Summary
“Your name is Dick?”
He nodded. “Richard, but no one ever calls me that.”
She raised an eyebrow and looked at him through her dark bangs. “Got a middle name you could go by?”
Dick shrugged. “It’s a family name. After my uncle.”
“Do they call him Dick?”
“No.” A shadow flickered across his face. Then, he seemingly pulled himself together and beamed at her yet again, leaning forward slightly. “What do they call you?”
“Melinda.” She offered him her hand. “Melinda Munroe.”The small town, bookstore, slow-burn romance nobody asked for and I'm going to write anyway.

Summary
When Sabrina’s life falls apart she has a break down, sleeps with a mysterious woman in a hotel bar, and dyes her hair pink- not in that order. In an effort to give her some stability, her Aunt Hilda insist that she come work at her romance only bookstore, Spellbound Books, despite Sabrina hating romance novels.
In an effort to finish her latest novel, Lilith Lethe, a bestselling romance novelist with writers block, takes up her long time friend's offer to stay in the apartment above Spellbound Books. But she can't stop thinking about the amazing one night stand she had with the most aggravating girl- the one who insulted her livelihood yet inspired her now most popular villain.
“We do not like each other,” Lilith said and Sabrina snorted indelicately. “But we are rather good in bed together. You can’t deny that. I enjoy sleeping with you, Sabrina. And sleeping with you has helped me write so I propose that we continue fucking each other. Friends with benefits, if you will.”
“Except we’re not friends,” said Sabrina.
“No, we’re not,” agreed Lilith, “Enemies with benefits then.”

Summary
You just want coffee? she asked, wary.
For now, he said, smiling. No soul required.Sivvy thought she'd finally found peace in Hell -- a cozy bookshop café tucked between the chaos of Cannibal Town and the neon sprawl of Vee Town. But owning land without an Overlord's protection paints a target on her back.
When the infamous Radio Demon walks into her shop asking questions and offering coffee-fueled conversation, Sivvy doesn't know whether to be flattered or afraid. As pressure from the Vees escalates, her only hope of survival may be aligning herself with the very monster she's trying not to trust.
A slow-burn Hazbin Hotel romance featuring political tension, cozy coffee, territorial Overlords, and the dangerous charm of Alastor himself.
No soul deals (yet). Just coffee.

Summary
Something was wrong.
He sat up.
A dull ache threaded through his back and shoulders, as if the mattress had not yielded properly beneath him. His skin felt too sensitive — each touch of the bedsheets a quiet assault. No internal fire of power, no lurking whispers of souls or sin. No darkness curled at his fingertips.
Sebastian stood, bare feet against the cold floor, and immediately felt the loss: his strength was gone. Where once he moved with inhuman fluidity, he now stood on trembling legs.
His eyes snapped to the mirror.
Gone were the faint crimson embers that used to glow in his irises. In their place: plain, human eyes. A rich brown, but unremarkable. His skin had a pallor to it, but no otherworldly sheen. He looked tired. Vulnerable.
Human.
***
One day, Sebastian wakes up to find himself human. Without his demonic abilities, how will he continue serving Ciel? More importantly, will he still want to?

Summary
Kaveh’s tattoos are praised by celebrities and magazines alike, but somewhere along the path to his success, the meaning bled out of his art. Then, after ten long years, Alhaitham rides back into his life on a motorcycle - rugged, quick-witted, and infuriatingly unforgettable.
With love laced into the ink Kaveh had long since stopped believing in, something beautiful finally begins to take shape once more.
It was too immaculate, really. The sleek countertops, glass partitions, and impossibly white walls gleamed under soft, ambient lighting like they’d never known the comfort of a chaos Kaveh had lived with his entire life. Every surface was made of the kind of material that rejected fingerprints and resisted clutter - sanitized, both physically and emotionally.
Though the district his new studio was in was posh and high-end, it was surprisingly devoid of a single decent coffee shop. Perhaps the elitist locals had never actually tasted good coffee and simply mistook bitterness in a designer cup for depth - much like their conversations.
So far, Kaveh had choked down three lattes and a macchiato that tasted like lukewarm regret with a splash of oat milk.
