail and her fake sweet smiles even more. When David's loyalty is tested, should Cat trust him to make the right decision or should she sacrifice her own happiness to ensure his?

He replied, "She may never love me, and that doesn't matter to me. My love for her is boundless, enough to fill both our hearts and keep me content.

Even if she gives me ten percent of that love, I'll be the happiest man alive." ♡ Anisha Mehta finds herself at a crossroads after the tragic loss of her husband.

We should be doing this," I mumbled, yet I bent my neck for him, giving him better access to it. "Yes we shouldn't," he answered, but his hands were sliding under my skirt and pulling my panties down. "If we get caught," I muttered, moaning as his fingers found my slick entrance and he rubbed. My knees shook but he held me against himself with his other hand. "If we get caught," he repeated. It was as if this had become some sort of game between him and I. Repeating each other's words like this. "I could be expelled and your job would be taken from you," I completed. "Yes, that could happen," he answered with a nod of his head. He moved away from me and stared into my eyes. "But it won't happen. We won't get caught. I won't tell, if won't tell." "I'd be crazy to tell someone," I answered, my eyes searching his. "Hmm," he answered with a nod of his head. His face was blank and it was quite hard to know if he was already rethinking what we were doing. I wouldn't blame him if he was. Why would he thro away his career for me? He sidestepped me and walked to the door, locking it behind us. "Now I'm going to need you to be quiet. Can you do that?" "Can you be quiet for me?" He asked again. "You need to be quiet if you don't want them to catch us," he told me. I nodded my head, staring into his eyes. Yes. I could be quiet for him. I would be quiet for him. "Use your words, sweetie," he murmured as he walked back to me and placed his hands under my chin, raising it up. "Yes," I breathed out. "Good girl. On your knees," he commanded. **** When your one night stand turns out to be your professor, there's only one thing to do- continue to sleep with him. And that was exactly what Sophia is going to do. She's faced with a forbidden attraction that's hard to resist until she finds out his dark secret; he's a vampire. Will her passion overcome the secrets he had been hiding from her or will the shadows tear them apart?

I beg to differ that.", I sassed and got out of his grip ready to move out of the room when he pulled me by my elbow and the next second I was pushed on the visitor's chair. He trapped me completely by keeping his palms on the arms of the chair. "I tried to tell you patiently.", I scoffed at his words. Patience and he don't go in a single sentence. He gripped my chin making me look into his eyes."Now listen carefully Miss, I want you for my niece as her babysitter. Tell me how much you'll take and we can seal the deal." This time it was me who blinked once, twice and thrice. "But I don't want to work for you." See the reason was absolutely clear. I liked the kid since the moment I met her but I hated this man from the moment I gazed into his eyes. "How much?" I frowned."You really think your money can make everyone dance on your tips?" "1200 dollars a week." I rolled my eyes making him lean towards me." 1500?" "Make it 15000 and still I won't work for you.", I retorted and pushed him. I walked to the door and gave him one glance."Next time when you talk to me, make sure you keep all your richness aside. That's one thing that I never want to see you again, you self-centred CEO." "We shall see." . . . Brave but lonely. Passionate but sensitive. That's Arielle Summers. For everyone, Money, Assets and happiness may be supreme but to her, self-respect is prime. Cold and reckless. Commanding and ruthless. That was Nicolas Arnold. He only cared for his niece, his Mama and his friends. Love life didn't exist until- she came into the picture. *No Toxic Relationship. No ex-crush/lover/fiance/wife. The male lead is the uncle of the child in this book, he's not a manwhore.
