ENEMIES TO LOVERS + FAKE DATING + NEIGHBORS + HOCKEY CAPTAIN + CHEER CAPTAIN

Nicolas Herrera is used to winning. As the captain of UC San Diego’s hockey team, with a dangerously charming smile and an ego to match, he knows exactly the effect he has on people on and off the ice.

Bárbara Hendler is no different. As UCLA’s cheer captain, she’s always been in control, effortlessly perfect in everyone’s eyes… until her equally perfect boyfriend, hockey player Declan Hawkins, shatters her heart.

Now, with her pride bruised and her image on the line, Bárbara refuses to let anyone see her fall apart especially not in the university she’s always ruled.

But when an unexpected fire turns her life upside down and forces her to share the same building and hallway with Nicolas Herrera, everything she carefully built starts to unravel.

They can’t stand each other. That much is clear.

Which doesn’t stop them from realizing they might be exactly what the other needs.

A fake relationship seems like the perfect solution: Nicolas needs the spotlight to secure a crucial student election, while Bárbara just wants to prove—to everyone, and especially to herself that she’s over her ex.

Simple. Strategic. No feelings involved.

Or at least, that was the plan.

Between sharp banter, high-stakes games, and a dangerously close living arrangement, pretending starts to feel all too real and the line between performance and truth begins to blur.

Because maybe the biggest mistake of all… is faking a love that no longer feels like a lie.

My husband stole my work, my future, and nearly my life.

In a fit of desperation, he asked his secretary to marry him, assuring her that it would be temporary. However, she refused, confessing that she planned to marry her boyfriend and was not interested in his lucrative proposal. Yet, all was not lost.

"Mmm... Tyler... I can't take it anymore..."

My wife's sexy best friend panted heavily in my private training room, her previous tough talk completely gone.

"Giving up already? We haven't even started." I grabbed her tiny waist, flipped her over, and pushed her back into the set. "Again. We're nowhere near done."

“You have no idea what you do to me,” he rasped, his voice rough with restraint.
“Then don’t hold back,” she whispered. “Not tonight.”
And he didn’t. Damon trailed kisses from her neck to her waist
His hands roaming her body like a canvas waiting for the stroke of his fingers, he worshiped her whole.

When Claire learns Marcus gave Julian a $5,000 casino voucher for rent—money she needed for her brother—she and Victor frame Julian for stealing chips, planting marked cards, a doctored video, and a fake cash drop. Julian’s fired, Marcus falters, and Vegas’s neon haze cloaks a brewing storm.

I thought I’d seen every kind of corpse this city could cough up. Then they started showing up with tattoos that bled ink and vanished before sunrise.
I’m Detective Reese Calder, and I’ve spent ten years chasing ghosts with human faces. But this case? This one’s different.
These marks aren’t just skin-deep. They’re alive. And somehow, they know me.
Now I’m digging into a pattern no one wants to see — bodies with no connection, no cause of death, just symbols burned into flesh that weren’t there a day before. And the more I investigate, the more the ink spreads — in my thoughts, in my dreams, under my skin.
Someone — or something — is writing a message through the dead. And it’s starting to spell my name.

Clara Hayes has never been lucky in love—until she meets Adrian Wolfe, a man who seems almost too perfect to be real. Charming, protective, and utterly devoted, Adrian feels like the answer to every lonely night she’s endured in New York City. But just as Clara begins to believe her happy ending has arrived, the city is shaken by a string of brutal murders. Each victim is a woman who looks eerily like her, and each had been dating someone shortly before her death.

Clara’s initial doubts spiral into chilling suspicion. Adrian’s late-night absences, his hidden scars, and his strange knowledge of crime details begin to form a terrifying picture she can’t ignore. With the help of a determined private investigator, Clara digs into Adrian’s past—uncovering a trail of vanished women and dangerous secrets. Now, she must face the unthinkable: is her perfect boyfriend a devoted lover… or a cold-blooded killer?

"Do you hear that? The woman who is chosen to be Damian Chase’s fifth wife will be offered 5 million dollars!” 

“Even 10 million dollars I won’t marry such a jerk!”

Sabrina Jade was recognized for being a competent and gorgeous secretary. For five years, she had worked for her boss Damian Chase, who was renowned as a womanizer. Almost every woman who knew Damian wanted to sleep with him, but in Sabrina’s eyes, her boss is an absolute asshole. She just wanted to stay away from him.

Sabrina never thought an accident would intertwine her and her boss’s fates, and she found that her boss was not so annoying?

I thought I had the perfect life.

A mansion in Westport, a successful husband, a beautiful daughter. Sixteen years of marriage that seemed unbreakable.

Until I found another woman's watch band in my husband's car.

Until I discovered that woman was my daughter's soccer coach.

Until I realized my nine-year-old daughter was helping her father lie to me.

Some betrayals strike like lightning. Others seep in like slow poison, until you discover your entire world is a lie.

When I stood on the platform at our annual community barbecue, armed with evidence and burning with rage, I understood a truth that would have destroyed the woman I used to be:

Sometimes the only way to save your family is to destroy it first.

