Sam needed a wife. I needed a stable for my horses. We agreed to a marriage of convenience, but it seemed to be more. For a while. Until my distant cousin, who was Sam's ex, showed up on our doorstep. And I was no longer convenient.

Sabrina Reed is Nathan Alden's wife, but not by his choice... EXCERPT****** "I found her like this, sir," the guard announced. Sabrina stirred at the voice, blinking groggily and rubbing her eyes to chase away the blur clouding her vision. A towering figure stepped into focus. "What are you doing out here, Sabrina?" Nathan's voice was sharp, cutting through the fog of sleep. His jaw was tight, words pressed between clenched teeth. She blinked again, brushing hair from her face as she sat up. "What are you doing out here?" he repeated-louder this time, more demanding. He stood before her in a jet-black suit and white button-up shirt, sleeves rolled just enough to expose forearms clenched across his chest. His eyebrows were drawn tight, his eyes narrowed. "I came back late last night and... the guard was gone, so... I just fell asleep," she said softly, eyes lowering under the weight of his glare. He dismissed the guard with a silent nod, then stepped closer. "Where were you last night?" he asked, voice taut with suspicion. She yawned, trying to blink herself fully awake. "I've been volunteering at the animal shelter." "Get up," he ordered, tone clipped and harsh. "You expect me to believe that? Don't animal shelters close at a decent time?" She remained seated, her legs too stiff to move. "Yes, but-" "Get up!" he barked.

King Aedric Veyne built his throne on the ashes of witches. After magic killed his brother, he swore to wipe it from the world. Princess Maria of Sareen is sent north to marry him as a political sacrifice. Her duty is simple: secure his army, save her dying kingdom, and survive a husband known as the Iron Wolf. There is only one problem. She is the very thing he hunts. A Sunfire witch. If her secret is discovered, her wedding will become her execution. But the frozen king she feared is not the monster she expected... and the shadow bound to her magic would burn kingdoms to keep her alive. In a land where magic means death and mercy is treason, Maria must decide who she betrays first: her husband, her protector... or herself. Dark fantasy. Political tension. Forbidden power. Slow-burn danger. Enemies to lovers.

Yoon Yeonhwa gave him everything. Her loyalty, her body, her heart. She waited through war-torn nights and bitter winters, turned his empty residence into a home, and gave birth to his child alone. She clung to the promise that when he returned, she would be his wife. But when General Jang Jinyul came back, it wasn't her he held. It was Princess Seo Yuna who was the emperor's beloved daughter, wed to him as a reward for victory. Without a word, without remorse, Yeonhwa was cast aside. Once cherished, she was now only a concubine in the very house that had been hers in everything but name. They call her favored, but Yeonhwa knows better. She is a shadow, discarded along with the son she hides from him. And when the princess conceives the general's first "true" heir, Yeonhwa understood that her time of waiting, of hoping, is over. She chooses silence over sorrow, dignity over despair. And with little Yoon Gaon in her arms, she walks away leaving behind the man who once promised her everything.

Vanya is the bubbly, loud, sunshine girl of the school - the one who makes everyone laugh, who hides her pain behind jokes, who always shows up for others... but is never truly seen. Except by her heart. Kabir. Her best friend. Her daily chaos. The boy she loved with a heart too full and a voice too quiet to ever tell him. But he loved someone else. And Vanya? She smiled through it all - even when it shattered her. Told across five raw, poetic, soul-tugging chapters, One Last Glance is the story of one-sided love, silent heartbreak, and the strength it takes to walk away without being held back.

For every love story that ended without ever beginning. --- If you've ever smiled while your heart broke-this story is yours....💌🌷 --- Note from the Author: This is a work of fiction, born purely from my imagination.

"She's the fuse," Rowan muttered. "And we're all gonna burn." _____ Sadie Quinn didn't plan on ending up in a nowhere town like Deadwater, Texas. But running doesn't always come with options, just a half-charged phone, a bag over her shoulder, and a past she'd rather not look back at. She came for the job. A quiet cabin. A paycheck. A chance to feel like herself again. What she found were four men. Rhett, the cold, commanding boss with eyes like judgment and a voice like gravel. Colt, all sharp edges and low threats, the one who doesn't believe in giving space. Rowan, charming and reckless, always smiling like he knows what she's thinking. And Levi, the quiet one. Unreadable, intense... and the first to truly see her. They're not just cowboys. Not just ranchers. There's something darker behind those stares. Something dangerous under the surface of Hollow Creek. Sadie doesn't trust easily. But every day on that ranch pulls her in deeper. Toward secrets, toward heat, toward the kind of want that can burn everything down. She came here to escape. She might've just found the thing that finally undoes her. _____ Updating frequently

"No-please-don't do this!" Seraphina sobbed, her voice cracking as she clung to her eldest brother's wrist. "I-I'll be good. I'll do whatever you say, just don't-" A sharp crack echoed through the room as his palm struck her cheek, sending her crashing to the marble floor. Pain exploded across her skin, but it was nothing compared to the terror clawing at her chest. From above, his voice was cold. Unmoved. "You will marry him." She shook her head wildly, crawling backward until her spine hit the wall. "He's a monster," she whispered, her breath shuddering. "He's not human. Please, don't make me do this. I'll die." Her second brother crouched in front of her, grabbing her chin roughly, forcing her to look at him. His lips curled, eyes void of warmth. "Then die." Her breath hitched. "But you will die as his wife." The door behind them creaked open. Heavy footsteps. Her father stepped inside, his expression unreadable. "Lock her in this room," he ordered. "She will not step out until her wedding day." Sera thrashed as hands seized her, dragging her toward the massive iron doors. "No! Please-Father, please!" But he didn't even look at her. The last thing she saw before the door slammed shut was her brothers standing side by side, indifferent as she was thrown into a fate worse than death. Then darkness. And the only thing left was the suffocating truth. She was a sacrifice. A bride to the Sinister, a devil himself. #A STANDALONE BOOK

Sarj's long-awaited story. And Kade's. A new guy. And her. The Tremontaine Coven of Boston, Massachusetts is of old arcane lineage, and Lys is the last remaining witch of the ancient bloodline. Unfortunately for the young witch, she's a powerless freak, useless except for bleeding what little magic she has from her blood. Death doesn't come easy for her, and worse is the betrayal from Isaac, her betrothed. The sad tale is only a memory to Lys. Reborn, magicked, ensorcelled, tricked... she's not entirely sure why she has the memories of another life. She's not sure if it's real, or if she's certifiably insane. She's not sure if she's Alsye Tremontaine, reincarnated, or someone... something... else. The only certainty is Lys is no one's victim. Someone ought to warn the men hunting her.
