Accident Prone

Elizabeth (aka Liz): an attractive young lady, smart, career-driven, self-sufficient, wants to save the world (one surgery at a time). Maximilian (aka Max): hot, smart, rich, playboy, who loves to party! What happens when Liz and Max meet due to an accident? Their personalities are clashing but persistent accidents keep pulling them together. An accident: an event that happens by chance or that is without apparent or deliberate cause. ... Mature content! 18+ … Excerpt from the story... Max was confused. "Aren't you appalled by my words? Offended? Why are you still here and not running to your place?" Liz shrugged. "Last night you promised no lies. And I hope that you are comfortable enough with me to say what is on your mind. No matter if you are gay or not, the fact that I feel safe with you will not change. Unless you do something to prove me wrong." Max was surprised by this logic. But then he remembered the deal they made: he will not lie, no games and he will treat her with respect… and she believes him. "You want to know what is on my mind?" He decided to try his luck: "I want to kiss you." Liz frowned for a second while thinking about how to respond. Then she craned her neck and pointed at her cheek. "Here." Max was not sure if he should laugh or cry. "That is not the kiss I was going for." "That is the only one you will get. Take it or leave it." Max is not silly to miss an opportunity. "I will take whatever you are willing to give me." ... This is a heartwarming story that will make you all warm and fuzzy while you laugh and sigh... --- Thank you for reading! ***** I own the cover. ***** Check out my other novels: - "Is this Destiny?" - "Amara - Reunion" - "The Supreme Alpha" - "The Alpha's Bride"

The symposium (6)

Applause shook the air as Liz made her way over the stage. She was relieved when she reached the marked spot where speakers should stand without stumbling on her own feet.

The MC gave Liz a thumbs-up as an OK to proceed, and she took a deep breath to calm her nerves while hoping that her stiff smile didn't reveal how anxious she was.

Liz turned to the back to confirm that the first slide of her presentation is shown on the large screen behind her, and then she started.

"Good afternoon. My name is Elizabeth Williams, and I am a neurosurgeon currently employed by the Franciscan Medical Center in Seattle. Today I will talk about…"

Once she started talking, it took her about five seconds to break the mental barrier she created herself and forget about the nervousness. She smiled while remembering Max's words that the first step is the hardest one.
