Detective James Lawson is a seasoned cop who has seen his fair share of tragedy. When he discovers a young girl named Emily slumped against a wall, barely clinging to life, he feels an inexplicable pull to help her. As he tries to save her from the brink of death, he learns that she is deeply addicted to drugs, and that her addiction began after the death of her brother. Despite the challenges they face, James becomes determined to help Emily break free from her addiction and overcome the trauma of her past. As they navigate the complexities of their relationship, the lines between duty and desire begin to blur, and James must grapple with his own ethical principles as he tries to save Emily's life and win her heart.

I suck at writing. This is my first completed book so I apologize. The ending is also a bit rushed but please check it out!

This is a seven-chapter preview of a full-length published novel. Buy links: Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XQYVSVV Kobo: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/breathe-76 iBooks: https://itun.es/us/d_Yajb.l Check out the companion novel, Whisper! Free on Wattpad. ********** A GOOD MAN, FALLING APART Small town police officer Simon Labelle repressed his attraction to sexy shopgirl Leona Chaisty for years. He's good at controlling his feelings--or he used to be, before the bombing that he can't solve, that he should have prevented. Now, after a chance encounter with Leona at the lake, Simon can't get her out of his head. All those high school fantasies roar to life. A BAD GIRL, WISHING FOR MORE Leona is drawn to the intensity in Simon's pretty-boy blue eyes, but he's a good man, and she's not just hopelessly kinky--she'll never know how to love. Still, unlike everyone else, Simon acts like she might actually have a heart. The more time they spend together, the more she wishes he were right. A CHALLENGE NEITHER CAN RESIST After a second unsolved case pulls them together, their sexual chemistry rattles them both, and hints at an unsettling fetish that Simon struggles to suppress. Leona pushes Simon to decide what he wants--whether to dominate, submit, or some mix of both--while Simon, already falling for his dream girl, finally gets her to admit that she's lonely. Each challenges the other to reveal more, to cede control, to be vulnerable. But they're both more fragile than they appear. It's only a matter of time before one pushes too hard, and the other breaks.​ ********** Trigger warnings for depression, suicidal ideation, and possibly alcoholism. Significant child abuse (neglect only) is also part of a character's backstory. There is gender-bending, femdom, and a pretty scary control-based fetish. There is also off-screen violence and death, and mild on-screen violence.

This is actually supposed to be the 5th installation of The Arrangement series but it's the third book I wrote. Feel free to read this while I write the actual 3rd part. Jordyn Kane-Evans is a 27 year old detective working with the Special Victims Unit. When she was younger she came across one of her mums old journals and when she found out about how she had been assaulted she knew right then that she wanted to put creeps like him behind bars. Whilst she had a successful career putting rapists away she wasn't very successful in the dating department. Even though what she did was quite noble, the women she dated couldn't handle it. They worried for her and couldn't take the long hours she had to work, sometimes working through the night. Her mothers worried for her, they just really wanted their Angel to settle down and find a good partner who could be there for her since she would need someone to emotionally support her considering how draining her job could be. Alex Carter, 28, is a prosecutor who takes on all rape cases and occassionally acts as a defence attorney especially when police brutality is involved. She has a deep hatred for cops. Especially Detective Kane-Evans and her sleazebag partner Detective Rivers. But she has no choice but to work with them especially in rape cases.

Alex found her absolutely gorgeous with her long dark brunette hair which was almost black and her blue green eyes, too bad she was an asshole cop just like the rest of them.

But then something bad happens and she finds the only person who she can trust and who can protect her is Detective Kane-Evans. She soon finds out that maybe, just maybe not all cops are bad. Read at your own risk. This is a wlw book and has adult themes like sexual assault and murder.
