Mila Rose Carter runs Honeycrumb Bakery on a quiet Chicago street.
She's five foot one, chronically covered in flour, and perfectly content measuring her life in teaspoons and timers.
Caleb Rhodes measures his in arenas and scoreboards.
He's an NBA All-Star.
Six foot three.
Defensive powerhouse.
Famous enough that strangers think they know him.
When Caleb ducks into Honeycrumb one cold afternoon, Mila doesn't recognize him.
She doesn't ask for photos.
She doesn't flirt.
She doesn't look at him like he's something larger than life.
And for the first time in years, he feels normal.
But Chicago is loud.
The league is louder.
And when Mila finds out who he really is, she starts shrinking in ways she swore she never would.
Because loving someone whose world is that big?
Feels dangerous.
And Caleb Rhodes has never wanted anything more than the girl who stands on a step stool and pretends she's fine.

THE TEMPORARY PLUS ONE
Everyone knows Roman Winters. The cold, intimidating businessman with a permanent frown and a reputation that's rapidly falling apart. After his ex-girlfriend abandoned a three-year-old son he never knew existed, the rumours spread faster than the truth. Overnight, Roman went from respected CEO to the man everyone called a deadbeat father. Belle Beaumont knows better. For the past six weeks, she's been Roman's personal assistant, and she's discovered that beneath his grumpy exterior is a man who works too hard, sleeps too little and cares far more than he lets anyone see. Then Arlo arrives. Shy, dinosaur-obsessed and clinging to Belle from the moment they meet, the little boy turns both of their lives upside down. When Roman's damaged reputation begins affecting his company, he asks Belle for one impossible favour. Pretend to be his girlfriend. It should be easy. Smile for the cameras. Attend a few events. Convince everyone that Roman Winters isn't the man they think he is. But pretending becomes complicated when Arlo starts asking for Belle every morning, Roman begins looking for her before he realises it, and their fake relationship starts feeling a little too real. Because somewhere between bedtime stories, shared coffees and a three-year-old determined to keep them together, they stop acting like a family. And slowly, without meaning to, they become one.Terminé

It Started With a Peony
She gave him a flower. He never thought it would change everything. Because sometimes, love begins with a single peony. . . . . There's something magical about Tuesdays. Not unicorns-in-the-sky magical, but the kind of magic where strangers spill coffee, curse under their breath, and keep moving like it's part of the city's rhythm. That's where you'd usually find Solana Montenegro-elbow-deep in peonies at the flower shop, humming to herself, and occasionally yelling joy at strangers who looked like they hadn't laughed since kindergarten. That's how she met him. Tall. Stormy. A suit so sharp it could cut glass. Mr. Moody Grumpsuit. And when she shoved a flower into his hand and told him he needed it, Xander Night had no idea it was the first crack in his perfectly controlled world. It started with a peony. And it was only the beginning.Terminé

Blind Faith

Lilian Bouchard, the too sweet, too understanding nurse who he was stuck with while his empire - crafted from crime and loss - began to crumble. In his pursuit of this mystery, and otherwise, Edgar's not meant to be kind. He's meant to be untouchable - calculating, precise, and ruthless. The man everyone fears, whispers about, never looks in the eye. But in the midst of it all, when an accident leaves Lilian blind, she begins to see him more clearly than anyone else ever has. Between hushed conversations, laughter in the rain, and arguments that cut too deep, something starts to shift. He hates how she talks to him. She loves how he listens. He calls it -her- foolishness. She calls it faith. Editing started: May 19, 2026
