awards catfish chicklit cute dates italian novella onc2022 restaurant romance tinder

Annabelle hadn't wanted to burn the restaurant down initially. 

In all honesty, she had been in a good mood. The food smelled great, the weather was perfect, and the boy she had met on Tinder looked like an absolute snack in all his pictures. 

But then, he rocked up to the date half an hour late, without an apology. Worse yet, he didn't look anything like his Tinder photos. 

In fact, he looked old enough to be her uncle. 

Still, she has to admit that, while her date sucks, the food is tasty. Plus, the waiter is also pretty cute. 

Besides, when that same waiter offers her a hand in serving some revenge to her catfishing date, Annabelle just can't say no. 

Does this charming waiter spell trouble? Possibly. 

But, surely, once revenge is served cold, there is always room for dessert, hey?All Rights Reserved

Our Secret To Keep. by ELShorthouse

A delayed flight. A stranger at a hotel bar. A one night stand. Stranded in New York for an extra night than planned due to a delayed flight, I needed to find a way to keep myself occupied, and I soon found that something. It was easy enough when the handsome stranger introduced himself to me as Kade. It has been a while since I have had a hot one-night stand, and he reminds me how fun it can be. There are no questions, expectations or reasons to see one another again. What I don't expect is our night together to come around and bite me in the ass. When I arrive at a family dinner with my parents and two older sisters to celebrate my return home to Scotland, he is sitting right there with them. Not only is he my father's new business partner, but he is my sister's blind date set up by my parents. We pretend to be strangers because things would become complicated if we didn't. No one ever needs to know about what happened between us. My dad would freak out if he found out about us because he is overly protective of me as the youngest, and with the age gap between Kade and me, my father wouldn't approve. My relationship with my older sister is already strained; I don't need to make things worse between us. Even though he doesn't seem interested in her and he tries his best to show that it could still make all hell break lose. My sister hates losing. She always gets what she wants. I should stay away from him, but it is easier said than done with the tension and chemistry between us, and we struggle to fight against it. No matter what happens, it needs to be our secret to keep.

Shattered Sympathy by Uraunde

After getting arrested at an illegal drug party, Tin has been recalled to Thailand, and put under his brother's merciless supervision. When Tul forces him to bring a date to a fancy gala dinner, Tin tells him angrily that he will bring the first person who walks through the door at the IC building. That person turns out to be a football player who just crashed a window in the IC building by accident. This is a one shot fic (that still ended up with 7 chapters) that I wrote because it was too hot outside to concentrate of my multi-chapter fics. It is a bit angstier than my other fics - but it won't have a sad ending, promise. (No sad endings for Tin and Can!) It started out with the realisation that I have seen a lot of fake dating fics where it gets later revealed that for at least one of the people involved it had never been fake. So, this is an exercise on how it could have gone if Tin and Can really went on a fake date as pure strangers.

It Began In Italy | ✔️ by moonlighttkisscs

One last trip with her family before she goes to University. Her intentions for this trip were to spend every minute making memories and savouring the last moments she'd get with her family before she moved away. She did this, just not with who she had planned. In the Italian sun it's easy to make rash decisions and to have a lapse in judgement. Especially when a man, you've only just met, comes into play. When he's showing you the island and teaching you Italian, how can you not fall madly in love? With three weeks to spend, will she let herself fall head over heels for a guy she will most likely never see again, or will she stick with her former plan and come to her senses?

That Cliche Waitress by someone_random111

"Oh, Kiara, there's one more thing I would like to order." the bitc- -- I mean, the woman smiled once again. "Yes?" I asked, returning her fake smile. "Keep your fucking eyes off my man." ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?! THAT'S IT! I CANNOT HANDLE THIS WAITRESS "STEREOTYPE" ANYMORE! 4 IN ONE DAY? SERIOUSLY? OKAY, CALM DOWN, KIARA. YOU. GOT. THIS. HANDLE THIS SHIT LIKE A PRO, BABE. "I think you're missing ONE more TINY little thing in that order of yours, Miss." I smiled at her. "I don't think so." she replied. "Oh, but I do. You definitely need a change of attitude. Don't worry, it's on me." #Wattys2019

