Ergebnis für "Rubens" in Zeitgenössische Liebesromane

What can I say? I got cocky. One drunken bet and now I've gotta go girl-free for a whole frickin' month. A bet's a bet, though, and now I have to man up and take it… but it's gonna be impossible after last night. Ever since I saved that sassy little freshman from a carload of sleaze bags, she's been under my skin. It's not just the fact she's a hottie. It's more about the fact that she didn't bat her eyelashes or flirt with me. If anything, she insulted me to my face and told me she could take care of herself. And now I'm hooked.

Ruben ist klar, dass es eine beknackte Idee ist, sich auf diesen heißen Surfer einzulassen. Seine Leidenschaft fürs Kochen zeigen seine Hüftpolster. Schon deshalb passt er nicht in die Welt der Sportler mit ihren perfekten Bodys. Wenig überraschend bricht Shane ihm bei der ersten Gelegenheit das Herz. Da noch dazu Rubens berufliche Zukunft auf der Kippe steht, erscheint ihm die Flucht aus Ocean’s View die beste Idee. Kaum ist das Pride-Festival vorbei, bewahrheitet sich Shanes Befürchtung: Ruben ist genauso oberflächlich wie alle anderen Kerle und sieht nur seine sexy Fassade.

He saved me from war. Fed me when I was in too much pain to eat. Smuggled me and my family into America when it became too dangerous to stay. But, Nico didn't flee with us. While I began elementary school in the United States, he was building the greatest and toughest Mafia of the century. The Mafia Shqiptare. Nico is now king of all underground trades. Sexy. Aggressive. Brilliant. After years of nothing but silence, he's back in my life, ready to do whatever it takes to bring me into his universe.

As the bus approaches my stop on the Lower East Side, I raise the hood of my black sweatshirt. Anonymity is key in my neighborhood - particularly as a lone female walking at night. All I want is to leave my crime-ridden shadow of a home in New York City. I've done everything I can to keep my head down and focus on my studies. College is my only goal; love has never been on the map...That is, until my sister brings me to an underground fight, where I meet a gorgeous and mysterious man: Vincent.

When I was sixteen, my only goal was convincing my best friend, Tammy, to be my girlfriend. But I messed it up… and then she got together with another guy. My heart was torn right out of my chest. Everything between us changed—I lost her. But now, after years of not seeing her, she's walking through my door with a kid on her hip and a desperate look on her face. "I don't know where else to go? Can we stay with you for a little while?" Of course, she can stay. It takes everything in me not to tell her to stay forever. Because even after all this time, she's still the one.

No one said adulting in the real world would be easy, and each of the Nolan U Hockey couples is experiencing this firsthand. While Tammy and Baxter fight to make their wedding day a reality, Asher is trying to figure out the perfect way to propose to Lani. Little does he know, she's working on the exact same thing, and there's no way she's going to let him ruin her surprise! Meanwhile, Caroline and Casey are facing yet another unexpected pregnancy while Rachel and Liam mourn the fact that they can't have a baby at all.

Why the hell did no one tell me that condoms don't work one hundred percent of the time? This can't be happening to me. I'm not ready to be staring at a positive pregnancy test and finding out the kid's mine. But I'm also not ready to let the gorgeous redhead with the hottest body on the planet walk out the door, crying, after telling me the news. I have to be there to support her… whether I want to or not. I won't leave her hanging the way Dad left my mom and me. I'll do whatever it takes to support Caroline through this.

There's no way I'm falling for a chick like Leilani. Ugh, dating her would be like spending an entire game in the sin bin. I don't care if her lips are an addictive oasis that I want to dive straight back into. She's a she-devil and I won't succumb to the wicked spells she's casting on me. Except that I can't help myself. Why did I engage? Why did I have to start the conversation and find out how much we have in common? If I let her in, will she see the real me that nobody else knows? But I can't go there... Until she tells me something I will never get over.

I’ve experienced the pain love can cause, and I have no interest in it. Easy relationships and easier women are all I need. Until a shy brunette stops me in my tracks and makes me feel everything I told myself I never would. But will old habits ruin my chances from the very beginning, or can I convince her I’m worthy of her? I’m falling for an innocent virgin, and I’m powerless to stop.

But if I had known who my husband would be, I would have picked death. Leo might be gorgeous and lethal, but he has never met a woman who refuses to bow.
