Friends With Benefits Series

Practical to a fault and a little uptight, Kori has been denying herself something she's wanted for months...CJ. Tall, dark, rich, and handsome, CJ is the guy of her dreams. But he's a notorious womanizer, sleeping with every beautiful woman he sees. Kori doesn't want to be just another notch on his belt, even though she desperately wants him, and keeps saying no when he propositions her. CJ finds Kori interesting, sweet, and most importantly, breathtakingly beautiful. He wants her so much its almost painful, but she keeps denying him. It's frustrating beyond belief. Rich enough to have everything he's ever wanted laid at his feet, he hates the fact that Kori won't cave. When his cousin, Derek, who also happens to be Kori's ex, offers him a "solution" to his problem, CJ finds himself tempted. In the past, Derek has slipped Kori something to mellow her out, something with an interesting side effect...it makes her horny as hell. Derek offers the magical "herb" for a price. He wanted to be with her as well. When CJ seduces her, Derek wants to be there to play as well. He knows it's wrong, but CJ accepts Derek's terms. He wants Kori, and Derek's solution seems like the only way he'll ever get her. The only hitch, he's not willing to give it to her without her knowledge. He offers it to her, telling her what's it's meant for (though conveniently leaving out the bit about the horny side effect), and she reluctantly agrees. Soon, Kori is feeling the effects, and when CJ makes his move, she happily agrees this time. What follows is a night she'll never forget...even if it's likely to change their friendship forever. **This hot, sizzling romance is intended for adult readers only as it contains adult situations, language, and explicit sexual content.

When Kori wakes up the next morning naked and curled up with someone else, she is momentarily confused. Memories of the night before quickly come flooding back to her. She feels a mix of emotions, not the least of which is humiliation, for agreeing to sleep with both Derek and CJ. She doesn't really regret it...being with CJ was more than she had ever dreamed it could be. Her deepest desires came true, and she had the man of her dreams - her insanely rich, handsome, irresistible, charming and sexy alpha male - and it's something she will never forget. The only thing to taint the memory is the thought of Derek touching her again. She had never wanted that. Despite how good he makes her feel physically, she cannot forgive him for the past. She can't help but wonder why CJ would allow such a thing in the first place. He might share her with another girl, but his dominate, alpha male personality didn't really lend itself to sharing anything with another man, even his own cousin. She wants answers, but when she hears the truth, she regrets pushing. Humiliated, scandalized, and angered by CJ's betrayal, she tries to leave but he won't let her go. He seduces her again, and despite her best effort, she cannot resist him. They spend a wild morning together, proving that the explosive chemistry from the night before was not a onetime thing. The sexual chemistry and the attraction between them is electric, but will that be enough to preserve their relationship after such a betrayal? *This sizzling, sensual romance story is intended for adult readers only as it contains language and situations suitable to those 18+, and contains explicit sexual content. **This is the second book of the series.

It's been weeks since Kori has allowed herself to speak to C.J. She's been dodging his calls, mostly ignoring his texts, and refusing to answer the door when he shows up. She knows she's being ridiculous, that she can't avoid him forever, but she's just not ready to let him back into her life. His betrayal still stings, and she's terribly embarrassed. She just can't face him. C.J is relentless, though. Her silence hasn't deterred him in the slightest, and she knows he'll never give up until she sits down to talk with him. The only problem is...C.J will never be satisfied with simply talking. She knows that. If she lets him in, he'll just end up seducing her again. When the phone rings early in morning, she's not at all surprised to find that the caller is C.J. She ignores it, but can't ignore the message he leaves on her voicemail. He tells her he's on his way over to talk. Kori considers just letting him in this time, but ultimately rejects the idea, and decides to flee. She gets a huge surprise, though, when she pulls open the door to find herself coming face to face with C.J. He tricked her, knowing she'd end up fleeing rather than facing him. He quickly takes advantage of her shock and worms his way inside, demanding that they talk. And as much as she really doesn't want to, she realizes there's no way around it. She has to talk to him. Feeling defensive and unhappy, she begrudgingly takes a seat on the couch with him. C.J is the first to break the silence, wanting to know why she's been avoiding him. She gives him the answers he wants, trying to stay calm, but the conversation just upsets her all over again. He tries to apologize with words, but she doesn't want to hear it, so he tries in a more direct way. He pulls her close and kisses her. Startled, she tries to resist him for a minute, but pretty soon, her resistance melts away, and she finds herself caving to his every demand. There's no way she can cut him out of her life. She craves his touch, craves his company, and now that she's let him back in, there's no turning back. *This book contains adult content and is intended for an adult audience only. 18+ strongly recommended.

A few months into their relationship and everything is good. It's better than good, in fact. Kori has never been happier, every moment with him is pure bliss, and it seems like CJ feels something similar. When he gives her a beautiful chain to celebrate three months together, Kori is exceptionally touched by the gesture. His suggestion to give her a gift of her own is more than a little tempting. He's eager to push her boundaries, and after a little hesitation, she's willing to play along, giving him whatever he wants, and CJ is quick to take full advantage of that, giving them both a night to remember. **This book is intended for readers 18 +, as it has adult themes and language. Reader discretion is advised.

Things had been going well between Kori and CJ. She had never been happier and found herself falling desperately in love. But fate had other plans.

Fool me twice, shame on me" runs through her mind over and over again. She realizes CJ will never change, that he will always be selfish and self-centered, caring for no one but himself. Feeling foolish for ever believing differently, she knows it's time to cut him from her life. She simply cannot and will not forgive a second betrayal...no matter how much it costs her.
