Devora Zoresi I hated college. Well, almost everything about it anyway. The only thing I was actually looking forward to was meeting my new roommate. Cause I love meeting new people. But that excitement didn't last very long. Because my new roommate is River Blackwood. Unapologetic. Destructive. Infuriating. Controlled. Hot in a way I would rather die than admit. My personal nightmare sent directly from hell. And somehow, I have to figure out how to live with her without losing my mind. Because somewhere along the line, I start wondering do I actually hate River... Or am I becoming psychotically obsessed with her. River Blackwood I had made one thing very clear. I did not want a roommate. Not now. Not ever. So imagine my surprise finding one in my room. Devora Zoresi. Stubborn. Bitchy. Annoying. Every single thing I hated. And, unfortunately, far more striking than I cared to admit. She looks at me with absolutely no fear in her eyes. That was the first thing I hated about her. The second was how easily she got under my skin. She provoked me. Constantly. Always pushing, always testing the limits of control I'd spent years perfecting. And I absolutely hated it. I hated that Devora could make me lose my patience with barely any effort at all. Sometimes I wondered if I really hated her or if I was becoming dangerously obsessed with her.

𝐋𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐇 ♡ 𝐕𝐄𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐑 makes a living telling people what their futures have in store. It's ironic, considering how carefully she's spent the last seven years avoiding her own past. After walking away from her father's hotel and the life that came with it, she builds a quieter existence in a small tarot shop in Las Vegas, reading strangers, interpreting their fears, and giving them answers she doesn't always believe herself. 𝐀𝐙𝐀𝐑 ♤ 𝐊𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐄𝐌, the woman behind a private-event empire, walks through her door. Controlled, intelligent, and impossible to read, Azar is nothing like the clients Lilith is used to. She arrives with questions Lilith can't answer, and a tarot reading that refuses to go the way it should. What begins as an unsettling encounter soon pulls Lilith into a world of private businesses, corporate deals, suspicious investments, powerful families, and secrets that seem strangely connected to the life she thought she had left behind. The deeper she gets, the more everything she thought she knew begins to fracture. People aren't always who they claim to be, memories don't always tell the whole story, and the truth has a way of hiding in plain sight. Worst of all, Lilith can't shake the feeling that her encounter with Azar was never accidental. ♧ ᴀꜰᴛᴇʀ ʏᴇᴀʀꜱ ᴏꜰ ʀᴇᴀᴅɪɴɢ ᴇᴠᴇʀʏᴏɴᴇ ᴇʟꜱᴇ'ꜱ ꜰᴜᴛᴜʀᴇ, ʟɪʟɪᴛʜ ɪꜱ ᴀʙᴏᴜᴛ ᴛᴏ ᴅɪꜱᴄᴏᴠᴇʀ ʜᴏᴡ ᴛᴇʀʀɪꜰʏɪɴɢ ɪᴛ ɪꜱ ᴡʜᴇɴ ꜱᴏᴍᴇᴏɴᴇ ᴇʟꜱᴇ ꜱᴇᴇᴍꜱ ᴛᴏ ᴀʟʀᴇᴀᴅʏ ᴋɴᴏᴡ ʜᴇʀꜱ ♧ 🂲 🃍 🂶

Trying to stay focused on the question I just asked her like I wasn't about to combust from her just looking at me. "You mean the world to me sweetheart."

'Solitude' Philosopher Philip Koch defined it as "A stretch of experience disengaged from other people in perception, thought, emotion, and action" Solitude is an experience that can exist regardless of physical location, defined by the "absence" of other people, internally otherlessness, a spiritual/philosophical concept regarding the dissolution of self and a literary/existential term for extreme isolation. At forty-five, Professor Loredana Dove has built her life on control. Keeping her colleagues at arm's length and her students at a distance. At home, her marriage to an absent, quarrelsome wife is crumbling, leaving her to raise their five year old daughter in quiet isolation. She has convinced herself she needs nothing more until Romina Maple crashes into her classroom. Nineteen smart, and reckless, Romina is the youngest in her year. To her classmates she's the loud, infuriating party girl; to herself, she's struggling with mental health, taking care of her three year old brother and the only responsible adult in a house run by aging grandparents, her defiance masks hunger, her insolence disguises fear. Their lives should never touch. Yet hunger recognizes hunger. What begins as irritation morphs into fascination, into a closeness neither woman knows how to resist. Boundaries blur. Rules splinter. And both must face the truth: some desires do not starve quietly, and some silences can undo a lifetime of control. Our Shared Solitude is a story of two women who should have walked away yet found themselves consumed by the one thing they were never meant to want.

Ivy Williams didn't come to Heartfelt University for drama. She came to pass her classes, chain-smoke her way through the stress, and stay out of trouble. Then she met Professor Sinclair. Cold, condescending, and infuriatingly attractive, Sinclair seems to have made it her mission to ruin Ivy's life one lecture at a time. But Ivy gives as good as she gets-and the more they clash, the more the tension starts to twist into something else. Something neither of them is ready for but both of them want far too badly. Sharp words turn into slow glances. Power plays turn personal. And soon, the only thing more dangerous than their rivalry... is what might happen if it stops. [wlw]

Have you ever felt something for a person you shouldn't feel? Sunny knows the feeling too well, she got a new teacher in literature class. Miss Austin is stern, demanding and playful but she hides something that will shock everyone.

These women thought their paths would never align. Romy Vanelle never dreamed of working in a run-down pizza shop. The prestigious cooking academy La Cherief is supposed to be her escape. Little does she know that the gorgeous disaster who once ordered a pineapple pizza with garlic buns will soon become the person she fears most: Arabella Renette, world-famous chef-and Romy's strict, perfection-obsessed instructor, who mysteriously stopped cooking years ago. Keeping the elite scholarship that keeps her afloat won't be her only challenge. She'll also have to survive the dangerously attractive chef who watches her every move. Romy likes to taste the danger. And she soon realizes she'll have to take everything with... A Grain of Salt.

Michelle was nineteen when she first fell for a stranger's mind on the page - Julian Ade, a novelist whose sentences felt like company she didn't know she needed. She spent a decade admiring him from a distance before she ever heard his voice. When they finally meet at a small literary festival, he's fifty-four, unhurried, and nothing like the myth she'd built. What follows isn't the romance she expected. It's slower, stranger, and far more honest: he teaches her that no one else's clarity can substitute for her own, and she spends the better part of a year learning to trust her own voice instead of borrowing his. What grows between them afterward defies the shapes love is supposed to take. Neither needs the other to be whole. Neither wants a label. Instead they build something out of shared pages, kept secrets, and the kind of silence that says more than conversation ever could - a love built not on chemistry or convention, but on the rare, electric pleasure of being fully known by someone whose mind you love and who loves yours back. A novella about self-love as the prerequisite for real love, and about a devotion so unhurried it never needed a name.
