tmnt 1 3rd print

Wang Zi Rui, a CEO hardened by years of superficial encounters, has no interest in love. Song Meiqi, an idol worn down by betrayal and quiet tragedies, has long stopped believing in something as fragile as love. Pushed by family and circumstance, the two enter a contract relationship—one built on convenience, not affection. But in a romance built on obligation, can two guarded, wounded hearts discover something real in what was never meant to be… and endure the challenges that stand in their way?

This is a pure power fantasy. My MC will always win; it's just a question of how. I will try to make him human en I'm planning on rewriting everything into a separate novel after each arc. I will only put character and creation stat sheets here though. This my first rough draft. I am still writing, but quarantine gives you less free time when you’re juggling more items in your schedule

In this new action packed reality, the teenage mutant ninja turtles stumble upon something, or rather someone that has been waiting for what seemed like an eternity. But how will they handle the truths that this accident will reveal? Will their new friend be able to help them on their adventures or will her presence just make everything more difficult? Only time will tell... ______________________________ **Disclaimer: I do not own the rights to TMNT or (most of) the cover art.** ______________________________

Olivia Chen has spent four years building a career at Hayes & Associates, sacrificing everything relationships, sleep, her mother's approval for a shot at junior partnership. When Declan Kane acquires her firm in a hostile takeover, she expects to be fired like everyone else. Instead, he offers her a position on his personal team. With one impossible condition: marry him for one year. Declan needs a wife to fulfill his grandfather's will and claim controlling shares of Kane Capital before his thirty-fifth birthday.
