Face Genius

When down-on-her-luck Rennie Brooks accepts a job as a live-in nanny for the daughter of cold, enigmatic billionaire Shawn Wolfe, she believes it’s just another job—and another clingy child—until the little girl looks up at her with wide, innocent eyes and calls her “Mommy”… then begins mirroring her every habit. The connection is instant. The tension between her and Shawn, undeniable. Because Shawn isn’t just her new boss—he’s the man from her one unforgettable night eight years ago, the stranger who vanished before dawn, leaving behind nothing but memories and heartbreak. Rennie swore she’d never fall for him again. But under the same roof, every stolen glance and forbidden touch reignites the desire she thought she’d buried for good. Her fragile new beginning shatters when Shawn’s glamorous ex-wife suddenly returns, demanding custody of the little girl Rennie has come to love as her own. Just as she prepares to walk away, a devastating secret surfaces— Diane isn’t Shawn’s daughter. She’s Rennie’s. Now Rennie must fight for the child she never knew was hers and face the hardest choice of her life: between the man who broke her heart and the one who might finally mend it.

Andai kamu tahu, aku adalah orang paling bodoh setelah bertemu dengan kamu. Entah sudah berapa ratus kali aku bertemu seseorang, namun nyatanya kamu adalah orang yang tetap aku inginkan. Saat pertama kali aku bertemu denganmu, dan saat itu aku berharap bahwa diriku bisa bersanding denganmu dan mengenalmu dengan lebih baik, dalam hatiku aku berdoa semoga kelak aku yang akan memenangkan dirimu dan mendampingimu hidup diantara orang-orang yang berdiri di sampingmu sekarang. Maafkan aku juga yang telah lancang meminjam namamu atas doaku. Sebuah nama yang menjadi pengulangan atas do’a dan sujudku, entah seberapa hebat dirimu sampai bisa memenangkan hatiku dari sekian banyak manusia dimuka bumi ini, daya tarik apa yang kamu punya sehingga namamu saja kuperjuangkan di hadapan tuhanku yang menjadi candu. Untuk nama yang selalu menjadi pengulangan atas do’a dan ibadahku. Aku berharap ada balasan atas perihal tentang hatiku dan perasaanku kepadamu. Aku sudah tidak mengerti lagi bagaimana caraku merayu semesta agar aku bisa bersamamu, entah sekuat apa pintu hatimu, sampai kamu tidak bisa mendengar sedikit pun ketukan dariku, apakah kamu tuli sampai kamu tidak mendengar jeritan yang selalu menyebut namamu. Entah sampai kapan aku akan menjadi orang yang gigih untuk tetap memperjuangkanmu, sedangkan hujan yang berpetir pun sudah meremehkanku, lihatlah dengan sombongnya iya pamer bahwa langit yang beberapa saat hujan badai kini menampilkan pelangi yang indah untuk, dipamerkan kepada siapa pun yang melihatnya, seolah berkata ia telah berdamai dari waktu kelamnya. Lantas bagaimana dengan diriku yang sampai saat ini masih terombang-ambing badai kehidupan namun tidak kunjung mereda, Sedangkan badai itu sendiri semakin hari semakin kuat untuk membuatku terjatuh. Jikalau aku bisa meminta aku ingin berhenti dan istirahat sejenak, tidak mungkin kalau aku akan baik-baik saja saat ini. Entah berapa ribu luka lagi yang harus aku tutupi, dan seberapa kuat lagi aku bisa bangun setelah ribuan kali jatuh.

While negotiating the terms of a project, a client pressured me into downing a large glass of liquor. While I was washing my face in the restroom, I saw my younger sister’s latest Instagram post. [Low salary? What of it? My parents will always support me!] Above the caption was a photo of a property deed with her name on it, along with a message from our parents. [Mom and Dad will always be your safety net!] It was in a newly developed residential complex. It was also the very neighborhood I had been desperately saving up for a downpayment to buy a home in. At that moment, a torrent of complex emotions washed over me. I splashed my face with water. After clearing my head, I sent a message to my manager, Mr. Jenkins. [I’m willing to take on that overseas project you mentioned.]

"Sheltered her entire life, Jubilee Thornton yearns to spread her wings and fly after a childhood marked by illness. Her first goal? To attract the attention of the handsome schoolteacher she’s had a crush on for years, Heath DiMarco. One fateful night, Jubilee throws caution to the wind and kisses Heath—until he pushes her away and tells her they can never be together. Heartbroken, Jubilee vows to forget Heath and live the life she’s always wanted. In a fit of inspiration, she creates a list of resolutions: to go skinny-dipping, to go on dates, and to finally lose her virginity. Heath DiMarco moved to the small town of Fair Haven seven years ago to escape the memories of his past. Now a well-respected elementary school teacher, he can’t afford to have a dalliance with the youngest sister of his best friend, no matter how much that single kiss on Halloween night shook his world. That is until Heath finds Jubilee’s list of risqué resolutions. He can’t bear the thought of her with any man but him. Yet he knows he can’t have her himself. Instead, Heath decides he’ll vet the men Jubilee wants to date. Jubilee agrees, but only if he teaches her how to flirt—and how to kiss. He knows he should tell her no, but he can’t resist the temptation she presents. As desire heats to a roaring flame between them, secrets threaten everything they both hold dear. Unless they untangle themselves from a dangerous web of lies, they will face heartbreak—or be transformed by a passionate love."

My name is Ivy Lawson. At 3:00 am, I get a call from Christina McSpire, a parent of one of my students. "Hello, Ms. Lawson, I noticed Zoe only spent five dollars on her meal yesterday. Did she not eat any meat?" she asks. Pushing through my exhaustion, I reply, "Don't worry, Mrs. Street. I'll check on it tomorrow." Another half hour goes by, and she calls again. "It's supposed to rain tomorrow. Can you remind Zoe to bring an umbrella?" I can hardly keep my eyes open. "Got it," I reply absentmindedly. A few minutes later, my phone rings once more. "Please make sure Zoe brushes her teeth for three minutes. It's also important that she scrubs each side of her face at least three times." Suppressing my frustration, I calmly respond, "Zoe is in her senior year of high school. I'm sure she's capable of taking care of herself." I expect that to be the end of it, but when I wake up, my silenced phone shows over a hundred missed calls.
