Sage is getting tired being the talk of topic within her friend group. But unlike her hook up-happy and sexually active friends, she refuses to settle for a meaningless one-night stand to satisfy her needs. When her drunk friends suggest the ultimate taboo in her book - asking her gorgeous roommate and childhood friend, Jakob, to help her "situation" - Sage dismisses it. It's a terrible idea. It's an unspoken rule of roommate etiquette. But once the dynamic shifts, the tension in their shared apartment becomes impossible to ignore. Crossing the line could ruin their life-long friendship... or it could be exactly what they've both been looking for.

"I will love you until the day I die. Even if my mind has grown old and I do not remember myself, I will remember you." ~~~~~~~~ Rhynys Jodan had everything figured out: a scholarship paid for by the Citadel, the incredible elemental abilities passed through the Jodan line, a dragon swift enough to take her across the sea to Lovander, and a place to learn among the most promising mages of her generation. The only thing she hadn't accounted for was Nedim Bhehle. A wealthy human with an innate, unexplainable talent for magic, Nedim has skipped years of schooling to join Rhynys's advanced classes. To Rhynys, he's an arrogant outsider who bought his way into a place he hasn't earned. To Nedim, she's an entitled mage whose famous surname earns her respect she doesn't deserve. She hates him. But between magical exams, dangerous lessons, ancient ruins, and a rivalry neither of them is willing to lose, Rhynys and Nedim find themselves spending far more time together than either would like. And somewhere between the arguments and a magical quest, the line between hatred and something else begins to blur. Warning: this story contains mature content and is intended for a mature audience.

𝐕𝐈𝐕𝐈𝐄𝐍𝐍𝐄 𝐋𝐄𝐄 is pretty sure her new neighbor is a serial killer. What else could explain his antisocial behavior, creepily minimalistic apartment, and that inhumanly emotionless demeanor? Not to mention the bloody body parts that have started showing up. It's too bad she's not scared of him. Or his unveiled threats on her life. But an emotionally scarred gangster on the run -- riding the brink of insanity and followed by a host of trouble -- is a lot more than she could've bargained for. 𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐌𝐎 𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐍𝐎 is beyond redemption. Capo of the Romano crime family, the sociopathic Prince of Chicago, hell wrapped in a designer suit. He exemplifies cold precision and perfect control. His job has always come easily to him for the very same reason that his name is feared widely: he's incapable of emotion. But something horrifying and sinister is beginning to happen to him. And it turns out that pesky slipping sanity is the least of his concerns. Because his new neighbor is a ray-of-sunshine wildcard dipped in beauty like he's never seen, and she won't leave him alone. Worse, he can't decide if he should kill or protect her. Massimo doesn't count on Vivienne being the first person to look at him like he's human. Or demons from his past coming back to haunt him. Much less a new threat looming on the horizon. Or love. Especially not that. ♛ Deviant Prince is a slow burn, enemies to lovers, dark mafia romance. WARNING: this story gets very dark. You must check the CW in the intro. [ Book 2 in the Romano Brotherhood Series | COMPLETED ✔ ]

In a world rotting from the inside, few know its cruelty better than Alatar Kane, a man even more ruthless than the age that forged him. Most know him as "The Unforgiven," a cursed man painted in the ashes of his past, or "The Beastmonger," an apex predator that cannot be killed, reasoned with, or corrupted. All society sees is something that is more beast than man. Few know the eternal struggle he faces to keep that beast in check, not only for their sake, but for his own, and eventually, for her sake. Idris can't remember who she lost, or the blood-soaked night that shattered her life, but the nightmare remains the same: a mask with no face behind it, a power that belonged to someone else, and her destiny held in clawed hands. Her own life has never truly been her own. Pushed around by corrupt elites and toyed with by the forces of darkness, she finally gets a chance to reclaim her life after an encounter with Alatar. However when the corrupt authorities of the kingdom of Desle find and arrest Alatar, the task of protection falls into the hands of the dragonhearted protector of Desle, Kai, a moral man forced into oath under an immoral crown. His hands were already tied, but in his task of protection, Kai finds that Desle has ties running much deeper and darker than he could imagine. The destinies of Alatar and Idris were intertwined long ago, and not entirely by choice. When a plot to resurrect primordial darkness from Alatar's own bloodline is set in motion, these two broken souls must meet again to stop it, and to fix themselves. However, with dark forces manipulating every move they make, their only hope may lie in the very thing Alatar keeps under chains. The beast must be caged to save himself...but must be unleashed to save them all.
