After a year, she is awake with no memory of the people around her especially the handsome, sexy doctor who claims to be her husband. But she seems to remember a nightmare she's been having for a year. . . in a coma. Her nightmare not only shatters her whole world, but it brings her closer to the real one. Excerpt🎬: "You like what you see?" He crossed his arms over his chest, aligning his muscles and raising his ash polo shirt which gave her a great view of his Calvin Klein boxers. Being a chicken, she avoided his steamy gaze and gave an excuse to use the toilet. She ran into the master bedroom and she stared into the mirror. Her exacerbated reflection didn't deflect the daring gaze Jonathan had burned into her. "I thought people only ran when they were chased." He spoke from the door, his lean body relaxed on its frame. His voice teased her and pleased her. He moved closer before she could utter a lame excuse. He stopped less than a feet away from her, she cranked her neck to look boldly at him.

The Boundaries of Love
#2nd place Incedia Fandom Awards 2020 He didn't know what to do when in love. He knew he could never do all those things that he often saw in movies; like holding hands, displaying affection or quoting long poetic lines to the girl he loved. All he could do was love . . . Quietly. Maybe that's why he was still single. She was a die-hard fan of romance. Romance, in which a man loves as much as a woman. Romance, in which a man never tries to stake a claim, in which a man loves quietly but passionately. But she knew, she would never meet such a man, who would have all these qualities. Maybe that's why she was still single. *** He is not your usual CEO. He is gorgeous but his gorgeous-ness lies in his intelligence. He doesn't do the usual, no flings, self-reliant yet stays with his parents. She is not a girl who just drools over handsome men.
