Regina "Genie" Watson spent a decade suffocating under perfection: a perfect career, a perfect marriage, being the perfect daughter. But one explosive dinner with her controlling husband and demanding parents shatters the illusion. With a single word, no, Genie walks away from the life built for her and finally starts building one of her own.
With the support of her best friend, Tasha, Genie opens a luxury travel agency and begins rediscovering joy, freedom, and the woman she used to be. Years later, on a group trip she's hosting, she meets Soren Avery, an attorney with his own scars and secrets. Their connection is unexpected, electric, and exactly what Genie never knew she needed.
This is the story of a woman choosing herself, finding adventure, and learning that sometimes the life you were meant to live waits for you on the other side of letting everything else burn.

Delete Her Number, Spencer
Aniya thought marriage meant partnership, love, and maybe the occasional argument about Netflix passwords. What she didn't plan for was Farrah - Spencer's charming, passive-aggressive "work wife" who somehow made "emotional cheating" look like part of the job description. At first, it was small stuff: snarky comments about Aniya's yoga career, a suspicious number of office selfies, and a mysteriously missing anniversary mug. But when Farrah starts hashtagging Spencer as her "WorkHubby" and scheduling dinners on their actual anniversary, Aniya realizes she's not imagining it-this woman is trying to steal her man, one team meeting at a time. Now Aniya has two options: 1. Let Farrah run the show while Spencer plays the clueless nice guy. 2. Or remind everyone - including her husband - exactly who's married to him. Told with sharp humor, brutal honesty, and enough chaos to fill an HR report, Delete Her Number, Spencer is a modern love story about marriage in the social media era - where loyalty is tested, egos are fragile, and no one is safe from a "work bestie" with boundary issues.
