Felicity White has built walls higher than her stacks of plushies. With a past that left her wary of love and a heart that only feels safe in her soft, regressed space, she's not looking to be saved-she's just trying to stay afloat. Skirts, oversized sweaters, juice boxes, and silence are her comfort zone. Letting someone in? That's the scary part.
Ambrose Callahan is six feet of restless energy, charming recklessness, and a scar above his eyebrow from one too many "don't try this at home" stunts. He's partied until dawn, raced dirt bikes , and swam with sharks-but nothing hits harder than the realization that what he really wants... is someone to love. Someone real. Someone like her.
When their worlds collide, it's anything but smooth. Felicity's guard is up, and Ambrose-well, he's not used to slowing down. But something about her quiet strength pulls him in. And something about his open heart makes her wonder if maybe-just maybe-someone could actually love her .
Between juice box runs, panic attacks , and moments that feel too soft to be safe, they discover that healing isn't always loud... sometimes it's just being held, exactly as you are.
Everything I Never Knew I Needed is a cozy, slow-burn romance about unexpected tenderness, quiet bravery, and finding home in the last place you thought to look.

King of Harts
Emory Hart is a simple woman. She loves her family, enjoys her trips to the book store and to the coffee shop and she can never turn down her best friend when it comes to random nights full of chaos. She's content. All it takes is one run in with the one person she never seemed to win over and a surprise visit from her brother to shift Emory's whole world on its axis. After two years of successfully avoiding him, Emory's "simple" and "content" are about to morph into something a bit more frustrating and confusing and it comes in the form of her brothers best friend. Adrian Harley is a man of control. He's easy going and has charmed his way into the hearts of the entire Hart family. Emory has always been his biggest challenge. It's not because he can't win her over with the same easy going routine he uses with everyone else. It is simply because he can't find himself wanting to. No, what Adrian seeks from Emory is something much more intense. Darker. It's only because of his relationship with her brother that he swallows all of those urges for the sake of his closest friend and his own sanity. When Adrian offers his guest room to his best friend, he comes face to face with the one thing he can't have and his self control begins to snap. Adrian finds himself crossing the one line that was silently drawn when befriending the Harts. The line that leads to the one woman he isn't allowed to want. He's unleashed. Obsessed even. And she thinks he hates her.Complete
Safe now, Little One🧸🍼🧴
At 2:47 AM, Ariyon Patterson makes a desperate call to a hotline she isn't even sure exists. Shaking, breathless, still reeling from a night of binging and purging, she expects either silence-or worse, judgment. Instead, she hears her. Dr. Savannah LaMoore, psychologist and caregiver, has spent years tending to others through the SafeNest hotline. But when Ariyon's trembling voice reaches her in the dark, Savannah recognizes something deeper: the fragile little girl hidden beneath layers of shame, control, and hunger. What begins as one late-night crisis call unfolds into a delicate, unexpected journey. Each conversation untangles another thread of Ariyon's loneliness-her secret little space, her beloved bunny Hoppy, her body that never feels like "enough." And with every patient word, every remembered detail, Savannah builds something Ariyon has never known: a place where rules are safe, softness is allowed, and love doesn't have to be earned. But recovery is not linear, and trust isn't built in a single night. As holidays loom, family pressures tighten, and old wounds claw back to the surface, Ariyon must decide if she can surrender to Savannah care completely-or if she'll retreat into the spiral that has always consumed her. ‼️Air-ree-yawn‼️

