Summary: Photobucket

 

A chance encounter on an elevator causes two people to reevaluate the meaning of love and life. Can true love be met all while Chasing Venus? Can a wallflower change? Can a savvy businessman learn that love is the riskiest deal of all? Interracial romance. What happens when cultures cross, in-laws meet, and an unconventional woman faces a very traditional family?

Title: Chapter 2: Chapter Two

Great update!

Mommy showing up with your ex in tow wearing a ring she shouldn't still be wearing is not good.

I wonder what those two are up too? Marrying Ryochi off? So much for flirting and having dinner with Nadia!

Update again soon.

Title: Chapter 1: Chapter One

Loved the beginning!

Nadia and Ryouchi are cute together... a nice blend of opposites.

Great job capturing the reader's attention with a unique intro. I HATE ELEVATORS; bu I wouldn't mind being stuck on one for a little while with a handsome man.

On to the next chapter!!

Title: Chapter 11: Chapter 11

Just caught up.

I love this story.

They may have been in love and had a baby; but Celina and Jake were too young and immature for the responsibility.

I'm rooting for Celina and Jake getting back together and staying together this time.

Keep those updates coming!!

Title: Chapter 2: Chapter 2

LOL. Nice beginning.

I like Audre. Girl is not shy about expressing her inner meow. I liked her reflection on first meeting "the other woman." I love Henry's fine self, but I'm sure I won't love Greg. Men! What can I say? Gotta love em. Gotta hold back from strangling their asses!!

 On to the next chapter!!!

Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3

LOL. Yup. I knew I was going to hate Greg. And yup. That was a prime example of a "she really shoulda strangled the jackass" moment.

Damn, that was tacky!! Not only do you not attempt to upstage the bride in what you wear but you do not steal the show by making a proposal in the middle of toasting the newlyweds... in front of your former girlfriend and her friends!!

Great story!!

Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5

Audre's revenge fantasies are too funny.

By my calculation, Greg was cheating on Audre. He did not get wih Cassandra AFTER Audre broke up with him. I can't wait for her to find this out.

Title: Chapter 17: Chapter 16

Ugh. Family. Audre's mother and sister seem to suck all the air out of a room and all the life out of Audre. I like her father though. I almost fell off the couch laughing at his comments about the college boyfriend and his "back out shoes." Audre and Christian are HOT.

Great chapter!

I enjoyed reading this.

I've never understood cutting. I swear I suffer everytime I accidentally cut myself. I don't get doing so on purpose.

Thanks for the one shot.

Title: Chapter 28: Chapter 28 Questions Answered

Great twist to this story!!

What evil, greedy people to come up with such a scheme. This explains a lot. Also, maybe some of that natual connection Saige seemed to have to the babies from the start. I'm glad it also will work out for J & J and their babies.

Dang, that's a whole lotta babies the same age between the two couples/brothers!!

Title: Chapter 23: Chapter 23 Will to live or will to die ?

Thanks for the updates!!

I'm envisioning total chaos, mayhem, and madness with five kids the same age running around as the two Steele brothers and their wives wonder what the hell they've gotten into. So, I'm hoping everyone is alright.

Also, I'm dying to find out what Charlene, the triplets mother, was up to with Jeffrey.

Until next time...

Great preview, RP. I'm a HUGE fan of Bonded. Nolan is a hoot and way over the top at times, but definitely worthy of his own story.

Hmmm... so finish Bonded. I'll be waiting to get Hooked.

Summary:

I have always been alone and that was all I knew how to be. My mother and father only showed up on two occasions: my dreams and my nightmares. In my dreams, they were normal people who worked nine-to-five jobs. They were always there when I needed someone to talk to. We lived in a suburban area where all the neighbors watched me grow up. We were average people in my dreams, but in my nightmares, the truth came out. My mother was a city prostitute with a drug addiction. She slept with numerous men; consequently, my father had a name or a face. For all I know, he was just a quick [ rendevous ] to help her habit. I have bounced around from different foster homes, never finding a place that I was truly happy with or that was ever happy with me.

Title: Chapter 1: Jake.

Working with victims of DV, I see how a young woman's future can be ruined by the loss of innocence and self-esteem that childhood physical, emotional, and sexual abuse undoubtedly causes.

Even the smartest, most talented person with great people like Henry and Miss Irene loving and caring for them cannot resist being drawn to the Amirs that darken their lives and paths.

Recognizing, accepting and giving healthy love, having healthy relationships and lives is such an uphill battle of hope and preseverance... understanding and encouragement.

I won't do my soapbox about the throwaways of the foster care system like Jake...

Thanks for the great heartfelt story.

I'm on to the sequel!!!

Summary:

With this ring, I thee wed…wait a minute-What?!

Okay so sure, every since Lorraine has known Justin she’s always taken his hand without any hesitation. However, what they never had in mind was taking each other’s hand in marriage. Especially when their significant others are waiting at home.

Don't know what to do

What to say

Not sure what to tell you

Confused...

Unsure what to do after drunken “I Do’s” have been said, now sober they are only left to wonder…

Were they just empty meaningless vowels?

Or do intoxicated words hold more truth then their willing to face?

Which way do I 

Take your hand

Or let go…

take  

Lyrics: Take Your Hand by Usher

Title: Chapter 1: The Proposal “I Do; Don’t I?”

So far I'm liking this a lot. Please continue.  

A proposal. Marriage. It's a serious decision that a lot of people just don't think carefully about. But it can all work out in the end.

I can't wait to see where you take this.

Title: Chapter 2: I Do: “But to Who?!”

Intoxicated on alcohol or love, a girl's gotta know when the right guy pops the question, right? Families who like to plan your life for you, just canno recognize that some decisions are best made on your own and with your heart in mind not social standing or status.

Still loving this story.  



Author's Response:

but i agree with you, im excited you get the feel of where im going with this. i got a new chapter coming out tonight, so i hope you enjoy and thanks again for the support - dani

Summary:

Spencer Edwards is a happy bachelor. He’s got a great job, lives in a great penthouse, and thanks to his good genetics, a fair amount of luck where the ladies were concerned. Family was the furthest thing from his mind, but apparently, life had other plans.

 

His world is turned upside down when his older sister and brother-in-law die suddenly, leaving their two young children in his care. Spencer can barely take care of himself, and he’s not so sure he should be placed in charge of anyone else.

 

But a light appears at the end of the tunnel when spirited, no-nonsense live-in Nanny Reese Talbot enters their lives. Through ups and downs and self-discovery, Spencer learns just what it takes to be a Family Man.

Love, love your stuff, RP. Spenser is in so far over his head. LOL. The nanny interviews reminded me of my trying to pick a day care center for my little girl two years ago. Scary. Funny. Unbelievable Twilight Zone stuff. Exahausting. You captured it all.

Title: Chapter 5: IV

Reese and Spencer are a real hoot together. I couldn't stop laughing at the exchanges between the two of them. Bringing Selia home with the kids there was a bit tacky, but I'm sure Reese will set Spencer straight on that little issue in the morning.

I'm truly enjoying this story. Looking forward to reading more.

I patiently waited through Spencer's denial. I'm ready to see how his attitude and behavior changes now as he openly deals with his and the kids' grief.
