The Billion Dollar Affair [#7]
Tristan couldn't help but chuckle. "Is that what it is? You want a fairy tale love?" "And some great sex." "I thought I was giving you that." There was a spark in her eyes that could have either been disappointment or lust. Tristan knew it was both in that moment. "I need more than just fifteen minutes every Friday night." "It used to be everyday." She nodded, as if she could remember every sexual encounter from the moment they met to this very one now. "I want the thrill of possibly getting caught. I want to be fucked, Tristan. This is the first night we're alone in this house in weeks, and you haven't even tried to fuck me." He stood, walked over to her, and pulled her against the erection in his pants, teasing her erected nipple beneath her thin t-shirt. "You didn't think I would bend you over and fuck you anywhere I'd like?"Complete

I Love that You're in My Life
Eighteen-year old shy Alana has never been kissed by a guy, or been in a relationship of any sort. When the popular and cheery Gino starts to show interest in her, she waves it off as it being his character. But after eighteen years of practically no experience in the romance department of life, Alana finally starts getting what she's hoped for. And yet, she still asks herself the questions, "What is love? Is it truly worth it?" just as she had when she was single. Note: There will be sensuality and sexual material as the story progresses (from chapter fourteen). Note 2: This is a feel-good romance story, not the typical dramatic high school story filled with angst. Disclaimer: The names of shops, companies and other locations are purely made up for story purposes and not related to any shops with similar (or same) names in any way and, if so, are purely coincidental. *Cover courtesy of omg_poptarts!Complete
Single Dad (Reduced to sample due to publishing)
When Carrie Webber applies for the job of a live-in nanny to a three-year-old little girl, Charlotte, she didn't imagine her father to be a tall, dark and handsome, mean and moody man that made her heart miss a beat and her skin tingle and burn when they touched. The interview hadn't gone particularly well and she was convinced that he was going to finish it with the polite rebuttal of 'thank you for your time and I'll be in touch' and thought that was probably for the best. He didn't, he introduced her to his mother as his daughter's nanny and then showed her to her accommodation in his home. When Gabriel Caldwell decides to appoint a nanny for his beloved daughter Charlotte, nothing could have prepared him for Carrie Webber. He wasn't sure she was the right candidate for the job. She seemed young, maybe too young, but there was more, she came across as nervous, flaky and lacking in focus. He was even less sure of her suitability as he sat opposite her imagining what she looked like naked. At that point he had decided he would thank her for her time, cover her expenses for the day and put as much distance between them as possible. That was the plan, right up until the point where he introduced her to his mother as Charlotte's nanny. Maybe it would be okay. Or maybe it wouldn't judging by the crackle in the air and the burn he felt when he touched her.Complete

Off Limits
REWRITTEN VERSION NOW FULL ROMANCE STORY One night. No rules. And definitely no falling in love. She was supposed to forget him. The cocky smirk. The way his hands lingered just a second too long. The heat of that night that blurred every line she swore she'd never cross again. It was a mistake... Until she walks into his office. Now he's her boss. Arrogant. Untouchable. Infuriatingly irresistible. A man who knows exactly what he does to her-and enjoys every second of it. He pushes her limits. Tests her control. Gets under her skin like no one ever has. And the worst part? She lets him. Because behind the sharp suits and sinful confidence, there's something broken in him. Something dark. Something that makes him pull away the second things get too real. He says she deserves better. He says he'll ruin her. But every heated glance, every almost-touch, every stolen moment says something else entirely. This isn't just a game anymore. It's obsession. It's temptation. It's a dangerous fall she might not survive. And this time... walking away might hurt more than staying.
