No Reservations: Ryan's Version (A Romantic Comedy)
And there she was, in the flesh. Her hair still dyed blonde, but curly again like when I saw her for the first time. She looked tired, cynical. Bored. And a little sad. I recognised these emotions instantly as it was the same way I'd been feeling for too long now. However, she was also still utterly beautiful and completely perfect, and the love I'd always harboured for her rushed back like a burst dam. Let's face it, it had never really went away. The dam may as well have even held back by some dubious duct tape. It had been leaking for years. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ He pretty much fell in love at first sight when he was 14 years old. 20 years later he's having to face the girl he fell for again . . . And he's not really coping well with it. You hopefully already know how it ends . . . But here's the chance to see Ryan's version of events. ❤️ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ ***This novella is Ryan's side of the main relationship in "No Reservations". It therefore serves as a companion to the main book and would be best enjoyed as dessert after you've binged on the main. 😉***Complete
Salazar's Caged Love
She was just an ordinary girl from today's world- a routine life, a beating heart, a future she thought she controlled. Until the night he came for her. Salazar. An ancient vampire king born in a world far older, darker, and colder than time itself. A creature carved from shadows, bloodlust, and laws written long before humans learned to speak. He steps through her century like it's nothing- breaking rules, bending time, crossing worlds- just to steal one terrified girl from her ordinary life and drag her into his. She wakes up in a place where the sky roars in crimson colors, where magic runs beneath the earth, where creatures bow at his feet and tremble at his silence. She is his captive. His forbidden fascination. His weakness in a world where men like him are not allowed to feel anything at all. She fears him. He tastes her fear like hunger. But there's something else in her scent- something soft, something pure, something he never expected: innocence. And for a monster who has lived centuries bathing in blood, her innocence is the sharpest temptation he has ever known. She wants to go home. He has no intention of returning her. Because in his world, time is power. Magic is law. And once a vampire king chooses someone, the universe bends to obey him. She didn't enter another world by accident. She was taken. Claimed. Bound to a destiny written long before her birth. And Salazar? He is ready to tear apart worlds, timelines, and kingdoms just to keep the girl who wasn't supposed to be his- but now is.Complete

Did you also change my clothes?" I recall his words and am almost too shocked to ask about his invasion of my privacy. A devilish smile crosses his lips as he coyly looks at his feet. He is enjoying my embarrassment. "You're clothes had blood on them and I wasn't about to put you in a clean bed with dirty clothes on.
