Only a Taste
Updated at Dec 31, 2020, 00:30
Some of us have to choose; family, or love? Mandi: This was supposed to be my final farwell; my last night of freedom before moving back in with my conservative Punjabi parents. One night without a curfew; without any questions about where I'm going or who I'm meeting. I never expected to spend it with a man, but I'll take that too. Why not? The only problem is, he might be a keeper and my family will never approve. They've got their hearts set on marrying me off to a suitable boy from our own community, not some white man I had a one night stand with... Callum: I'm used to getting what I want in my professional life as well as my personal one; such is life when you're a celebrity chef. One night in Brighton shows me that sometimes it's nice to leave all that behind and focus on the basics. Mandi doesn't seem to care that I'm rich and famous; she's just looking for one night of fun and has chosen to spend it with me. But once I've got a taste of what I could share with her, how will I be able to let her go? This interracial/multicultural romance features a British Asian woman and her struggle between the conservative family values she grew up with and her desire to create her own future with a partner of her choice. Will she be able to leave her feelings for Callum behind and commit to the arranged marriage her parents have envisioned for her? Read on and find out. Chance Encounters is a series of stand-alone contemporary romances set in jolly old England, following a set of loosely connected women as they find love in unexpected places. What do they have in common? When they meet their match, it is purely by chance, yet passion strikes immediately. They'll have to deal with the consequences of their actions once the sun comes up...

From my boring call centre job right down to my practical wardrobe; impulsive and extravagant are not part of my usual vocabulary. Ascot, the home of British horse racing might be my home as well, but the filthy rich visitors blocking my route home are more a nuisance than a thrill. Until one of them catches my eye... And I can't help myself but invite him into my home. Peter: It was the worst day of my life, until suddenly it wasn't.

Is it still cheating, if she's done it to me first? I'd like to think not. It's just a chance at a new beginning. It all begins with a chance meeting at the side of the road. Neither of them could foresee just where their one night of passion would lead. Can love conquer all, from class differences to age gaps? Read on and find out.
