Adrien Stone - 28 , Multi billionaire bachelor, CEO of Stone Enterprises - a multinational company, but the company is still under his Grandpa's ownership. Also is hot and sexy as hell with hazel eyes and brown hair, but hey, aren't they always playboys... No he is not but still don't do serious relationships and has occasional one night stands. But beware.. looks can be deceiving.
What happens when to protect the company, Adrien has to fulfill his grandpa's wish and Emerson can never have a say in the decision, they are tied in a not so 𝘩𝘰𝘭y matrimony.
This isn't cliché even if the younger Leone daughter is angry for not being chosen as the bride, cause some bonds are destined to be destroyed, some secrets are ment to be spilled and some hearts are fixed to be destroyed again. Let's see how can Emerson survive her nth heartbreak.. Will she break or snap?
*********************
"Don't think this marriage is something, its nothing and means nothing to me. Let's make this clear so if you find myself with another women or relationship don't cry and think I cheated because there was nothing to be cheated on in the first place."
And just like that she heard and felt the deep crack in her heart for the '𝘯𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦'

Gem in the Rough
"Did you know that you just pull me in? I can't stop thinking about you." Kieran's eyes are shut, his head against the back of the couch, while making his confession. I guess he had moved in the few moments I'd been in my own thoughts. "Is that a bad thing? I feel it too." He opens one eye and grins. "No, I don't think so. I just don't know if I'm ready." "Ready?" It's silent for a few moments before I feel his warm, rough palm on my bare thigh. It's like all my senses are ignited when he touches me. All I can feel is his hand, all I can smell is his beautiful manly scent, and all I can see is him in front of me, the rest of the world invisible. "Is it okay that I'm touching you?" I let out a deep breath and lean closer, whispering near his ear. "Is it okay that I want you to touch me more?" Kieran's eyes open, his blazing blues stare into my dark brown ones, a slight growl coming from his throat. That growl will be the death of me. -- Gemma is a junior in college who is focused on work and school. There's no time for anything else according to her father and it begins to weigh on her heavily.

Gemma is confident, yet shy; organized yet anxious. She's the epitome of an overweight college student with daddy issues. And mommy issues. Just issues in general. - Kieran is a junior in college who is focused on surviving. There's alcohol, sex, and anything else that can keep him out of his own head. Kieran is from a small town that holds a dark part of his past and he's doing anything he can to forget. He is moody, goofy, and mysterious. He's also so much more than anyone thinks. When Gemma and Kieran cross paths, it's a twist of fate that will change their lives forever. Join them on their journey to self-discovery and finding love for themselves, and for one another.Complete
Darling, Come Water the Flowers Vol. 1
"Having sex won't make me less mad at you," I reprimanded, knowing it didn't matter what I said because I wanted nothing more than for him to make love to me. I wanted to feel his hands in my hair, against my arms and legs, down my hips, the inside of my thighs, gently around my throat, toying with my lips. I needed him to understand and see every inch of my body and then to still crave it. I needed this to go right for once, just to prove to myself the first time wasn't how it's always going to be. "True," He murmured against my ear, sucking a tender spot on my neck, lapping at it as my arms circled his head, pulling at the brunette strands of hair. "But it'll make you appreciate me more." __________________________________ 𝐒𝐢𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐄𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧 was raised from the ground up knowing nothing but comparison and perfection.

But Dominic-the silver-tongued patriarch-saw through her before she unpacked her bags. She likes his attention, his gifts, the way he makes her feel seen. She likes the way he fucks her, too. Dominic's married-but his wife Bianka is never around, and Adri doesn't care. To Dom, Adri is more than a distraction. She's beautiful, smart, and dangerous enough to make him imagine forever. But maybe she's just another trophy-something to own, to parade, to keep. Then there's Matthias. Dominic's son. The one who won't give her the time of day. She should leave Mattie alone. Instead, she aches for him, chases the thrill of his indifference, until lust turns into obsession-for both of them. In this house, desire is currency. Boundaries don't exist. And Adri-lonely, self-destructive, desperate to be loved-finds herself pulled into a spiral of obsession, betrayal, and impossible hunger. She thinks she can keep them all. She thinks she can survive their poison. But everyone here is a villain-and she might be the worst of them all.Complete
Just Revenge (#1)
I looked at his eyes and put up a strong face. His eyes bore into mine as much as mine into his. It was like he could read my mind and reach out to my soul just by looking into my eyes. I tried to read his thoughts, too, but it felt like he had blocked me out this time. Nothing seemed clear to me anymore. Tears were burning behind my eyes and threatening to pour out. I forced myself to hold them back and asked him, "Just revenge?" Without a ting of emotion on his face, he said, "Just Revenge." ********************************************* Amelia Lawson had a perfect life.
