DJ was one of the biggest movie stars with die-hard fans all over the world. He was dubbed as Mr. Perfectionist for the effort he put in while preparing for a role. When his upcoming movie required him to play the lead role of a police officer, DJ readied himself for research. What he hadn't expected was his mentor to be a woman. A young, beautiful police officer who was not only immune to his charms and stardom, but also someone who made it quite clear she considered him nothing but trouble. Sheila Dasani was a no-nonsense police officer. When she was coerced into a 'special' mission to mentor an entitled and arrogant movie star, she made her displeasure very evident to him. But each time she gave DJ a hard time or snubbed his flirting, he didn't seem deterred. Soon she was torn between wanting to shoot the man and wanting to kiss him while he slowly tried to steal her heart. Excerpt: "You’re just so, so..." She was too flustered and couldn’t seem to find the right word. He was more than happy to help her. "So damn irresistible? I know, it's such a burden." A smirk covered his face. "Aargh... You are just so—" "Charming and handsome?" he supplied. He was enjoying this way too much. Sheila somehow pulled herself together and scowled. "I was going to say infuriating. But I should add cocky and big-headed too." He grinned. And that caused another damn flutter in her stomach. ***Now available on a special preorder price of 99 cents for a limited time only.

Dating the Doubter
Karla Doyle - 2022
Infatuation, sure. Lust, absolutely. But true love? Please. That’s strictly fiction, folks.Unfortunately, I haven’t convinced my best friend and business partner of that. The guy’s still a believer in happily-ever-after, despite having met—and lost—“the one” more times than I can count. And that’s pretty damn high, since I’m the numbers guy behind our hot new startup.Tonight, I wish I had my buddy’s technical skillset. If I did, I’d be back at our twentieth-floor office, solving our system crash. Instead, I’m taking his place at yet another pointless speed-dating meetup, so he doesn’t tick off the organizer by bailing. I’m tempted to no-show and get him booted from the group, but he wouldn’t see it as the favor it is.So I’ll go and fake it for a couple hours. Maybe score a hookup. Probably rack up some good stories. One thing I won’t do at tonight’s “Desperates Anonymous” event…meet the woman of my dreams. Because she doesn’t exist. Dating is fun and games. Love is for suckers.* A love-at-first-sight, instalove romance novella *
