The 3 C's in Life:
Choice, Chance, Change.
You must make the choice to take the chance if you want anything to change.
After 15 years of living with a mother addicted to every drug in the book, 3 years of being tossed around from foster home to foster home, 2 years of living with an abusive boyfriend, and 2 year of living in a women's shelter Millie had a little luck and got a job working at a café in the Upper East Side. To most people her life isn't stable or even close to being successful but to her it's a million times better than it was 3 years ago. It's the best it has ever been and ever will be.
Jake has years of success in the business of acting and years of failure in the business of dating actresses. Because of that he feels like his choices in life were so mixed up. He made the right choices in his career but he never could hold onto a relationship. Women came and they went and he gave love to each one but he never really loved any one woman. He didn't know what else he could do but just keep working. Maybe the whole settling down thing wasn't for him. One night stands and year long relationships was all that was meant for him to have. He wasn't looking looking forward to that but if that's all he could have then he just has to accept it.

The Choices I've Made (By the Bay #1)
Twelve years ago, he drove away with my heart in his hands. I've moved on since then. Or so I thought. Growing up in a small town, there weren't too many options when it came to friends. But, even in a sea of a million, I'd always choose Jake Jameson. I felt safe with him. Safe with my secrets, my dreams and eventually - my heart. I thought we'd have forever together. That was a long time ago. I thought I'd forgotten those piercing blue eyes and the sound of his laugh. I tried to obliterate the memory of his touch from my mind. But, one single glance, as he stands at my door, twelve years later, and I'm suddenly transported back to a simpler time when love was easy, and my heart was whole. The problem? I'm marrying his best friend.Complete

"Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?"

The Bodyguard 2 (18+)
A Across the Jakeverse novel Earth 238 This is Selena's story. How she felt before and after Jake. And how everything she ever knew changed in the blink of an eye. Part from story I sat in this hospital bed, reminiscing over my past, and I have gone my entire life, going in and out of relationships, that I never figured I'd find what I was truly searching for. I have been hurt so many times, that I thought love didn't even exist anymore. It got to the point, where I had given up, and I put myself in that treatment facility, because of depression, and I just wanted to give up on everything. At least until I met Jake Tyler. At first, when I first seen him standing in my doorway, I didn't know I would love again. I thought he was just another guy that was gonna hurt me, and that day when he came to see me, and told me my mom missed me, I almost didn't consider going with him across country, especially since he was a company stranger. But there was just something that told me it would be alright, that I could trust him, and so I followed my gut. Being in hotel rooms with him, was great. He didn't try to do anything to me, he was a total gentleman. When he wanted to date other girls, while we we're just starting out our relationship, and him becoming my bodyguard, I honestly wasn't okay with it, but I let him do it, because I already knew who I wanted, I was just waiting for him to see it as well. When I got pregnant with Francia, I was so scared, that he was gonna leave me, and be with one of them, but when I gave him that choice, he instantly chose me, and wasn't even fazed by me trying to test him, when I invited my friends, Emily Ratajkowski, Bella Hadid, and Hailee Steinfeld over. He proved then too, that he wanted me only, and I was so happy. I hated his job, because it was always so stressful on him, but he always tried to act like it didn't bother him.Complete![Introspective Strangers [h.s.]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/230436328-256-k677436.jpg)
