Rachelle Silva is used to getting what she wants. As the beloved protected daughter of a ruthless crime boss, she wants for nothing-except freedom from her overprotective father.

Former fighter Jay Price stays connected with Vegas's criminal underbelly, and for the right price he'll take on any job. But when he's hired to babysit self-centered "princess," Rachelle, he finds himself captivated by the beautiful, spoiled socialite-and annoyed by his sudden attraction to her. Confused by her own attraction to the tattooed "thug," Rachelle sets out to make Jay as aware of her as she is of him. Unfortunately the threats to her life are all too real, and Jay is forced to bring her into "his world" until the threat is...eliminated. But he has an even bigger fight on his hands-his desire for the one woman he's forbidden to have.

Occasionally Yours by wednesdaythebookworm

The tabloids call it a comeback. Their lawyers call it a contract. But for Marilyn May and Manhattan Meyers, it's a dangerous game of make-believe. Fresh out of a quiet rehab, Marilyn is the velvet-voiced singer and bestselling author everyone loves to pity-and secretly root against. Fresh off an eighteen-month bid for aggravated assault, Manhattan is hip-hop's most volatile prodigy, out on bond and one headline away from ruin. Their teams strike a deal: six months of paparazzi kisses, late-night studio sightings, and carefully leaked "love" songs to bury their scandals and rebuild their brands. No feelings. No slip-ups. No exceptions. But behind the camera flashes, addiction still whispers to Marilyn. Rage still stalks Manhattan. And somewhere between staged dates and midnight studio sessions, the lines blur. Every lingering glance becomes a gamble. Every touch courts disaster. Because the only thing more explosive than their chemistry is the truth-and if the truth comes out, it won't just break their contract. It will break them. Occasionally Yours is a razor-edged, slow-burn romance about second chances, dangerous fame, and the difference between playing lovers and becoming one.
