[This is a spin-off of 'A Sacrifice To Remember' but can be read as a stand alone]

****

When life gives you lemons, you make lemonades. But, what happens when life gives you a man like Parker? You love him still. 

Mia Watson, a hopeless romantic who believed in the concept of true love and happy endings, just as her best friend found hers. She holds on to the thought  that someday her perfect man will come and sweep her off her feet, or so she thought. Little did she know that Adrian Parker, who is best friends with her best friend's husband will waltz into her life and be the complete opposite of her ideal Prince Charming and the one she can't resist.


Focused only on the world of business Adrian Parker doesn't have the luxury of being with a woman. 'One night stands' had always been the perfect getaway for him, that way there were no strings attached. He is every woman's dream and he can choose to have any woman he wants without even flinching. Globally known as Australia's most eligible bachelor and business tycoon, he's the most sort after man but he has lost faith in love. He was yet to meet a woman on the planet who could change that, but then fate brought him back home to visit his best friend who's been injured. There wasn't a force powerful enough to stop him from meeting Mia. 


Can she turn the not so charming Prince Charming around? Or will their encounter be a passing phase?

This book is a RomCom book(Romance comedy). Read if you love laughing.😊 CURRENTLY EDITING AND WORKING ON RE-WRITING. PLEASE IGNORE SOME IMMATURE THINGS THAT THE CHARACTERS EXHIBIT. I'LL BE RE-WRITING THE BOOK AS SOON AS SCHOOL STRESS REDUCES A TAD BIT. Mia Montana has always had the fantasy of a perfect ever after. She believes she can find that in Dayne Matthews her current boyfriend. He is just that perfect person. It's him or no other. Jason Steele New York's most eligible billionaire bachelor. He is every ladies dream. But the problem is, he isn't looking for a long term commitment. Being a product of a failed marriage he believes love doesn't exist.

He arranges with his best friend to match-make their grand children on the pretext of merging their companies. Jason and Mia refuse to compromise. So they strike a deal with them. "You both will live together for 30 days, if you don't fall in love with each other within those 30 days. You both can go your separate ways and marry whoever you want to marry". Found in between the devil and the blue sea, they both agree. Mia feels she is in love with someone already, so loving Jason will be totally impossible. But life isn't how it seems like always. They are yet to discover love isn't a matter of choice but a matter of the heart. Disclaimer- I know that this book has lots of plot holes, and all that. Trust me when I say I'm definitely working on it. I haven't fully gotten around editing it 'cause how busy life is at the moment. Note that, this book is my first book ever as a writer and as such has stuff that needs to be worked on. If you want to read a really thought out work, you can read my other books. I do hope you all understand.

*Book 1 of CEO series* "Am I a villain?" Mr. Martinez probed, pinning me with his intense gaze. "Yes!"

The thing she never imagined in her rarest dreams gave her pleasure and Adrian soon turned out to be her only craving. ** "And it would be better if we keep a professional relationship. Just like a boss and employee. And never try to manhandle me the way you are doing now." And I turned around. I approached the door, but Adrian whirled me and pinned me against the door by my shoulders. "Your big mouth needs to be punished for spitting in front of your Boss," before I could apprehend his words, I found his lips on mine. ** "I had a dream this afternoon. You spanked me." Adrian laughed, "You dreamed of me spanking you." I nodded my head. "And you thought my punishment would be that simple." And his words made my breath stuck in my throat.
