Introduction
Life can take many turns and mine is no different. I, Lynn James, have led a life, one in the shadows and one in the light.
The day my life changed forever…
I look through the cracked door. They're both nude and Jessica is Iying on her back with her legs in the air. Chris is on his knees thrusting away. Fuck! I honestly don't know what to feel right now, I didn't think that my high school friend had a reason to sleep with my husband.
"Get out of my house!"
Chris grabs my forearms and throws me hard against the wall.
Chris reaches for me, “Now you listen here you bitch! You're mine and this is my home. I'm not going anywhere!" I try to pull myself up.
He pushes me down," Stay down on your knees where you belong!"
"Go to hell!"
He hits me in the stomach. I shake my head. At this point I'm no longer myself. I'm completely detached from my body.
"I'm pregnant, you bastard!"
My mother always talked about true love. Not just true love from the person you're fucking, but from all of those around you too. She called it Kismet. During my divorce, I realized that I never had that with Chris. I nearly died for nothing!
I had this tingling with Bastian, Ardin, and now Ice. I've had similar sensations with my friends and the few lovers that I've had, but this energy is just unparalleled and I intend to explore it to hell and back too!
The remnants of my aching and tattered soul can finally heal as my new life after the divorce begins.
Lynn James has led an interesting life both privately and publicly. Her abusive marriage took her to the brink of death, but she rose up better than before. Her second life fully began when a man she had been toying with found her on an adult website.
Through their courtship, their pasts permeate the present and they find themselves in The Underworld mafia. Can they use Kismet to protect all that they love or will the demons of their past extinguish their light?

Chapter 1
Prologue
This is the first book in my Kismet Series. It will contain adult themes of domestic violence, murder, miscarriage, animal abuse, and very sexually explicit material. If any of these situations offend you please discontinue reading.
This book was initialy written on a dare. An Indie author that I had been following responded to one of my scene suggestions for her. She dared me to write my life’s story. I joked that no one would want to read it. But I never back down from a dare and Finding Erotic Friends was born that day. The characters and many of the scenes are real. They say that life imitates art but in this case, the art is based on my life.
“Life isn't perfect. Life is messy and sometimes you must get your hands dirty”. This book carries a special meaning which I'll reveal the in the epilogue.
“If you can breathe you can stand. If you can stand, you can fight. Now together we shall rise like a phoenix from the ashes!”

May your life be kissed by Kismet.
Xoxo Kittens,
Lady Darkness aka Lynn Byrne
I am Lynn James in this book and I am proud to introduce my friends because without them I would have never been able to rise!
Now on with part of my story...
I like the variety and the spontaneity. I crave it actually more than I thought I ever would. In my first marriage I felt trapped in my own skin, trapped in a prison of my own design. I should've been honest with myself that he didn't fulfill me. I just assumed me telling him that I rarely orgasmed was enough. I was wrong, so wrong. I forced
myself to stay in a marriage that made me miserable because I was afraid of divorce. I let fear rule and consume me. It denied me the most valuable possession...myself. Don't be afraid to take a chance on yourself. Don't be content with a life of what “ifs”. Take a breath and stand to fight for yourself. Rise above all the hatred and doubt. Rise to be the one that no one can live without! I hope that my story within this one, can empower you to take back your life after a divorce or breakup. No one is worth losing yourself for because you are priceless!

Reborn: My Biased Brothers Beg Me To Come Back
6.9k Views · Completed · Eleanor Sterling
In her past life, Arabella Oberon was the lowest-ranking member of the Oberon family.
She genuinely took in Regina, the butler's daughter, only to be constantly manipulated by this cunning and manipulative woman.
Regina gradually stole the love from her three brothers.
Arabella was forced to give Regina blood transfusions time and again, her weight plummeting to a mere eighty-eight pounds.
Ultimately, under the relentless pressure from her brothers, she jumped out of a window in despair and died. Her last words were,
"What about Regina's blood transfusions?"
When she opened her eyes again, Arabella found herself reborn three years earlier—the very day Regina appeared at her doorstep crying, begging for help.
Looking at the pitiful, tearful girl before her, Arabella smiled.
No more soft-heartedness.
No more groveling.
Instead, she "kindly" arranged for Regina to move into the servants' quarters, to earn her own living through honest labor.
Faced with her brothers who sided with her, she no longer bothered to please them.
And towards her former fiancé, Theodore, whom she had once fawned over, she remained cold, distant, and indifferent.
Moreover, in this life, they would discover that her identity was far more than just the eldest daughter of the Oberon family.

