    If she could do it without feeling a thing, I would let her go forever.Bronwyn--Getting roped into a photo shoot wasn’t my idea of fun. The worst part was that it turned out to be nothing like I expected.But when I met Quinton, the guy behind the camera, I was ready to do a lot more than strike a pose.And I did.I found myself being uncharacteristically agreeable, relaxed my poise, and fed off the carnal craving the photographer ignited in me.But before I embarrassed myself, I snapped to my senses.Helping people find comfort in front of the camera was his job. I’d seen the photos adorning his studio walls. He captured personalities not just likenesses.The best thing I could do was take the advice I gave all of my employees… Believe that the world is watching, and always keep your wits about you.Quinton--I’d worked with all types and had a knack for getting people to open up during photo shoots. But when Bronwyn stepped in front of my camera, I felt like an amateur. I filled my camera roll with close-up shots of her, amongst the smattering of shots I was supposed to be snapping for the school's community partnership photo shoot.She’d captivated me. Her essence was a collage of beauty, power, and femininity.Convinced I could make her mine, I pushed for more, but when reality reinserted itself, she shot me down.The blow struck my ego but destroyed my heart.Certain I hadn’t misread her cues, I took another look at her proofs. It was unmistakable. We had something.If it was the last thing I ever did, I would capture a lot more than her photograph. I was going to capture her heart.

    Every soft blink, every dimpled smile, every bubbly laugh out of her perfect lips is a reminder of what I can never have. Eight years ago, I made a mistake. I promised her brother, my best friend, that I’d never bring her into my world. A promise I regret with every breath in my body. But then one night, Kenna walks into the dark club, hiding behind a mask and a false sense of security. She thinks this is anonymous and once I get my hands on her, I can’t resist giving her exactly what we both want. I just have to pray that she’ll be able to forgive me once she realizes who I am.KennaJonas has a secret. My sexy-as-sin boss thinks he’s sneaky, that no one notices him slipping away. On his nights off, he trades out that worn out ball cap and faded flannel for a dark suit. He tosses a duffle bag into the back of his truck, and he’s gone. He thinks no one sees him, but I do. I see everything he does. Sure, following him and prying into his personal life is probably wrong but I’m dying to know what he’s up to. Never could I have imagined the secret he’s been keeping. A secret that brings my deepest fantasies to the surface. A secret with the potential to change both of our lives forever.

    I couldn't help but look, stare even. How could I not? He looked like he knew his way around the female body and I was aching to find out exactly how much he knew.

    except to them.Sophie: I don't remember much from the last year, thanks to a chemical reaction. At least, that's what they tell me caused my brain to fry.

Yet I have naked pics of him on my phone, which means we've probably... no, no, no. I can't even.To make matters even worse, the two of us apparently have a wedding coming up in two weeks, and our family and friends don't want us to cancel it.

    Or I did.Running into the same girl I saved earlier is a one in eight million shot.
I’m not a believer in fate, destiny, or any of that new age nonsense.But ever since that moment this morning she’s all I’ve been able to think about.The irony of this all is that I knew I was going to hire her before I ever came into the city this morning.The application process is all a rouse for a bigger game I’m playing. I just didn’t know that this faceless girl would be the same one I met in such strange circumstances.
This isn’t what I expected. This wasn’t part of the plan.
But it’s lead me to the ultimate win of my life…her.
I had a plan and I executed it. The only problem is it’s working out too well. I expected results, but I didn’t expect this…because I never could have expected she’d be as perfect as she is.
But what if she figures out the truth? Will she still want to be with me? Would she try and leave?
It’s not a chance I’m willing to take, because when I told her she’s mine I meant it…whether she understands what that means or not.She’s mine now. My little girl. There’s no turning back, whether she likes it or not, forever and always.
This is a short, steamy "daddy-lite" romance with some daddy elements, but it is not a spot on ddlg story. No OM / OW drama and no cliffhangers. Always a sweet HEA.
