Mike Burbank, fresh out of college, believes that a cheery smile and bottomless drawer of fun socks is enough to keep him going at his new career at Infinitech. While all his friends find the work soul-sucking, Mike refuses to let his neighborhood faceless tech company bring him down.

When a senior executive tears down Mike's seemingly perfect sales proposal, Mike is forced to relive his humiliation over and over again in a time loop. Will he win over upper management before his sanity crumbles? Is there a limit to how many times one can hear "TGIF" before one's sanity snaps? Only time will tell...

[GuRia] for the sake of momentum by nandemonaiya29

Lee Minhyeong is the perfect partner to outrageously talented Ryu Minseok. He has trained for years to read Minseok's mind, to catch the smallest gesture, to translate the slightest jolt of his body. And yet, here they are, oblivious to the extent of each other's feelings. Hopefully not for long. As tensions rise with the media and their management after a late-night incident, Minhyeong must ensure he can keep Minseok safe. After all, this is exactly the job he's signed up for offline.

Employed Epoch Of Alex Brook | Book 1| Humor-Romance (Completed) by vineethereader

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused. "Working with my new boss is going to be a piece of work." ** Synopsis: When the CEO of Signature Heights: Jensen Black, and a stubborn employee: Alexandra Brook, clash, it's a battle of wits & a war of perseverance.

His Fake fiancé by letsomebodygo15

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 life

Unbreak Me- Editing by ejane1

An impressive Yale degree. Great friends. An even greater boyfriend and a bright future- she thought she had it all. She thought her life was perfect. She should have thought twice. Hundreds of lies and a single confrontation changed everything she thought she knew. It crushed her both physically and emotionally and shattered her trust of herself, men and love. Broken, scarred and still hurting, all Ari wants to do is get away and take some time to put herself back together again. With the help of her roommate and her new friends, maybe Ari can accomplish stitching her heart up with friendship and polishing it with laughter. And maybe, just maybe, with time she can let go of the past, heal her broken heart and unbreak her trust just enough to risk it once more. Editing- Also Unbreak Me will only be available as a full novel for another two weeks after that it will only be a sample of the first three chapters, but will be available to purchase as an eBook and print on demand. Thanks for understanding. [***The story you are about to read is intended for mature readers due to its sexual content and language. It may not be appropriate for all audiences.
