COMPLETED ✔ "Damn she's thick." We both hear. I move to step over towards him. Eureka holds my arm drawing my attention back on her. She gets on her tippy toes. I brace forwards to cut the gap between us. Eureka holds around my neck putting her face to my ear. That's when I hear her whisper. "There's no need for you to get upset. He can only look, and not touch because I'm yours." I stiffen in my jeans. Getting aroused from her boldness. But I take it one step further. Gripping her neck. Detka holds my arm tighter. Lighty moans where only I can hear. I stand up straighter holding her against me by her neck. Looking at the cashier who is still watching her. I cough getting his attention. "Uhmm. Thank you but our groceries won't ring up themselves." He looks at me now. I smirk at him, taking Eureka's hand. "Also it's not nice to stare at what isn't yours." Eureka squeezes my hand. "Behave." She mutters. I ignore her and finish unpacking what's left. What folks are commenting "I love the story it's different from other stories I read.

A reimagining of LM Kaplin's book, Mine. When Trisha moved to Strawberry Way with her husband, Chris, it was with the intention of finally starting their family together. It was a beautiful house, an idyllic neighborhood. The kind where everybody knows your name and gossip about each other is a staple. The pregnancy soon followed. She had no idea that the pregnancy would trigger her husband's abusive side. A side that denies he even fathered her child. A side that put her in a survival mode that she never knew she'd have to live in because of her husband. And then there was Carter. She damn sure didn't expect the weird, yet sexy, neighbor to start having eyes for her. Treating her better than her husband does. Imagine how she felt when said sexy neighbor decided that he would no longer sit around and listen to her abuse. Deciding to let the streets of Strawberry Way run red with blood to have her.

Cali and Chance have been best friends since the sandbox. She was always the bookworm, introverted friend that calmed his extroverted, charming ways. Cali's love for Chance bloomed from that friendship into romantic interest, even though she knows that he will never settle down and has never so much as had a girlfriend. She is sure that Chance is the one, she just cant seem to get him to see that. Especially when he suddenly decides to stop being a play boy and settles down with her roommate. Chance has loved Cali since before she even agreed to be his friend. She is his home, his safe place. The one that has accepted and protected him no matter what. When he starts to see her outside of their normal stomping grounds, and notices other guys noticing her, he starts to feel more than that old male friend guardian jealousy. He starts to want more from her than their normal hugs and banter. And that upsets him. He cant risk losing Cali just because he cant keep dirty thoughts of her out of his head. Can she get him to see her? Can he stop watching her? And when it's all said and done, will they still be Best Friends?

Journey never planned on falling in love, and Emilio never planned on slowing down. What begins as quiet coffee visits turns into something deeper. Intentional. Devastatingly real. For the Long Way is a slow-burn romance about choosing each other, building a life between two worlds, and learning that the most powerful love is the one that waits, stays, and commits fully.

When burnout leaves high-powered attorney Naomi Ellis with nothing but exhaustion and silence, she escapes to a remote mountain cabin-the kind of place where no one can find her. She's craving solitude, healing, and maybe a little peace. But there's one problem. The cabin isn't empty. Caleb Walker, a gruff construction worker with no patience for city types, has been living there while he rebuilds his life after a loss of his own. He's all rough edges, flannel, and quiet storms-and he has no intention of sharing his space. Forced to live under the same roof, Naomi and Caleb clash over everything-until the snow deepens, tempers thaw, and something unspoken starts to grow in the silence between them. What begins as a reluctant truce turns into late-night confessions, stolen glances, and a connection neither of them saw coming. But as the snow melts and the world creeps back in, Naomi will have to decide whether to return to the life she left behind-or stay with the man who showed her what home could really mean. A slow-burn, small-town, forced-proximity romance about healing, surrender, and love that feels like breathing.

Amina wants a baby-on her terms. No romance. No strings. No father involvement. But instead of going the clinical route, she picks the one man she despises: Lukas. Why? Because his genetics are perfect. His record is perfect. His health is perfect. His brilliance is undeniable. And he has a type of raw dominance that she thinks would produce a strong child. So she sets a formal business meeting. Slides a contract across his marble desk. States her intentions with no emotion. He laughs first. Then he reads the contract. Then he looks at her-really looks at her-and says: "If you want my child, Amina... you're not getting it in a cup. You're getting it the natural way." She refuses. He smirks. But Lukas has waited years for this door to open. And he knows exactly how to bend her resolve. Eventually, she agrees-strict rules, boundaries, a timeline, and an exit clause. She believes she can keep her heart out of it. But she has just stepped into his game. And Lukas? Lukas doesn't intend to give her just a child. He intends to have her. Completely.
