"What is this about?" you ask, clicking on the little description button.
"Coffee," I answer, rather mysteriously.
"Coffee?" you wonder, puzzlement flooding your face.
"Yes," I answer. "First and foremost this is a story about coffee. A story of steaming cups of deliciousness and how it drastically altered the course of one girl's life."
"How can coffee, regardless of its deliciousness, change one's life?" you ask, about to disregard this story and keep scrolling down.
"That's for you to read and find out," I reply with a mysterious smile. "But I will hint that it involves a girl with a broken heart, a guy with a British accent, laughter, tears, love, heartbreak, and cup after cup of coffee."

Perfect Strangers
Follow my Instagram for any updates and if you have any questions: @nikki_k123 Alex has been living the same life, with the same routine, repeating it every day. Every day is the same. The one thing she does look forward to is going to cafe de l'amour every morning on her way to school, where she sits and writes, all while seeing Carter Reed. The most popular boy at school who, surprisingly, prefers the solitary life. They go to the same cafe every day, sit at the same tables every day, and notice each other every day, yet are strangers who have never uttered a word to one another. And strangers they shall remain. Perfect strangers. But that's about to change. . . . . . I watched as he kept his eyes trained on the notebook in front of him where he aimlessly drew spirals and coils that surrounded each other, trapped each other, and suffocated each other. My eyes traced the movement of his pen, following each line he drew onto the paper. "Your tea." I snapped out of my trance and looked up, thanking Katy before she went back to the counter. I turned back and caught him looking at me. I expected him to look away and continue acting like I don't exist. Like he's always done and so have I. What I didn't expect was for him to walk right over and sit with me. "Hi, I'm Carter." PSA: This story is inspired by the Wattpad novel 'Caffeine' by @meddlingkids ALL RIGHTS RESERVEDComplete

(Exactly what it sounds like. It's really not a love story. ) "Do you like me?" You're straight forward I forget that sometimes. I open the drink and look at it as if it were the most interesting thing in the world. I sigh, it's a habit now, and take a gulp. "So?" You ask again. I put the drink on a table next to your bed and sit properly. "I don't know." I say honestly. You didn't seem fazed but you did seem a bit confused. "What do you mean you don't know?" I shrug and decide that the floor is the next best thing to look at. "I like you." I laugh at this and see you don't. "Don't say that. You don't like me. You don't."

Jack moves as the light turns green. "You know, if there's one book I haven't read, it's Emma by Jane." "No way." Jack nods. "I'm more on a Kafka vibe now." "Oh?" "I'm reading Letters to Milena." "You are the knife I turn inside myself; that is love. That, my dear, is love." He quotes dramatically. Jack smiles. "It's beautiful. How can he have such a vision of life and be so devastatingly in love with her? It's art." "Definitely a favourite of mine. It's so... pure, so raw. It explains what love is, I think. It's such a vague concept." Jack shrugs. "I don't think you can take his letters as a definition of love. Only you know what it means. Because everyone loves differently." Zach takes in his words. "I see." He hums. "So, to know what love is, one has to be loved." "Not necessarily. You can look at your parents and see that they love each other. Or a random old couple in the park. The love is there. But it's different from everyone else's." He nods slowly. "What's love to you?" "I'll let you figure that one out yourself." Jack smiles softly. "Maybe one day I'll tell you." He shrugs. Zach whines. "Ugh, don't be mysterious." They chuckle as Jack parks the car in front of the coffee shop. Jack turns it off. "I'm letting you explore the mystery because I don't know what love is, just yet." He moves to hold his hand. "Not that it means with you, at least." The brunet feels his lips contort into a smile. "That was so cheesy." He chuckles. He rolls his eyes. "I'm trying to be romantic here." He squeezes his hand.Complete
The Choices We Make
Book #1, Choices series *** "Is that what you need Ms C?" Michael said in his deep baritone, his eyes still on the screen. "Passion? Rough fucking against a wall? Or do you need something slow and desperate?" *** We all have choices to make in life. Some have more lasting consequences. Polly became a single mother at fourteen to her now eighteen year old daughter, Sloan. She dedicated her entire life to raising her to the extent of losing herself. But now that Sloan is in college, Polly is ready to start living. Michael is a twenty-three year old recent college graduate. He exclusively dates women much older than himself. He also has a laundry list of sexual appetites that would scare most inexperienced partners. With Michael as her new neighbor, Polly has some choices to make - or will she decide to hand over some of those choices to this persistent and overwhelming man? And what happens when another man, Mason, is added to the mix? Can they survive? **Mature content** Porn with a plot This book won't appeal to everyone. Many kinks are explored - some of which are risky and not recommended in real life (such as any breeding/ impregnating). Some kinks explored (at varying degrees): domination, breeding, primal, exhibition, breastfeeding, age gaps (younger man / older woman), threesome/ménage à trois, polyamory, degradation, praise, and a small nod to MDlb (although nothing is said specifically about that).Complete
