I spent twelve years loving Mason Hayes. Twelve summers. Twelve birthdays. Twelve years of almosts. The problem wasn't that he didn't know. The problem was that he did. He just never realised what it was costing me. When Mason arrives at our annual lake house vacation with a girlfriend on his arm, I finally understand something I should have learned years ago: Sometimes loving someone isn't enough. So I leave. And for the first time in his life, Mason has to figure out what it means to lose me. A grovel-to-HEA romance about unrequited love, heartbreak, and finally choosing yourself.

𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐚 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 and 𝐀𝐬𝐡𝐭𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐨; two best friends whose relationship is built on trust, late-night conversations, and a bond neither of them ever questioned. But one-night changed everything. It wasn't a mistake. It was planned, just a friend helping a friend. A line crossed and suddenly the rules between them no longer mean what they used to. Now Ashton can't get Elena out of his head, not the way she looked at him that night, the way she felt around him... and it was at that moment everything inside him snapped. For Elena, it was supposed to mean nothing beyond curiosity, something for her to finally experience. But Ashton is already past the point of pretending.

W H I T E O U T ❅ The contract was simple: Two weeks. Two hundred grand. Don't fall in love. For 𝑱𝒐𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒆 𝑩𝒂𝒑𝒕𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒆, it's a desperate bid to survive her debt. For 𝑯𝒂𝒅𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒏 𝑺𝒊𝒏𝒄𝒍𝒂𝒊𝒓, the cold heir to a billion-dollar empire, it's just business. Play the adoring girlfriend for his family's winter retreat, take the money, and leave. Then a blizzard hits. Stranded entirely alone in a remote mountain estate, the icy boundaries between them melt into a bruising, suffocating heat. But when the snow clears and the contract expires, Joelle quickly learns a terrifying truth: Hadrian Sinclair doesn't let go of what's his. The phone lines are cut. The snowplow is sabotaged. The doors are locked. The blizzard is over, but Joelle's nightmare is just beginning. Because the only thing more dangerous than a man with a frozen heart, is the monster that wakes up when it thaws. ❅ "The contract has expired, Hadrian. The roads are clear. Let me go." His pale eyes dropped to my lips, his thumb tracing the pulse racing at my throat. "What roads, Joelle? It's still snowing. We're snowed in. We'll be snowed in forever."

Seth's expression was unyielding, his next words delivered with ruthless precision. "I, Seth Langston, Alpha of the Moonlight Pack, reject you, Ariah Lockwood, as my mate and as Luna of this pack. As Alpha, my word is law. I don't need your acceptance to sever this bond." I can't remember the last time I smiled-or even felt happy. My nightmare began the day I couldn't shift at ten years old, unlike everyone else in the pack. Since then, it's been an endless torment. Why am I the only one broken? Why must I suffer for something beyond my control? Why am I cast aside by those I thought were my family? But it's alright. Everything will be alright. Because I will be their downfall.

She was the light he never wanted... and the only one who made him see again. Rowan Cassius Argyros once had everything-success, charm, and a future as bright as the sun. But when an illness stole his eyesight, it didn't just take away his vision. It shattered his trust, hardened his heart, and left him convinced that love had no place in his world. Enter Harmony Noëlle Sinclair-a nursing student with a heart too soft for her own good, whose laughter feels like light itself. She's determined to see the good in everyone, even the brooding man who hides behind cold words and dark glasses. What begins as routine check-ups slowly turns into late-night walks, café encounters, and an undeniable pull neither of them can resist. For the first time in years, Rowan feels something stirring-hope. Desire. Maybe even love. But opening his heart again means risking the pain he swore he'd never endure. And Harmony? She'll have to decide if she's strong enough to break through the walls he's built, even when he pushes her away. A story of healing, second chances, and the unexpected ways love can teach us to see again.

Life was bad for Neviah. She was an innocent girl that had nothing to live for. Her parents were killed and she was tormented with what was left of her so called 'family'. Everything in her life was pointless until she made a life changing deal with a dragon. Having his baby. Signing her life away to be his. He was feared and dangerous for what he was. She knew not what she was, struggling to keep control of the power that raged inside. Now everything that she has ever known was a lie and the truth kept unravelling. She's unique.

*PREVIEW (CH. 31)* "Leave. I'm not in the mood to-" I walked out of the bed room, but the words died when I saw Star Struck standing in the entryway, wrapped in a long coat. "Oh, Mr. Cross..." Her voice slurred as she clutched the keycard, clearly running on whatever liquid courage she'd taken to invite herself right in. "The hell are you-" "It's Belle," she reiterated, like I gave a damn to know her name. "How the hell did you get into my room? Don't tell me your father did-" "No! H-he doesn't know," she said, stepping closer. "Your uncle said you were only upset today about the news, so... I just thought I would cheer-" She stopped dead in her tracks, her eyes going big as she took in the beaten sight of me. "-you up?" Santiago. Yet another man's name, and the absolute last one I cared to hear. "And you listened?" "No, it makes sense for you to be upset. That's okay..." She chuckled, speaking in circles. "You even got hurt so badly, too. Can I help you with-" "You can't do a goddamn thing for me. Leave." "No." She adjusted her posture to look me in the eye dead on. "You told me didn't like good girls? So... why would I listen to you now?" I cocked my head, narrowing my eyes as I studied her slim frame intensely, letting the silence stretch between us until she shifted uncomfortably. She was so much like the women I had before in the first run, it was almost uncanny to really look at her. But more than that, she wasn't Amelia. And right now, that was the best thing about her. "No... Keep bein' a good girl." She hesitated for a fraction of a second, a sharp, eager smirk cutting through. I made my way to the couch, pouring myself a glass of the remaining gin before downing it. I sat with my legs spread wide, waiting for the old routine to work. Yet she stalled, eyes watching me sip from the glass. I snapped my finger, making her eyes meet mine. "You wanted to play with me? Come here or leave, I'm not gonna beg you."