After the Affair: Falling into a Billionaire's Arms

Dear readers, this novel is coming to an end soon. I highly recommend another fantastic story of the same genre:
I’d appreciate all your support, thank you so much!
From first crush to wedding vows, George Capulet and I had been inseparable. But in our seventh year of marriage, he began an affair with his secretary.
On my birthday, he took her on vacation. On our anniversary, he brought her to our home and made love to her in our bed...
Heartbroken, I tricked him into signing divorce papers.
George remained unconcerned, convinced I would never leave him.
His deceptions continued until the day the divorce was finalized. I threw the papers in his face: "George Capulet, from this moment on, get out of my life!"
Only then did panic flood his eyes as he begged me to stay.
When his calls bombarded my phone later that night, it wasn't me who answered, but my new boyfriend Julian.
"Don't you know," Julian chuckled into the receiver, "that a proper ex-boyfriend should be as quiet as the dead?"
George seethed through gritted teeth: "Put her on the phone!"
"I'm afraid that's impossible."
Julian dropped a gentle kiss on my sleeping form nestled against him. "She's exhausted. She just fell asleep."

Fresh out of college and fumbling through his first year in the real world, twenty-two-year-old Lysander wanders away from a friend’s party and into an isolated forest. There, he stumbles upon the high-tech laboratory hidden within the ancient castle of Vivienne—a vampire who has spent one century cultivating solitude. Disgusted by the intimacy required to hunt, she long ago withdrew from humanity, passing the endless decades perfecting homemade synthetic blood rather than sampling the countless varieties of plasma she grew tired of.
But Lysander’s arrival spells disaster. In a clumsy accident, he doesn't just ruin dinner; he obliterates her state-of-the-art scientific instruments. With her life’s work destroyed and her synthetic supply cut off, the scent of his living blood overwhelms her engineered senses. Forced to break a century-long abstinence, she takes what she needs, only to find herself addicted not just to his taste, but to the man himself.
Using the equipment as a flimsy excuse to lure him back, Vivienne battles a terrifying new obsession. She craves his body despite believing he’s taken, despising her own weakness. Meanwhile, Lysander’s initial terror curdles into a forbidden fascination. Can a relationship survive when one person feels everything, and the other only hungers?

I never knew my blood could kill a king—until I met one. Sebastian, the ruthless and immortal King, rules with precision. For centuries, he's ruled with ruthless precision, his heart as cold as the stone throne beneath him. One moment, I'm nothing. The next, I'm his obsession. His touch burns like ice fire. His stare follows me through shadows. And when he feeds from me—God help me—it feels like drowning in darkness and craving more. He tells me my blood is unlike any he's tasted, that my scent drives him to the edge of madness.
He reached for the back of my head and pulled me up just enough to reach my neck. When his fangs slid into me, the pain was instant, electric. I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t think. My hands found his shoulders, clawing for something to hold. My legs kicked. Tears streamed down my cheeks.
He moaned against my throat as he drank, and the sound was devastating.

At the hospital, Asher falls into a coma. His scans reveal bruises, internal bleeding and signs of prolonged physical abuse. Broken and furious, Aveline vows to expose the cruelty hidden behind the prestige of Crestwood Academy.
Cutting off her hair and disguising herself as her brother, Aveline infiltrates Crestwood Academy and fights her way onto the hockey team determined to unmask those responsible. Revenge should have been simple until she meets Kieran Hampton, the team’s arrogant and sharp-eyed star player. From their first clash, tension ignites. Aveline is certain he’s guilty and has no problem making his life miserable, but their undeniable chemistry only draws them closer with every confrontation.

Asher is a Navy veteran with battle scars and zero patience. He calls me "princess" like it's an insult. I can't stand him.

Still.
The image of her standing in the doorway, clutching her cardigan tighter around her narrow shoulders, trying to smile through the awkwardness, won’t leave me.
Neither does the memory of Tyler. Leaving her here without a second thought.
I shouldn’t care.
I don’t care.

It’s not my business if some spoiled little princess has to walk home in the dark.

Especially not her.
Especially not someone like her.
She’s not my problem.
And I’ll make damn sure she never becomes one.
