They were rivals before they were interns. Now they're blogging about love stories-while accidentally writing one of their own.
Ava Davis doesn't have time for romance. She has goals, spreadsheets, and a summer internship at her dream publishing house. The last thing she expects is to be paired with Theo Ellis-her former high school rival who still knows exactly how to get under her skin.
Theo's charm is as irritating as ever, and Ava's determination to act indifferent is hanging by a thread. But when they're assigned to co-write a blog about romance tropes, sparks fly-in all the wrong (and maybe some right) directions.
Between coffee-fueled deadlines, snappy banter, and an undeniable pull neither of them wants to admit, Ava and Theo might just prove that sometimes, the best love stories are the ones you don't see coming.
For fans of witty slow-burns, reluctant partnerships, and enemies-to-lovers tension, Trope And Error is a YA rom-com about rewriting your story-even when it doesn't follow the outline.

Hardwired For Him✓
Confidence is a hell of a drug, and for Skylar Evans, the high is magnificent-but the comedown is a total fucking bitch. It starts with the catastrophic snap of a heel and ends with a face-plant into the expensive, custom-tailored chest of a man who looks like he owns the sunrise-and probably the bank you keep your meager savings in. Fresh out of the Ivy League, armed with elite coding skills and a caffeine addiction she refuses to apologize for, Skylar wants one thing only. Control. Over her career. Her future. Her heart. Then she meets Carlos D'Artagnan. He is the devil in a bespoke suit. A predator who breathes strategy and exhales liquid heat, wearing a smile that promises heaven while his silver gaze drags you straight to hell. He is elegance sharpened into a weapon, a towering monolith of power built on a foundation of secrets and scars. The moment his eyes lock onto hers, the air in the room doesn't just thin-it catches fire. In that one, soul-stripping look, Skylar realizes the encryption on her heart has been bypassed; her carefully guarded life is about to be dismantled, piece by agonizing piece. One reckless encounter drags her into his orbit of corporate warfare and whispered betrayals. Carlos thought he had buried the monster he used to be, but the past is a debt that always collects. Now, it's rising to reclaim him, and Skylar is the only collateral he's not willing to lose.Complete

The Deadline | 18+ Version | English
One office. Tree Days to get the job done. And to make it even worse - I have to work with my biggest enemy. Mia is a team lead at a software development startup. She doesn't just love her job - she also adores all of her coworkers. And even more importantly, everyone loves her back. Everyone except Noah. He's another team lead at the company, and he seems completely immune to her friendliness. Mia has no idea why, but no matter how hard she tries, befriending him has been utterly impossible. Normally, that's not much of an issue. They only cross paths occasionally. And when they do, it's as if they've made an unspoken agreement: keep as much distance as humanly possible. But then a mistake forces them to spend the next 72 hours working together. In the same office. A nightmare for both of them ... or maybe something else?
Somebody Wrote Me This Way
Enemies to lovers (possibly?) Addison has one rule: avoid the main characters. She's perfectly fine being the background extra in her own high school story - hoodie up, chocolate milk in hand, garlic bread as emotional support. No drama. No clichés. Definitely no "mysterious transfer student with tragic eyes" sitting next to her. But then Hikaru Nakamura shows up. And Avery - perfect hair, perfect laugh - joins the same class. And Jackson, the school's resident chaos magnet, suddenly notices her after one clumsy accident in the hallway. Now Addison's worst nightmare is happening: She's being dragged into a love triangle she never auditioned for. Armed only with sarcasm, self-awareness, and a strong refusal to participate in this rom-com nonsense... Addison might just have to survive being the unwilling heroine of a story she never wanted. All she's ever wanted is to be invisible.

College Living
When Sophie Bennett arrives at prestigious Westbrook University for her freshman year, she's ready for the classic college experience: new friends, late-night study sessions, and maybe even romance. What she's not ready for is to find Jake Carter unpacking his stuff in what's supposed to be her single dorm room. Due to a catastrophic housing system glitch during peak enrollment, they've both been assigned to Room 304 in the co-ed Arlington Hall-and with every dorm on campus filled to capacity and a housing waitlist stretching into next semester, they're stuck together. Sophie is a driven psychology major with color-coded planners and dreams of becoming a therapist, while Jake is a laid-back architecture major who takes life as it comes, with a sketchbook always in hand and a tendency to stay up until 3 AM working on projects. Living in impossibly close quarters means witnessing each other at their most vulnerable-Jake walking around shirtless after morning showers, Sophie in oversized t-shirts with sleep-mussed hair, stolen glances that linger too long, and an accidental kiss during a moment of weakness that they both agree to forget (even though neither of them can). As they navigate the electric tension crackling between them, establish ground rules that become harder to follow, and pretend that sharing a room with someone you're wildly attracted to is totally normal, Sophie and Jake discover that the line between roommates and something more isn't just blurred-it's completely erased. By the time they finally stop fighting what's been building between them since day one, they'll realize that sometimes the best things in life are the ones you never saw coming, and that falling in love with your roommate might just be the perfect disaster.
