Dance with Me: A Boss-Employee Romance
Never fall for your boss... Brooke Masters needs a job. Something safe, steady, and reliable. Losing her accounting gig while caring full-time for her younger sister was a disaster. Now, there's no room for risks-or regrets. Linc Rivers is nothing but both. He's driven, dangerously hot, and in desperate need of help. If he can't save his nightclub, he'll lose everything-and be dragged back to the life he walked away from, including the woman his family still expects him to marry. When Brooke walks through the door looking for work, he knows exactly who she is... and exactly how much he needs her. Their deal is simple: she helps fix the books, he gives her the dance lessons she once gave up. But their chemistry-on and off the dance floor-turns out to be far more complicated than either expected. The steps get closer. The heat builds. And the rules they swore to follow? They're about to break.Zakończone

Emily Heartwood is hopelessly in love with her classmate, Vincent Zaphyr. Only if it was just a fleeting crush. Talking about Vincent - he is not that typical popular guy. Not a sportsperson. Doesn't have any friends. Not a bright student. Not a charmer. Not very outgoing. Nothing special. For an outsider, Vincent does not possess any of the above qualities to be loved one-sidedly. But there's something special about Vincent that has Emily under his spell for the last 5 years. And all these, just for Vincent - who has a girlfriend. ࣪ ִֶָ☾.Zakończone
