📢 Final polished copy now on Kindle pre-order! Releases Oct 1st, 2025 (paperback soon!) 📖✨ Emily Carter thought she had it all - a husband, a home in LA, and a hilarious three-year-old son. Then she walked into her guest room and found Jake naked with his assistant. Now Emily's out for answers (and a little revenge), armed with sarcasm, a "stupid evidence folder," and Ollie, her toddler sidekick who blurts out every secret he overhears. Jake might think he can win her back with roses, date nights, or karaoke ballads, but Ollie's truth bombs - and Emily's razor-sharp wit - prove otherwise. This isn't just a story about betrayal. It's a romantic comedy about strength, second chances, and the hilarious honesty of kids who always say the quiet part out loud. Because in Emily's world, one thing's certain: Memily always wins, and Ollie always gets his nuggies. As for the handful shouting "AI wrote this!" - kindly fuck off. I know it's easier to assume a robot is behind my work than to admit a human being out here with a job, a family, and zero sleep is still more creative than you. But trust me: this mess, this madness, this weird blend of comedy and heartbreak? 100% human-powered. If AI ever learns how to write Wattpad stories while half-laughing, half-crying over its own characters, then maybe I'll worry. Until then, take a seat.

When a world-renowned Black surgeon Dr. Amara Blake finds a bruised, shivering four-year-old boy abandoned behind a dumpster, her instinct is immediate-save him. She has no idea that the quiet, broken child she's nursing back to life is the missing heir of Sergei Mikhailov, a ruthless Russian mafia don with a blood-soaked past and billions at his command. As Amara and little Nikolai form an unbreakable bond, Sergei's desperate search leads him straight to her door-and to a woman whose strength, warmth, and unapologetic grace challenge everything he thought he knew about power and love. But the past is never far behind. As danger creeps closer and secrets unravel, Amara and Sergei must confront the darkness threatening their fragile new world. What begins as protection becomes devotion, and what starts in survival ignites into something neither of them expected: a love powerful enough to rewrite their futures. Beneath Her Grace is a gripping, slow-burn romantic drama about healing, redemption, and the kind of love that makes even the most dangerous men kneel. #1 in Russian

New York never slept, but that night, the Ricci household did. The penthouse, usually filled with laughter, music, and the scent of fresh espresso, had fallen into an eerie silence. The soft hum of the baby monitor sat unnoticed on the bedside table. No one heard the creak of the nursery door. No one noticed the absence of breath from the bassinet. By morning, the world had changed. Three year old Alessandro Ricci was gone. The first scream came from Valentina, the eldest daughter. She was the one who found the empty crib, the soft blue blanket discarded on the floor. Then came the chaos-the panic in their father's voice as he barked orders in rapid Italian, the trembling in their mother's hands as she clutched the baby's last-worn onesie. The police swarmed in, news cameras soon followed, and for days, the Ricci's were a family under siege. A family in mourning. Days turned into weeks. Weeks into months. The trail went cold. The whispers began-speculations, doubts, cruel insinuations that an influential family like theirs should have been able to protect their own. But the Ricci's knew the truth. Someone had taken Alessandro. And three years later, as the city moved on, they never did. Because somewhere out there, their baby brother was waiting to come home.
