I like flirty Alex! I can't wait for them to spill their secrets and give in to each other...Thank you for reading and Voting! We are off to a great start to the month!
ALEXANDER In the past, he had people trailing me. Caleb had pictures of me released to the press all the time in a failed attempt to make me look bad. That had stopped months ago, and my security hadn't seen anyone in a while. I had assumed he had stopped, which was stupid of me. “Eh, that’s a w
BAILEE “The baby? It might not be his.” The words ran through my head for the rest of the day. Even Brinley and Ben had noticed that I was distracted. There was a part of me saying that the betrayal of his cheating shouldn’t hurt as much as it once did. Yet over the past few months, his betraya
BAILEE I could feel the warmth radiating off him from where I sat. His arm had brushed against mine every time he reached over me to grab some popcorn. Brinley bounced back and forth between sitting with Alex and sitting with Ben but ended up passing out on Ben’s lap. I started to get up, but B
BAILEE My fingers threaded into his hair, and I kissed him back eagerly. His lips, his hands, and his tongue felt so good that within a few seconds, I found myself grinding against him like a bitch in heat. His taste and smell stimulated my other senses, and I was lost to him. “I missed y
ALEXANDER Nathan was one of the few people who had a key to my house, and I was relieved to see that he already had the Patels sitting at my dining room table, waiting for me. I was furious that I had to leave Bailee. She was everything I had remembered and more. I wanted to march right back ther
BAILEE I never thought he would actually call. So, the fact that he didn’t wasn’t a surprise, but it was still upsetting. I had been clutching my phone like it was my lifeline all day, unable to focus on my designs, poking myself with my needles when I tried to sew, and even spilling my coffee dow
BAILEE I probably wouldn’t have done much damage, but it would be a good enough distraction for me to run. “Mason!” I exclaimed as I panted. The immature man grinned at me before looking Lacey over. “What? I can’t come visit the two most beautiful women in the world? That’s a shame,” he said,
BAILEE I wasn’t surprised when Mason took me to one of the nicest restaurants in town. I hadn’t been there before because it cost more than I make in a month, but knowing Alex was inside waiting for me made butterflies swarm in my stomach. Tonight wasn’t for Caleb or the press. It was for me...
EPILOGUE “Go, go, go!” Sebastian screamed from next to me, standing and leaning over the person in front of him as if Ben could hear him over the crowd and the glass. Then again, with how loud the man was, he just might. I had only known Bash in passing from when I worked for Ben as his assista
HAVEN ONE MONTH LATER My eyes kept moving from the woman before me to the clock on the wall behind her. I wanted to be here, but I had more important places to be. She had run over with her last client, which made us run over and caused me to be late for an important game. Ben had been stressin
BEN Haven was empty for the next few weeks as she flew back and forth, cleaning out the house her ex-husband had left her. It had been Cynthia’s home, too, and Haven had been taking extra care and devotion to ensuring things were handled and gone through properly. I had gone with her a few times,
HAVEN Her hand was cold, and I adjusted her blanket to cover her arm. The lawyers had come in and refused to admit any fault of the hospital, even though Cynthia had her ID on her and even knew one of the paramedics who brought her in for them to have given the hospital her name. They should ha
HAVEN Sitting in the airport in the middle of the night with a toddler who got angry each time the loudspeaker called for another flight and disturbed her sleep was not what I had been prepared for. My mind was a foggy mess. All I could picture was Cynthia falling down the stairs. How long had sh
BEN Being excited about an ex getting involved in my life might not have been the best thing when things were already tense, but fuck did it feel good to know I did indeed have friends in high places and they were watching my back. Was I still expecting them to hold it over me and try to get me t
BEN It was odd pulling up to the house and finding there wasn’t a single paparazzi in sight. After today’s news, I expected them to be ready to break down my gate for a story, but no one was there. Instead, a blacked-out SUV sat across the street, and my stomach twisted when I realized it was pro
HAVEN I needed to get out of the house. Staying inside was driving me crazy, and I couldn’t take it anymore. My last job interview was a week ago, and while I keep applying, no one wants to hire the woman all over the tabloids with a sex tape. Our PR team managed to get it taken down, but it stil
BEN “Rangers player Benjamin Evans is today’s hot topic. Now fans were petitioning for him to be traded for his performance last season. Even I wanted him gone, and I’ve followed his career since he was being scouted.” The reporters around him laughed, and I gritted my jaw. “I know. I remember hi