Red Lilac by iletomichelle

After five years and a thousand regrets, two old lovers meet again.. "What kind of stunt are you pulling out this time?" I see his eyes blaze in blue fire. And I think I saw regret flash, too, before he blinks it gone. "I am going to win you back." he states as if those are the most natural thing in the world. As if it was as easy as ABC. He went behind his table and sits like a king. He looks at me from head to toe. Did I just saw love in those eyes? But it's too quick; I even thought I only imagined it. "And do you think, buying the company I am working at will help you with your fucking mission on Earth?" I snap taking two steps forward. He stands up, and put both of his hands in the table and lean his body closer to me, putting his weight on his palms. So close, I can even smell his cologne that mixed so naturally with his aftershave. It reminds me of summer. Of him. Of the love we'd shared.

Reunited With The Bad Boy CEO by HeeSha_TA

"I thought what we had was real. I never for once played with the thought that you could be playing me." His hands were running aggressively across his hair. "I was with you for revenge, Shawn. Do you really think you were going to get away with what you did to me?" I queried without remorse. His mouth slowly curled at a corner. "Do you want to know what I'll get away with right now? I'll get away with banging you hard tonight and then dumping you in the morning." In the twinkle of an eye, he closed the gap between us and planted his lips on mine before I could protest. -- Calista Whitaker underwent a traumatic experience at the hands of Shawn Donnelly and his gang at High School. Shawn was holding a night party in his house and had invited Calista to come over and be his date. Calista who had been crushing on Shawn for over five years was elated and gladly went with high hopes. She gave her innocence to Shawn that night but only to wake up the next morning to find Shawn and his friends taking pictures of her naked. Turns out Shawn only approached her over a bet with his friends and soon, Calista's nudes were flying all over the internet. Calista was both heartbroken and humiliated and her parents had to send her to stay with her grandma in the countryside. Six years later, Calista crossed paths with Shawn once again but as a representative of her company to take on the construction project of the company Shawn owned. Past emotions resurfaced the moment the two met again and Calista now wanted nothing more than to make Shawn pay for all that he had done to her in the past.

Cross Roads by Growling_moon

ONC Prompt 76- You show up for a date to discover you've been catfished. You are hungry, though, and decide to go ahead with dinner. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Katie Lovejoy's first date does not turn out to be exactly as she had hoped for. In fact, her date Sam, does not turn out to be who she had hoped him to be. Photos in dating profiles really does not do justice and this is certainly true for Sam, Katie's date for the evening. What happens when a girl already running low on good lucks, gets catfished after putting herself out there after so long? And what happens when you mix in good food, nosy restaurant staff, and an anxious, concerned but superstitious best friend? Follow Katie to find out if this is a recipe for disaster or if something good will come out of this chaos. Disclaimer: All characters and places mentioned in this story are fictional.

Recipe for Love by SmlAlwaysOriginal

Book 2 of the Chimera Trilogy He wasn't really looking for it but when love shows up he has to decide whether he'll accept it or not. New connections, old ties, and surprising revelations are ingredients for lasting love or for instructions to a charred heart. Ecerpt: Mike was tall like Alex, slim like him, had the same blue eyes and black hair. I could only conclude that my brain was looking elsewhere for an Alex substitute. That was not flattering to myself or fair to him. It was easier I guess to pick a fight then actually let myself like him. His eyes flipped to mine again. That eyebrow went up and he smirked. Now he was laughing at me. I straightened and turned to lean against the pole with my back to him. Maybe it was time to find a nice girl to date. The trouble was I hadn't been interested in anyone enough to want to go on a date, and I wasn't the kind to do one night stands. My eyes flipped to Alex. He was smiling and laughing at something Tyler was saying. I was happy for him but if I really let it be felt, I was jealous, a little that Tyler got him and I didn't, but I think it was more that they were together and happy and I had no one. I'd finally hit that age I wanted family and children. "Here." A plate appeared in front of me. I looked around and saw Mike holding it out. "What's this?" "That's commonly known as food. You eat it. I've noticed you favor the mushroom soup, stuffing with gravy and corn on the cob. Here you go." I took the plate. Why on earth had he not only noticed what I ate but brought me a plate of it.
