At Grandview University, chaos was basically a course on its own. Between professors who thought PowerPoint slides were modern art, cafeteria rice that could double as building cement, and roommates who believed deodorant was "a capitalist scam," life was already funny enough. But then there was Karenita Lopez-"K-Lo" to everyone on campus. A drama major with the energy of three telenovelas and a TikTok account dedicated solely to overacting. She walked like the hallways were her runway and spoke like everyone had subscribed to her personal Netflix series. And then there was Derrick Menson-quiet, chill, and dangerously allergic to gossip. He wasn't exactly shy; he just had a magical ability to avoid nonsense. Which unfortunately made him the number one target for the campus rumor mill. The latest? That Derrick was secretly gay-only because he had mastered the art of ignoring clingy girls and focusing on surviving his assignments. K-Lo and Derrick weren't enemies, but they weren't friends either. They shared a special brand of mutual mockery: trading funny, fake-annoyed looks whenever they passed in the hallway. It was the kind of interaction where other students whispered, "They're either going to fight or get married." Nobody expected K-Lo to be the one to flip the script. One random afternoon, she marched up to Derrick in the middle of the hall-like it was an episode finale-and proposed. Not out of love. Not out of destiny. But because K-Lo was tired of being single, and Derrick was tired of the gay rumor parade. So, to everyone's shock, Derrick said yes. And that's how the strangest, funniest fake relationship on campus began... a deal that was supposed to stop the drama but ended up writing the most unexpected love story of Grandview University.

One singer past her prime, one admirer out of his depth, and one last chance at an encore. Scene: London, 1835. Once the darling of Covent Garden, Aimée Millet has exchanged ovations for creditors and a pension barely fit for decency. Her loyal maid, Nellie Simmons, guards what remains of their household pride with a teapot and a tongue sharp enough to steal scenes. Enter Mr Julian Harcourt: twenty-four, earnest, and catastrophically well-bred. His impulsive gallantry sets Bloomsbury whispering and Aimée's temper alight. A polite apology spirals into a comedy of missteps, music, and inconvenient tenderness. Julian believes love can mend what the world has broken; Aimée knows better. Yet when kindness arrives with violets, laughter, and the first glimmer of hope she has dared to feel in years, it becomes impossible to refuse. For readers who like their romance witty, their heroines wary, and their happy endings hard-won.

The destination? A restricted zone with armed officers and coded doors. And her new husband? Apparently part of something far bigger than love.

Well... they were never part of the contract. He wasn't supposed to care. She wasn't supposed to feel.

And when Luna finds out he's hiding a secret life-one with danger, missions, and people watching from the shadows-she's already in too deep. She thought she knew who she was.

A Regency Romantic Comedy "He's a marquess with no grace. She's a maid with no patience. Together, they're society's worst scandal-and its greatest love story." He survived the war with his title intact, his cravat crooked, and absolutely no idea how to function in normal society. Now that he's home, the once-dashing (and accidentally heroic) Marquess of Windmere is a walking catastrophe-spilling tea, forgetting names, and setting fire to social decorum at every turn. The only thing standing between him and complete ruin? His maid. Catrina Bellamy is sharp-tongued, unshakable, and definitely not impressed by her employer's noble title or inability to hold a teacup. Secretly, she's been in love with him for years. Publicly, she calls him "Your Disastership" under her breath and threatens him with a mop. But when a scandal brews, a kiss almost happens (twice), and society demands the Marquess marry anyone but her, things begin to spiral into one gloriously chaotic, heart-squeezing mess. Will he trip over his own feelings before he can propose properly? Will she ever admit her heart's been his since she was ten? And how many household objects will they destroy before they finally kiss? A slow-burn, laugh-out-loud, enemies-to-lovers-but-also-servant-to-disaster-romance that proves love doesn't require elegance-just a little honesty, a lot of heart, and maybe a goat in pearls.

An agreement which brings them in marriage for the sake of legacy and power.

But in a world where control is everything and vulnerability is weakness, love isn't part of the plan. It's war. In a story of sharp banter, slow-burning tension, and unexpected softness, Hate Written in Vows is a tale of two rivals who just might ruin everything... or rewrite what it means to be in love.

And amidst the chaos, he finds himself drawn to the one flaw the world mocked in her- The only flaw he couldn't stop loving.

This isn't your typical twins' story- there's no light and shadow here, no good twin and bad twin. Just two reflections that blur the line between charm and danger.
