Nicholaus Downes is being charged with first degree murder of his girlfriend Cassandra Rye. Amelia Perry is one of the jurors on the Downes case and from the moment Amelia's eyes met Nicholaus's in the courtroom, she is not only attracted to him, but she believes that that he is innocent. As the case is presented and the evidence only proves his guilt how can she send the accused to jail when she doesn't think he did it? Can she make the other jurors see that he didn't commit the crime they say he did?
Amelia's friend Bridgette Logan has been following the Downes case from the moment it was in the news. Not that she knew Cassandra, but they had some connections, and she believed that Nicholaus Downes is innocent too. She wants to prove it, and maybe it could be possible with the help of a stranger who is more connected to the case than she knows.

Spying On My Boss |REWRITING|
REWRITTEN AS "HER SECRET INVESTIGATION" A series of past murders catch the attention of the police and the media. All the people who were killed were women, all of which had some sort of relationship with a well known and successful businessman named Asriel Parker. For some reason, the murders all point to him as the number one suspect and connection between them. The reasonable thing to do is to put him behind bars but there is one problem. "Everyone is innocent in the eyes of the law until proven guilty." There isn't a shred of evidence that actually pinpoints Asriel Parker as the culprit. With that statement in mind, Selena March, a good police officer and detective is sent undercover as his live-in Personal Assistant to dig up whatever information she can use to put the murderer behind bars. Selena has no idea what she signs up for but she knows for a fact that falling in love is not part of the whole 'undercover' mission. **** This is my first wattpad book and unfortunately, it was not really planned but I still enjoyed writing it and developing my writing skills while I was at it😊.

Indecorous
(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.Complete
