I was supposed to be on a chill RV camping trip with my boyfriend's family. Key words: supposed to. I hated him, I hated them, and the only thing keeping me sane was sneaking off at night to take pictures of the forest. But one night... I wandered too far. Now I'm being held captive by something straight out of a fever dream-a 7-foot tall lycan beast who doesn't shift, doesn't speak, and definitely doesn't care about my personal space. Oh, and apparently? I'm his mate. Cute. I've tried escaping-multiple times. He always catches me. Throws me over his shoulder like it's just another Tuesday. I curse him out, he grunts. I run, he drags me back. I'm not falling for him. I don't care how protective, possessive, or weirdly gentle he is when he thinks I'm asleep. I just want out... right?

After escaping a toxic relationship, 24-year-old Elena Morales moves into a rundown apartment with her four-year-old son, determined to rebuild their lives from nothing. Love is the last thing on her mind. Especially when the man living next door looks like trouble wrapped in tattoos and silence. Luca Bennett is the kind of man people avoid - cold, guarded, and impossible to read. But while everyone else keeps their distance, Elena's son Noah becomes attached to him instantly. What starts as shared dinners, repaired toys, and late-night conversations slowly turns into something Elena never expected: safety. But just as she begins to trust Luca with her heart, the past she ran from comes crashing back into her life. And this time, she might lose more than just herself. A slow-burn single parent romance full of tension, healing, found family, and the kind of love that feels like home.

And Joel is no better predicament seeing as how his family has already chosen his wife and mapped out his life.

Will the piling bodies, the familial disputes, or the blatant inevitability be the death of them? Or they can change this age old Shakespearean catastrophe before it takes both of their lives?

Aniya thought marriage meant partnership, love, and maybe the occasional argument about Netflix passwords. What she didn't plan for was Farrah - Spencer's charming, passive-aggressive "work wife" who somehow made "emotional cheating" look like part of the job description. At first, it was small stuff: snarky comments about Aniya's yoga career, a suspicious number of office selfies, and a mysteriously missing anniversary mug. But when Farrah starts hashtagging Spencer as her "WorkHubby" and scheduling dinners on their actual anniversary, Aniya realizes she's not imagining it-this woman is trying to steal her man, one team meeting at a time. Now Aniya has two options: 1. Let Farrah run the show while Spencer plays the clueless nice guy. 2. Or remind everyone - including her husband - exactly who's married to him. Told with sharp humor, brutal honesty, and enough chaos to fill an HR report, Delete Her Number, Spencer is a modern love story about marriage in the social media era - where loyalty is tested, egos are fragile, and no one is safe from a "work bestie" with boundary issues.
