I Married My Ex-Fiancé’s Useless Billionaire Uncle For Revenge

My engagement ended in humiliation. One moment, I was the bride-to-be. Next, my fiancé was slipping a ring onto another woman’s finger—nope, not just anyone, my half-sister! And the whole city watched. So I did the unthinkable. I kissed the one man I was never supposed to touch—his aloof, very hot, useless uncle. Dominic Fletcher. It was supposed to be revenge. A scandal to wipe away my shame. Until he stole my bra—and with it, my senses… and my already fragile heart. “Give it back!” I demanded, reaching for my bra, but he only lifted it higher. “I’ll keep this as a memento, Kitten,” he murmured, eyes dark, voice dangerously seductive. But Dominic Fletcher was far from useless. Behind the nonchalant façade was a ruthless power only I had glimpsed. And now, he wants to help me take my revenge— “Marry me, sweetness,” Dominic rasped, gaze sharp as steel. “I’ll make everyone who offended you a foot mat. What do you say?” How could I say no? I’d do anything to make that worthless, piece-of-shit scumbag ex lose sleep for the rest of his life and become his worst nightmare. So I said yes—to his uncle. I became his aunt-in-law. Then I returned, victorious and unbroken. My family pleaded for me to forgive them. My ex-fiancé fell to his knees, clutching my hand. “Let’s start again, Harper,” he begged. “You’re the only one I cherish.” I stared at him icily. “Excuse me, boy. Do I know you?”

My Stepbrother Wants Me

EXCERPT✨ “You’ve never had sex before?” Julian asked, disbelief flickering in his eyes. Catherine hesitated, then nodded, staring at the floor instead of him. He bit his lower lip, trying to rein in the thoughts crowding his mind. Goodness, she was too innocent for her own good. “So all you did with your previous boyfriends were just kisses and smooches?” She immediately stood, her cheeks flushed. “There are no boyfriends,” she blurted. “I’ve never even been kissed. Please don’t laugh at me.” Laugh? Hell no. Julian wasn’t laughing. He was fighting the urge to pull her close. Knowing she’d never been touched only made his hunger worse. She didn’t realize he’d moved until his breath brushed her ear, his voice dropping low and dangerous. “Catherine, just say the word and I’ll show you what it means to be touched by a man.” Her heart stuttered in her chest and he could hear every beat. ~~~ Catherine Brown thought moving in with her mother’s new husband couldn’t be harder until she met the cold, arrogant and sinfully attractive Julian Vaughn, her stepbrother. He’s everything she should stay away from, off-limits and untouchable. He hates her, teases her and gets under her skin everyday but when his anger turns into something darker and hungrier, when he looks at her like he wants to ruin her innocence, Catherine realizes danger has a new name. And no matter how hard she tries, she can’t stop wanting the one man she’s not supposed to have.

The Chain of Moonblood

In a world where magic flows through the veins of the Beastmen and humans are nothing more than fragile prey, the line between survival and death is razor-thin. Lysandra Elowen has lived all her life in the quiet simplicity of her village, believing the tales of dragons, wolves, and other monstrous beasts are just myths. That is, until the night the northern wolves descend—fast, ruthless, and merciless. In a blur of claws, teeth, and unnatural strength, her home is torn apart, her family scattered, and she is dragged into a world she never imagined could exist. The Auction House of the North is a realm of fear and fascination, where humans are displayed like jewels and Beastmen flaunt their power, both magical and physical, to assert dominance. It is here that Lysandra first encounters Veyrath Dranevor, the Dragon Emperor himself—his golden eyes burning like molten sunlight, his human form concealing an undeniable, bestial majesty. Unlike the wolves who captured her, he does not strike with immediate violence. Instead, he watches… and waits. Bound by chains and the rules of a world she does not understand, Lysandra must navigate a realm of predators far beyond anything she has known. Each glance from Veyrath is both a threat and a temptation; each display of his power a reminder of the fragility of her existence. And yet, amidst the fear and bloodshed, something dangerous stirs—a fascination that neither fully understands. In a kingdom where humans are mere property and Beastmen rule with fire and claw, survival is not enough. Lysandra must learn to read the unspoken rules, to endure the cruel tests of magic, and to survive the gaze of a creature whose heart is as untamed as his bloodline. But as Veyrath’s interest in her grows, she discovers that even in a world of domination, desire and power can intertwine in ways she never imagined. Will Lysandra Elowen be just another prize in the Dragon Emperor’s collection—or will the bond that forms between predator and prey change the fate of two worlds forever?

Pampered by the Cold Mafia Boss

Every girl dreams of a hero — someone who will appear when she’s at her lowest; a man who will change her fate. He will be strong, protective, and powerful enough to shield her from the cruel world. He will make her feel safe, cherished, and loved. But what if that man isn’t a knight in shining armor? What if he is the most feared Mafia Lord in the city? I never believed in fairy tales. My life was ordinary — until the night I lost everything. The man I trusted, the one I thought loved me, shattered my heart with betrayal. And just when I thought things couldn’t get worse, I found myself caught in a web of danger far greater than heartbreak. That was the night he found me. Adrian Deluca. Cold. Ruthless. Untouchable. A name whispered in fear. A man who rules the underworld with an iron fist. He was the kind of danger most people ran from, but for some reason, he decided to save me. I didn’t ask for his protection. I didn’t ask to be pulled into his world. But from the moment his dark eyes locked onto mine, I knew my life would never be the same again. He says I belong to him. That he’ll protect me, no matter the cost. But the deeper I fall into his world, the more I wonder—did he save me from the devil, or is he the devil himself? Because the most dangerous thing about Adrian Deluca isn’t his power, his wealth, or the way he makes my heart race... It’s the fact that, despite everything, I might just fall for him. Do he love me? Why did he even save me? Why does my heart always beat so fast whenever I’m with him?
