For 23-year-old Emma Felter, post-college life was supposed to be a smooth ascent up the corporate ladder at a bustling design and marketing firm. But a single wedding invitation from her high school best friend threatens to derail everything, dragging her back into a world she swore she'd left behind. Among her old friend group, where "best life" is a competitive sport, Emma swore she'd never stoop to lying. Until the conversation turns to perfect boyfriends and fiancés, and a desperate "Of course, I have a boyfriend" tumbles out-the biggest lie of her life.
Meanwhile, 32-year-old Peyton Thatcher stands at the pinnacle of his meticulously crafted empire. Everything is precisely where it should be-until his mother issues an ultimatum: find a girlfriend, or she'll find one for him. His plan is simple: a convenient arrangement to appease her. But a snap lunch date means he needs a 'girlfriend' now.
When Emma's panicked lie unexpectedly aligns with Peyton's urgent need, a fabricated romance begins. What starts as a convenient pact to satisfy demanding friends and an insistent mother quickly spirals into something more, forcing them to confront the painful truths they've both tried to outrun. As their fake relationship blurs the lines between pretense and passion, Emma and Peyton must decide if a bond born of desperation can truly become the love of a lifetime-or if their carefully constructed charade is destined to shatter, exposing their deepest fears.

Disaster-in-Waiting NOW AVAILABLE TO BUY ON AMAZON
WARNING R-RATED Disaster-in-Waiting was a dream come true for me. Firstly writing it and then sharing it on here and receiving such a wonderful response to it. It was because of the support and encouragement on here that I finally took the decision to self-publish as an e-book. It is available on Amazon and can be read for free on there with Kindle Unlimited. ****Mature audience only due to adult themes; sex, language and situations**** Eloise Ross is married to Michael, her much older and recently retired husband. He fills his days with golf and walking the dog, while she fills her days working as a newly appointed P.A. to the CEO of an international company. One night, disillusioned with her sexless marriage she goes out alone, drinks beer and dances with a handsome stranger. The moves on the dance floor quickly lead to passion and excitement like El has never known, but it was only one night, one time. Just that once couldn't mean anything, could it? Just that once changed her view on everything she'd ever thought she'd known or valued; her home, family, husband and marriage, but most of all herself. As her life begins to unravel, with twists and turns that make her laugh, cry and despair El has only one constant to hang onto, her handsome stranger. "Because I don't want to end it. I'm not exactly what you'd call experienced," I said with a warm flush creeping up my cheeks. "I thought everything I had, with Michael was an ideal life until that night, when I met you and something switched inside me, a realisation that it was as far from ideal as anything ever could be. I don't think I'm being clear here, sorry. I am not trying to pin my happiness or the consequences of this on you, God, I don't even call you by your first name so to expect anything of you is not realistic!"Kumpleto

His Fake fiancé
Needs to be heavily edited lmao (first wrote when I was like 15) Now, I'm alone with the beast . He stares into my soul causing me to gulp. "You're going to do something for me." He rounds his desk, coming to a stop in front of me. His body towering over my seated self. I look forward facing his crotch, the bulge in his pants making itself known. I make eye contact with him, an evil smirk, he says one word, "suck." .... Grayson Black is the definition of playboy. Unfortunately when owning a large and successful company, image matters especially when your only 27, so he decided to 'commit' himself to a relationship to prove that he's changed his ways. Except the woman he 'commits' himself to is his assistant. When feelings begin to grow on one end and there's a secret surprise on the way, what happens? #15 in romance #1 in employee #2 CEO #1 baby #1 fake love #1 in love lifeKumpleto
