Catherine Baker's quiet days of arranging flowers are upended the moment Brandon Hartman walks into her shop. He isn't just another wealthy customer, he's the pastor's son, heir to a billion-dollar empire, and the last person Catherine should fall for. But the intensity in his eyes and the mystery surrounding his polished exterior pull her in. Brandon has it all, power, money, and a family name that demands perfection. Yet, behind closed doors, his world is far from perfect. Secrets, lies, and a past he can't outrun have turned his life into a ticking time bomb. And now, Catherine might just be the spark that sets it all ablaze.

Forbidden Love With The Pastor's Billionaire Son Chapter 1 A Bouquet & A Stranger

The bell above the flower shop door rang, pulling Catherine Baker's attention away from the bouquet she was tying. She glanced up and froze. A man had stepped into the shop, his presence impossible to ignore. He wore a dark suit that looked expensive, and everything about him seemed polished.

"Catherine," her mother, Dorine, called from the counter. "Can you bring those orchids up front?"

"Coming," Catherine said, shaking off her distraction. She grabbed the tray of orchids from the shelf and walked toward the front of the shop. The man was standing at the counter now, his tall figure making the cozy space feel even smaller.

"I need a bouquet," the man said. His voice was deep and calm.

"For a special occasion?" Dorine asked with her usual friendly smile.

"Not really. Something simple and elegant," he replied. "No bright colors."

Dorine nodded thoughtfully. "Lilies and eucalyptus. They are classic and understated."

"That works," he said.

As Dorine began arranging the bouquet, the man glanced around the shop. Catherine, standing nearby, couldn't help but notice the way his sharp eyes took everything in. For a moment, his gaze landed on her. She felt a jolt and quickly looked away, pretending to adjust a display.

"You have sunflowers here," he said, pointing to a bright corner of the shop.

Catherine glanced at him, surprised. "We do," she said carefully.

"They are bright and cheerful," he said.

"Not your style?" she asked with a small smile.

"Not today," he replied, a hint of amusement in his voice.

Before she could respond, Dorine called her over. "Catherine, wrap this for him, will you?"

Catherine moved behind the counter. Her hands worked quickly, wrapping the lilies and eucalyptus in crisp white paper. She tied a ribbon around the bouquet, then handed it to the man. Their fingers brushed briefly, sending a strange warmth through her.

"Thank you," he said softly.

"Enjoy," she replied, her voice quieter than she expected.

The man reached into his pocket, pulling out his wallet. Dorine raised her hand to stop him. "No need," she said kindly. "This one is on the house."

The man frowned slightly. "I insist on paying," he said.

Dorine shook her head. "You are Brandon Hartman, aren't you? The pastor's son?"

Catherine's head shot up in surprise. The name Hartman was well-known in Haven's Ridge. The Hartman family ran the largest church in the region, and their influence stretched far beyond religion.

Brandon hesitated before answering. "I am."

Dorine smiled warmly. "Your father officiated my husband's funeral years ago. This is my way of saying thank you."

Brandon paused, then nodded. "I see. Thank you."

He glanced at Catherine again, his gaze lingering for just a moment before he turned and walked to the door. The bell jingled as he stepped out, leaving the shop quiet once more.

Catherine watched him go, her thoughts racing.

"Can you believe that?" Dorine said, breaking the silence.

"What?" Catherine asked, still distracted.

"That we just had a Hartman in here," Dorine said, laughing softly. "They are like royalty around here."

Catherine forced a small smile, but her mind was elsewhere. She could still hear the sound of Brandon's voice and feel the strange pull of his presence.

"I'll go stock the roses," she said quickly, needing an excuse to leave.

She slipped into the back room, grabbing an armful of fresh roses. As she worked, her thoughts kept returning to Brandon Hartman. His name carried so much weight, yet the man she had met didn't seem as untouchable as the stories made him out to be.

When she returned to the front of the shop, Dorine was humming softly as she cleaned the counter. Catherine placed the roses on the shelf, arranging them neatly.

"What are you thinking about?" Dorine asked, glancing at her daughter.

"Nothing," Catherine said quickly, though it was far from the truth.

Her mother didn't press, and Catherine was grateful. She needed time to sort through the thoughts swirling in her head.

As the day went on, the shop grew busier. Catherine served customers with her usual warm smile, but her mind remained elsewhere.

She couldn't shake the feeling that Brandon's visit wasn't just a random moment. There had been something in his eyes, something heavy and unspoken. It was as if he carried a secret, one that threatened to spill over at any moment.

Catherine pushed the thought away, telling herself it was silly. Brandon Hartman was just another customer. He would likely never step into their shop again.

But deep down, she couldn't ignore the small voice whispering that this was only the beginning.

"And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.

HONEY MULLINS
5.0

Six years ago, I was a naive girl sold by my father to the powerful Sanders estate, only to be tossed onto the streets after a brutal assault they labeled "marital infidelity." I fled the country pregnant and broken, hiding from the shadow of a husband I had never even met. Now, I’ve returned to New York with my triplets to sign the final divorce papers and disappear forever. But Archibald Sanders—the man I was told was a crippled recluse—intercepted us with the cold precision of a predator. He didn't see the woman his family destroyed; he saw a gold-digger who had shamed his name. His security team hunted us to a grimy motel, using tactical force to snatch my children away and drag me to his glass-walled empire. In his office, he loomed over me, demanding a DNA test and threatening to throw me in prison while my babies were lost to the foster system. He was convinced I’d cheated, yet he stared at my sons with a haunting confusion, unable to ignore the stormy blue eyes that were a perfect mirror of his own. I stood there, paralyzed by his scent—the sharp tang of rain and expensive leather that triggered the icy dread of my worst nightmares. How could he accuse me of betrayal when he felt exactly like the monster who had shattered my life in that dark hotel room? "I'll sign anything," I sobbed, "just give me my kids." But the game changed when my five-year-old son hacked the tower’s security, holding the skyscraper hostage to save me. In the chaos, a fragile, silent boy—Archibald’s secret son—wandered into the room and reached for me as if I were his missing soul. Archibald’s face turned to stone as he tore up the agreement and locked the doors. "Until I find out why my son is looking at you like that," he growled, "you aren't going anywhere."

Sexy Behind The Mask

Sexy Behind The Mask

Ellie Wynters
4.7

She hides behind ugly suits and fake names. He's done trusting women. When they meet in a masked sex club, neither realizes they've been fighting each other across boardroom tables for eighteen months. At Taylor Industries, she's Joy Smith-the frumpy CFO who drowns her curves in shapeless polyester and wearing a wig. At home, she's the forgotten wife of a cheating lawyer who hasn't touched her in so long she's starting to wonder if she's broken. When she finds hot pink lace panties stuffed in her couch cushions...definitely not hers, it's not heartbreak she feels. It's freedom. Grayson Taylor doesn't do relationships anymore. Not after walking in on his actress fiancée with another woman. Now he channels everything into hostile takeovers and board meetings, especially the ones where his overcautious CFO fights him on every goddamn acquisition. Joy Smith is brilliant, infuriating, and funny when he pushes all her buttons. But Honey is tired of being invisible. Tired of never having felt real pleasure. So, when her best friend gives her the details of The Velvet Room-Manhattan's most exclusive masked club-she promises herself just one night. One night to find out if her husband's right, if she really is frigid, or if she's just never been touched by the right hands. She doesn't expect the masked stranger who claims her the second she walks in. Doesn't expect the chemistry that ignites between them, the way he makes her body sing, or the orgasms that leave her shaking. Doesn't expect him to hand her an email address with one command: "Only me. No one else touches you."
