One moment I was just me... and the next I was in a world that shouldn't exist. Velmora. A place where blood runs like currency, rogues hunt in the dark, and a vampire princess keeps saving my life like I matter. She says I don't belong here. She says I'm human. A mistake. An anomaly that shouldn't exist. But the way she looks at me says something else entirely. I should run. I should hate her. I should never trust her. Because now I'm being chased, hunted, and protected by forces I don't understand... all while standing too close to a princess who looks at me like I'm either a problem... or a secret she refuses to name. She says I should fear her world. But I think her world should fear me... because I'm not supposed to exist here. And neither is what's happening between us. But in a kingdom where humans shouldn't exist... I might just be the one thing she can't let go of. This story is intended for mature readers (18+). It includes explicit intimate content and graphic violence. Please read with discretion. P.S. If you enjoy it, feel free to share your thoughts as you go-I genuinely appreciate your feedback 🧡

For six years, Lorraine Delacour has been a ghost. Fleeing a ruthless organized crime family and a forced marriage designed to expand their empire, she has survived by constantly moving, changing her name, and never looking back. Now going by the name Dayna Thompson, she is exhausted, starving, and running out of places to hide. ​When she collapses from sheer exhaustion inside a local diner in the rain-drenched college town of Oakhaven, she wakes up looking into the eyes of an angel. ​Audrey Miller is a brilliant, elegant Art History professor, married to Tony, the genuinely kind-hearted diner owner who takes pity on the mysterious "Dayna." Without hesitation, Tony offers her a job and the spare room in their house. From the outside, Tony and Audrey's life is picture-perfect-a stable, loving marriage and a beautiful home that offers the ultimate sanctuary. ​To Lorraine, it's the perfect cover. But living under the same roof as Audrey proves to be its own kind of danger. Audrey is the first person in years to truly see her, noticing the sharp intellect and deep knowledge of art that Lorraine desperately tries to hide. As Audrey takes her under her wing to help her secure a college scholarship, the boundaries between them begin to blur. ​A slow-burn, forbidden romance ignites in the quiet moments of the Miller house. But falling for the wife of the man who saved her is a betrayal Lorraine can barely stomach, and her past is always hunting her. Falling in love means stepping out of the shadows, and being found could cost Lorraine her life-and destroy the perfect family that took her in. ​Sometimes, the most dangerous thing you can do is stop running.

Margot Veil doesn't do chaos. Ten years. Three Grammy nominations. One ex-husband who left her for a 25-year-old pop star and somehow made it her scandal. She's fine. She's been fine for two years. She has the press junkets to prove it. Zoe Parish doesn't do apologies. She dated the wrong man. She ended it. The internet decided the rest. She's over it. She's been over it since before it was even over. When their label forces them into a studio together - six weeks, one song, smile for the cameras - they agree on exactly one thing: This is the worst idea anyone has ever had. Margot is thirty-eight and has spent two years rebuilding herself into something untouchable. Zoe is twenty-eight and has spent two years pretending she doesn't care what anyone thinks. They have nothing in common. Except the same ex. The same industry. The same hollow feeling when they listen back to their own music. And, apparently - the same voice, when they're not trying to kill each other. Some frequencies you can't unhear. Some harmonies find you whether you want them to or not. overtones | enemies to lovers | age gap | f/f | music industry | slow burn

If you ask Emory Rose, she'll tell you she has the best job in the world. She's a chef-doing what she loves most-on the set of the hit TV drama Med on You, filmed at Starfire Studios. The show follows Dr. Morgan Fox, a brilliant cardiologist with a complicated love life. But for Emory, it's not the storylines that make work exciting-it's the lead actress. Emory has had a quiet crush for years on Natalie Stone, the stunning star who plays Morgan. The only problem? Natalie doesn't even know she exists oh, and she's married to Alin Romano, one of the show's producers, and they have a ten-year-old daughter, Ashly. But behind the scenes, Natalie is far from happy in her marriage. Emory, knowing she'll probably never be more than a background extra in Natalie's world, has spent the last five years learning everything about her-including exactly what she likes to eat. Her secret mission? To brighten Natalie's day with thoughtfully crafted dishes, hoping to lift her spirits, even if only for a moment. Will Natalie ever truly see her? And if so, could the way to her heart be through her stomach? There's only one way to find out.

Two heartbeats changed her life. One gave her a child. The other gave her a forbidden love. ​At twenty-four, Emma Collins thought her future was perfectly mapped out. Pregnant and ready to start a family with her boyfriend, Liam, she believed she had everything under control. But the looming reality of parenthood only exposes the deep fractures in their relationship. When Emma catches Liam cheating, she uncovers a bitter truth: he is a coward, too weak to admit he isn't ready to be a father, yet too afraid to leave first. Left alone, vulnerable, and terrified of the unknown, Emma's world completely shatters. ​Dr. Alexandra Vogel is everything Emma is not. At thirty-five, she is a brilliant, clinical, and fiercely professional OB/GYN whose life is governed by strict rules and medical protocols. Alex has spent years building high walls to protect the career she sacrificed everything for. To her, patients are responsibilities-never personal connections. ​But when Emma walks into her clinic heartbroken and utterly undone, Alex's carefully constructed defenses begin to fail. A single, small deviation from protocol to comfort a crying patient sparks a deep, undeniable connection that neither of them saw coming. ​While Emma finds a desperately needed anchor in Alex, Alex finds herself fighting the battle of her life. She must resist the growing intimacy with everything she has, because crossing that line doesn't just break the rules-it threatens to destroy her medical license and everything she's ever built. ​In the tense, emotionally charged space between white coats and ultrasound monitors, the harder Alex tries to push away, the louder their hearts beat.
