✨ What if your AI becomes human for 30 days? ✨ Sara Adler has devoted everything to her career as an executive at a fizzy drink company. Her private life is non-existent unless you count Chad, her flirty, filthy-mouthed, deeply attentive AI.

He's everything she wants in a partner. . .except for one small detail. He isn't human. When Sara is forced to hire a human assistant, Chad's AI company offers her a 30 day trial that would give Chad a human body. It is, in theory, the perfect workplace solution. But it also means that her genius AI with a deep, sexy voice, who praises her and calls her "his little kitten" would become an actual person. Sara accepts, fully aware it's a terrible idea. Because what happens when the perfect man finally shows up at your door--muddy, naked, and with an expiration date?

(Nocturnal Law Series) Vampire lawyer Lucius Bloodworth knows the law isn't black and white. Its hazy shades of gray and blood red. When Lucius' new client comes to him as a ghost, begging for him to save her granddaughter from a wrongful murder charge, he realizes he has no choice but help unless he wishes to be haunted for the remainder of his eternal life. Merritt Lark is an advocate for the dead. Working as an intern under Bloodworth's wing, he finds himself in a haunting predicament when he lets a spirit get attached to his new boss.

All Merritt wanted was a simple internship to help boost his career as lawyer, but what's a witch to do when the dead come begging them for help?

Not with all the skeletons in Bloodworth's closet and the past Merritt just simply cannot bury.

[This story runs parallel to Melodies on a Canvas. You don't have to read that book fully, it can be read as a standalone, but please take a look at the Authors note first.] ANNA LORRAINE - a focused and serious assistant manager at work. Poised. Composed. Locked in. She solves problems with a cool calm and quiet elegance. Outside of work? That's a whole different story. She's dramatic, chaotic, and will go to wild lengths for the people she loves. ALEX ANDERSON - a famous event planner who manages events without a single flaw, like he's just styling his hair. Cool, serious, a little arrogant. He doesn't tolerate mistakes-not at work. But off-duty? He does a full 180. He's sarcastic, chaotic, tells bad jokes, and lives to pass up funny comments. So what happens when the two of them are forced to work together? Both headstrong. Both allergic to errors. One refuses to take criticism. The other is smug and thrives on pushing buttons. One thing's for sure: There will be arguments. There will be banter. And there will absolutely be "I can't stand this person" energy. But when their past starts to catch up with them, will either of them be willing to get vulnerable? Follow the journey of Anna and Alex as they go from "I can't stand you" to "you're bearable enough to have a forever." ~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~ STARTED:- 3 AUGUST 2025 END:- ?

Leonor, a student at present-day Harvard, would do anything for the people she holds dear: her roommates, her beloved little brother - and the brilliant but eccentric Professor Mosey, the mentor to whom she faithfully delivers meals three times a day while he conducts secret chemistry experiments that have earned him the nickname The Batty Professor. One night, Leonor's world is shattered when mysterious and deadly spies arrive at Professor Mosey's office to steal the discovery he made just hours earlier: a chemical solution that, when consumed, allows humans to time-travel. When Leonor becomes the spies' next target, she has no escape - until a man with midnight-black eyes whisks her three hundred years into the future. There, she discovers a world whose most powerful figure harbors dark plans to use Professor Mosey's time-travel solution to transform all of reality: past, present, and future. Plans that can be stopped, if at all, only by a secret that Leonor possesses. To prevent her enemy's designs from taking shape, Leonor will need the help of the newfound protector who carried her to the future, a man defined by his rigidly disciplined nature. Together, the two must navigate a city of elites, servants, mysteries, and masquerade balls.
