One Wild Night

Lucinda Perry, a social recluse and a workaholic, makes a pledge to herself to go all wild on her twenty-fifth birthday and even score a one night stand if she gets her long deserved promotion at work. Few days to her twenty-fifth birthday, she gets promoted to not just a higher position but to the head office in a different city. Having to spend her birthday night in a new city, she goes to the club where she meets a very handsome stranger, Thomas Hank, who offers to be her one night stand after catching a glimpse of her dare-to-do list, which included having a one night stand. Thomas Hank, after having been used by several ladies in the past, is bent on getting the lady of his dreams who would love him for himself and not his wealth. So when he meets the cute and naive Lucinda Perry at the club, he decides to keep his true identity from her and find out if she was worth keeping. ***Excerpt*** What is more entertaining than a crazy side character? Say hello to Sonia and Bryan. Sonia's heart stopped beating for a second, and then different thoughts started flying right through her head at that same time. Bryan Hank? Her celebrity crush was kneeling right in front of her and asking her to be his wife? Was he mistaking her for someone? Was it possible this was a skit, or maybe this was like one of those celebrity pranks, and there were cameras around, waiting to capture her make a fool of herself? Or perhaps she was dreaming? Sonia wondered as she looked around them, but all she saw were curious onlookers. "Please! Be my wife and make me the happiest man on Earth," He said in a very loud voice that caught the attention of everyone. Her editor who she had been waiting on for over an hour because he was trying to sign a deal with a movie producer who was interested in one of her stories, showed up at that moment, "Sonia, you know Bryan Hank?" Her editor asked in genuine surprise as he watched the scene before him. It seemed like an hour had passed since Bryan went on his knees, but it had only been a minute. Bryan knew no lady would be crazy enough to accept such a crazy proposal, and even if any were, paying her off and calling off the whole thing would be easy since all he wanted was the scandal that could come from this. The headlines were either going to be about his rejected Marriage proposal or his supposed engagement, which would be enough to let Sophia off the hook. "Yes!" Sonia said as she bobbed her head excitedly and extended her finger for him to wear her the ring. "Yes?" Bryan asked in confusion when he heard her response. "Yes! I will be your wife and make you the happiest man in the world!" Sonia said with a giggle and wiggled her fingers until Bryan slid the ring down her finger. Surprisingly the ring was her exact size, and it sat on her finger like it was made just for her. The sound of applause erupted all around them as Sonia stood up with a big smile on her face and embraced Bryan before kissing him right on the lips. Bryan was slightly taken aback by her boldness but quickly recovered since this was his game, and he had to play along. He was the one who had approached her first, after all. So when she tried to break the kiss, he held her chin and slowly nibbled on her lower lip before parting her lips with his tongue and sucked on it in a teasing manner, eliciting a moan from Sonia. Sonia felt light-headed. This was too good to be true. It just had to be a dream. How else could she explain that one moment she was seated at the lobby of a hotel waiting for her editor, and the next she was engaged to her celebrity crush and was kissing him right here in the open?

Entangled Hearts: A Billionaire's Second Chance

Natalie Collins is a career woman, and she has worked hard for what she has today. She resides in a rich and active city, substituting her painful past. Such is the life of the protagonist, who is immediately thrown for a loop when she comes across Scott Foreman, a charming billionaire with whom she seems to have shared a past. In a bid to recapture the past and also make amends for his misdeeds, Scott returns to his city after years of empire construction. A meeting between two of them in the framework of a highly publicized charity event causes a storm in the soul of Natalie. The passion between them is remembered, as is the anguish of betrayal by Scott, whom she loved but who was killed by Chris. Although she is much wiser than that, Natalie agrees to be business partners with Scott since she thinks that the business aspect will prevent her from ‘losing her head’.  As they both come together and start working, they realize that they are healing each other sexually and slowly start regaining their married relationship. Scott becomes honest about his sins and seems to want to be a new man, but Natalie cannot forget what she felt for him and, at the same time, cannot let him use her. Indeed, for the purpose of trying to get some sort of clarity, she returns to the family home, where she goes over her interactions with both Scott and David, her current boyfriend, who is present, affectionate, and supportive. Convinced that she needs to confront herself, Natalie has truthful dialogues with the two men. She tells Scott her feelings of fear and hope and thus creates a foundation on which to restore confidence, and she discusses with David her weaknesses. Finally, Natalie makes her decision to forgive Scott and to try in her newfound relationship to get a fresh start for the two of them. Reconnecting as a couple, they have to deal with Scott’s jealous ex-girlfriend and the stress of Natalie’s high-stakes job. However, despite all this, they stand together, help, and, as a result, become much more energetic. Scott does not cease to regain Natalie’s trust and confidence in him, and through his patient sincerity, he is able to do it, and their love deepens. One of the prominent narrative motifs is a trip of lovers; the last scene before the credits roll is the moment Scott proposes a marriage to Natalie, and the girl accepts the ring. The union that signifies their love and pledge to each other is their wedding and the vows and contracts that are made and received. As has been seen many times among young parents, they organize the process of child care along with their working responsibilities. This is evident when Scott chooses to avoid work in order to assist Natalie and, in the process, support his expanding family.  Together, they develop new business opportunities, and the family foundation is created to make an adequate contribution with their achievements. The happiness that was perceived on screen—the sweetness of a love that had dreams as its backdrop—was apparent in their friendship. They move to the epilogue, and viewers witness Natalie and Scott in their happy family, still loving each other and still legally married. They are able to look at the barriers they have overcome and the joy in having met each other because the affectionate relationship is more than physical. This stands for love, affection, and, to a certain extent, the permanency of their relationship, which they created. "Entangled Hearts: “A Billionaire’s Second Chance” is a worthy example of an absent or true love story, commitment, and second chances that successfully overcome all of them.

Deceived by the Veil

Althea stood at the doorway of the bridal suite, her heart heavy with a weight she couldn't shake. The dress lay on the bed, pristine and untouched, a cruel reminder of everything she had lost. It wasn't supposed to be her walking down the aisle, pledging herself to a man she barely knew. But here she was, forced to step into her sister's place. Her sister's choice to leave had devastated her. She had rejected a life that demanded sacrifice and duty, choosing freedom over family. And Althea, for all her anger and confusion, was left with no choice but to save the family's reputation. She had to wear the dress, say the vows, and marry a man she didn't love. Her fingers trembled as she adjusted the veil, staring at her reflection. She looked perfect-beautiful, poised-but she didn't feel that way. She felt like a shadow, a replacement for the woman who should've been here. The weight of the gown suffocated her as she prepared to step into a life that wasn't hers to claim. She wasn't ready for this. She wasn't ready to marry him. But with every step she took toward the chapel, the reality set in. There was no turning back. And there, at the altar, stood Elijah. His eyes locked on hers as she approached, his gaze intense, unreadable. A faint smile curved his lips, one she couldn't quite decipher, but there was something in it that made her blood run cold. Satisfaction. He looked at her as if she were an object, something to be claimed. With each step, his smile deepened, pleased with what was walking toward him. He wasn't looking at her as a woman to be loved. He was looking at her as a prize, something that had finally fallen into his grasp. Althea's throat tightened. She couldn't turn back now, not with everyone watching. As she reached the altar, she realized the vows she was about to speak weren't hers to make. They had been written for her sister, and now she would speak them, to a man who had claimed her sister's life and was now claiming hers by default.
