Five... four... three... two... and we're LIVE!
Vian's got a new job as a television writer in New York and she feels overwhelmed. She's fighting with her fiancé, she has no idea what she wants to do with her life, and she's being dragged headfirst into the craziest job she'll ever have.
Romance, comedy, and drama... Every genre's at play in the workplace as Vian and her quirky (and annoyingly attractive) co-workers fight to achieve their dreams: career, relationship, and otherwise.

Behind the Letters
It was supposed to be anonymous. Just some harmless, late-night messeges on a forum. No names. No photos. No real-life complications. She was GoldTrap-mysterious, sharp, and way too good with words. I was BlueInk-awkward, sarcastic, and definitely not looking for anything. But then she made me laugh. Then she made me think. Then... she made me feel things I really shouldn't be feeling for someone I've never met. I'm Quinn. Twenty-four. Screenwriter-in-training. Emotionally a little chaotic and basically there no reason an amazing woman like her would be falling for someone like me. I've played a lot of roles in my life. But never this one. ----------------------------------------------- Late at night, I started writing letters to a stranger on a private forum-just to feel something real. She calls herself BlueInk. She's young, clever, infuriatingly honest... and somehow, she sees right through me. She doesn't know I'm Juliette Delaney-Hollywood's favorite ice queen with a face on every magazine and a life that doesn't belong to me anymore. She doesn't know that when I type, my hands shake. That when I read her replies, I smile. That I'm craving her words more than I've ever craved the spotlight. And I don't know what will happen if she finds out who I am. Because if I tell her the truth, I might lose the one person who loves me for who I really am. Not the icon. Not the actress. Just... me. But if I don't? I'll never get to feel her say my name out loud.Complete
My Unforgettable Girl - B.E.
This is the fourth book in the My Girl series - "I don't want you to leave," I tell her. "You're going against your own words now," she says. I nod. "I don't care. Please, just stay," she sighs and nods. "Okay," she says quietly. "What's gonna happen? Between us?" I shrug. "I don't know. Do you think there's even a way to move on from everything? Would that even be a good idea? I mean, think about it. And like really think about it," I tell her. She doesn't say anything for a moment. Then she sighs. "There's only one way to find out," - Will have smut, drugs and alcohol, and assault warnings.

Strength and Sensuality [Completed]
A modern Pride and Prejudice story. Only sexier. Mira is a refugee, starting a new life far from home. She has to deal with her troubled past, her son, and her enigmatic boss, while her only weapon is her killer sense of humor. It's a slow-building love-hate story, with a strong female lead; two control freak lawyers, fighting for dominance, in denial of their feelings; an alpha discovering his submissive side; lots of humor and humanism. ~73K words ~~~ Warnings: - Mild language. Characters talk like white-collar workers usually do in real life. - Chapter 43 has mild sexual content. It isn't very graphic, it's emotional, rather, but if you don't want to read about it, just skip it. It won't affect the story. ~~~ Featured: - WP Romance's Read Together and Head Over Heels reading list - WP ChickLit and Women's Fiction reading list - WP New Adult's Romance reading list - WP Adult Fiction reading list - WP Classic Authors Twisting Austen's Magical Moments reading list - WP Retold reading list ~~~ Reviews: "You have a lot of literary elements going for you: your style is chock full of subtext, humor, and intelligence. There's a careful craftsmanship in world-building, character development, and theme." Scripturam Awards "A truly unique story with a quite remarkable a plot! It has the ability to convey the emotions stirred within the characters to the depth of readers heart!" The Graphomania Awards "I am beyond impressed with this work. The characters feel real; three-dimensional. The narration does not feel forced in any way, it flows as it reads." The Dream Awards "Some books lead with suspense and cliffhangers that even if you don't want to continue the book you do so just to sate your curiosity. But then a rare gem like this comes along and without any cheap tricks it pulls in, you just continue and keep reading it and you may not even know when you reach the end." Shadow City AwardsComplete
DO YOU REALLY HATE EACH OTHER? (MXMXM)
Theodore Vales 🌸 Do you really hate each other? Because I don't think you do. I've seen hatred before. It is clean. Sharp. Cold. What you two have is anything but. It is fire, restless and consuming. It is tension so thick the air trembles when you walk into the same room. It is silence heavy with everything unsaid, every word buried because neither of you knows how to bleed without drawing blood. And yet-when you reach for me, both of you, your hands brush too close. Your eyes flicker not just to me but to each other, even if only for a second. You think I don't notice, but I do. I notice the longing beneath the fury, the way your anger is only the shadow of something deeper. You both want me. And I-I want you both. But maybe it was never only about me. Maybe it has always been about 'us'. Three. A number most would call too much. Too messy. Too impossible. And yet, in the way you breathe, in the way you break, in the way you burn-I see it. Three is the only way this story could ever be told. So I'll ask again. Do you really hate each other? Or is hate just another word for everything you're too afraid to confess? A story of rivals, longing, and the kind of love that breaks all rules. 🌸🌸🌸☁☁☁🌸🌸🌸 ⚠️ Viewer's Discretion is Advised ⚠️ This story contains mature themes and is intended for adult audiences.

