Asia-Naye here, I was the best in the game-slick, untouchable, and raking in cash from sweet-talking rich men over the phone and when it calls for, in person. Then one slip-up put me on the FBI's radar. Now I have a problem: work with them or kiss my freedom goodbye. Their terms? Pretend that I'm engaged to their top agent, Special Agent Kuran Minks, while he tries to protect me, I try to keep myself out of trouble. But by the looks of it, I bet he'll write me letters when I'm in prison. (From Minks, With Love) written by Dainiel Douglas/Prezii/Theebookgirly

W H I T E O U T ❅ The contract was simple: Two weeks. Two hundred grand. Don't fall in love. For 𝑱𝒐𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒆 𝑩𝒂𝒑𝒕𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒆, it's a desperate bid to survive her debt. For 𝑯𝒂𝒅𝒓𝒊𝒂𝒏 𝑺𝒊𝒏𝒄𝒍𝒂𝒊𝒓, the cold heir to a billion-dollar empire, it's just business. Play the adoring girlfriend for his family's winter retreat, take the money, and leave. Then a blizzard hits. Stranded entirely alone in a remote mountain estate, the icy boundaries between them melt into a bruising, suffocating heat. But when the snow clears and the contract expires, Joelle quickly learns a terrifying truth: Hadrian Sinclair doesn't let go of what's his. The phone lines are cut. The snowplow is sabotaged. The doors are locked. The blizzard is over, but Joelle's nightmare is just beginning. Because the only thing more dangerous than a man with a frozen heart, is the monster that wakes up when it thaws. ❅ "The contract has expired, Hadrian. The roads are clear. Let me go." His pale eyes dropped to my lips, his thumb tracing the pulse racing at my throat. "What roads, Joelle? It's still snowing. We're snowed in. We'll be snowed in forever."

Imani took the job for one reason. Money. Her father's gambling debts are swallowing everything her family owns, and the only job willing to pay enough to save their home happens to be inside the mansion of the most dangerous man in the city-a Russian Bratva king whose name is spoken in whispers. So Imani follows three simple rules. Keep her head down. Do her job. And never look the men of the house in the eyes. For months, it has worked. Until the day she is sent to clean the forbidden top floor. A careless mistake. A drunk mafia soldier. One gunshot that echoes through the study. The man who crossed the line drops dead behind her. And when Imani finally looks up... she meets the cold gaze of the man who pulled the trigger. Roman Volkov. The master of the mansion. The most feared man in the Russian Bratva. A man who notices everything. Except this time, he isn't looking at the body on the floor. He's watching her. Imani wants nothing more than to remain invisible, collect her paycheck, and keep her family from losing their home. But Roman Volkov has just found the only woman in his house who doesn't fear him enough. And once the Bratva king decides he wants something... Walking away is no longer an option

𝐄𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐚 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐥 is an innocent, kind, and unshakable girl that is...until 𝐊𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐰𝐨𝐨𝐝; the Star quarterback, he's untouchable, mysterious and the guy she's tutoring that decides he wants her. He watches, waits, and tests her boundaries. Desire turns dangerous, and obsession doesn't play fair between these two.

-Demon Series: Book 1- Aden Perri has problems. The last day of school his girlfriend calls it quits. And proceeds to move on a little too quickly. His friends disappear, leaving him to spend the summer alone. His mother buys a dog. Aden hates dogs. The scar on his leg confirms it. And his new job titles are garbage collector and toilet scrubber. At least he'll be out in nature, excepted he hates the outdoors.

They drag him out and drive him to Beaver Lake. His father loads him with a bucket and a mop and sends him off to clean campground toilets. The local campers just laugh at the poor garbage boy wandered around picking up after them. All but one. One very strange, shirtless, barefoot boy who Aden will never understand. But the boy makes it bearable, so he'll let him stick around. It's not like Titus is really going to give Aden a choice anyways.

I walked into that villa thinking I knew exactly what I wanted. He barely looked at me. His best friend? He looked a little too long. Now I'm stuck between the boy I wanted, and the boy who actually wants me. And they're best friends. So yeah... I'm kind of the problem. Welcome to Love Island. Or as I like to call it: heartbreak in a bikini.

They didn't win the prize money. But they walked away with something far more dangerous: a real relationship in a fake reality world. Olandria thought the hardest part was surviving the villa. Turns out, it was surviving the spotlight. Now that the cameras are gone, the hate is louder, the headlines are messier, and the love? It's tested every single day. He's the white boy the internet swears would never choose a girl like her. She's the Black woman fighting to exist without defending her worth. But what they have isn't up for debate. Not after the way he protects her. Not after the way she opens up only for him. Not after all the podcasts, fan edits, betrayals, and backlash. This isn't a fairytale. This is fame, love, racism, and real loyalty wrapped in one messy, passionate, slow-burning storm. And through it all - it's still him. It's still her. Still You.

After the cameras stopped rolling, the real story began. Nic and Olandria didn't win the show-but they found something deeper: a spark that couldn't be edited out. Now, reunited outside the villa, the two fan-favorites are finally exploring what the world kept hinting at... if they're brave enough to choose each other. But not everyone is rooting for their happiness. As old flames stir online drama and unexpected truths from the past come to light, Nic and Olandria must navigate public pressure, personal insecurities, and what it really means to love beyond the spotlight. Told over six steamy, heartfelt chapters-with appearances by real-life besties Ace & Chelley-this story dives into vulnerability, healing, and the kind of love that finds you when you're finally ready.

Olyverra Carter is a frustrated journalist who's spent five years working and stuck behind the scenes, never given her own byline. So when her sharp, calculating boss Whitney finally offers her a story-her first solo feature-she thinks her big break has finally come. The catch? The story is about Nikola Vaughn, a mysterious, up-and-coming NASCAR driver with a reputation built on silence. He's never given an interview, he's barely present online, and he completely disappeared from the racing scene after turning 18-only to suddenly reappear seven years later with his eyes set on the NASCAR Cup Series. Bound by a strict NDA and forced to submit her article for legal review, Olyverra quickly realizes this is no ordinary puff piece. With no real information to go on, no photos, and no access-she's flying blind. That is, until Nikola himself calls and suggests a week-long shadowing experience, offering her the chance to step into his world firsthand. As she prepares to enter the high-octane world of racing, Olyverra finds herself battling not just deadlines and expectations-but a deepening curiosity about Nikola's hidden past, and an unexpected tension between them that could either derail everything... or launch her career into the stratosphere. But what happens when they spend an intense night together that leaves them bound to each other for life? Will Nikola ever open up? Will he step-up where he's needed or continue to live his fast life, leaving Olyverra with the responsibility all on her own.
