amateur cozy detective mystery sleuth

Husband-and-wife amateur sleuths Tom and Darla Booke are my take on Nick and Nora Charles—by way of Nero Wolfe and his right-hand man, Archie Goodwin. I had an epic saga in mind for them, which would have taken me something like 30 years to write it in its entirety. I wrote the following story before I came to my senses.

British female sleuth, Daisy Dunlop, thinks she's found her dream job. Too bad she has to work with her worst nightmare, private investigator Solomon Liffey. They've barely spoken since he took her husband's request to keep her safe far too literally and handcuffed her to the kitchen sink. Solomon has no interest in babysitting a new partner, especially this one. The woman's a bleedin' liability. She has no concept of danger and could flirt for England at the next Olympics. As if that isn't bad enough, she has a habit of sticking her nose in where it's not wanted, including into Solomon's very private life. Determined to keep Daisy safely out the way, Solomon sets her the task of finding a missing person. Her investigations land her in the middle of his case. Bullets fly, bombs explode, and the number of murder victims keeps rising. When Solomon goes missing, the tables are turned. Now his future is in Daisy's hands.

Kisses For A Devil by xpeachgirlx

*Highest ranking /7/ in romance* /1/ in humor* "Ms. Sanders?" He said in his deep and sexy voice after scrutinising me from head to toe. ''Sir.''I gulped loudly before I said, ''I'd like to give you a blow job." ******** Jane Sanders is a personal assistant of a playboy billionaire Leonardo Vincenzo. He hardly noticed her as a person. For him, she is a Robot who follows his commands and does everything from managing the meeting schedules to get rid of his regular one night stands without even complaining. They are the opposites of each other and the thing with being opposites is that when they get too close it's hard to resist. Circumstances make them realize that they both need each other whether it's professionally or emotionally. One challenge, two overdramatic families and a myriad of aww spawning kisses is enough to cast a spell of love.

Bitter Heart √ by Crystal7016

Caden Miller. Hot, cynical, and notoriously labelled the bad boy of Crestmont High. Attention-seekers flirt with him. Idiots fight with him. The ones who know what's good for them, stay away from him. If you fight him, you know you'll lose soon. Short-tempered, mysterious, and those oh-so-hot looks. All of that was enough for a person to fall head over heels for him. If only he cared to give a shit about them. Not when he was also the youngest gang leader in New York City, with just one mission in mind: stop his equally cynical brother from ruining his life more than he already had. Skylar Anderson. Not a nerd. Or a cheerleader. All she cares about is her workaholic (and maybe even a little dysfunctional) parents, her adorable cat and her not-so adorable best friend, and her sleep. Quite literally. Living a normal and carefree life, trying her best not to flunk Physics, there wasn't anything more that she wanted. Until she receives a letter in her mailbox... ...and that normal, carefree life goes right above the clouds. . . .
