Precious_1

Cheated on by her fiancé weeks before their wedding, Sara, vowed to never love again. Men could not be trusted, especially with a woman's heart. She had made the mistake once, and that was more than enough for her. Never again would she make the same mistake to give her heart to another. 

But her resolve began to waver when she came across her new boss, Alexander Legend, a man whose reputation in his expertise and ruthlessness in business preceded him. Respected and feared by many, but to Sara, he was an annoying pest she wished she never met. Too persisted for her liking yet, she finds herself falling, slowly melting in his presence. Getting used to his stolen kisses and hugs and sometimes anticipating them.

Excerpts


“You will fall for me, Sara. One day, I'll have your heart too,” Alex drawled. His voice had a seductive allure that had her heart racing. The fact that his hand was leisurely resting around her waist didn't help her either.

“Try as much as you want to,” despite her body begging for his touch, Sara was determined to reject him today and any other day. She couldn't make the same mistake again. “You won't succeed in your seduction. NOT NOW. NOT EVER.” 

Alex smirked, kissed behind her ear and her body trembled, much to his satisfaction. That was all he needed to keep purising the stubborn woman in his arms right now. “We shall see, Miss Ambrose,” he cooed and then released her. He returned to his seat and asked in a professional tone. “What is my schedule for today?”

Melting Her Cold Heart

"Where is your daughter, woman?" Dominic asked. His expression mirrored his frustration and anger. First, it was Adam making a fool of himself in the presence of many influential people, and now, it was his daughter who had just disappeared without a trace.

Just how much more trouble were they planning on stirring before they were satisfied?

"She was here this morning. She must have just stepped out for reasons unknown to us," Lily said, but the unease that she felt didn't allow her to believe that. She doubted even her own words, and it scared her.

"Tell me whether you believe that yourself," Dominic hissed as he walked past her. He could ignore it because he was a grown man, but Olivia was still a minor, a child under his care. Losing her was unimaginable.
