It Girls Don't Date Corpses Book One: Guide to the Afterlife by Maeve MacMahon Jet wasn't supposed to die-total clerical error. But Death (aka Annalise, queen of black lace and bad moods) took pity, so now Jet and his hairless rat, Boaz, are official tour guides for the newly deceased. Welcome to the ether: a liminal dead zone where Forever 21 is still open, the monsters are real, and the Soul Eaters are always hungry. Usually, Jet's job is simple: find lost souls, walk them to Annalise, and clock out. But when Margot shows up-and very much on the Soul Eater's radar-Annalise hatches a new plan: use her as bait. Jet's assignment? Keep Margot smiling, grant every wish, and pretend this isn't the worst idea in afterlife history.

Felicity Randone is all kitten heels and perfect brows- a mod-era nymphet with too many secrets tucked beneath her pastel smile, and a fans-only account that knows exactly how to tease and please. But behind the camera, behind the clothes... She's fragile in that dreamy 1960s way-a sugar-sweet, mentally ill girl held together by stitches and sheer will, with a past so traumatic it still creeps up on her. Even if she thinks she is better. Felicity wants someone to love her properly. To choose her. To hold her without breaking her. But girls stitched from longing and trauma rarely get soft landings. Not until he walks into the Moulin Mug. Enter Alvarus Carmine. Immortal. Castilian. A shapeshifting Prince of Darkness who loves theatrics almost as much as he loves control. Their hookup should've been a one-shot, but it spiralled into hours of depravity, all under a consensual agreement whispered over the phone. Now he's fixated. Fascinated by her trauma. Addicted to her reactions. Determined to break her open in ways that feel like blasphemy. He pushes. She folds. He humiliates. She begs for more. Felicity knows he's dangerous. She also knows danger is the first thing that's ever made her feel alive. Little Red One a dark horror-erotic novella from her POV where consent is negotiated, boundaries are tested, and pleasure is indistinguishable from possession

I grew up safe, protected, adored, certain of the life that awaited me. A grand estate, a devoted father... a wedding to the perfect man. But the altar crumbled beneath me, my world ripped apart in a heartbeat. The silk turned to ruin, vows to ash, and in one heartbeat, everything I knew was gone. I find myself trapped in a fortress in the mountains, under the gaze of a man whose heart did not hesitate to shatter mine years ago.... Whose hands promise protection... and claim. He doesn't ask for my trust, he takes it, drags me into a world of lies, bold betrayals, and secrets I wasn't prepared to see. And the truth? I can't tell if he's my salvation... or the most delicious kind of trap I've ever known. I am Genevieve. My life was safe, my choices clear. But now, nothing is as it seems. And the man in the shadows... he is the storm I can't outrun. ⚠️ Content Disclaimer ⚠️ This work contains mature themes and potentially triggering content, including but not limited to: violence, death, emotional abuse, manipulation, trauma, sexual tension, and morally complex relationships.

At seventeen, Cassia Waxman fled Louisiana, tearing herself from her first and only love: Beau. He was Creole fire and Cajun solace-lazy porch swings, stolen sweet tea kisses, bare feet on sun-warmed wood. He showed her the raw thrill of love. And the gut-wrenching price of losing it. A decade later, Cassia's conquered the world on her terms: a skyline penthouse, her own thriving publishing empire, her name etched in gold. She achieved everything she vowed. But it's hollow without the one thing her body craves most-a baby. The desire hits her now like a tidal wave: visceral, unrelenting, impossible to ignore or delay. Then, one fateful swipe on Tinder: Beau. What begins as a charged reunion spirals into unfiltered truths-about lost time, buried regrets, and unspoken yearnings. They make a pact: No strings. No rekindled flames. Just seven scorching days to chase that shared dream-a baby, conceived in passion, without the weight of forever. But pacts like this reignite when history simmers beneath the surface. And some passions-and possibilities-refuse to be tamed once unleashed. Told in Dual POV
