In order to avoid being betrothed to his cousin, Monty flees to France along with his best friend Nigel and their Yale buddies.

He eventually finds himself forming a bond with his host, Fritzroy von Köhlen, a German military veteran and fellow aristocrat.

"This was a bad idea," Benny paced back and forth in the room. "It's not that bad," Will assured him. "Yes, it is!" the man was this close to pulling his hair out. His hands were already tangled into the short tuffs. "They're a horrible match, there's no chance of them getting together, let alone staying together, and - DID THEY JUST KISS?!" * Jasper Copperwright is a prodigy. At 21, he's already looking at inheriting his father's multibillion dollar technology company. His intelligence is highly sought after. And with brains, also comes looks that he was blessed with. Men and women everywhere are willing to throw themselves at this handsome devil. It's a shame that they all get met with heartbreak. While they might be fun for a night or two, none of them are worthy of a commitment. Damien Klein is a 19-year-old college student from Germany. He somehow convinced his strict parents to let him go to school at the University of Amor. Dramatic, stubborn, and not one to bite his tongue, Damien keeps his everyday life private from his parents and family. For all they know, he is just going to school to become an editor. Neither of them would have thought that they would meet up. After all, they're both from two different backgrounds. One was able to get whatever he wanted, and the other had to keep everything about himself hidden. When they do find each other, Jasper can't help but be intrigued by the young man, along with the stories he winds up writing. Stuck up Jasper is only going to get in this sassy blond's pants if he is somehow able to look past his own ego and take things a little slower. This writer knows how to hook someone in, but is he able to keep him at the edge of his seat until the very last page? After all that goes down, does he really want to? * Standalone of the "Impress Me Not" series. Third book, if you want to read them in order. Completed!

40 parts Complete Mature

A promise between two business partners results in a gay marriage between two straight archenemies making them question... How Can I Marry A Guy??? This is a Spinoff and NOT a sequel. After the overwhelming response for Coincidental Husbands, I had to come back with this. With almost same set of characters as before; I am rewriting the romance with Coincidental Husbands - 2 in a completely new light. Romantic Comedy.
