It's been a long time since Melinda Gates has seen her ex, Drew Perkoski. Since they were both college freshman to be exact, and she can't believe he's there, in her local Starbucks of all places. Fast forward 6 years later after graduation, she has a happy  and stable life with good friends and family. She has an obsession with Star Wars and Nutella, and when you put her and her best friend Darcy Shields together they are joined at the hip. 

 What she didn't expect is that he'd become extremely handsome and beautiful. Her current boyfriend Jake Gayle is hiding something from her and she  doesn't want to know. She's starting to feel detached to everything recently and she doesn't know what the cause of it is. But she's asking herself the wrong question, instead of what, who.

"So are we ever going to trust each other?" "Of course we will." He says while also leaning forward showcasing his smile and pearly whites. "So confident Mr Reed." "Of course Miss James. I've read enough books. Watched enough movies to know that the unexpected always becomes the inevitable. In this case myself and you." I lean back and take a swig of water then finally respond, "We'll see if that's true or not." April James had everything any woman could ever want in her life. She had her happily ever after. However, all it took was one ounce of greed to take everything away... After 4 years of working in the same place the memories start to get harder to bear. April's worked too hard to not let anyone take this away from her, even her tormenting memories. How is she surviving? No distractions. Until one day she stumbles across a drunk Alexander Reed. This man is undeniably attractive and also one of the worlds most famous and eligible billionaires. After April helps this mystery guy he can't help but become intrigued about April and why she's so closed off. He's always been used to getting what he wants but he realises it's not an easy game with this woman. Alex goes against his own rules and want to pursue a friendship with April even if she resists. Can she get over the fact that people like Alexander Reed are the ones that caused her so much pain? Maybe they can heal each others wounds? Maybe they aren't as different as they think they are.

''There is only one thing crossing my mind right now. If he hates me so much, then why the hell is he kissing me back?'' ----------------------- Emma White has always been kind of a loner. Her mother died giving birth to her and her father never really cared, always working in his successful company. That's why she decides to go to a college away from home, something she's been dreaming of since she can remember. However, what happens when at her very first day on campus, she crosses path with Noah Allen? He is rich, popular, cold, rude and a player just to start with. No surprise she calls him Mr. Grumpy. What is driving her insane though is that he's only too cold when it comes to her. After some not so pleasant moments and lots of glares, she tells herself that the best is to stay away from him, but it won't be that easy. After a disastrous kiss and hidden jealousy, she finds herself deeply involved into what is this frustrating boy. Add to that the fact that he is her roommates' childhood best friend and you can see drama from miles away. Noah claims to hate her ever since they met, and he doesn't mean her first day of college. He remembers her just fine from a couple of years ago and all the feelings are back. He knows she doesn't remember him and he'll use this as his leverage to do what he has to do. It's what he promised his father and himself, even if it means he has to pretend to care for her. All he cares is his family business. At least it's what he tells himself, until the feelings start getting too mixed and he ends up thinking of her more than he should. Maybe it's not all about business after all. He knows their history started before she even knows, what he didn't expect was for her to be so different from what he has always believed.

{Sorry about the mistakes. I'm fixing things, I might even change the cover, but enjoy this version!!} ][}{][ I'm not perfect, I'm nowhere near perfect. I'm not rich, I'm not the hottest man in the world, but I can tell you want I am. I am a man who learned to love, I am a man who got heartbroken on my favorite holiday. I am a man who found his purpose, a man who learned that it's okay to be young and dumb and to give all of your heart to the ones who matter. I learned to forgive and forget. I learned to go far, but not too far where I forget who I am. I'm not rich, I'm not the hottest man in the world, but I'm enough and enough is enough for me. Oliver Stone is struggling, but when he met her, he knew he had a purpose. He doesn't know why bad things happen to him all the time. But he knows he still has a purpose to live, a purpose to love, a purpose to be enough.