Welcome Home Age Regression SFW :) [Requests Open]
To anyone who added this book to a reading list that seemed to be NSFW or a reading list that has NSFW books in it; Please remove it. Now. This is SFW, not NSFW. I have boundaries. Please remove it. I can see who adds it to their non-private reading lists through my notifications, and I look through whatever reading lists my book was added to. I've already blocked someone like this by noticing there were clearly NSFW ones in there. Maybe they like both, or maybe they didn't notice. I'm not taking any chances. This is strictly SFW. I don't want this book to be viewed as anything other than SFW. - I haven't seen too many books like this, so I'm making my own! SFW (Safe For Work)! This is not and will never be NSFW (Not Safe For Work)! Age regression is a completely sfw coping mechanism where someone (an age regressor, also known as a "Little") reverts their mind to a younger mindset known as "little space". A caregiver is someone who cares for a Little while they are in Little Space Ships: Eddie x Frank That's- yeah, that's it. I'll take requests for two people to be together for something, like you wanting them to be together to be caregivers of someone else, but they don't have to be together for that. I may change my mind and add new ships, specifically if any become canon. Also, you can change the ships for a chapter if you'd like. No romantic situations during regression, at all. I take requests, and would love it if you all requested! There is a chapter specifically for doing so. That's basically it! Read info for more info, and enjoy! (I am both an age regressor and possible caregiver myself, by the way.) Upload schedule: Inconsistent, as I have other books in the making. Welcome Home does not belong to me, I only own this story and my OC, Samuel Smith. Welcome Home was created by Clown. 3/13/26: Yes, this book is still open. I'm just working on a lot of other books that haven't been published yet.
Bed Sheets
(Bxb) Eric Valence thought finding a job as an editor for a well-known author named Draven H. Malcolm was the beginning of his writing career. He had no idea that it would also be the beginning of his love story. *** "You're so clueless, it bothers me." He frowned, "What does that mean-" "You never wondered why I gave you all the best things on my floor - the closest desk, drinks from my office, my newest project. I even went to your house and picked you up to make sure you weren't late." "My portfoli-" "There are twenty three others with the same experience as yours, that was an excuse," he admitted, peering into Eric's eyes and daring him to look away. Eric didn't. Draven sighed, "The reason I got mad that day..." he paused for a moment, hesitating again but deciding to let it all out, "the reason I got mad is because I heard you kissed Jason, which I wasn't too pleased about but then seeing you and Justin together..." He never finished his sentence, and Eric raised an eyebrow, "What about Justin and I?" "I feel like you're doing this on purpose," Draven chuckled, examining Eric's confused face. "I'm not sure what you're talking about-" "I like you," Draven said clearly with his entire diaphragm, expression it as loud as he could for Eric to understand. Eric felt his throat squeeze itself shut, no oxygen coming in or out. "I like you, a lot more than I thought, Eric," he breathed. Eric was unable to believe it, shook his head and looked away for moment, before meeting his gaze again. "Why me?" he asked quietly. Draven shrugged his shoulders, eyeing Eric with adoration and admiration, "I'm not sure either, but I want you to be mine."

Final Round [MxM]
[COMPLETED] [2025 Wattys Honorable Mention] Danny's neighbor should be illegal. There's no way someone should be that attractive. They've lived next door to each other for over a year. As a skinny, clumsy, sweater-loving, Modern Poetry professor, Danny never believed someone like him could catch the eye of someone as perfect as Brett. But when Danny (accidentally) RSVPs to a destination wedding he never wanted to attend, he realizes he's in a bind-he needs a plus-one. And somehow, Brett becomes his unexpected solution. Brett's MMA career was on the brink of greatness until an injury stopped him cold. Now, trying to reclaim his spot in the octagon and live up to heavy expectations, the last thing Brett expected was to build a friendship with the neighbor he's been crushing on. However, Danny is undeniably gorgeous and way out of his league, so he needs to maintain realistic expectations. But, when Danny needs a date for a destination wedding, Brett's first instinct is to offer his help. Being his fake boyfriend would not be a hardship. A romantic beach, a fake relationship, and one bed... what could go wrong? Genre: Contemporary Romance / Fake Relationship / Friends to Love / HEA Guaranteed / Dual POV There will be mature scenes between two men that I will mark accordingly. These scenes are intended for mature audiences. This is a spin-off of the worlds of King of Hawkings/Death & Tequila and A New Song/Beats of the Heart, but it is a stand-alone novel, so reading the other novels is unnecessary. However, some old characters will appear, so you may enjoy it more with the full background.Complete

Hate Something To Love Something
Seventeen-year-old Jude is no stranger to silence. Battling depression, anxiety, and the weight of his own thoughts, he keeps the world at arm's length-hidden behind sarcasm, long sleeves, and a heart that's forgotten how to hope. Then comes Ezra: bold, magnetic, and full of light, with a laugh that feels like summer and a presence that demands to be felt. But even sunlight casts shadows. Eighteen-year-old Ezra seems untouchable, but he's learned to wear his confidence like armor-covering up pressure, buried trauma, and the quiet fear of not being enough. When their worlds collide, it's far from perfect. Jude wants to hate Ezra for being everything he isn't. But with every fight, every shared glance, every late-night conversation-walls begin to crack. And maybe, just maybe, love isn't about fixing each other. Maybe it's about surviving-together.Complete