I don't know what spell you casted on my parents but I won't ever fall for it. And get one thing straight & clear, I don't want anyone to know about this marriage. We will act like a couple only infront of my parents. Don't expect anything more from me and neither do you knock at my door unless it's important." He spoke menacingly and turned to leave but the moment those words left his mouth, I felt as if someone dumped freezing water over my head. If he hates me so much, then why did he marry me and what does he mean by.. "What do you mean by 'girls like me' ?" I asked. He turned around and walked even closer, all my confidence began to fade. He leaned in, I could feel his breath on my ears. His closeness was doing things to me I have never felt before. I was on the verge of losing my senses, until he spoke.. "An innocent acting, desperate brat." His words pierced my heart, moreover his tone, his words reminded me of people I have been fighting all my life.

The Road to Us
A class clown on a motorcycle. A shy librarian with a guarded heart. A slow burn MM romance about love, healing, and belonging. Hudson // Colton rides through life like he's allergic to brakes. Reckless, loud, the kind of beautiful that feels like trouble. I should know better. I've spent years choosing silence over risk, libraries over chaos, certainty over the unknown. But he looks at me like the world isn't something to survive-it's something to live through, messy and fast. Every time he grins, something in me unlearns caution. Maybe I'm finally ready to stop being the safe choice. Colton // Hudson's too careful for his own good, always hiding behind pages and plans while I'm out here chasing wind on two wheels. I never meant to fall for someone who thinks before he breathes, but damn if he doesn't make me want to slow down. He looks at me like I could be something steadier than a storm, and it scares the hell out of me. Because when the road turns rough and old wounds split open, it's not the crash that worries me, it's what happens if he's the one I can't outrun. 📖 Part of the Road to Us Collection The Road to Us Collection is a series of interconnected standalone queer romances about friendship, found family, and falling in love against the odds. Each book can be read as a standalone, but together they weave a larger story of friendship, healing, and love in all its forms. The Road to Us - Colton & Hudson (strangers-to-lovers, opposites attract) Playing with Fire - Chuck & Carlos (grumpy/sunshine, hurt/comfort) Run with the Devil - Adrian & Tommy (forbidden romance, age gap, outlaw danger) Night's Bloom - Lorena & Marisol (sapphic romance, grief and healing) Where the Desert Glows - Skye & Darren (hurt/comfort, anxious/stoic, friends-to-lovers)Complete
Driven to Distraction
Alex Thompson was due to marry her high school sweet heart Eric Ramirez. Period. That's it. It's about as exciting as her life ever got really. She had a job, a good job but an unconscious reality was that she was bored. She had her back blown out once every three months, if that, and an overbearing mother who made her life hell. *enter Mitch* Eve 'Mitch' Mitchell. An outgoing, strong minded, independent, raging homosexual, lover to all, charming British soul. They meet by accident after a tough day at the office for Alex. A mistaken identity was all it took for a tiny little kiss. A moment blown all out of proportion for the Christian-bred Miss Thompson and her life turns more miserable than she anticipated for every time she turned around...Mitch was there behind her. Something about Mitch was new and fresh and her soul was just what Alex needed (little did she know). Secrets from the past are brought to the surface. A sad ending to a young lady's life. A realisation that family isn't always blood related. Alcohol isn't a medicine. Violence isn't a key. Hearts were never meant to be broken. Two things to take away: you never know what is going on in someone's head and the most important thing...you never know what happens behind closed doors. A/N just a random story about two people who meet accidentally. Plays with gender norms and very inclusive of LGBTQ (being a member myself). Could be triggering I'm not sure as some identity questions are thrown around. It does include smoking, drinking, some homophobia, profanities, violence and smut. Also anything in brackets with A/N means authors note and that's just me leaving a little comment. Enjoy...Complete
