Green Card E-book

William Harper has it all: looks, money, power. There’s just one tiny problem—he’s about to be deported. *This book is Make You Blush on the Heat Scale* Excerpt: “Death by Chocolate Cake or the Molten Lava Brownie?” “I'm having the tiramisu,” Jen answered her sister as they perused their menus. The waiter stepped up to the table to take their orders. “Tiramisu and a cappuccino,” Jen said. “I'll have the Death by Chocolate Cake a la mode. And can you drizzle a little hot fudge over that? And a cup of cocoa with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.” Jen looked at her sister quizzically, but said nothing. Liz looked at the man walking past and felt herself flush. “Wow. He's so tall. Did you see his arms?” Liz's eyes watched him until he turned the corner, then looked back at her sister who had an amused look on her face. “Down girl!” Jen laughed. “You okay?” “Yeah, I'm great. Why?” “Oh, I don't know. You've just checked out every guy who's walked by in the last hour, including one who looked like Santa.” She leaned back when she saw the waiter approach. He quietly set down their desserts and left. “And you just ordered about two pounds of chocolate.” “I'm just craving chocolate. It's no big deal.” As she finished her sentence, she unknowingly turned her head to follow a man in a dark suit walking past their table in the busy restaurant. “Uh-oh. Oh, no,” Jen said, shaking her head. “What?” “How long has it been?” “Has what been?” Jen looked at her with raised brows and don't-mess-with-me eyes. “All right! It's been a while.” “How long is a while?” “Jeremy.” “Jeremy!” Jen cried. “Shhh! You don't have to announce it to the world!” “You mean to tell me you haven't gotten laid since Jeremy?” Jen whispered furiously. “You broke up last February!” “I know.” “It's October!” “I know,” she said lowly through clenched teeth, leaning over the table so no one else would hear her. “Wow. I thought you and Will agreed to sleep together? Didn't you talk about it in the beginning?” “Yeah, we talked about it and we agreed it was okay, but it's kind of awkward now.” “What do you mean awkward?” “I mean I feel like we're friends now.” “And that's a problem because...?” “I've never done it with a friend!” “It's called friends with benefits. People do it all the time.” “I know that. I just thought it would happen naturally, but we haven't even gotten close. Now I'm afraid we're too firmly established in the friend zone.” “The zone isn't a death sentence. It's not like you're related or anything. You can adapt.” “I know that logically, but what if he doesn't want to? I don't want to humiliate myself.” “Why would you think he doesn't want to? You're hot!” “He hasn't made a single move. He's been the perfect gentleman. Unfortunately,” Liz mumbled. “And you don't want a big awkward mess with someone you consider a friend.” “Exactly.” “Weren't you friends with Jeremy?” “Before I dated him! Then we dated for like two months before we slept together.” Jen looked at her doubtfully. “Okay, two weeks, but still!” Tropes / Themes in this book: ✔️ Friends to Lovers ✔️ Forced Proximity ✔️ Millionaire Romance ✔️ Hilarious One-Liners ✔️ Slow Burn ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unputdownable!
