Fifty Shades as it was meant to be ... 

Tristan Shade is accustomed to always getting his way. A man with the world at his fingertips, there isn't anything he can't have. Or anyone he can't conquer.

On the cusp of finalizing his divorce, he's free to do as he pleases. And he has his eyes set on a prize too
captivating to ignore. Her reluctance only adds to the intrigue. 

Tristan Shade always gets his woman.

Laura Pierce is no man's doormat. And she isn't accustomed to accepting failure. She's a woman who's fought and clawed to ascend the ranks in a field dominated by men. Making her a force to be reckoned with.

But in the corporate world of Executives and Investors, money drives the bottom line and unfortunately she just doesn't have enough of it.

A proposed merger with Shade Enterprises could solve all of her problems. All she has to do is...submit. Can Laura separate business from pleasure?

Does she even want to?

In the high-stakes world of billion-dollar deals and corporate empires, Aiden Thorn reigns supreme. Ruthless, powerful, and feared by all, he has built his empire with a cold, calculating mind and an iron grip on everything he controls. But beneath the surface lies a man tormented by shadows from his past, unable to trust and desperate for control. When a hostile takeover threatens his empire, Aiden is forced to strike a deal with his fiercest rival. The price? An arranged marriage to the rival's youngest daughter, Evelyn Hart-a woman as innocent as she is naive, who has always lived in the shadow of her more glamorous siblings. Thrust into a marriage she never wanted, Evelyn must navigate the treacherous waters of Aiden's world. She finds herself captivated by the man who is as intimidating as he is magnetic. But as Aiden's possessiveness grows, so too does her realization that his darkness runs deeper than she could have ever imagined. Drawn into a web of secrets, deception, and dangerous obsessions, Evelyn uncovers the truth behind Aiden's need for control. As forces beyond their control threaten to tear them apart, Evelyn faces an impossible choice: save the man she is beginning to love from his inner demons or escape the dark romance that binds them before it consumes her. *His Innocent wife* is a gripping tale of love, obsession, and the thin line that separates the two. In this intoxicating story, passion collides with danger, and the heart is tested by the darkest of secrets.

"C- Can you move b- back a little?" My words made him smirk and if it's even possible, he came closer. Why do I always have to stuck between him and the desk?! "Why? Am I making you nervous?" "No." I lied. Ofcourse, he was making me nervous. His eyes had the power to hold a person on his place and that's what his eyes were doing to me. "Really?" He asked, putting his hands on my waist and pulling me closer towards him. On instinct, I put my hands on his chest. I didn't like it. I didn't like the way my body was responding to his touches. "T- This is un- unprofessional." I choked out the words, but I wish I couldn't have. He brought his face closer, so close that I could feel his minty breath on my lips. My lips parted accordingly in shock. "Oh, is it?" He said, mockingly. Oh god! What have I gotten myself into? •••• Aaron Steele, the CEO of the multi billionaire Steele's Company was the eligible bachelor of 25. He always had his way among girls and having blue eyes, a chiseled jaw and a hot body, didn't help either. With new woman on her arms every other day, he was obviously not planning on falling on that cliché word also called love, but would his thoughts of not falling in love still remain the same, after meeting her? Sienna Collins was a girl of 22 with extremely shy personality. After completing her graduation, the only thing in her mind was to get a good job and settle on her own, but what she didn't expected was a job at Steele's Company. This is a story of the innocent and the sinful. Read inside to find out what happens when two persons from exactly opposite worlds collide together. #I would suggest 14+ to read this story as some part in the book contains mature scenes. ~ # 37 in Romance #12 in humor *I am not a grammer nazzy, so there would be grammatical mistakes.*

"you're no one to me", his words echoed in my ears but what was it all when he kissed me; merely an illusion? It felt so real and lively. "...and just so you know, you're not allowed to leave this job until or before 6 months", he flung the contract papers in the air. I had signed the papers, the terms and conditions clearly meant that I was supposed to work for his company and had no right to leave it until his consent. "Leave my cabin for now", he ordered as he turned behind. ********** Amanda Waters is your typical College student who happens to face a lot of financial difficulties and as a result, is made to earn a living. She's blunt, She's sensitive but she is also accompanied by two of her best friends in this story: Gina Sullivan and Francis Rutherfold. The enterprise which she works in is different, very different. In fact, the 'CEO' is not just another Happy go lucky male lead of the company. Aaron Reynolds- Rude, Arrogant, Harsh, and Stubborn. He's what they call an eccedentesiast. They say that a person who defines negative adjectives has a lot more inside them, the darkness in that person may overrule all the Positiveness. Well, with Aaron, it's hard to say. But...What if Amanda already had a face-off with 'The CEO' before working in his firm? What if she had already drawn a thick line of hate? What if egos of the same level collide? What then? True Love? More like an illusion! An illusion that poses a life threat. An illusion with the ability to make you believe in non-existent things such as; fairies, demons, fate, and even destiny! Ironic is it not? What we as humans happen to rely on.
