What do you do when everyone around you are hell bent on making sure your arranged marriage happen before your 25th birthday?  You run away...

Meet Riley Evans, the perfect All-American girl-next-door with a prominent family name that rivaled the Kennedys and the Rothschilds. Before her eighth birthday, Riley had been betrothed to Phillip Cartwright the third; the son of her grandmother's dearest friend - of the Cartwright International and many more subsidiary companies - the only family her darling-yet-uptight grandmother deemed worthy - and of course, wealthy enough - to marry her first granddaughter. The problem was, they never met. And Riley wasn't going to be shipped off to London to live in a country so far away from her friends, family and most importantly, her book club.

Now meet Phillip Cartwright the third, firstborn of the ever-so recognizable Cartwright offspring with their trademark jet black hair and ice-blue eyes. Not only was Phillip both Harvard and Oxford-educated, he was also handsome, family-oriented, supremely generous and oh-so charming. But this loving grandson wouldn't let his scheming grandmother marry him off to some rich American heiress, no matter how prominent her family name was or how much her family connection could further his business.

When they both embarked on a journey to escape from their own respective fate, a little island in the Pacific Ocean might bring them closer than ever...

"I'm not going to kill you Ms. Harrington, and why, you ask? Well, first of all, it would be too obvious that it was me who killed you since I have all the right reasons to do so. And second of all, I have a corporation to run, a reputation to uphold and too much money to make, so I refuse to waste that all for the sake of fulfilling my only wish and ending your life. My life is too important to be spent in jail for killing you anyways." •°•°•°°•°•°• Katherine Harrington: 22 years old, financially stable, a recent university graduate, fun but assertive. Riddian Remora: 26 years old, much better off than most financially, heir to majority of his family's business, hubristic but unsociable. Katherine and Riddian are practically from different worlds, so when they meet in the worst situation ever, it is really no surprise that the two can't stand each other. After going on a trip that was suppose to be fun and relaxing to one more than the other, the two leave hating each other and promise that they would never cross each other's paths ever again. They seem to realize that fate has different plans a little too late as they meet again when Katherine gets herself trapped in a situation that only seems to work to Riddian's advantage. She makes it her goal to either get herself out of the hole she had dug for herself, or pull the rotten bastard in as well, but it is during that process that Katherine begins to realize what exactly the after effects of her actions on the cursed trip on which they had met, were. Obstacles come along and slowly Katherine starts to put the Riddian Remora puzzle pieces together. What dark secrets will she uncover, and will another after effect of their first meeting be that their thoughts on each other will change as well? Find out in: After Effects

KELLY & STEPHEN Kelly Jane had a huge crush on Stephen ever since the moment she laid eyes on him. Even though he has a bad reputation when it comes to women, she didn't mind at all. She was contented just by watching him from afar. But when he finally noticed her and courted her, she grabbed that chance and said yes. Even though she's been hearing many rumors about him that he's a playboy and doesn't stick on one woman, she turned blind eye and deaf about it. Everyday with him felt like heaven and she thought that nothing that could separate them but she was wrong. She caught Stephen kissing another woman. "You're still a child Kelly and I can't do these kinds of stuff with you so I searched for someone who could give my needs to me. I'm sorry" Those words from his mouth were as bitter as gourd and that killed her love for him. Or so she thought... But what would she do when after three years of not seeing each other, he would appear in front of her again as her bodyguard and the most shocking part was her heart which has been sleeping for years began beating again and it's for the same man that hurt her in the past! And what would she do when she learns the truth about Stephen's real identity? Would she still accept and love him even though he's not what she thinks he is? Highest rank #351 in romance
