Nikki Thompson has a good life; she adores her job, has friends who love her, and her mum is her best friend. But even if she won't admit it to anyone else, she's lonely; her last relationship left lasting scars, and she doesn't want to go through that again, but when she meets Jack Sullivan in a bookstore, she gives love a chance. But the journey to true love is never easy, and many obstacles stand in her way. Some are from people outside of her budding relationship, and some are self-inflicted, her anxiety getting the best of her, making her wonder if she's ever meant to be in a happy relationship.
Can Nikki work through these obstacles and make it to the other side with Jack by her side, or will it be too much to bear?

Worth the Risk
August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))Complete
