On the eve of her cousin's wedding to the love of her life, Cadence Abbott falls into the arms of her mortal enemy (who also happens to be the groom's brother). 

Alexei Petranova is a billionaire CFO. Cady makes ends meet as a graphic artist. They've hated each other since college. Could their relationship even /be/ more cliché? 

Of course, it could! 

Their longstanding feud is rekindled by her new position at his company and the child she's now carrying. Lex would do anything for family, but Cady knows all too well the damage a marriage of convenience can do. It's a difficult situation to be in: How do you get someone who hates you to love you back?

43 parts Complete
When a total stranger knows what eats you, maybe they are your one true love. Even if you don't know it yet. || On Friday the 13th, two twenty-something, Daya and Mike, end up in a mutually beneficial arrangement: she is his caregiver after he breaks his foot; he provides room&board to help her out with a teeny-tiny cash flow problem. Not a whiff of a romance, strictly business. And for a while, all is good... for about five minutes, that is. What can an overweight man, a video game obsessed librarian, know about her quitting a challenging sport of figure skating, Daya scoffs. He needs to get off her case and sort out his binge eating! What does a celery-chewing skating diva care about his failure as a PhD candidate, Mike wonders. She is just replacing her dreams with his non-existing problems instead of pursuing her one true passion! With the two already teetering on the brink of mutually assured destruction, oil splashes onto the flames when Daya resumes her never-ending quest for skating triumph at Canadian Nationals. (Well, that should make Mike happy, right? Right?) But isn't there *something* worth fighting for *together*? Like, you know, love? COMPLETED. First Published: August 19, 2019 Trigger warning: This story contains themes of eating disorders and body image insecurity (male).
