I accepted his job offer just to pay off the debt my cheating Ex left me with … not to end up married to my brother’s bosshole best friend. Cora never thought working for her brother’s best friend—Griffin Blake—would flip her world upside down. He’s always been cold, bossy, and way too attractive for his own good. She can’t stand him… and yet, she can’t stop thinking about him either. One night at a company retreat changes everything. A few too many drinks. A dance that got too close. A kiss that felt way too real. And then—she wakes up in his bed. With a marriage certificate. Neither of them remembers saying “I do,” but now they’re stuck in a situation neither of them expected. Cora wants out. Griffin wants control. And their chemistry? It’s getting harder to ignore. But as secrets from the past begin to surface, and feelings start to get real, Cora realizes this might be more than just a drunken mistake. Because falling for the wrong man was never part of the plan… and Griffin Blake might just be the biggest risk of all. ***** Warning : 18+ only Contains Explicit Scenes And Adult Languages featuring hard-core taboo, s*x with brothers best friend and young adults erotica
View MoreKaleigh's gaze is sympathetic as she gestures towards the door. "You know, once you step out there, the sharks will be circling," she says."I know. I have a plan." I swallow hard, feeling like I can't breathe. "I just need to get through the next hour or so."Understanding flickers in Kaleigh's eyes. "Cora, I'll be sorry to see you go. I can leave early and spend the day with you if you don't want to be alone."Tears well up, and I manage a weak smile. "I'd really appreciate that."Kaleigh nods, standing up. "You go deal with whatever you need to, and I'll get ready to leave for the day.""Thank you for not hating me for keeping this from you. I promise the way everything was written is not the way anything happened at all."Kaleigh gives me a reassuring smile as I grab my bag and head for the door. "I know it isn't. When you're ready, you can tell me as much or as little as you want.""Thank you, Kaleigh."Leaving her office, I head straight for Griffin's, feeling the weight of whis
“What is it?”He sits up, his mouth opening and closing several times. “Somebody leaked the story about us to the media.”“Who?” I sit up beside him, leaning into the headboard as my heart plummets to my feet. “The only people who know are your parents, Jake, and Sophie. Nobody else knows the truth about anything.”"Clearly, someone thought payday and ruining our reputations were more appealing than keeping the secret."“Sophie would never. Neither would Jake.” My tone is sharp as I take the phone from his hand to read the article.There are photos of our intimate moments in his backyard, lounging in the sun. Other pictures of us kissing are further down in the article.Headlines scream across the articles and gossip columns, detailing the scandalous love affair between the billionaire CEO of the prestige law firm and his assistant— ‘Assistant Marries Boss to Pay Off Debt – A Modern-Day Temptation or Calculated Move?’There’s no doubt his parents had to have spilled the story.My stom
Griffin takes the other nipple between his fingers, pinching and rolling it until I feel like I’m on the edge of an orgasm.“Griff, please. Just fuck me now.” I rake my fingers through his hair before tugging him back.He smirks and switches to the other side, ignoring my plea. His teeth graze against the sensitive bud, pulling on it until I’m whimpering beneath him.Griffin soothes away the sting with his tongue moments before he continues his path of destruction down my body.He licks and sucks at my skin until I’m sure that I’m going to be covered in marks.The thought only has more heat pooling between my thighs.“You’re being a tease again,” I hook one leg over his shoulder as he kisses my inner thigh. “You’re driving me fucking crazy.”“You fucking love it.” He flicks his tongue over my clit, a wicked gleam in his eyes.Griffin sucks on my clit as he presses two fingers into me.My hips rock off the bed as he thrusts deeper. His tongue flicks over my clit in time with his rockin
CoraThe morning after the disastrous meeting with Griffin’s parents, I want to spend the lazy Sunday in bed.She scowls at the house behind me. “I’m angry for you. Everybody should have parents who actually care.”"Well, if we ever have kids, we'll make sure they do." I close the door and round the front of the car, getting in beside her.Cora rolls her bottom lip into her mouth as the car rumbles to life. "Do you want children? I guess we've never talked about any of the important things."I pull away from my parents' house. "I've thought about what it would be like to have kids, and until now, I was sure that they wouldn't fit into my life. But then I fell in love with you, and now the most logical thing to do is build our family one day."Cora beams as she kicks off her heels and stretches out her legs. "I'm glad. I want a big family. I want a house where all the other kids hang out because it feels like a second home."I place my hand on her thigh. “Don’t worry about what my pare
