THE OFFER is  a STANDALONE adult contemporary romance and a spin-off of the New York Times, Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling novel, THE PACT. You don't need to read The Pact to read The Offer.

A few chapters of THE OFFER will be uploaded to WattPad as a preview for those interested in purchasing the book when it releases in June. The whole book will NOT be on WattPad, HOWEVER, I will have the first two books of my paranormal suspense series, Experiment in Terror, up on Wattpad over the next month or so, as well as some (don't laugh) X-men fanfiction I wrote when I was 19 years old. How about that for variety?

THE OFFER:

Nicola Price used to have it all – a great career, the perfect boyfriend, an excessive shoe collection and an apartment in one of San Francisco’s best neighborhoods. But when she gets knocked up and her asshat boyfriend leaves her high and dry, Nicola’s perfectly crafted world comes tumbling down. And stays that way.

Now, Nicola is the proud single mom to a five-year old daughter and living a giant lie. She can barely afford their ghetto apartment and all the men she dates run when they hear she comes with a child. She’s struggling and scared – and nowhere near where she thought she’d be at age thirty-one.

Her saving grace comes in the form of a tall, handsome and wealthy Scotsman Bram McGregor, the older brother of her friend Linden. Bram understands a thing or two about pride, so when tragic circumstances place Nicola at rock bottom, he offers them a place to live in the apartment complex he owns. It’s pretty much the perfect deal, so as long as she doesn’t mind living beside Bram, a man that, despite his generosity, seems to antagonize her at every turn.

But nothing in life is free and as Nicola gets her feet back on the ground, she discovers that the enigmatic playboy may end up costing her more than she thought.

She might just lose her heart.

I Need To Exchange My Demon, Please by JaideHarley
6 parts Complete Mature
Marcus narrowed his eyes at her and brought a hand up, tangling his hand in her hair and tugging on it so she was looking up at him. "You're asking for it, Mila. I could have you moaning my name and begging for more in seconds," he said, squeezing her ass and rubbing himself against her. Mila inhaled sharply and let out an involuntary whimper, craving to be closer to him, with nothing in the way. "You're all talk," she said breathlessly. "All talk, no action. You talk too much," she said, looking up at him with darkened eyes. "I'll believe it when I see it." Marcus growled, planting another hard kiss on her lips, pinning her to the wall with his body as his hands slid down lower on her ass, fingers curling around her inner thighs and getting dangerously close to where she was already wet for him. "You're going to eat those words, Mila," he said against her lips, pushing off the wall and carrying her towards the bedroom. "You're going to eat them while I fuck you so good you scream my name." Mila is desperate for money. So desperate she is willing to do anything to get it and has tried most things. She reaches the end of hope that she will get the the necessary amount in time to take care of the person who needs it, until she remembers her life insurance. The life insurance she gets through her work could cover everything, the only issue being it requires her death and a suicide-clause means she can't do it herself. Desperate enough to sacrifice her life, she finds hiring someone to do it too expensive and one night while drunk, she turns to her superstitious roots and tries to summon a demon to do the deed for her. Several failed attempts later, she's surprised to discover it actually worked, and a surprisingly attractive demon named Marcus is standing in her living room, refusing to accept her request and sparking a lot of feelings she wasn't expecting to have for a demon from hell. this book comes down Nov 1st, then only on patreon

He watched as her eyes skimmed over his dark eyes and black hair with barely a reaction. He felt his pride twinge a bit so he went further. Lifting his hands, he let the blood drip from them. Her eyes widened slightly and her chin rose. She looked at his hands then back at him. His dark eyes gleamed in a challenge. "You've not harmed me or mine, faery." She spoke out loud. "Blood does not scare me and neither do you. Keep your dog on its leash." Then she turned and calmly walked back inside. Intrigued now, he went to the window of the house and watched as she reassured her mother that the dog was gone "I'll see you tonight, reckless child." He promised softly. **** Marcus felt himself beginning to wake and struggled to stay in the dream. But it was no use. His eyes opened and he released the pillow his hand was gripping. It was the same one that she had laid her head on every night. His head went into the pillow heavily for a moment, breathing in her faint scent. He hated and treasured dreams like that with equal fervor. He rolled over on his back and stared at the ceiling. It had been decades since she'd been forced to break that promise. He lifted his hand and touched the ring that had been her last gift. It had been decades, but it was yesterday. ***I did not skimp on the steamy scenes so consider yourselves warned ok? There are also a few violent scenes that I'll try to remember to put a warning before so you'll have a heads up. Any of the pictures/artwork were found online so I reserve no rights to those just the story. But I do reserve all rights to the story. This story runs concurrently with "Bloody Desire" and "All Roads Lead to Rome" Awesome new book cover is courtesy of @ScarlettOlivier. She's awesome. Check her stuff out.

"I have a proposition for you that will benefit the both of us" "I don't want to hear it!" "Yes you do I know deep down you want to save the farm and your home" "Are you stupid or just deaf? Get out of my apple orchard and off of my land now!" I growl trying to not let his annoying presence distract me from work "Not till you listen then I'll leave" I continue to ignore him "I'm going to take that as a go ahead to speak, I liked that idea you guys had-" "Summer in exchange for saving our farm?" "Yes except I'd like to add my own terms is that okay with you?" "I suppose" I grumble "I want a fiancé in exchange for the farm, so I can please Mum's last wishes, that means staying at my house with us and staying the night, being seen in public with me, hanging out with me etc a normal relationship and of course satisfying my manly needs" copping the phrase he had heard Summer use "Summer would love that" I mutter "That's only my first term, my second term is I don't want Summer" he states gruffly "You want me to find you a fiancé surely being the great David Lawson that shouldn't be too hard" I snort as I start to climb down the ladder but I miss a rung and I'm about to fall to my death, okay that's a bit dramatic, a few metres. My fall of a few metres is cut short by David who catches me in his arms holding me firmly to his rock hard chest "I don't want Summer or some random town girl, I want you Maddie" he murmurs huskily into my ear sending a wave of desire through my body that disgusts me. I fight out of his arms till I'm on my own two feet. The rich douche wants me and I have a feeling this won't bode well for me. * * An excerpt, like it? Try it😌
