Edmund Westworth (26), the third Earl of Beaumont, and the most eligible bachelor in London, unknowingly started a tradition he now regrets. At age twenty-two he danced the first dance at the season opening ball at Almack's with a young lady who became the toast of the season. The next year he did the same. Every year since, he has danced one dance, to fulfill his mother's requirement. And every year his dance partner becomes the most sought after girl of the season. Some think he has a gift, Edmund thinks he could pick any girl and 'the ton' would deem her desirable based on his dance alone. His friends disagree and bet him 100£ to choose a dance partner who couldn't possibly entice the gentlemen of London. When her father suddenly passes away, Elizabeth Cavendish (20) has to move in with her aunt's family. With the estate entailed, Elizabeth needs to find a husband quickly or her aunt will install her into a governess or lady's companion position, which would severely hinder Beth's ability to work on her scientific experiments. Garbed in her cousin's horrific dresses from last season, she only has a few weeks to find a husband before she is doomed to tedious work for the rest of her life. She finds an unlikely accomplice in the Earl of Beaumont. Please don't copy any part of my story in any form (including Youtube) without my permission.

[Complete] 🔥Rated R for mature sexual content and graphic language 📚For fans of You've Got Mail (and underwear kinks) OR as one reader put it: "A yuletide story of what happens when his package gets shoved in her box by mistake." *** Zoey Franklin's post-college life is a mess. She's jobless, newly single, stuck living with meddling parents, and forced to hang out with her parents' friends, the Londers (AKA complete strangers), for Christmas. The only thing maintaining her sanity? A flirty, banter-filled text exchange with a mystery man, sparked by a package mix-up. Tristan Londer is finally going home for Christmas for the first time in forever. While he hoped for some much-needed quality time with his family, instead he gets a house full of strangers taking over his space. Especially that one stranger--the one with the voice, and the eyes, and the sass, who's claimed his bedroom as hers for the trip. Even though Zoey Franklin is the most beautiful woman he's ever seen, he can't stand the entitled princess. Good thing he has his mystery woman to text with late at night. If there's anyone who can turn his mood around, it's her. *** Cover co-designed by @LNRoberts1 and myself

Rebecca Snyder doesn't do drama-at least, not intentionally. She's too busy running her cozy little bakery in Charleston, trying to keep her emotions in check and her walls sky-high. But when her business gets tangled in a local culinary competition, she comes face-to-face with Charlie Woods-the arrogant, gorgeous, emotionally unavailable restaurant owner who's infuriatingly good at pushing her buttons. Charlie has his own demons. Haunted by his complicated family history and driven by his relentless ambition, he's not looking for distractions-especially not ones that come with flour on their apron and fire in their eyes. But something about Rebecca gets under his skin... and stays there. What starts as a rivalry explodes into stolen glances, bold dares, and late-night confrontations that blur every line between hate and want. As they navigate workplace wars, personal tragedies, and a series of emotionally charged, undeniably steamy moments, Rebecca and Charlie are forced to confront the truth: maybe the person you can't stand is exactly the one your heart needs. But falling in love is never simple. When secrets from the past resurface, a near-tragedy shakes their world, and difficult choices threaten everything they've built, Rebecca and Charlie must decide-are they just enemies with chemistry, or soulmates who took the long way home? Hate You With My Heart is a raw, laugh-out-loud, gut-punchingly honest love story about passion, pain, healing, and the complicated beauty of finding "the one" in the last place you'd ever expect. Perfect for fans of slow burns, sarcastic banter, angsty longing, and characters who feel a little too real-this is not just a love story. It's a battle, a journey, and a promise. 📣 1K Views --- September 23, 2025 📣 2K Views --- September 28, 2025 📣 3K Views --- October 06, 2025

[2025 Wattys Shortlist] After getting cut off by her wealthy, business-obsessed parents, Emily Grayson finds herself broke, stranded in a small town, and working at a boba café, something she never imagined in her wildest dreams. Her first days on the job are a disaster, her patience (and Jake Sherlind's) running thinner than the tapioca pearls she keeps burning. Jake, the charming yet hardworking guy with big dreams, has no patience for entitled rich girls who don't know how to hold a job. But when Emily starts proving him wrong, their tension brews into something neither of them expected. Between spilled drinks, late-night confessions, and an orange stray cat that won't leave the back door, Emily begins to wonder... maybe losing everything was exactly what she needed to find herself. A small-town rom-com about growth, second chances, and love that's better steeped with time.
