"You don't have to prove anything to me, Selene. You are not someone I learned to accept... you are someone I was meant to love." - Dominic Alarcon
**********
Dominic Alarcon has everything-power, wealth, and a reputation as the ruthless CEO of Alarcon Enterprises. He's used to skyscrapers, five-star hotels, and deals that make or break empires. Emotions are liabilities, and love? A distraction he buried a long time ago.
But when a business trip leads him to the quiet town of San Felipe, he stumbles upon Café Kalinaw, a quaint little coffee shop run by the enigmatic and warm-hearted Selene Cruz-a transgender woman whose strength and sincerity immediately unsettle his carefully built walls.
Selene's café is her sanctuary. After years of fighting for acceptance, she's found peace in the aroma of coffee beans and the laughter of loyal customers. The last thing she expects is for a cold-blooded tycoon to walk into her life-and slowly, into her heart.
What begins as a clashing of worlds soon turns into late-night conversations, accidental smiles, and the stirrings of something neither of them expected. But when Dominic's high-profile world starts to threaten Selene's quiet one, they must both decide: is love worth risking everything for?

Lips Like Ice
He calls himself the Prince. He is humanoid but not human--fascinating, sensual, at the cusp of maturity, and accustomed to getting what he wants. And Lydia has awoken in his world to find that she has been given to him--as a pet, a plaything, and, if he so desires, a lover. As Lydia comes to realize that the Prince is as much a prisoner to his culture's ways as she is, her resentment slowly unfurls into pity, understanding, curiosity, and a deep, unpredictable, consuming lust. She wants him too, on her own terms. But in a world fraught with hidden dangers, her terms are not open for discussion, not when their thirst for one another could doom them both. In a court where monarchs are obeyed and sexual hierarchies are strict, one wrong move could end the Prince for ever... and what would happen to Lydia then? * This novel was originally published by Circlet Press in 2015 under the pseudonym Peggy Barnett.

Every Shot of You
At Espresso Yourself, the cozy café tucked into the ground floor of Edenview Hospital, CEO and head barista Quinn Lockhart makes it her mission to brighten every customer's morning, with extra foam, warm hazel eyes, and an easy smile that rarely falters. Except with Dr. Ava Moreno. The hospital's youngest top trauma surgeon, Ava is a picture of precision and control, always early, always distant, and never without her large Americano, extra shot, no sugar. She never lingers. Never chats. Never smiles. But every morning, without fail, she comes. And every morning, Quinn waits for her. What Quinn doesn't know is that this isn't their first time orbiting each other. Years ago, in the high-pressure haze of med school, Quinn and Ava shared something fragile, unspoken, and burning at both ends, a secret situationship that was as real as it was undefined. Late-night study sessions turned into tangled sheets and unsaid promises. But just as quickly as it flared, it vanished, forgotten entirely by Quinn after a personal crisis and a sudden career pivot that pulled her out of medicine altogether. But Ava? Ava remembers everything. Now, years later, Ava watches Quinn behind the café counter, smiling like none of it ever happened. Like she's never seen her cry. Never kissed her in the dark. Never whispered her name like it meant something. To Quinn, Ava is a mystery she's just now beginning to unravel. To Ava, Quinn is a heartbreak she never got to mourn. As the slow-burn tension between them reignites, Ava must decide whether to keep pretending or finally confront the woman who once loved her, and forgot. Because some brews are meant to be bitter. And some love stories don't start at the beginning... they start again.Lengkap![Theory of Attraction [LSFanfic]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/402624625-256-k912547.jpg)
Theory of Attraction [LSFanfic]
Lea has been a literature professor for years-sharp, respected, and utterly unshakable. She believes in rules, order, and doing things the "right" way.

They clash in the classroom. They bicker in the faculty lounge. And somehow... they can't stop noticing each other. Enemies, colleagues... maybe something more?

Witches, Boys, and Other Monsters
𝐁𝐞𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐎𝐥𝐝 𝐖𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐒𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐠𝐬𝐢𝐞𝐬! A pact with the darkness left her twisted and deformed. Strange noises and flashes of light have been coming out of her basement at night, and her pet monster stalks children from the shadows. 𝐋𝐢𝐞𝐬. 𝐀𝐥𝐥 𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬. Eliza Scaggs (not Scraggsies, thank you very much) is tired of all the rumors about her. Sure, she's looking a bit haggard as of late, but she's been working herself to the bone on a secret government project to prove that she, the only woman in the wizard's guild, belongs there. So, maybe she's got some gray in her hair, but she's not old, not old-old- and the only thing she's made a pact with is her purveyor of rot brew tea. Okay, the pet monster thing is true, but Throat Ripper hasn't caught anyone, not yet. She's even taken on a new apprentice. Mentoring a teen, that's not something a twisted hell spawn would do, right? Still, there is something off about the boy, Oliver. He's a good kid, but he's quiet, too quiet, and she's worried that when he asks if she can "fix" people, he means himself... Witches, Boys, and Other Monsters is about: A witch who's not really a witch, A boy who's not really a boy, All the "monsters" who are regular people, All the regular people who are monsters... That, and a bunch of fireballs.
