A Billionaire Bakery Romance Anastasia Blake thought rock bottom was walking into her apartment and finding her fiancé screwing his assistant in their bed - in her robe, no less. One month later, she burned it all down and rose from the ashes with a rolling pin in one hand and zero patience for men in the other. Welcome to Ana's Bakehouse, Pleasantville's sweetest rebellion. She's got no family left, no regrets, and no interest in love. Her ex won't stop texting, her cupcakes sell out daily, and her best friend Lucy is the definition of unhinged. Life's good. Stable. Dry as hell. Then Camden Smith walks in. Billionaire real estate mogul. Obsessed with black coffee. Quiet, dangerous, and exuding the kind of dominance that makes Anastasia's mouth dry and thighs ache. He wants to buy the lot next door. And, clearly, her. What starts with caffeine, chaos, and a voice note that definitely wasn't meant for him, turns into something else entirely - a searing, emotional Dom/sub romance that neither of them expected... and neither can stop. Camden doesn't just want Ana in his bed - he wants to worship her. Break her walls. Build her back.

What do you do when you find out the guy you're dating's a vampire? For Peyton Jennings, the answer is obvious. After catching Henry with his teeth buried in someone's neck, all she wants is to put an end to him. The only question is how. Enter two strange men, who claim to be part of an elite organization that hunts mythical creatures. They've been tracking Henry for months, unable to get close, and Peyton could just be the key to taking him down for good. It seems like the perfect solution. But, Peyton's assistance comes with a heavy price - she wants to be a Hunter, just like them. When you throw in a shady deal with their leader, a green-eyed Hunter that's a little too charming for his own good and years-worth of training crammed into one week, it's clear that she's bitten off more than she can chew. Faced with an impossible task and the possibility that she might die, she's too stubborn to back down. After all, as they say 'when life hands you a vampire boyfriend, it's time to make better decisions'. Or something along those lines. [Featured on Wattpad's official Paranormal and Humor pages]
