"You're not about to carry me out in bridal style again, are you?"
"Do you want me to?" He couldn't help but smirk. Her face from their date surfaced in his memories. He found it just as amusing as back then. Revenge never tasted sweeter. Would she make the same reaction right now?
It was tempting but the venue wasn't the best place for it.
"No!" Eve protested a little too loudly. She pressed her fingers against her mouth and scanned the premise. As she predicted, hundreds of eyes watched them. A groan escaped her lips. She buried her face on the side of his chest, inhaling his cologne.
"Are you sure?" Ambryan asked, genuinely concerned now. He held her chin and raised it. His violet eyes met her hazel ones. The blush on her cheeks had magnified in saturation. He couldn't tell anymore if it came from embarrassment or the alcohol.
Either way, it intrigued him on how much redder she could possibly be.
He leaned down and whispered in her ear. "I'd be gentle this time."

Eve faced the most difficult decision in her life when an opportunity landed on her desk. And that is? To join a special dating site for the most eligible bachelor of the country,
Her boss.
As a secretary, Eve knew affiliations between her and her boss were forbidden. She must stay in his shadow where she didn't pose a threat to his lovers and his admirers. She had taken measures to fit the job, even changing her style of appearance.
Ambryan Hathaway, CEO of Eros Productions, disliked false information. The only ones he allowed were the ones he initiated himself. In order to please his mother, he had participated in the game of love with a string of flings.
Unfortunately, his mother had enough. She must find a way for him to open his eyes and his heart to meeting the right girl. That one spark would be enough for her son to consider marriage.
And who would be the better candidate than his own secretary?

I actually love this story. It avoids a lot of the bad parts about these types of stories without losing the essence. The dialogue flows smoothly, the world building is on point and the characters, while occasionally cliche, are very much believable. The only thing I can complain about is the fact that the main character seems a little double sided, she doesn’t like dishonesty but still lies to the castaway girlfriends that the main lead has in the past.