A story of devotion, destiny, and love that refuses to fade.
Lian Hua, a gentle healer haunted by dreams of a love she cannot remember, and Shen Wei, a mysterious wanderer hiding the truth of his powerful lineage.

To defy destiny, Lian Hua and Shen Wei must confront buried truths, face reincarnated enemies, and choose love knowing it may cost them everything.

So when Lyssara Quill walks through its black iron gates, every wolf on campus smells weakness.

They are wrong.

Surrounded by rivals, tested by cruel traditions, and stalked by secrets older than the packs themselves, she has only one goal: survive long enough to leave.

Then the bonds begin.

Two souls that find each other night, one human the other vampire. After a fateful night, Tessa becomes aware of the things that lurk at night. Not all is what it seems in Falls Hollow.

"Damn! Haze, you're making this hard," he murmured, tracing my lips. I captured his thumb and he moaned and crashed his lips on mine fiercely as our kiss turned urgent, fueled by stolen moments and forbidden love. His hands explored my face, sending shivers down my spine. Then he moved his lips to my ears and sucked on my earlobe which made me moan with want. Just as our desires threatened to consume us, my phone shattered the illusion. An unknown number flashed on the screen. I reached for it, but Adam's hand clamped down on mine.
"Ignore it, babe," he pleaded, voice husky.
“What if it’s important?” I argued
He sighed, reluctantly pulling away. As I picked up, a feminine voice filled my ear.

He is the First Wolf.
Five thousand years of blood and moon and hunger carved into a man who no longer remembers how to ask.
She is the last High Priestess reborn, the only woman who ever made the Moon scream, and the only one who can end his curse… or finish him for good.
Eva Harlow doesn’t believe in fate. She believes in locks, in exits, in never owing anyone anything.
Malach Whitaker believes in one thing only: her.
He has waited through empires and plagues and the slow rot of centuries, collecting pieces of her dead lives like a dragon hoards gold. This time he is done waiting. This time the torc is around her throat before she even knows she’s been caught.
Beneath a shuttered Appalachian megachurch lies The Hollow: an underground coliseum of rust, rage, and pack law.
Here, silver scars and moonshine flow in equal measure.
Here, the bond between them is a living blade: every touch sharpens it, every refusal makes it bleed.
Body. Blood. Womb.
Three offerings she swore to a Goddess who no longer walks the earth.
Three offerings she will have to give freely, or watch the world drown in wolves.
She will try to run.
He will let her.
She will try to kill him.
He will die smiling, because the curse won’t let him stay dead until she loves him enough to break it.
This is not a love story.
This is a claiming.
This is the sound of a five-thousand-year hunger finally sinking its teeth into the only throat it was ever meant for.
Dark. Feral. Inevitable.

He raised my arms, pinning my hands above my head.

"Tell me you didn’t fuck him," he demanded through clenched teeth.

"Go fuck yourself, you son of a bitch!" I snapped, trying to break free.

"Say it!" he growled, gripping my chin with one hand.

"Do you think I’m a slut?"

"Is that a no?"

"Go to hell!"

"Good. That’s all I needed to know," he said, yanking up my black sports bra with one hand, exposing my breasts and sending a surge of adrenaline through my body.

"What the hell are you doing?" I panted as he stared at my breasts with a satisfied smirk.

He ran a finger over one of the marks he’d left just below one of my nipples.

The bastard was admiring the marks he’d left on me?

"Wrap your legs around me," he ordered.

He leaned down just enough to take my breast into his mouth, sucking hard on my nipple. I bit my lower lip to stifle a moan as he bit down, making me arch my chest toward him.

"I’m letting go of your hands. Don’t you dare stop me."

Bastard. Arrogant. Completely irresistible. The exact type of man Ellie swore she’d never get involved with again. But when her best friend’s brother returns to the city, she finds herself dangerously close to succumbing to her wildest desires.

She’s irritating, smart, hot, completely crazy—and she’s driving Ethan Morgan crazy too.

What started as a simple game now haunts him. He can’t get her out of his head—but he won’t let anyone into his heart again.

Some people wear masks. Perhaps their wounds are so ugly that their greatest desire is to avoid looking at them in the reflection of the mirror.

What do they hide behind them?

He needs her to change his image, while she needs him to stand out.

Amid distrust and anger, Gravity and Ashton face an even more disturbing feeling: resentment.

They haven’t forgotten what happened, but even though they won’t admit it, they are drawn to each other.

It’s not just their stories that haunt them, but the secrets they keep lead them to live under a web of lies.

It’s all about cause and effect, and the past always comes back to claim its price.

Stand up and strip now !” He ordered, and without hesitation, I stripped off my clothes. I stood completely naked in front of him, my dick proudly pointing in his direction.

“Are you sure you are ready to do this? Once you begin, you won't stop until I cum and I want you to swallow every drop of my sperm. Understood?

“Y…yes, Master.” I breathed.

“Good boy, now suck.” He ordered.
