She had realised that she needed to live life to the fullest and forget about perfection. After all, nobody is perfect.

That's when the trouble began. Updates: 2-3 chaps a week.

His Naughty Lessons

[ Warning: High Heat Alert ] “Harper, stop undressing me with your eyes. The plot isn’t going that way… YET.” Harper McKenzie, a newbie web novel author, has a problem — she struggles with romance scenes. As someone with almost nonexistent real-life experience in the matter, she can’t get the intimate chemistry right, and those chapters always come out dry and cringy. Fortunately for her, Harper finds a freelance editor willing to workshop her writing. But the surprise? That editor turns out to be her childhood friend and the very first crush of her life. What happens now when he offers her personal lessons on how to write the hottest romance … and love scenes? -------------- Note: this is a fun, cozy, sweet story with a low-drama plot. No love triangles, no misunderstandings, no memory loss / car accidents / terminal illnesses / etc.. Mature content abounds, starting out soft but heats up quickly. You’ve been warned! -------------- Sneak Peek: He slid her bra over her shoulders and, with impossibly quick and skilled work, tied the lacy garment around her wrists. “Spread your legs wider,” he ordered. Harper’s already faltering heartbeat faltered some more. The command in his tone was foreign, but it crashed over her like a heat wave, and even though she could barely begin to picture how salacious she must look, with her hands bound and thighs spread wide like an offering to be ravished, she could feel the scorching need coiling hotter and hotter in her core. Her body obeyed eagerly on its own accord, bringing herself fully open just like she was told. Eli grinned. Moving between her legs, he trailed hot kisses along her inner thigh, leaving sizzling little fires crackling in its wake. “Good girl. Now, what should your character say next?” A finger glided over her wet and wanting flesh in a slippery stroke, making her heart slam to a hard stop as a moan tore free. “Write the next line for me, what should I say before I unravel you with my tongue and make you scream my name?”

Most writers don't know how to start a novel or should I say make the first three paragraphs worth reading but, you my friend did it. I have trouble writing in 3rd P.O.V but you showed me the way. Your writing quality is wonderful and I love the way you built up your characters. Nice job.

A very entertaining book! The idea of a bet may seem ordinary and superficial. But what if you can win if you lose and win if you fail? As you go into the story, you will be torn apart. You wish they lose the bet, so they end up together, but at the same time, you want their story to evolve naturally regardless of the bet.

the story is portrayed in a simple everyday life with a unique challenge. the characters felt the need for change; the needed a change of pace. I love the way the author presented the dialogue of various characters—they appeared natural. the identity of the other accessories (perfumes, delicacies, etc.) was an add-up to the engaging style of writing. nice one.

Romance in Paris, what's better then that classic setting? The plotline and the FMC are really complementing to each other. One magnifies the other's beauty. A simple drunken bet being the driving force of the story and the various incidents in the daily life of the characters being so relatable really stirs a perfect combo of a little fantasy in real life. Besides the author's writing style of telling the story to the readers from a third person pov is the best way I like reading a romance novel.❤️❤️❤️

Great story, now I am hungry. It's about mc who has always been a professional, perfectionist from the outside but now her lifestyle was getting boring to her. She should have used tinder or something but she made a bet in drunk state☺️. A bet with her friends was recorded by Thomas (friend) and was posted on the internet for people to see. This can affect her professional image in front of the people from her work. In this, her friend Matthew a lawyer who wants to beat Thomas more than clear his image is with her in it. Will these two only beat Thomas in the end? What kind of changes in their friend circle's relationships will take place with this one bet? Let's see it in the novel's journey. Writing Quality - Great, no major mistakes. Grammar is great. Story development - It is interesting we can see the relationships between the characters now and how they were in the past. We also get to know why some characters are behaving the way. In Thomas case, his hate for Matthew is kind of justified in some way. Character design - The character in the story aren't one dimensional they have layers. Mc herself is the example she is a good friend but she does fight back if provoked. She scheming but she has bad drinking habits. (Don't ask me why these two are connected.) World background - It is similar to our world today just one video or tweet from you can destroy your whole career. World description is done very well, it is detailed yet captivating at the same time. Will I recommend this story? Of course. I will be looking forward to the chapter. Just a suggestion don't read the book on an empty stomach. Keep up the great work author. :)
