For years, Evelyn has harbored a secret: she's been in love with her best friend, Christian, since childhood. But to him, she's always been like a friend, a sister, never anything more. Only his mischievous younger brother, Kai, knows the truth. When Christian leaves for college at 18, their lives drift apart, with him returning home only for the holidays. Now in their twenties, the trio reunites for a cozy getaway in a secluded cabin, a chance to rekindle old friendships. But Evelyn's carefully constructed world crumbles when Christian arrives with his fiancée on his arm-. Shocked and heartbroken, Evelyn impulsively teams up with Kai in a daring game of make-believe romance, hoping to stir jealousy in Christian. What begins as a harmless charade takes an unexpected turn as Kai's teasing smiles and unspoken kindness awaken feelings Evelyn never expected. Meanwhile, Christian's lingering glances and flirtations spark old flames, despite his fiancée's presence. As emotions spiral and tensions rise, Evelyn finds herself caught in a dangerous love triangle, torn between two brothers-one who's always held her heart and another who might finally show her what true love feels like. Will Evelyn uncover her own heart's desires before the holiday magic fades? Or will she lose everything she holds dear in this tangled web of love and jealousy?

Illicit ✔
**WATTPAD HQ EDITOR'S PICK Nov/Dec 2021** BOOK ONE in the STEAMY FORBIDDEN ROMANCE series Coralie Watson, a British thirty-year-old living in San Francisco, has a tormented past with men. Physical and mental abuse, abandonment issues, incompatibility--she feels like she just can't win, and constantly swears to herself that she'll remain single so she can focus on her burgeoning singing/songwriting career. After twelve years in the United States, she often regrets leaving London, her friends, her habits, and dreams of what life might have been like had she not moved. As she slowly settles into a new routine--and has, so far, kept her vow to stay celibate--her past refuses to give her a break. As she reencounters a former boss she'd had a crush on, someone else resurfaces into her life after many years of silence--a boy she met at fifteen, that she'd had deep feelings for. But now he's all grown-up and irresistibly handsome. She always considered him the "one that got away", and is shocked when he confesses he feels the same way about her. The problem? He's a successful business man who can't afford a scandal, he's married to a supermodel wife, and has two beautiful daughters. Yet none of that seems to stop him from making Coralie promise that next time she's in London, they need to meet and catch up... What's the harm in that? ♥♥♥ This is a work of FICTION. It will have fairly explicit language & sexual content (but I'll put warnings at the top of those chapters, in case those make you uncomfortable--though, hey, YOU CAME HERE FOR THAT, DIDN'T YOU?!)Complete
