Olivia Miller is pretty sure she'd win the high school senior award "Most Likely to Never Figure Out What They Want To Do With Their Life". Her critical father and neglectful mother have contributed to her anxiety and lack of direction about her future. She's a model student with a big heart for community service, but her dad has belittled any ambition she ever had in pursuing something she's interested in. College is a definite, but where should she go, and what should she major in? 

But there's a new guy at school, Cameron McClain, who becomes a fabulous distraction. He is positively swoon-worthy, and not just because he's a gorgeous romantic who plays the guitar. He's also thoughtful and respectful, providing some much-needed acceptance and encouragement for Olivia. He fits right in with Olivia's circle of friends: future fashion designer Lyla, photographer Kate, and all-around popular Josh. 

This story is about Olivia's journey in learning to think for herself, set personal boundaries, and overcome limitations imposed by her overbearing parents, all while trying to set a good example for her younger sister, Emma, who is watching and learning from her. Thankfully, Olivia's boss and mentor, Mrs. K, is looking out for her, offering guidance in life and Christian faith. 

Will she ever be able to get her dad's judgmental comments out of her head? Most of all, she can't wait to get away from home!

The Choices We Make by emmehnim1

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).

Like when he accidentally picks up her vibrator... Or when she walks in on him naked in the shower... Maybe... maybe they should just do it once... to get it out of their systems. Knightley has been her brother's best friend for as long as she can remember. And now they're all at the same university. It's not until she moves into his apartment that she notices just how grown-up he's become. He's no longer the scrawny boy she never paid attention to. Ripped and handsome, he's no stranger to taking women home. But he never lets them stay the night. Knightley never expected this. Somehow, he's ended up living with his best friend's little sister. And she has turned hot as hell. He does not need the image of her with a vibrator taking up space in his head. She is off limits. Of course she is. No matter what kind of feelings he has for her. This is a brother's best friend, roommates-to-lovers with a secret relationship and steamy benefits. (❤️18+ recommended❤️) It's unedited, so there might be mistakes throughout. Thanks for your understanding! Book 2 in the Benefits series. This is a standalone, but it follows Pride and Hate with Benefits. (Both are inspired by Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and Emma.)

But Monica McCaslin didn't think she would ever be one of those people, would ever have one of those moments. Brought up in a small suburb, with everything she could ever ask for, there wasn't much left for her to want. Monica's ordinary life was to go as such- follow her high school sweetheart to college, graduate, get married, have two kids; the cookie cutter life. White picket fence included.

After a brief conversation, just a handful of words between them, Monica decides to go on a cross-country road trip with him; putting her faith and future in the hands of a stranger. Thinking she'd soon regret her decision and the life she left behind, she realizes she doesn't at all.
