Camilla Moreau loves a good romance story, preferably ones that makes her feel slightly less single. Her boss at the bookstore often finds her giggling and kicking her feet over a particularly cute rom-com.
She just never quite expected to find herself caught in the middle of the love triangles she hates so much (like honestly girl, if you can't choose between the dark brooding brunette or the cute blonde, Camilla would gladly take both)
Enter Valentina, call her Val, the daughter of an impossibly rich Russian family. Spoiled childhood with housemaids, lap dogs, white mansions, summers in Miami, winters in Switzerland, and world-renowned private tutors. Val hates it. So, she obviously chooses to become a starving artist on the streets of New York City after being evicted from her last studio.
Desperately, she searches for a roommate who will not only be rich enough to pay off both of their rents but also be outrageous enough to piss off her parents who are constantly pressuring her to marry. A man. Disgusting.
Camilla, the shy redhead working at the bookstore is the perfect choice.
Did Val also mention that Camilla was cute?
Camilla hates Val immediately; she was nothing but a pretentious spoiled brat. But since she's a broke college student, anybody will do. Just as long as her parents would stop pestering her about isolating herself from society.
That's all this is about, impressing their parents. The perfect deal, right?

The Billionaire Mafia Boss Alpha Bad Boy and Me
A parody... except it slowly gets less satirical as I get way too attached to the characters and turn the story into a shipping-fest ~~~~ "Why are you doing this?" I whispered. He slammed me against another locker. I could see anger, sadness, envy, happiness and lust in his teal green orbs. "Because you're mine." He smirked, gnashing his teeth against mine. ~~~~ Brynn Winters is a 17 year old good girl. She is sweeter than sugar. She is also sarcastic and quirky and innocent and naive and snarky and is a bookworm and not like other girls. She also has trauma to (barely) compensate for her lack of personality. She believes in love but she has never experienced any, until she met him. Ryder Daniels is a 18 year old bad boy. He is sweeter than sin. He is dark and mysterious and plays football (not shown in book). He smokes and drinks beer. He is a ladies' man and a player. He has walls around his heart and some dark secrets that is definitely not spoiled in the title. He does not believe in love. Brynn and Ryder are opposites. So what happens when they meet? He is not who she thinks he is. Will it end in disaster? Or will it end in love? Will it end in flames? Or will it end in a different kind of flame? As disasters come their way, will they choose love or not love? Will their secrets drive them apart? Or will they trust in each other? Join them on their journey of love. There will be love, annoying sluts, conversations that doesn't pass the Bechdel test, cliche tropes, glaring plot holes, subtly glaring plot holes, socialism, orbs, humor, secondhand embarrassment and the tiniest hints of homoeroticism. ~~~~ Reviews (aka criticisms that I'm too lazy to correct): "From a horribly done parody to horribly done leftist propaganda." "Brynn and Ryder are the most frustrating couple I've ever read." "Where humor" "You can't use parody as an excuse for bad writing, you know."Complete
Hostile Takeover

But when Valentina's company accidentally buys one of his family's laundering fronts, she becomes his new obsession - and his biggest problem. She wants to keep her empire clean. He wants his property back. Neither plans on falling for the enemy. But when an unknown rival targets them both, Valentina and Luca are forced into a fake partnership - complete with shared office space, public "engagements," and way too many late nights that stop being about business. He calls her "boss" just to get under her skin. She makes him sign NDAs before kissing her. Together? They're chaos wrapped in expensive suits. ⸻ Expect: • power play banter that turns into sexual tension • a CEO in stilettos outsmarting a man who's killed for less • mafia-style "protection" that gets a little too personal • humor, luxury, danger, and heat in every chapter • a love story that starts with blackmail and ends with a blood oath ⸻ She wanted control. He wanted her surrender. Neither expected love to be the real takeover.
Collision
Valeria had been living on her own ever since she came out as bi and her parents reacted... predictably. She busted her ass to put herself through school, maintain all of her bills, and figure out how to be an adult with no help outside of her best friend Ben and his family. As she was entering her senior year, she figured she deserved to let loose a little. What she wasn't expecting was to get a surprise roommate who oozed privilege and didn't even know how to clean a bathroom. What's worse, they worked in the same department within the pack. With her home life, work life, and even social life taken over, Valeria is over it. Brian was looking to escape the heartbreak of a broken bond anyway he could, and Mountain Springs seemed as good a place as any to do that. He'd never lived away from home, but home was too painful when everything reminded him of him. He was always told "the best way to get over someone is to get under someone else," but so far, he was still just a mess, and the men and women he took to bed only provided a fleeting distraction from the grief tearing him apart. When they collide, will they face each other (and their problems) head-on? Or will they just crash and burn?

Perfect Strangers
Follow my Instagram for any updates and if you have any questions: @nikki_k123 Alex has been living the same life, with the same routine, repeating it every day. Every day is the same. The one thing she does look forward to is going to cafe de l'amour every morning on her way to school, where she sits and writes, all while seeing Carter Reed. The most popular boy at school who, surprisingly, prefers the solitary life. They go to the same cafe every day, sit at the same tables every day, and notice each other every day, yet are strangers who have never uttered a word to one another. And strangers they shall remain. Perfect strangers. But that's about to change. . . . . . I watched as he kept his eyes trained on the notebook in front of him where he aimlessly drew spirals and coils that surrounded each other, trapped each other, and suffocated each other. My eyes traced the movement of his pen, following each line he drew onto the paper. "Your tea." I snapped out of my trance and looked up, thanking Katy before she went back to the counter. I turned back and caught him looking at me. I expected him to look away and continue acting like I don't exist. Like he's always done and so have I. What I didn't expect was for him to walk right over and sit with me. "Hi, I'm Carter." PSA: This story is inspired by the Wattpad novel 'Caffeine' by @meddlingkids ALL RIGHTS RESERVEDComplete
