That is until Brielle is stood up at the alter on their wedding day.

But what happens when the past is met up with the present? Can Brielle continue the con any longer? Or will her vulnerability break her heart again?

That's obsession." I stepped closer, my hands framing her face gently, forcing her to look at me. "Then let it be obsession. Let it be whatever the fuck it is, but don't you dare tell me you don't feel it too. _____ Join Evanly and Devon as they navigate the thin line between lust and love, desire and loyalty, in a story where passions ignite and hearts are tested.

"I can't do this ! This is wrong !" she exclaimed loudly, trying to prove her point. "Miracle, I really don't have time for this. I am sure whatever was decided was decided for good. Now quit whinning like a baby and get to work. I don't want our professional lives to be clashing with our personal lives. The rest of the discussion on this topic can be completed at home." He said in an overly calm tone that sent chills down her spine. "Kayden ! How can you even agree to this marriage ? You don't even love me and you have a girlfriend already, for heaven's sake !" Miracle continued ignoring Kayden's demand. This wasn't right ! And she was going to prove it. She was going to make Kayden understand that there is no reason to put their lives on hold just because their parents thought they were perfect for each other. She didn't even feel anything for him other than a feeling of pure friendship. Kayden's giant figure looming over her brought her out of her thoughts. "My girlfriend can be discarded, Miracle. And once again, this discussion is over. Don't ignore my words, baby. I don't like to be ignored." His cool minty breath fanning her face and the fact that he had to literally squat down to whisper to her made her stomach do a weird flip. At that very moment, Miracle realised, that there might be a teeny tiny bit of a MUTUAL ATTRACTION between them. ************************************ This is the third installment in THE ATTRACTION series. To understand more about this story I suggest you read the second installation first. So you will know more about the characters. Other than that it can stand on it's own :) ALL RIGHTS ARE RESERVED !

I can feel his blue-gray eyes digging into the side of my head. I wipe my sweaty palms on my dress and turn my vision away from the moonlight reflecting onto the ocean off of this balcony. Sure enough, he is looking right at me, an intense look in his eye. My mouth feels full of cotton. How can this man make me feel this way after eight years of not seeing him? Nobody else has ever made me feel like this before, except for him. "W-why are you looking at me like that?" I whisper. I'm expecting him to ask me, 'looking at you like what, Darling?' But he doesn't, and something tells me that he knows exactly what I am talking about. "Because, you are just so...prepossessing, Darling." He whispers, and his voice sends a chill down my spine. I shiver. I swallow loudly and drop my gaze to my lap, my hands shaking slightly. What does prepossessing even mean? "Am I making you uncomfortable?" He murmurs. "U-um no." I shale my head slowly. He stands up abruptly, causing me to look at him. His body towers over me, his eyes searching my face for something that I'm not quite sure of, and then he holds out his right hand. "Will you dance with me?" ______ Casey Baines has had a difficult life, but unfortunately it's a life that fifty percent of American's endure. With her parents getting divorced when she was fifteen, she was ripped away from everything she knew.

Her mother, her hometown, her school, her friends, her childhood home...and Tyler Griffith. Eight years later, her mother is getting remarried. Twenty three years old now, she attends a wedding, seeing her Mom for the first time in eight years. When she locks eyes with a very familiar boy from across the reception, she swears the all of the dancing couples disappear around her. It's Tyler Griffith.

{Highest Rank In Romance: #20- 18 April 2017} "Th-this isn't allowed..." I mutter at the ground, blushing insanely, and not daring to meet his eyes. "Do you think I care?" he scoffs, and scans the dark, empty back hall for students, though nobody ever comes here. "Why are you scared of me?" he notices I won't make eye contact, and lays a finger on the bottom of my chin, lifting my head up to look at him. He's gorgeous, but extremely intimidating... "I'm-I'm not..." I choke out. He slams me up against the wall suddenly, at the exact moment one of the faulty lights above us flickers, and I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. He presses his lips to my neck lightly, and I let out a soft moan, as much as I try to resist. He smirks at the effect he has on me, and runs his fingers down my side, pinning my wrist against the wall with his other hand. He sucks on my neck, and I bite back another moan, but fail, resulting in it being louder than the last. If we're caught, I'll get expelled! I have nowhere else to go! "If I took you back to my place, right now, " he whispers in my ear, and I feel his hot breath on my cheek, sending a chill down my spine. "How long do you think it'll take, before the neighbours know my name?" ________________ Ariana Robinson is a nineteen year-old orphan, who lost her whole family in a house fire, which she happened to be away from at the time, so she was raised in an orphanage. With no relatives, no money, and no plan, she applies for a scholarship at a university, thinking she can build a future, and she gets in. * Noah Foxx is a twenty-four year old billionaire, who gained most of his father's money. He's cocky, sarcastic, rebellious, and a...teacher?! Noah's father thinks he should do something in his life where he's helping people, so he organizes for his son to be a professor at Willowston University, putting his degree in architecture to good use.
