With Any Luck Ashley Poston

Husband With Benefits

Nora is shattered a month before her wedding when she uncovers her fiancé's deceitful affair. As she manages this betrayal, she discovers a deep ploy to hinder her from claiming her rightful inheritance. Devastated but determined, Nora takes a daring step to regain control of her life. Enter Demetri 'The Demon' to those who know him, a formidable man barely known to her, who offers her protection and support in return for a contract marriage to satisfy him. In a twist of fate, Nora marries Demetri to claim her inheritance and fight those who plotted against her. But as she battles her own family and Demetri's many rivals, will she be able to keep from falling for the man known to crush people beneath his booted heel. Excerpt: She had forgotten that the man was intimidating and directly challenged him. Rather than speaking, Demetri rose from his seat and approached her deliberately. Although it was a mere few steps, time seemed to stretch for Nora. When he was almost within touching distance, his hand gently landed on her knee, moving it sideways. His touch moved with a hint of a caress, and he stepped between her open legs. Nora sat there in frozen silence, her eyes wide like a deer caught in headlights. Catching her chin between his fingers, he tilted her face upwards and spoke unhurriedly," You are my wife." She nodded her head slowly in affirmation while his thumb slowly traced her lip. "I have given you time to gather your emotions." Another nod. Nora's nervousness made her lick her lips, acutely aware of his intense gaze fixed upon them. "Your reason for the marriage was to secure your inheritance and get away from under your mother's thumb." "Yes..." Nora whispered in confusion. Her confusion was not about his statement but about the bewildering sensations coursing through her. What was happening with her? "It's time for you to fulfil your end of the contract, yes?" He continued. "Yes," Nora whispered breathlessly. Why was she breathless? Had the oxygen level in the house dropped? Was the air suddenly thinning? Abruptly, his hand left her face, and she watched as he drew closer. It was then that Nora comprehended what was unfolding. All those tantalizing, heart-pounding kisses she had read about in novels were about to possibly become her reality. But the anticipated kiss didn't happen. Instead, he paused near her and commanded, "Kiss me."

I am the Son of Luck!

Qin Chen, a modern young man, finds himself waking up in a cultivation world, inhabiting the body of a man with the same name. Yet instead of excitement, he feels a deep sense of irony as he delves into the memories of his new body. His fate is a cliché straight out of the cultivation novels he used to read: born into a low-ranking family, orphaned from a young age, poor cultivation talent, and a lover eventually taken by someone else. It all felt like the basic template for a protagonist in a novel! However, unlike weak and slow-growing main characters, Qin Chen quickly realizes something. If this world truly mirrors a cultivation story, then as the protagonist, he is Heaven's favored child, protected by limitless luck. "I am the center of this world, shielded by destiny. What do I have to fear?" Qin Chen thought with a grin. Defying great clans? Toppling powerful sects? Kidnapping royal princesses? All of that is just another day for a protagonist blessed with extraordinary luck. Qin Chen believes that as long as he is Heaven's chosen one, no danger could truly kill him. He has complete faith in the plot always saving the main character at the last second. But unlike the typical cliché protagonists, Qin Chen refuses to be naive, foolish, or soft. He understands that this world is harsh and brutal. Therefore, he vows to move forward with boundless courage, take what is rightfully his, and destroy anyone who dares to stand in his way. Unfortunately, living as a protagonist is not as easy as he imagined. [Ultimate Villain System Activated] [Main Mission: Kill Qin Chen]
