Perfect Storm, de JeniRaeD

Enemies to lovers- Boss/employee- Bickering and Bantering- Billionaire romance Second chance romance HEA romance novel If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all. When I saw a job opportunity to work at a resort a few hours north of the cities, including a place to stay, rent-free, I jumped on it. But, unfortunately, what I didn't know was that the one who owned the resort was a man I owed a huge chunk of money to. All because of an accident I still believe he caused. Ian Lockwood isn't like any other guy I've ever met. The man's devastatingly handsome, gorgeous to be exact, and his green eyes are so damn intoxicating and intense that they wretchedly became windows to my soul. But he had one ugly attitude that turned me off. Calling Ian a jerk is an understatement. He's a straight-up asshole. Every time we're around each other, he does and says whatever he can to get my blood to boil. And he enjoys every minute of it. The problem I have with him is that he's an enemy. Yet whenever I'm near him, the irresistible fragrance that pours off him enhances my desires, and the area between my thighs intensively pulsates. And if my attraction to the asshole increases, I'm afraid he'll catch on to those feelings and take advantage of it by using me to pay off my debt. Even though Ian gets under my skin, I find myself falling for him the more bickering and bantering we do every time we're around each other. And if I can't get these uncontrollable desires of being with Ian under control, I'm afraid Ian and I will find ourselves underneath the sheets. That is if I don't see myself knocking him out of his misery before then.

You Can Only Belong To Me, de GalaxyStars833

When I decided to give up on him, He came to me by himself to devote himself completely to me, and showed his possessiveness to me that I never knew existed in the first place. But, what if I didn't want to continue the relationship anymore? Will I have another chance to alternate it? Or am I bound to give myself to him and only him? __________________ Spoiler:~ "Why are you reacting like this? Don't you care about my affairs anymore?" He asked as I felt his face nuzzling in between my neck and shoulders, sending me a jolt of electricity inside of me. I didn't answer him as I kept myself quiet and pretended to sleep. But suddenly, he retracted himself and shoved off my quilt that was covering me, and harshly turned me on my back. My eyes flew open in rage as I was about to burst on him, when I meet a pair of intimidating eyes that belonged to none other than this trash Alex. "Your heart changed, didn't it? Who is it?" He asked as he hit the side of the bed with a great force. But I was confused about what he was even saying, "What are you trying to say?" I asked. And what came was that creepy smile of his that made my heart thump loudly against my chest as a part of me got scared.

With the boundless arrogance of a wealthy and powerful heir combined with the neverending will for justice of a mundane, they declared arch-nemesis against each other and waged war.

The question is, will they give in? *in the process of editing and rewriting
