It has always been my father and me. He is a good man, but like everyone else, he makes mistakes. This time, the one he made has gotten him into a lot of trouble. He asked the wrong people for money, and now, they are threatening violence against not only him but me. He has only one choice: He needs to disappear until he can sort things out. I want to go with him, but he has other ideas. To protect me from the dangers he has put himself in, he leaves me with one person he knows he can trust. Ambrose Calloway. A man I know well, one who is ruthless and heartless. The last person I want to stay with, but when my father begs me, I can’t say no. I would rather stay with anyone else! He doesn’t want me around and only agrees because he owes my father a favour. Now, here I am, staying in a mansion with a man who hates me. The feeling is mutual. He promises my father that he will protect me until he comes back. People seem to fear Ambrose, but I have never understood why. What I don’t expect is that I would learn secrets about him that make me understand why no one messes with him. I wish I had realised from the start just how much danger I was in. I plan to make his life hell, but sometimes, when the tension and anger become too much, two people find other ways to take it out on one another that don’t involve arguments. I am not looking for a protector, but Ambrose becomes everything I didn’t know I needed, but it still won’t make life any easier.

I’m trouble for anyone who crosses my path. I am heartless and selfish. I don’t care about anyone or anything in this world. When you grow up in a house full of lies, distress and abuse, those walls go up high and thick. Anyone with any sense knows not to get involved with me. I hurt people and destroy their lives without a care in the world. The world has given me nothing. Why should I give it anything? I am comfortable with who I am, and if people have an issue with it, that’s their problem, not mine. Unlike others, I don’t pretend to be someone I’m not. What you see is what you get with me. When Aubrey unexpectedly enters my life, all I desire is to have her as my own. I should steer clear. She is my brother’s wife’s cousin. The fact that she is off-limits only increases my desire for her. She is sweet and nice. She has already been through a lot. It should be enough to keep me away, but it isn’t. I will do whatever it takes. Aubrey will be mine, even if just for one night, regardless of what I have to do. Nothing and no one can stand in my way. I thought I would ruin her life, but she ended up changing mine.

*** Previously known as Breaking All the Rules**** When I attended a family BBQ to celebrate my finally starting university after putting it off for a few years, I didn’t plan on having a one night with my big brother's friend he brought with him. But I have a weakness for tall men with dark hair and eyes; he was just there. I have a way of getting what I want, and I wanted him, so I went for it. He doesn't have any complaints. No one needs to know, especially not my overprotective brother. It will only be one night. I don’t do more than one stand and casual flings because I refuse to get my heart broken again. Even when one night turns into a steamy weekend, I have no plans on seeing Carlos again, something which he is fine with. He will be a memory and nothing more. I should have known, though, that with my luck and timing, things wouldn’t be so easy. When I walked into my first class at university a week later, like some sick joke, he was standing in the front of the class. Carlos soon becomes Professor Turner. The look on his face when his eyes fall on me is priceless, and I need to stop from laughing. It shouldn’t be an issue since we had no idea when we hooked up. It isn’t like I plan to seduce him again, and I am sure he doesn’t plan to do it to me, either. However, I have always been one for breaking the rules and the more I see him around campus, the more it makes me want to be naughty. It wouldn’t take much for me to seduce him, but do I really want to put myself in such a situation? It can only end up being a disaster, yet it doesn’t seem to be enough to make me keep my distance. I am always up for a new challenge, and what is more of a challenge than trying to get my professor back into bed?

I’ve had many choices to make in life, some hard, some easy, just like everyone else. It is part of life; we do what we do to make our life the best we can. Other people’s choices affect us too, and it is something which has happened to me recently when my fiancé left me for some nineteen-year-old. A choice so easy for him but one enough to turn my world upside down. One which led to me having no place to call home, but thank god I have a best friend who would do anything for me and allows me to move in with her and her three roommates. Three male roommates, all as handsome as the other. Something my best friend forgot to warn me about. It was hard enough staying with one, but here I am with three men, each seeming to be interested in me. Why, I have no idea. I am sure they can get any woman they want. I try to tell myself I am strong enough to fight temptation, but it is easier said than done around those three and one by one; they start to break me. I haven’t met men like them before, and the fact they are friends doesn’t seem to be an issue to them. I find myself in a situation where I am stuck between three of them, together and separately; they make me feel good and allow me to explore in ways I never thought I could. They release something inside of me I didn’t know was there. I have to choose, eventually, right because I can’t have all three. Or can I? Do I really need to choose? It isn’t like they are forcing me to.

He went from happy to dark...sweet to bitter and became so closed off from everything he became a shadow of himself. He was no longer the man that had everything. He changed but I never realized my life was gonna change too when one day he called me to his office asking me to do something. He shouldn’t...ask me to do something that I should have said no to. The day he asked me to pretend to be his lover to get back at his soon to be ex-wife who was rubbing her new relationship in his face. Why did he choose me when he was surrounded by a woman more beautiful than me... a woman who wanted him in ways I never, well so I thought...he asked me because I was the one his wife disliked from day one. She never wanted me around...never wanted me to be her husband assistant...she was jealous, believed that I would steal him away, that was never on my mind. I never seen him in that way or even thought about him in that way. Well so I thought but everything I thought. I knew changed the day. I agreed to be my bosses pretend lover.

A surprise visit to my brother for the summer after travelling for months doesn't quite go as planned. The idea was to relax and spend time with him before I decided what to do with my life. I had no idea his roommate would be there. I didn't even know he had a roommate. I only find out when I knock on his front door and am greeted by a shirtless guy with messy hair and glasses. He doesn't seem the type my brother would share his house with. My brother is a confident guy who enjoys partying and women. I soon realise Levi is quiet, shy and a little nerdy. Yet, it seems to work for them. When it comes to men, I have a type. I usually prefer bad boys who break my heart, but I strangely find myself becoming attracted to Levi. At first, I didn't understand why, but when I had a chance to spend time with him, I realised he is probably the sweetest man I have ever met, and he isn't as shy and quiet as he seems. He tries fighting his attraction to me because of my brother, but it doesn't work out that way. I have never been one to back off from what I want, and Levi is no exception. I know my limits and would never push someone too far. But, it turns out, I am not the only one who doesn't give up on what they want.

Evan and I have been best friends for twenty years, we were only three when we met, and I have probably been in love with him for ten of those. I would never tell him because I don’t want to risk our friendship. It is too important and beautiful to be ruined by what-ifs. I have kept my feelings to myself; no one else in this world knows the truth. And even if I did decide to tell him, he wouldn’t be interested. He has a type, one which isn’t me. He likes his women beautiful, slim, blonde, confident, and successful. I am brunette, curvy, shy, awkward and make enough to scrape by. We were opposites, but it seemed to work for us. Evan has always been a ladies’ man, one for always getting what he wants, but he has a heart of gold, too, which sometimes gets taken advantage of. I have watched many women break his heart, but it never puts him off falling in love again. I think that is the hardest part for me, watching him give his heart to other women, all while a part of me wished he would give it to me instead because I wouldn’t break it. I have dealt with it for ten years, and I plan to continue for the rest of our lives. Yet, somehow when I least expect it, everything changes and all because of a stupid drunken kiss, one which could have been prevented if either of us had been sober enough to realise what we were doing.