Cora squeezes my hand. “I’m sorry I pressed you to have dinner with them. I didn’t think that it would go this awful.”I chuckle and spin her around before pulling her back to me. “Are you kidding? Watching someone tear into my parents was great. I’m proud of you for holding your own in there, but I’m sorry that I put you through that in the first place.”Cora reaches up and brushes stray strands of my hair from my face. “You are so much more than they think you are. I hope you know that.”I kiss her quickly before leading her back down the hall. “Let’s go say goodbye to Mrs. Cecilia before we leave. She would be upset if I left without saying anything to her.”Cora grins and nods. “I like her. You should lure her away from your parents.”“As much as I love Mrs. Cecilia, having her work for me would be weird, and she would never let me live down the fact that she used to change my diapers.”I push open the door to the kitchen as Mrs. Cecilia is about to walk out of it with another bot
As my mother’s face turns a deep shade of red, I realize I’ve never loved anyone more than I love Cora.Maybe this won’t be so bad.Cora sits down in the chair I pull out for her. She takes her napkin and spreads it across her lap. “I think we’re going to hold off on having children for a while. Griffin is busy with the office, and I’m looking into my own ventures. When we are ready to discuss having children, it will be between us.”Dad clenches his jaw shut as he sits down. He glances between us before reaching for his glass of red wine. “And what are these ventures you speak of, Cora? I must say, I didn’t think that you would want to get involved in business after what happened with your ex-fiancée.”“Dad!” I exclaim as I sit down on the other side of Cora, sandwiching myself between her and my mother.He swirls the wine in his glass. “I was just asking a question. Especially if she is going to be connected to our family, I would like to know if my daughter-in-law has a good head o
I give her a flat look, though the twitching at the corner of my mouth gives me away. "You know my parents never joke a day in their lives.""I know." Mrs. Cecilia pulls Cora into a tight hug. "Cora, right? I'm Mrs. Cecilia. I've been taking care of this house since before Griffin was born. You're stunning. I knew Griffin would find a gorgeous woman."Cora laughs, a nervous quiver in her voice. "Thank you. What was he like when he was young?"Mrs. Cecilia's eyes twinkle with mischief as the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes deepen."Oh, he was nothing but trouble. He'll claim he was a perfect angel, but he always got into mischief every time my back was turned. His poor nanny had a hell of a time keeping up with him."Cora smirks as she looks up at me. “So, nothing has changed then.”I shrug off my jacket and hang it in the hall closet before taking Cora’s coat. “You keep teasing me and see what happens when we get home.”Cora winks and pokes out her tongue. “Promises, promises.”Mr
GriffinCora’s jaw drops in awe as my parents’ beach house comes into view, its silhouette etched against the setting sun.The walls, mostly glass, shimmer in the golden light, adding to the spectacle.The driveway winding its way to the house is paved with luxurious white stones, creating an elegant path. Flanking it, meticulously pruned hedges and trees enhance the grandeur of the approach.Cora bites her inner cheek as she looks at me. “Is that a marble fountain in their driveway?”“Mom has a temperature-controlled closet for her clothing, and there’s a massive wine cellar in the basement with a bulletproof door for security.” I grip the wheel tighter as sweat beads on the back of my neck.Cora toys with the slit that climbs halfway up her thigh. “Wow.”“We could turn around and head back home. We could order your favorite food and have a relaxing night instead of torturing ourselves through this.”I want her to tell me to turn around. I want to go back to the safety of our house w
“Jake… I’m in love with Griffin, and he loves me too.”I finally muster the courage to tell him. Jake looks as if someone has just slapped him across the face, his eyes wide and his mouth hanging open.His mouth snaps shut, and he shakes his head. “So, that’s it. You two are in love, and I’m just supposed to accept that and be okay with it.”The corners of my eyes burn with the tears that build there, but I hold them back. “No. You can be mad about it. You can be pissed at me for the rest of your life if you want, but don’t give up on him.”“Why the hell would you want me to pick him over you?” Jake shakes his head. His gaze is a thousand miles away. “You’re my sister.”“Because he needs you more. You’re his only true family, and I won’t take that away from him.” I rake a hand through my hair, pushing the loose strands back from my face. “Hate me forever if that’s what you need to do, but don’t give up on him.”Jake gets up and paces back and forth across the kitchen. “I don’t know wh
CoraStaring at the Colorado Mountains from my hotel room, I realize this corporate retreat is less of a “bonding experience” and more “bored to tears.”Add in Griffin Blake, my boss and personal sunshine, and I’m officially on vacation from hell.When I became the personal assistant for the biggest asshole I’ve ever met, I didn’t think my job duties would mean being forced to go on a trip like this.Although, I didn’t have many options when it came to getting a job.Griffin was my solution, and I’ve been doing my best to avoid him whenever I can.Which is why I’m currently locked in my hotel room instead of at the pool with the lawyers.I let out a dramatic groan, eyes locked on the computer screen as if my stare might magically erase the mountain of debt staring back at me.It’s like my bank account is mocking me, whispering, “You really thought Victor was a catch, huh?”It’s going to take a couple of years just to dig myself out of the hole he put me in—even longer if I do anything...
