Hayley Monroe is in her early twenties, ambitious, creative-and a little too good at pretending she's fine. Landing a job as the new marketing and design manager at Quantalis Group, a high-profile company known for its work in economics, analysis, and branding, should be a fresh start. But on her very first day, a clumsy accident-starring a runaway plant and an untimely fall-throws her straight into the arms (and path) of someone completely unexpected.

Jaxon Sloan is the company's charming, easygoing security guard. Just a few years older, with a background in nursing, personal training, and a habit of taking random courses for fun, he's the kind of guy who gets along with everyone. Friendly, helpful, and always quick with a joke-he's used to being in control. But when Hayley stumbles-literally-into his life, she leaves more of an impression than she realizes.

She's embarrassed. He's intrigued.
     She tells herself she hopes they don't meet again.
     He secretly hopes they do.

As workdays pass, tension turns playful, teasing turns tender, and walls begin to crack. But behind Hayley's bright exterior hides a girl fighting silent battles-burnout, overthinking, and a darkness she's never let anyone see.
     Jaxon sees more than she realizes. And maybe, just maybe... he's exactly the kind of steady she never knew she needed.

The Security Guy is a slow-burn, emotional office romance about two people who collide by accident but discover something real-through chaos, banter, and the healing that comes from being truly seen.

"Ava, you have to be quiet! They'll hear you-" Tears started to spill from my eyes, blending in with the rain that dripped down my face. I shouldn't have come here. The last time I followed someone I made accidentally noise and got them killed. I had to get away from Jaxon. I turned on my heel, ready to run to, but Jaxon grabbed my wrist. "Let go" I choked, "I have to leave. You're in danger-" The next thing I knew, his lips crashed onto mine. His arms wrapped around my body, pulling tightly to his chest. "Stop it" I sobbed, unable to control my trembling. "Why are you doing this? Let me go-" "I had to get you quiet" he murmured. "Please Ava. You have to try to calm down. I understand you're scared right now, but you have to trust me. We're going to get home safely. Stay with me a few more minutes, and then we'll get the f*ck out of here. I promise." -- A little about Ava: She has made the long move from Detroit, Michigan to California to escape her gruesome past.

A deconstruction of dark romance set within a psychological thriller, wrapped in an erotic horror story, inside an urban fantasy setting, infused with sci-fi elements, and sprinkled with plenty of nerdiness. I can't guarantee you'll like it, but you definitely haven't read anything like it before. Fair warning - the erotic horror elements are pretty hard. ------ Samantha is ambitious, determined, and strong - a habitual overachiever. But happy? Never. She returns to her hometown and her old best friend, hoping for a weekend of respite, perhaps even a fresh start. Instead, she finds herself thrown into mortal danger, left hovering one breath from death. But survival is only the beginning. Saved by a man whose intentions are anything but clear, Samantha undergoes a procedure far worse than dying, losing herself, layer by agonizing layer. She awakens in the Bright Room reborn - a mystery, both to her captor and herself. To reclaim her life, she must confront impossible questions. Is freedom worth becoming a monster? Can she exact vengeance on the one who saved her? And does she truly want to? For you if you love: Strong, complex women who never back down; moral ambiguity; intense psychological drama; power struggles; trauma explored deeply; twisted relationships that make typical love/hate dynamics look tame. Not for you if: You're young or easily triggered - this story doesn't look away when bad things happen. Note: the cover is temporary, working on a proper one (though similar). ----------- If you are reading this story on any other platform other than Wattpad you are very likely to be at risk of a malware attack.

Adeline wasn't planning on having a panic attack in the middle of a thunderstorm-but that's exactly how she met Leo. Head down, heart racing, soaking wet... and suddenly crashing into a stranger with calm eyes and steady hands. Leo's the last person anyone would expect to be soft. He's an FBI agent, used to chaos, and once had a reputation for being the guy who didn't stick around. But Adeline? She's sweet, sheltered, and the kind of girl who can light up a room without even trying. The second their paths crossed, he knew she was going to mean something. And she did... she meant everything. He didn't mean to fall for the girl who's scared of storms. She didn't plan on it, but she trusted him faster than anyone else. But when two messy hearts collide, sometimes the calm comes after the thunder. This isn't one of those over-the-top, cringy romances. There's no love triangle, no toxic drama, and no dragging things out with a million side characters. Just a good timeline, real connection, and all the wholesome moments we secretly dream about. Leo and Adeline are loyal, sweet, and actually communicate (shocking, I know). You'll laugh, smile, maybe cry - and you'll definitely wish you had a Leo of your own. If you're a reader who's tired of the recycled tropes, toxic drama, and characters who can't get their lives together? Same. I've been in the Wattpad trenches too, and that's exactly why I wrote this book. It's everything I wanted to read but couldn't find. So consider this your sign: you're about to find your new favorite. You're gonna fall for Leo and Adeline - I just know it. - Love, yours truly, DaddyMaddyy

He's haunted by his past, and she's fighting for her future. As a rising influencer in Los Angeles, Charlotte seems to have it all - the followers, the likes, the sponsors. But it's not all roses behind the filters. And when an online cult targets Charlotte with chilling threats, her picture-perfect world starts to crumble. Her only hope? Grayson, an ex-CIA agent turned bodyguard from Platinum Security. Grayson is everything Charlotte is not - secretive, intense, and deeply guarded. From the moment they meet, the attraction is undeniable, but so are their differences. He's all about control and stealth; she's about sharing every moment. Yet, with faceless enemies lurking at every turn, he's the only one she can trust. As the threats escalate, so does the tension between them. Driven to hide off-grid together, Grayson sees beyond her carefully curated persona, and Charlotte glimpses the depths of the man behind the stoic facade. Their forced proximity reveals a passionate connection that cannot be ignored. But they also uncover a conspiracy of deception and betrayal. Can their connection survive the deadly threats closing in on them, or will their deepest scars be their undoing?
