He advanced on Grace, his muscles flexing as he smiled, looking akin to a predator. Nervously, she backed away until she hit a wall. No way out.
Grinning, he came closer as she tried to shrink back unsuccessfully. "What - " her breath hitched. "What do you want?"
He planted his hands around her head. She was trapped. He leaned closer, almost touching her lips, and she closed her eyes in anticipation. She wanted so bad to resist, but for some reason his forest green eyes did things to her that nobody else could do.
Instead of landing on her mouth, he began to nibble on her collarbone and around her jaw. She moaned and lost herself in the sensations as he continued to suck until he found a place to his satisfaction. He focused all his attentions on that one area until a nice, dark red mark was very obvious. He grinned.
"Russo," he murmured against her neck, breathing hard. She whimpered in response. "You're mine, you hear? Mine." And then he kissed her.

Annabelle Gracia Russo, or Grace, as she likes to be called, is a rebel. Family issues convinced her that love was terrible; that all it reaped, in the end, were broken hearts. She has built walls around her heart that she's determined to not let anybody into - especially Alex Hunt, the coveted and extremely hot player.
However, as time passes, she begins to get to know Alex better - much her displeasure, but the heart wants what the heart wants. Can Alex teach her how to love, and can Grace ever learn again?
"What if the right person is also your Mr. So Wrong?"

Her lips touched and teased and coaxed him and he felt her touch in every cell and every bone. Soft and supple, her body was around him. Everywhere. She was everywhere. He was hungry for more, but he couldn't break this sweetness.
Shy and timid, she kissed like herself. All so innocent, but incredibly passionate. The kiss was gentle, yet also fire.
And he couldn't help anymore. He wanted more.
He pushed her back gently and her back hit the wall and he pressed himself to her amazing body.
"Ah." He thought. "Can I really stay away after this?"
"I can't." She thought.

A guy, a girl, a contract and sizzling sexual tension brewing between them. Is it possible for them to come out of it with zero casualties?
~~~
"I'll give you a place to stay and I'll pay you, all you have to do is to pretend to be my wife for an year, in return. It is that easy."
Or is it?
With a contract, their deal is filed, signed and sealed with a kiss.
Finally, Alexandra will have a home, have someone to back her up in the fight of getting back what is legally hers. Logan will have the revenge he wants against his ex-girlfriend, Stacy.
Gambling with the matters of heart is just dangerous. You might hit the jackpot or you will be neck deep in heartbreak. It all depends on the cards that have been dealt to you.
And they will both realize it soon enough, when their heart take over their brain.
