*** COMING SOON TO AMAZON AND KINDLE ***


Previously titled Checkmate on Wattpad... #1.5 in 'Rules of Engagement series'

Love is a strange thing, even the toughest of the tough will one day fall at its mercy...and when I say fall, I mean plummet!

It usually begins with a fight, a challenge, a feud. But don't we all know that old saying? 

       "There's a fine line between love and hate..."

Meet caring and innocent Nancy, harbouring an undying desire for one man. Now meet Nathaniel, as much rude as he is attractive. Throw in a business trip to Italy, a complicated past and burning sexual tension... Least to say sweet little Nancy is in for one hell of a ride.

"You were worried about me, Specs?" He smirked. "No, Tyler. I hoped that someone cut up your corpse and fed it to paranas. Obviously I was, you idiot! I'm a doctor. Worrying about people is kind of programmed into my system. It's a curse if you ask me," I surprised myself a lot more than I thought was possible with my answer. And what did he do? Laugh! He fucking laughed! Not full on rolling- on- the- floor laughter but a laugh nonetheless. "This isn't funny, Tyler." "It kind of is. Almost a month ago, I would've sworn that you hated me. Be careful, Specs," he squinted down at me, "or you might actually sound as if you like me." I rolled my eyes. "Don't flatter yourself. I was concerned. Don't confuse that with affection. It's two very, very different things." *** When you think that all is not lost in the world. That not all men are pricks and that not all sushi is bad. When you think that there is a light, no matter how dim, at the end of the tunnel. When you think that life isn't the ruthless bitch you've always thought it was... It turns around and bites you in the ass. When you think that the past will always and forever remain where it should be... It comes at you from every direction. Like a violent tsunami destroying everything...and everyone in it's path. Can you change what happened? I wish. Can you stop what's going to happen? God! I really hope so.

"You have to tell me everything," he said and released my hand. Stupid man, he did that on purpose. "You have no power over me. I don't owe you shit," before I could say anything more, he pinned me onto the bed and wrapped his other hand around my neck. "Are you sure about that?" he asked and I tried to move away from him but he draped his left leg over my right leg and squeezed a bit harder on my pipes. Without thinking about anything, I grabbed the back of his neck and pulled him closer to me. ************************************* Willow gets married to the third top mafia leader from Roseedge.

One last trip with her family before she goes to University. Her intentions for this trip were to spend every minute making memories and savouring the last moments she'd get with her family before she moved away. She did this, just not with who she had planned. In the Italian sun it's easy to make rash decisions and to have a lapse in judgement. Especially when a man, you've only just met, comes into play. When he's showing you the island and teaching you Italian, how can you not fall madly in love? With three weeks to spend, will she let herself fall head over heels for a guy she will most likely never see again, or will she stick with her former plan and come to her senses?
