[COMPLETED] [2025 Wattys Shortlist] Danny's neighbor should be illegal. There's no way someone should be that attractive. They've lived next door to each other for over a year. As a skinny, clumsy, sweater-loving, Modern Poetry professor, Danny never believed someone like him could catch the eye of someone as perfect as Brett. But when Danny (accidentally) RSVPs to a destination wedding he never wanted to attend, he realizes he's in a bind-he needs a plus-one. And somehow, Brett becomes his unexpected solution. Brett's MMA career was on the brink of greatness until an injury stopped him cold. Now, trying to reclaim his spot in the octagon and live up to heavy expectations, the last thing Brett expected was to build a friendship with the neighbor he's been crushing on. However, Danny is undeniably gorgeous and way out of his league, so he needs to maintain realistic expectations. But, when Danny needs a date for a destination wedding, Brett's first instinct is to offer his help. Being his fake boyfriend would not be a hardship. A romantic beach, a fake relationship, and one bed... what could go wrong?

Becoming the most famous exorcist and a phenomenal celebrity was never in Leon's plan. He joined the reality show Exorcism Live only to inform the public of all the misconceptions about demons and exorcism, and to raise awareness about the alarmingly increasing incidents of demonic possession all around the world. He did not expect to be crowned as the "most attractive man of the year" and the "hottest priest in the world" once the show went viral. And he certainly didn't anticipate that Satan himself would become his biggest fan. Leon: 27 years old Azazil (Satan, Angel Lockwood): millions of years old (but appears to be 21 years old) Disclaimer: The exorcism rituals, traditions, and the Catholic Church in this novel are fictional and do not reflect or represent reality. Please treat the world setting in this story as a parallel/alternative universe. ********* Updates every Wednesday and Saturday at 9 am Pacific Time. Happy ending eventually.
