They say that desperate times call for desperate measures. That may be true, but only a quality of a person's heart can justify whether those measures are good, in spite of the situation, or bad in the glorification of it. A person's heart, and therefore their actions, are what can make a bad situation worse or better. 

There wasn't a person that knew her that would have said Christine Kittredge had a bad heart. In fact, it as widely believed that the Kittredge family as a whole didn't have a bad bone in their bodies, as they went out of their way to be kind to everyone...even those society frowned upon. 

When the Great Depression arrives on the Kittredge's doorstep, Jack Kittredge is laid off and forced to look for work in Chicago. In the meantime, Mary and her daughters, Christine and Kit, open their house to boarders in order to make ends meet. Christine, as someone who's heart has always had a special place for those less fortunate, rises to the occasion and does whatever she can to lighten her mother's load...in the process getting rather close with the Hobo boy who has been working on their house in exchange for food. 

When a series of crimes begin taking place at the Kittredge's house and surrounding areas, all signs point to Will as being the culprit. It is now up to Christine, her wannabe-reporter little sister Kit, and their friends, to prove Will's innocence and find out what really happened to their stolen money. 

All the while, Christine must navigate her feelings for Will, who holds her at an arms' length due to their polar-opposite social standing. But, maybe its true what they say.

Desperate times really do call for desperate measures.

(18+ EXPLICIT CONTENT) "Attract a lot of attention, huh beautiful?" His voice hit me like a wall, absurdly catching me off guard. It was deep, sensual, something any girl (or boy) could melt over. I was sort of speechless, yet trying my best to appear unafflicted. "Only the wrong ones." That was definitely drunken me talking, as I didn't usually have that much confidence. His lips twitched up into a smirk, expressing that he understood my comment. "Does that mean that I'm in that category?" My palms began to grow sweaty and my heart rate picked up, but otherwise my body remained relaxed, appearing completely fine. It similar to when you're on autopilot, completely withdrawn due to intoxication. "I suppose not," I crossed my arms, putting on this seductive persona just for him. This fueled his smirk, about to murmur another comment before I cut him off. "You'll have to show me, though." *** Amelia Hollis was a 23-year-old writer at one of the local publishing companies, assisting a very handsome man and writing articles left and right. Her and her best friend, Aviary, lived together in a cute little apartment off the central part of the city, yearning to create new memories and important moments. Amelia always lived for the moments, taking in every little detail and savoring it like it was her favorite meal. She was an optimist, hoping to change peoples lives with her dreams. James Vallette was a 34-year-old CEO, building his company from dirt with the help of his brother. He was a realist, not really having time to deal with dreams or even love. He knew this the night he laid eyes on Amelia. It was only casual; what harm could a one-night stand do? Oh yeah, he's her dad's boss.

I stepped forward and asked, "Where do you want me?" It took me a second to realize what I just said. Shit! I placed a hand on my crimson face and muttered, "Get your head out of the gutter! You know what I meant." He laughed, his voice sounded hoarse and deep even when he's laughing. I peeked at him from the gap I made between my fingers. He was close. So close. He grabbed my hand and took me to the bed. Damn! It did sound sexy. His shirt was loose. Too large for me, and it hung on me like a cloth hung on a hanger. He sat on the bed, criss crossed and pulled me to him. ♡♡♡♡♡ The thing about love is... its unpredictable. Even when you don't want love, it just happens.

"And how does that make you feel?" "You want to know how I feel when she refuses to suck my cock?" Red blotches donned on Isabella's cheeks. He had no filter whatsoever and the way he was talking to her like a crass son of a bitch was scalding. However, this is her job. She had to hear him out. "Yes tell me." She tried not to swallow the discomfort she was feeling all of a sudden. "Horny." See? No filter! The man was so....There were no words yet Isabella took a deep breath to rein in her anger. "Would you like me to prescribe some techniques to control your...situation?" Marcelo leaned forward on the black sofa, his elbows on his knees and he looked dangerously at his psychiatrist. "No. I want your mouth to suck me dry and tug my balls while I finger your wet snatch till you are cumming and screaming." Oh lord. • • • Marcelo DeVille is having problems with his fiancé, Pamela Green. When she suggest him to take up counseling, he didn't have the energy to argue with her.
