Imagine Cinderella, but the prince has had a crush on her since high school, and they end up having a marriage of convenience where he gets to crush on her in close proximity. Yeah. Welcome to my new book loves. ***** When her grandmother offers her one final escape from her cruel, manipulative family, Leilani Mayfield doesn’t hesitate. The condition? She must marry before her 28th birthday—or lose the inheritance that could finally buy her freedom. With just two weeks left, her options are slim… until fate drops Desmond Lawrence into her lap. Her high school nemesis. Her college mystery crush. And now… her only way out. Turns out, Desmond has inheritance strings of his own—and grandmothers who’ve conspired to bring them together. What begins as a marriage of convenience soon becomes a ticking time bomb of secrets, old rivalries, and unresolved tension. What Leilani doesn’t know? Desmond’s had feelings for her for years. What Desmond doesn’t expect? Falling harder now that she’s his wife. Between a power-hungry brother, a jealous half-sister, a conniving stepmother, and truths neither are ready to face, one thing becomes clear: This pact was never about payback. It was always about them. And the feelings they’re not supposed to have? Yeah, those are getting harder to ignore. ***** Link up with me on Instagram: @timcarvie.

Title: The Ten Crowns and the Woman They Couldn’t Kill ‎Tagline: Ten kings. Ten kingdoms. One woman who could ruin them all. ‎‎ ‎When Aria wakes in the royal palace, she is told she’s a guest. ‎But guests don’t have their doors locked from the outside. ‎And guests aren’t summoned, without warning, to stand before ten kings at once. ‎ ‎Each of them rules a kingdom unlike the others — frostbitten wastelands, sun-soaked deserts, seas of gold, forests that breathe — and each looks at her as though she’s already theirs. ‎Some want her hand. ‎Some want her power. ‎Some want her dead before she can learn the truth. ‎ ‎Because Aria is no ordinary prisoner. She’s the missing piece in a prophecy all ten kings swore to bury — the one that says a single woman will unite their crowns… or burn their kingdoms to ash. ‎ ‎Trapped in a deadly court where seduction is as sharp as a blade, Aria must survive poison-laced banquets, whispers in the dark, and a growing hunger in her own heart. ‎And as alliances shift like sand beneath her feet, she begins to realize the most dangerous thing in the palace isn’t the kings themselves… ‎ ‎It’s what she’s becoming. ‎ ‎Forbidden romance. Political intrigue. Slow-burn seduction with ten very different men — and a mystery that could turn desire into war. ‎If you think you know who the villain is, you’re already wrong.

Jian Yu was once the sharpest Alpha CEO in the modern world, feared in business and admired in power. His life ended in the most unremarkable way—poisoned quietly in his sleep. But death did not give him peace. Instead, he opened his eyes in a realm of starlight, where a mysterious system offered him a deal: survive five different worlds, and the truth behind his death would be revealed. The worlds could not be more different. In one, swords and cultivation decide who ascends to immortality. In another, an empire hides treachery behind silk and gold. There is a world of ruthless mafia clans, a future city ruled by machines and genetic codes, and even a peaceful-looking town that hides dangerous secrets. In every place, Jian Yu meets him—Bai Ye. Sometimes a rival, sometimes an ally, sometimes a lover. Always an Omega who defies expectation, never as fragile as he seems, and always able to shake Jian Yu’s carefully guarded heart. To escape the system’s grip, Jian Yu must use all his wit and strength. Yet as his journey continues, he begins to wonder if he is chasing freedom… or if what he truly wants has been Bai Ye all along.
