Blythe Kingston is a nobles daughter set up to be married to her childhood bully, which he claims to have loved her since they met. It's that whole trope of " He just bullied you to get your attention because he likes you". Obviously, Blythe doesn't like him.. she hates him. She actually has no interest in men at all. She fights with her family constantly, since she's of noble blood, she has to comply to their demands. Her wedding is coming up, and she has to figure out what to do. Should she run? Hide? Change her name? She runs. Far away. Far, far, far away. For two days she runs until she can find shelter. In this case, she found a rather huge castle... Manor? Some of what a king would call a summer palace. She steps in, since it looks empty. It's strange, why are all the curtains down? It's such a beautiful day. She opens a curtain, but as she is about to tie one back, she heres a heavy wind and a shrilling booming voice, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" She pulls back and yelps. This is when we meet Aluca Briddington. The tall, masculine, but feminine vampire of the Briddington Manor. Read and find out if she lives, and will this create... a tension? a Romance? perhaps....
When Chef Margot loses her beloved restaurant to her cheating ex-fiance, her best friend, single dad Nathan, steps in with an unexpected offer to help her start over. As they collaborate, sparks fly-but can they overcome their complicated pasts for a chance at real love?
