What happens when the player becomes the played?

Damian is a well-known player until he meets Haley Cunningham. Haley captures his eye; however, unlike the rest of his conquests, she doesn’t seem to be the least bit interested. It throws him off. However, it also makes it more exciting. Haley becomes his mark. He’s willing to do anything and everything to spend one night with her, even if that means putting aside his playboy ways.

After a recent acquisition, Stone Enterprises is set for the expansion of the century. The only thing delaying the expansion is Damian Stone, the younger brother of owner Zane Stone. Zane spends most of his time in Europe to begin work on the new company. The only problem is that Damian’s playboy ways are standing in the way of taking over Zane’s role.

Stone Enterprises is a prestigious tech firm with a strong reputation. This means that Damian must choose between a quick lay and a first-time relationship to keep its reputation. Will he succeed? Or will the company risk being placed in the hands of its enemies?

Damian is hell-bent on keeping up his bachelor lifestyle until Zane presents him with the offer of a lifetime. Zane will gift his younger brother the company if he can succeed in dating one girl. Sounds easy? Perhaps not.

Zane knows his brother too well and decides to make a few rules that Damian must agree to in order for him to take ownership. Damian must stay in a relationship with the girl for at least seven months. Damian can not see any other girl. That even includes the “quick lay” that Damian has grown accustomed to. Not only that, but Zane also gets to pick the girl as well.

Will Damian succeed? Or is he doomed to fail?

The Mark Book 1

I was excited. I was finally getting closer to having Haley for myself. I had devoted my time to making her happy. Once she was happy with me, I stood a better chance to win her over. I had contacted Colton and asked him to pick up her coffee before picking her up. I found out that she wasn't a big fan of breakfast, so I decided not to continue getting it for her. 


I made sure that there was a new arrangement of flowers on her desk every day. I knew how much she loved flowers. I wanted to get her unique ones, staying away from the traditional roses, tulips, and carnations. I loved how they put a smile on her face each time she saw them as she walked into the office. 


I started hiding notes for her to find. Notes with small endearments inside. Such as 'I love your smile.' 'Your presence makes my day brighter.' I would smile each time I saw her blush after reading my notes.
