THE BILLIONAIRE'S RELUCTANT BRIDE

One coffee spill. One impossible offer. One year that changes everything. Emma Laurent's life is falling apart. At twenty-five, she's just been fired from her dream architecture job, she's drowning in student debt, and her grandmother's medical bills are piling up faster than she can count. With fourteen dollars in her bank account and no prospects, she's officially out of options. Then she collides—literally—with Alexander Sterling. Billionaire. CEO. Devastatingly handsome. And completely off-limits. Their disastrous first meeting ends with his expensive suit ruined and Emma's dignity in tatters. She expects anger. A dry-cleaning bill she can't afford. Instead, he makes her an offer that sounds insane: marry him for one year, and he'll pay her two million dollars. The deal is simple: One year of marriage. Separate bedrooms. Play the loving wife in public, stay strangers in private. Two million dollars when it's over. No messy emotions. No expectations of love. Alexander doesn't want romance—he wants control. Five years ago, his ex-fiancée left him at the altar in a scandal that turned him into a man who trusts contracts more than hearts. He needs a wife to satisfy his business partners, and Emma, desperate and brilliant, is perfect for a temporary arrangement. What could possibly go wrong? Everything. From their City Hall wedding to the moment Emma steps into Alexander's penthouse, the carefully drawn boundaries begin to blur. He notices how she takes her coffee. She discovers the nightmares that haunt him. He buys her a wedding ring engraved with words that matter. She learns that beneath his cold exterior is a man carrying the weight of devastating loss—a dead brother, a broken engagement, and walls built so high even he can't see over them. They're not supposed to care. But caring doesn't follow contracts. As Emma navigates the ruthless world of New York's elite—where Alexander's manipulative ex circles like a predator and every smile is a weapon—she realizes her emotionally guarded husband isn't cold at all. He's catastrophically broken. And despite knowing better, she wants to help him heal. Alexander, meanwhile, discovers that the woman he hired is dangerously real. Her strength undoes him. Her presence fills spaces in his life he didn't know were empty. She's awakening something he thought died years ago: hope. But their contract has an expiration date. When shadows from their pasts resurface—betrayals, threats, and impossible choices—Emma and Alexander face the hardest question of all: Can something that started as fake become the most real thing they've ever known? Because the most dangerous part of a marriage of convenience isn't the arrangement. It's falling in love when you know exactly when it has to end. Perfect for fans of marriage of convenience, slow-burn billionaire romance, and couples who heal each other while falling impossibly in love. One contract. Twelve months. Forever consequences.

Mysteries Stuck In Time

Noctis accepts a simple job as a gardener at the isolated Vexwood Manor, expecting routine work and quiet days. Instead, he finds himself trapped in a place governed by unspoken rules and unsettling silences. The servants are polite yet distant, the corridors unnaturally empty, and certain areas of the mansion are strictly off-limits—most notably, the third floor. While exploring the manor, Noctis discovers a diary belonging to the previous gardener. Its fragmented entries describe repeated explorations, strange warnings, and specific locations within the mansion that seem tied to hidden truths. What initially appears to be guidance slowly reveals itself as something more troubling—clues that suggest the manor is not merely a residence, but a trial. As Noctis investigates the corridors and studies the mansion’s paintings, he begins to notice recurring names tied to the Vexwood family, yet finds no information about them beyond the manor’s walls. His attempts to understand the place only deepen his isolation, as contact with the outside world proves impossible. His curiosity nearly costs him dearly when he attempts to climb to the forbidden third floor. Stopped abruptly by the head maid, whose sudden appearance and inhuman composure leave him shaken, Noctis realizes the rules are enforced not by words—but by fear. When she vanishes without a trace, the warning becomes clear: the mansion is watching. Left with unanswered questions and limited choices, Noctis decides to turn his attention to the one place left unexplored—the basement. Not because he wants to, but because the manor has quietly guided him there. And for the first time, he understands that every step he takes is part of something far greater than he imagined.

I was Kidnapped for Revenge by a Ruthless Alpha

[MATURE CONTENT] Eighteen years ago, blood stained the halls of the Full Moon Gala. The Vampires came slaughtering nearly every wolf shifter at the gala, including the visiting royal family. Blood drenched the earth, and when the carnage ended. Prince Ambrose, soaked in the screams of his people, he rose from the ashes with a single vow: Blood for blood. Eighteen years later, Ambrose is now Alpha King, ruthless, unyielding, and revered by his pack. But his thirst for vengeance never dulled. His target? Princess Odette. Odette isn’t a delicate doll. She’s fire wrapped in silk. Born of power, and unafraid to destroy. Raised by the very monsters that broke him. Ambrose wants to break her. But this princess doesn't break easily. Captured. Kidnapped. Claimed. The girl he wanted to destroy becomes the woman he can’t stop watching. Touching. Needing. Their bond is dangerous. Twisted. Forbidden. Can love be born of vengeance? What if a terrifying and dangerous threat rises from the shadows? Can a millennia long blood feud be overcome or will they destroy themselves before the enemy even has a chance? Ex: “I missed how you talked back. I can smell the fire burning inside you. Your arousal. It’s strong. Now be a good girl and lie still.” He requested with what sounded like a polite tone but was really just a cover for his sick twisted thrill. “You don’t smell shit from me.” I was getting angry. I know he probably has armed my collar again or I’d throw him across the room and untie myself, give him a piece of my mind. But another part of me. Some twisted sick masochist piece of me wanted to find out how the game was played. He quickly closed the distance between us, reaching to tie the blindfold over me. The minute my vision darkened alarms rang in my head. Every sense was heightened. It was intense and overpowering. “Ever been touched here, by man?” I shook my heads no. He lifted his hand from my skin, and that’s when I realized I’d been holding my breath. He moved to my stomach. “How about here?” I shook my head no. He was driving me crazy, my skin was screaming for more, despite my better judgement, I also wanted more. His warm gentle touch sent a ripple of heat rolling down my back. I desperately wanted to know what yes would mean. My heart was thundering. The pit in my stomach became and ache between my legs. And then hot, soft lips crashed into mine, stealing my breath, it was anything but gentle. It was violent, all consuming, and possessive. Something twisted in me, I opened my mouth like a weak idiot and let him in. Let his tongue explore my mouth. I gave in completely surrendering to him. “You taste far better than I expected.” He sounded almost as breathless as me. I could hear his heart pounding just like mine. He touched my neck next. I nodded yes. Not just because it was true, but because I wanted it. I shouldn’t want it, but I did. Desperately. I wanted to feel the touch of his lips again. And my wish was granted. He bit into my neck softly first and started sucking and kissing on me. A moan escaped me, one I didn’t see coming. The bite at first hurt, but the sucking on my neck eased the pain, sending a jolt of pleasure through me. ***Updates come, but they're slow!***
