The Billionaires by tmcbooks

Meet Scarlett Striker, a bold and quirky journalist for the Seattle Times. She's fun, confident, sassy, and just the right amount of weird. Scarlett is determined to rise to the top, no matter what it takes. When her boss offers a golden opportunity to be among the best, Scarlett knows she needs to find a story that will make her career. She's willing to say and do just about anything to get there. But from the moment James Wilson enters the picture, her life takes a dramatic turn-and nothing will ever be the same. Scarlett's POV: "Are you always this infuriating?" he asks, clearly annoyed. I shoot him a glare, my temper flaring. "Depends on who's pissing me off," I snap back, noticing the way his fists clench. Great, now I've gone and poked the bear. "All good. I forgive you," I add quickly, not wanting to push him too far. He scoffs and turns away, unimpressed. God, what an asshole. I know I'm testing him, but I can't help it-I've always been a hothead, especially when someone tries to control me. ----- Meet Elizabeth Casana, a highly regarded executive assistant in New York City. She's smart, a bit of a nerd, and an obsessive cleaner, but she's also confident and never afraid to speak her mind. When she moves to Seattle with Scarlett, she lands a job as Chris Bryant's executive assistant. He's charming, fun, and carefree-but she absolutely cannot fall for him. Little does she know, falling for her boss will be the least of her worries as her past resurfaces and new dangers emerge. Elizabeth's POV: I roll my eyes, but I'm smiling too. "You're such a charmer, Chris. But I'm onto you." "You say that like it's a bad thing." "Not bad," I admit, my hand resting comfortably on his leg. "Just...dangerous." ----- This story gives you two perspectives, alternating each chapter between Scarlett and Elizabeth. Expect a rollercoaster of drama, love, and comedy. P.S. It will get spicy-MATURE CONTENT ahead!

Love, Lies & Immortal Ties - Whitby Shadows Series Book 1 by CJLaurence

I moved to Whitby expecting my days to be filled with grief and heartache while I watched my father die. But turns out the town has much more to offer a teenage girl like me. His name is Marcus Davenport. Rich. Powerful. Admired by the locals. Not. Human. If I were smart, I would have run the other way when I realized what he was. But there's this undeniable pull between us, a heartbeat that brings us both to life whenever we're together. I convinced myself it was fate drawing lines in the sand, the beginning of a love story that would end with forever. But I was wrong. Turns out the blood running through my veins is tied to Marcus in a way that corrupts everything we feel for each other. It's no longer something I can trust. Nothing is as it seems. The paranormal residents of Whitby altered my reality forever, and now I'm caught in a web of dark secrets and deadly deceits. The future is more uncertain than it has ever been, and I have no idea what's going to happen between Marcus and me. Oh, and then there's Luke, another one of this town's little secrets...and one huge complication.

"Don't judge a book by its cover" I'm not gone tell you. Just read the book if you curious. Sorry for mistakes I'm not editing this book.

Indecorous by rosieredness

(18+ EXPLICIT CONTENT) "Attract a lot of attention, huh beautiful?" His voice hit me like a wall, absurdly catching me off guard. It was deep, sensual, something any girl (or boy) could melt over. I was sort of speechless, yet trying my best to appear unafflicted. "Only the wrong ones." That was definitely drunken me talking, as I didn't usually have that much confidence. His lips twitched up into a smirk, expressing that he understood my comment. "Does that mean that I'm in that category?" My palms began to grow sweaty and my heart rate picked up, but otherwise my body remained relaxed, appearing completely fine. It similar to when you're on autopilot, completely withdrawn due to intoxication. "I suppose not," I crossed my arms, putting on this seductive persona just for him. This fueled his smirk, about to murmur another comment before I cut him off. "You'll have to show me, though." *** Amelia Hollis was a 23-year-old writer at one of the local publishing companies, assisting a very handsome man and writing articles left and right. Her and her best friend, Aviary, lived together in a cute little apartment off the central part of the city, yearning to create new memories and important moments. Amelia always lived for the moments, taking in every little detail and savoring it like it was her favorite meal. She was an optimist, hoping to change peoples lives with her dreams. James Vallette was a 34-year-old CEO, building his company from dirt with the help of his brother. He was a realist, not really having time to deal with dreams or even love. He knew this the night he laid eyes on Amelia. It was only casual; what harm could a one-night stand do? Oh yeah, he's her dad's boss.

Delirious Love by jellogayn2

|STEAMY ROMANCE| 18+ "Oh, how bad I want to corrupt you, ruin you. But you're not ready for that." As much as I want her beneath me, writhing, begging me to stop. There is a time and a place for all that, which now is not the time nor place. A blush forms on her cheeks as she looks away. I put my finger under her chin and gently lift her face. "Look at me, my love. I want to see those beautiful cherry cheeks of yours." I love how responsive she is to me. Seeing her blush and shy away from me is one of my favorite things about her. "Stop, Ansel," she giggled. "You can't just say things like that and expect me to remain unfazed". I find it amusing that she is completely unaware of the power she has over me. God, if we didn't have to leave, I would've shown her what she does to me. "I'm not going to apologize, my love. You make me want to give you the world, yet corrupt that innocent aura you have. Let's go, darling, we are going to be late." I take her hand and guide her to the passenger side of the door, opening it, allowing her to climb into the car. Walking to the drivers' side, I get in making sure she is buckled, before buckling myself. Once I see her buckled, I start the car, putting my hand on her thigh. When Emory Miller attracts Ansel Dubois' attention, things are destined to happen.

Coffee at 5 AM √ by LenaHal

"Wait," I put my hands on my hips and frown. "You woke me up to ask me this? Because you want to meet me every morning at five?" "Yes." "So you honestly expect me to throw away three hours of perfectly good sleep just to have coffee with you?" He rolls his eyes and smirks at me. "Yes." "And what's in it for me?" he takes a step towards me. "Duh. You get to drink coffee with me every day for a year," he points at his face. "Are you going to say no to this pretty face, are you?" I hand him a five-dollar bill. "Fine, I'll do it," he smiles.

Preview: "You will be mine Miss Drake and I do not share." I state sternly. "Release my arm Mr. Sanford before I force you to." She states giving me a fake smile. I smirk at her. She takes her other hand and squeezes my wrist before twisting it in a painful position. I hiss in pain. "Don't underestimate me Mr. Sanford." She whispers in my ear before gently pushing me away from her. I shake my hand and look back at her. "This is the only time I will allow you to walk away from me Miss Drake." She turns and glares at me. "Mr. Sanford, I am no possession of yours. " She pushes the classroom door open and leaves me standing there.
