Paper Cuts Blurb
Rozenn Eirwen, a bright law school graduate, has just landed her dream job at Grey's Law Firm-one of the most prestigious firms in the country. Ambitious and eager to prove herself, she quickly learns that success at Grey's comes with intense pressure, long hours, and the need to keep emotions strictly in check.
Evander Grey, the enigmatic and disciplined son of the firm's formidable owner, Lucian Grey, has spent his life upholding the family's name. As a senior figure at the firm, he is known for his sharp intellect and colder-than-glass demeanor.
But when a high-stakes case throws Rozenn and Evan together, cracks begin to form in their professional facades. What begins as mutual respect soon blossoms into something neither can deny. In a place where relationships are liabilities and reputations are currency, their secret romance becomes a risk they can't afford-but can't resist.
As the walls close in and the pressure mounts, Rozenn and Evan must choose: keep their love hidden behind office doors, or confront the truth and fight for a future that could cost them everything.
In a world of cutthroat ambition and carefully guarded hearts, Paper Cuts explores what happens when love dares to surface in the most unexpected of places.

DEADLY DECEPTION
#BOOK 1 of The Deadly Series In a world where trust is a luxury, secrets are deadly, and love is the most dangerous weapon of all... Avery Caine thought she was just another orphan with a quiet life-until the brutal murder of her guardian shatters everything she knows. Now, hunted and tangled in a past she doesn't remember, she has only one choice: trust him. Rick Conrad. Cold. Dangerous. A man with too many demons and not enough patience. He works in the shadows, fueled by vengeance, but when his path collides with Avery's, the last thing he expects is her-defiant, tempting, and completely off-limits. But danger has a way of pulling people together. And sometimes, the line between hate and desire is razor-thin. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🔥 "Piccola," he murmured, tilting his head slightly. His voice was smooth-dangerous in the way it sent a shiver down my spine. "Even when I've warned you a million times about rolling your eyes at me... you still make the same mistake." My throat dried. He leaned in, his lips ghosting over the shell of my ear. His next words were a slow, deliberate whisper. "Or maybe..." His fingers trailed up my arm, featherlight. "You do it on purpose." I swallowed hard. "Maybe you want to make the same mistake again and again... just to be punished." My breath hitched. I bit my lip, and the moment I did, his gaze dropped-straight to my mouth. Something in his eyes flickered. Darkened. Before I could even think, his lips crashed against mine-hard, demanding, leaving no room for hesitation. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As enemies close in and the past refuses to stay buried, Avery and Rick must decide-survive apart or burn together. One thing's for sure. They were never meant to fall in love. But it's far too late for that.Complete
