Bridstow, Shropshire, 1962. Emily Calloway runs the village surgery of Dr. Hartley and Dr. Hargrove with quiet, unfailing competence and asking for very little in return.'What would I do without you?' Dr. Hargrove says more than once. But when a beautiful blonde arrives at the surgery one afternoon with monogrammed luggage and every appearance of belonging at Dr. Hargrove's side, Emily discovers there are some heartbreaks no amount of discipline can keep neatly contained, and Dr. Hargrove will discover exactly what life without Emily Calloway is like. This is a vintage old school Mills & Boon-style inspired tale, but with a stronger heroine, and a little grovel thrown in.

Dominant Female & Her Harem of Mates! The court is different, but the game is the same: Survive. Mora was a 6'5" varsity powerhouse, a middle blocker whose life was measured in blocks and aces. But when a team bus crash ends her season-and her life-she doesn't wake up in a hospital. She wakes up in the Silent Reach, a prehistoric jungle where the dragonflies are the size of pigeons and the "primals" are twice as big as anything on Earth. In this savage Beastworld, females are the ultimate currency. Born at a staggering ratio of 1 to every 40 males, women are rare, fragile treasures hidden away in fortress-cities. It is a matriarchal world where high-ranking beastmen work themselves to the bone just for a chance to be chosen by a "weak" female. But there is one rule that has never been broken: Females have no Stars. Enter Mora. With her jet-black hair, varsity-conditioned muscle, and "court vision" that can predict a predator's strike before it happens, Mora is a walking impossibility. She isn't delicate. She isn't fragile. From the nervous 2-star ocelot herbalist who finds her, to the elite 4-star warriors who have never seen a woman taller than their shoulders, Mora is about to turn the social order upside down. Armed with modern knowledge and an athlete's grit, she's building a new life. The Beastworld thinks she's a prize to be guarded. Mora is about to show them she's the apex predator. Author Note: This is a storyline I have committed to so please bear with me. I planned so hard for this. I hope you guys like it. Any similarities with other beastworld stories are coincidences. I have read them, but this is purely from my own imagination. There will be: Polyamory, MxMxF, Mpreg, MxM, Light Kinks. Chapters will be marked with 🌶. Though they will be part of the plot. I am not a smut writer (though spicy smuts are fun to read). I'll try my best to be balanced

"Seven years of grey suits, corporate meetings, and a husband who didn't look at me anymore. I thought I knew what my life was. I was wrong." Samantha thought she had a stable life-until she walked through her front door and found her husband, Mark, in bed with her own sister. Broken and numb, Samantha doesn't scream. She doesn't cry. She simply packs her bags, throws her corporate jacket in the back seat, and drives. With nothing but a road atlas and a finger pointed at a map, she ends up in Penmarris Cove-a tiny, salt-swept village on the edge of the world. But running away is only the beginning. As the "Grey" begins to fade and Samantha picks up her paintbrushes for the first time in years, she realises that the secrets of the Cove run as deep as the sea itself. One woman. One betrayal. And a second chance at a life full of colour.

Alanna did everything in her power to gain her parents' approval: wore the right clothes, dated the right men, attended the right parties, and made enough money to get them through the doors of high society that had long been out of their reach. Instead of a thank you for all she had done, she was blamed for reacting the wrong way to finding out her husband had been cheating on her with her younger sister-and her family wanted her to accept it because it was "true love." When Alanna decided she was done vying for her parents' approval and started feeling isolated, an old classmate came to her with an offer she couldn't refuse: marry him and join one of the most powerful families in town. The catch? Intimacy was off the table. Any plans for future children would be done through surrogacy or artificial insemination. Deciding this was the only way to regain her dignity, she agreed. But her growing attraction to her new husband made the no-intimacy rule all the more unwelcome.

Series: Fault Lines Kael Rivenhart built his life on control. As a SWAT operative, he moves with precision, reads danger before it strikes, and never hesitates when it matters. It's what kept him alive through years of deep-cover military work and high-risk operations. It's also what destroyed his marriage. Two years ago, Kael made a choice that shattered the only thing in his life he couldn't afford to lose. Alina Mercer walked away without looking back, leaving behind a silence he never tried to break. He told himself it was final. He was wrong. When Kael receives a call that Alina has been rushed to the hospital, listed with him as her next of kin, the past he buried resurfaces with brutal clarity. But nothing prepares him for the truth waiting on the other side of that hospital door. A son he never knew existed. A woman still wearing his name. And a condition that proves some damage doesn't stay hidden. Forced into a life he walked away from, Kael must navigate co-parenting with a woman who no longer trusts him, while confronting the consequences of everything he broke. At the same time, a string of high-risk bank robberies begins to unravel something far more dangerous. The perpetrators move with impossible precision, always one step ahead of law enforcement. Someone is feeding them intel. And the deeper Kael digs, the clearer it becomes that the threat isn't just external. It's inside. As pressure builds on both fronts, Kael is forced to face a truth he can't outmaneuver: You can control a mission. You can control the outcome. But you can't control the damage you leave behind. And some fractures don't heal.
