"I swear to God, if I hear the words Corona and Virus one more time..." I groaned exasperatedly.
"Isn't it kinda like your job to talk about it?" my best friend chided.
"Yeah. It is, sadly." I sighed resigned.
"Well at least you get to travel! I've never been to Europe, I'm so jealous." Sophie exclaimed through the phone.
I looked down at my friend through FaceTime and gave her a withering look. Dripping with sarcasm I replied, "Yeah two weeks, in an AirBnb with a stranger, and reporting on this damn virus. It's going to be a nonstop thrill ride."
Little did I know the thrill that awaited me. And that thrill had a name; Braden.
----
This is the story of two journalists tasked with reporting on the growing COVID-19 pandemic in Italy. They could not be more opposite than they are strangers. But when the pandemic rapidly escalates they find themselves quarantined in isolation together. No friends, no family, just one AirBnB and two strangers.
Will the pandemic end before they kill each other? Or will they find love during the lockdown?

Eva & Her Striker (Book One Of The "And Her" Series) (Unedited)
**TWICE FEATURED ON THE WATTPAD EDITORS CHOICE LIST** **Romance Category WINNER-Community Hub Awards** Have you ever felt your heart beat so fast, that you thought it would burst through your chest? I did... the day I met him. Eva: My younger sister's diagnosis with autism drove my career choices. Thanks to college and hard work, I loved my job as an Autism Specialist Teaching Assistant at the school my sister attended. Making a difference in the children's lives was all that mattered to me, along with my family and best friend, Amber. Until I bumped into him, the special guest coming to talk to the children. With his gorgeous face and sexy Irish lilt, he made my heart pound in a way I'd never experienced before, and I knew I'd never be the same again. Justin: Being signed to a top English club had been my goal since I was a small one. But the move required leaving Ireland behind to start a new life in Liverpool, which would be simple if I didn't have to move my parents and younger brother, Brandon, with me. We'd found him a place in a top special needs school, and I was looking forward to visiting with the rest of the team to check the place out. Of all the things I expected to find there, it definitely wasn't her. All gorgeous smile and mesmerising eyes that made my heart race as if I'd just ran twenty lengths of the pitch. But when Eva falls victim to a ghost from her parents past and ends up in danger, will Justin be able to save her before the final whistle blows, or will it be too late?

The Backpacker's Dream
'No, he didn't'. I was so shocked by the turn of events. Everything was going fine and then suddenly boom, everything turned upside down. I just couldn't believe this. What did he think of himself? 'Leave me alone.' I said firmly but his hold on me was so strong. I was struggling to get out of his bear hold but to no avail. 'Oh!! So, the poor lady thinks that I will leave her alone and just let her go free?' He had that evil laugh and boy, his breath stank. 'Man, you just signed your death warrant and I will do one favour on you.' No one messes with me. 'Ooooh, I am so scared that I almost peed my pants.' Again that idiotic laugh. I counted till 5 and then kicked right in his balls. I turned around and grabbed his hair from roots, jerked them so badly and then gave my hard elbow shot on his chin. Everything happened so fast for one moment he was standing and the other lying on floor wiggling. I charged at him with my cheetah speed, picked up a wooden rod and started hitting him wildly, 'You idiotic stinky breath was trying to steal my backpack. You are so dead.' 'Favour, favour, favour.' He was screaming in pain just after few seconds and was panting hard. I picked my paste from my bag and threw at him, 'Brush your teeth.' I was fuming. I turned around and saw him standing wide-eyed, 'Hi, I am Scarlett.' I smiled showing my 32 teeth. 'I am scared.' His look puzzled me.

Two Week Honeymoon (SAMPLE NOW ON AMAZON)
Standalone Honeymoon for one Rebound/Second chance romance HEA After I embarrassed and left my fiancé stunned at the altar, I ran off to Barbados--the two-week all-inclusive trip Tristan bought for our honeymoon. While trying to forget the man who betrayed me, I met Gareth--a tall, dark-haired, blue-eyed, overly sexy man who had me swooning every time he smiled his playful, flirtatious smile at me. The guy was hot AF, and the more we hung out, the more attracted to him I became. Causing me to let down my guard when I agreed to sleep with him with no strings attached for the rest of our stay. All I wanted was a distraction to help keep me from thinking about what led Tristan to want to try new things and explore his sexual desires. I got what I wanted, but when I left Barbados, I went with more than what I came with. Now I have no idea what to do because the agreement I made with Gareth was with no strings attached--just sex buddies while vacationing. I'm screwed, because the agreement I made with Gareth would've worked had I not been attracted to him, fallen in love with the guy, or left Barbados with a piece of him. I can't see myself with any other guy, and I don't want to be with anyone other than Gareth. Now, I have to do everything I can to find him before it's too late.Concluida

That you're here to sweep me off my feet? Please! I didn't need you all this time, and I don't need you now." He clenched his jaw, fisting his hands. "Enough. Stop being so damn stubborn.

A Summer Affair (SAMPLE! NOW PUBLISHED ON AMAZON)
The best decision I ever made was when I moved to paradise nine years ago. I've met and entertained many beautiful women while living here in Hawaii, with those women changing what I first thought would be paradise and making it to be more of an erotic heaven. I love women, and I love satisfying them. But the only way they make it to my bed is if they're tourists. Why? Because there are no ties, no feelings hurt, no strings attached, and I'll never see them again-just pure innocent sex satisfying both our needs. Now I'm on an airplane, going back to the one place I always said I would never step foot in ever again. Las Vegas. All because Vegas is where my best friend wants to have his bachelor party. Just because I'm not happy to be back in my hometown doesn't mean I can't have fun, right? After all, I can still do what I've been doing in Hawaii here in Vegas as there are always tourists roaming the casinos. Before my friends and I hit the casino, I made a thousand-dollar bet with my best friend that I couldn't land a woman in my bed before we returned to Hawaii-a bet I want no part of after meeting who I did. That bet will come to haunt me after we get back home, especially when we cross paths at my best friend's wedding. I was happy to see her, but she wasn't too pleased to see me, and let's just say somewhere I screwed up because my face not only saw her fist once, but it saw it twice. She just lit the fire in me, and I never thought I'd say this, but I guess my entertaining women days are over because right now, there's only one woman who I want to chase, and that's Leilani.
