If there was one thing Jasmine Kalu wished was easier, it would be believing in herself and chasing her dream. And if Liam Ashford were to be in the picture, eliminating him from her life forever would be part of the deal. *** Jasmine had finally landed a steady job after convincing herself that it was worth putting her dream on hold for a nine-to-five. After all, a paycheck gets the bills paid. But her excitement quickly faded away when she discovered that the company's owner was none other than her brother's best friend, and her long-time nemesis, Liam Ashford. She hadn't seen Liam in like ten years, but it took no time to realize he was not just as cocky as ever, Liam was hotter, sharper, and dead set on making her life miserable. Liam Ashford was the charming, hot, and 'everyone likes him' type of guy, but to Jasmine, his charm was nothing more than an annoying cover for his infuriating arrogance. One would think that after over ten years of being apart, the two would have learned to tolerate one another. But that was not near possible, because right from the moment they reunited, it was the same old banter and heated arguments. But beneath all that banter, something new starts to bloom. As time unfolds before them, Jasmine begins to realize that there's more to this hate story of theirs. That the Liam she thought she knew might not be the whole picture. Can the two people who were so dead set on tearing each other apart turn around and admit the attraction they had for each other? A fun hate-to-love, brother's best friend, workplace rom-com.

cover by @JaelynnMoore 𝐆𝐚𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 It's so much easier to spread lies about people than it is to spread the truth. That's what Gabriel knows to be true, at least. According to everyone in his town, he's a monster. He doesn't deserve to be walking among the rest of them. That's far from the truth, though. He was never good at being alone, but it became something he was used to. After everything he'd gone through, he craved solitude. Until she showed up. She wiggled her way right into his heart and now all he craved was her. 𝐀𝐥𝐲𝐧𝐚 Moving to a small lakeside town in Washington was not where Alyna saw her life taking her. She also didn't expect that she'd fall so hard for the brooding mechanic who lived there. Everyone tells her that she should stay away from him. All of the rumors say that he's dangerous, but all she ever feels with him is safe. With obstacles at every turn, will their love be enough to endure even the worst challenge they'll face? Or will they fall apart under the weight? started: 12/15/2023 published: 05/18/2024 completed: highest rankings: #21 bwwm #66 ongoing

What happens when the girl chosen last ends up stealing the whole damn show? Kiana knows how this works. Reality dating shows are all about appearances. And in other dating shows, the Black girls like her are always picked last, if at all. But when a last-minute casting call promises $250,000 and a tropical villa escape, she takes a gamble on love, despite her doubts. Brad didn't come to the island for drama. He came for fun and the possibility to win a whole lotta money. But after being publicly rejected by one of the girls, he's unexpectedly paired with Kiana; a woman who challenges him at every turn, calls out his ego, and refuses to be anyone's second pick. From snarky confessionals to sizzling dares and awkward late-night pairings, Kiana and Brad can't seem to escape each other....or the undeniable chemistry they both swear they don't feel. But in a house full of cameras, secrets, and contestants who will do anything for screen time, falling for the enemy might be the riskiest move of all. Enemies. Lovers. Liars. Viewers. This is more than a game. And someone's about to get played.

As a bet, Alexis Moore took the opportunity to fill out an application for a CEO looking for a wife. She didn't expect to be chosen and she definitely didn't expect the trouble it would come with. Whether it's worth it, is something she'd have to decide. Excerpt: You don't have to stare me down to get what you want," he says. "Is this what you want?" I nod looking at him in those eyes- I couldn't find my voice for some reason, that bitch must have forsaken me. "Words, beautiful." "Yes, Lars." "Open your legs," his gruff voice replies gently. I did what he said without hesitation. He walks into my open legs, my face directly in front of his torso. "Look up at me baby." Don't go chasing waterfalls, listen to the rivers and the lakes like you used to....
