Prince Ambrose has been veiled from the public all his life, for this moment. The Game. Every Heir from the three kingdoms must be sent out into the world on their own after they become of age, a time of intrigue for the public, for whoever discovers the Heir will become betrothed to them, and returned to the palace a royal. And Ambrose hates it, he hates the woods, he hates his short hair, and he hates commoners. But he does have one good thing, his horse, Bella Rosa. Oh, and he supposes the bakery with the handsome archivist helps.
Bennett has given his whole life to the archives, and a month before the Comet Festival in the kingdom of Damerel, he receives a letter from his sibling, begging him to return home. After handing off his work to the scribes, he leaves for the Blue Rose Bakery, and is disgruntled -to say the least- when he finds a disgraced ex-noble taking up his rooms. Albeit a very beautiful one.

BOOK 2 OF CAGED!!! DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU HAVENT READ CAGED BOOK 1!! Warnings: - sickeningly sweet romance - mentions of sex - a LOT of fluff - LGBTQ - Gayness -Homophobia - love confessions - characters with mental issues Reincarnation? How ridiculous. At least, that's what 19-year-old Oliver Menton thought-until the day he woke up feeling like a stranger in his own body, as though he were living someone else's life like a story unfolding before him. But with a loving family and the kingdom's most famous bakery to his parents' name, Oliver decided to embrace the life he had, even if something about it felt oddly... incomplete. It had been three years since the tragic loss of Prince Consort Zwei Lloyd, and Prince Desmond Yohan III still carried the weight of grief and regret. So when a trip to a local bakery led him face-to-face with someone who looked almost identical to his late brother's husband, it was as if fate had reached out to him. Haunted by memories and driven by a desire to love better than his brother had in the past, Desmond found himself returning to the bakery every day, his heart stirring each time Oliver greeted him with a smile-and his exact order memorized. Desmond told himself he would keep his feelings hidden, content to admire Oliver from afar. But when he finally makes his first move, he discovers that perhaps fate had other plans-plans that just might entwine their hearts in a love story neither expected but both desperately needed.

Combine that with her difficult upbringing and you can say she's been more than a little resistant to her best friend Piper's urging for her to open up and reach out to new people. How could she ever trust someone else? When Charli and Caleb meet under somewhat difficult circumstances both of their pessimistic views are challenged by the feelings that begin to blossom between them. But Caleb is hiding a few pretty big secrets and before he knows it the lies have gotten out of control. Can Caleb and Charli overcome the lies, hurt feelings, and broken trust to make it out on the other side?

All I Need ✔️
"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years.

Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers.

But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.Complete

Mercy & Fire

My heart hammered against my ribs and cold sweat gathered at my palms and chest. His armor clanked and clinked, scraping against itself as he grew closer and closer... Then silence. "Come out little rabbit." The voice was deep and menacing, and I would've soiled myself right there if I were any younger. I couldn't see very well, but I could see what little moonlight that filtered through the trees reflected off a pale face. His gaze was like a hungry, crazed wolf hunting its prey.
