Diffidence Obedience Atonement Smythe is a grad student who prefers to never use his full name. Ever. He’s finishing a Ph.D. in Extemporaneous Magic, and his research project for his dissertation is closing the Rift between worlds that he accidentally opened when he was thirteen. Obviously, caffeine is an important part of his life.

Ergi Thusol-Von Klempt is a half-orc who works in the infamous Goblin Market, selling magical pastries to those who need them – or, in Diff’s case, just want them. He’s got bubblegum-pink hair, lovely lilac skin, and a smile like sunshine, at least if you ask Diff. Ergi is intrigued by his frazzled, but handsome, frequent customer.

The Goblin Market is a magical space that anyone can find if they truly need it, and most people visit once or twice if at all. Diff is there several times a week as he untangles the layered mysteries of the Rift, and has had years to develop his crush on Ergi.

In this cozy urban fantasy, Diff and Ergi find some solutions to life’s problems in the Market, along with the courage to talk to each other.

Diff might even find a future beyond the Rift that has consumed over a decade of his life.

Release Date: November 27, 2025

Genre: Romantic Thriller/ New Adult

  • Rivals to lovers

  • Toxic attraction
  • Secrets and lies

“Sexy. Unputdownable. Viciously funny.”

A razor-sharp romantic mystery about money, mayhem, and the price of ambition — perfect for fans of Nightshade and Legally Blonde.

They say all fortunes come with a curse. I should’ve believed them.

A few days ago, I was just Vera: law student, scholarship kid, newest intern at the prestigious Saidi firm. I had plans, ambition, and the perfect date lined up with the campus golden boy.
Then I woke up to find a suitcase full of money at the foot of my bed—and a note. I had seventy-two hours to spend it all and leave no trace… or risk losing everything.

At first, I thought it was a joke. Then strange things started happening. Secret clubs I was somehow connected to. Questions I couldn’t answer. A high-society family with a dark past. And then there were them:
Bastian Saidi—my boss’s infuriating, dangerously magnetic nephew, whose smile hides more secrets than his family fortune. And Enzo Woods—charming, elusive, and far too good at making trouble look beautiful.

Somewhere between expensive dinners, sleepless nights, and impossible choices, I started to realise the truth: this isn’t a prank. It’s a test—one that could destroy me, or make me into something else entirely.
Because in this world, money is never free, and love might be the most expensive thing of all… after the price we pay for our lies, of course.

This sharp, darkly hilarious romantic thriller is perfect for readers who love morally grey love interests, rivals with insane chemistry, high-stakes secrets, billionaire drama, and heroines who are a little too smart for their own good.

SAGE

I ran to disappear. Providence was supposed to be a quiet and untouched place. A fresh start. But then I met Reich Davidian.
Nothing escapes his gaze. Every word from his lips is a blade. And even as instinct begs me to turn away, something in me keeps finding its way back to him.

But I know that every storm hides a calm at its core. And I think I’ve found his.

The only question is if it will be the end of me.

REICH

I was made to destroy monsters. But she isn’t one of them. Instead, she’s the complication that could ruin everything.
Sage Holquinn is untamed, broken, and reckless enough to trespass on my property without realizing whose territory she’s stepped into. I should’ve turned her away. But distance is no longer an option.
She thinks she’s escaping the darkness.
She doesn’t realize she’s running straight into mine.

He’s been part of Solace all along, working for the Syndicate, searching for me for years. But I’m not the girl he once loved. Marco’s pretty prison turned me into something darker, something that speaks to ghosts and has a hunger for revenge.

The Volkovs are planning something big, the Syndicate is crumbling from betrayal, and someone is playing both sides. With Aurora at my side and the Avids rising in rebellion, we have one chance to strike back.

Then a century-old secret surfaces that changes everything and has me questioning who to trust, what I’m fighting for, and who I even am. What if every choice brings me closer to becoming exactly what Marco wanted me to be—the demon they all fear?

Now I need help from the dead … before I end up joining them.

When her boss decides Eliza must host her and her brother for Thanksgiving and participate in a live video, her career and personal relationships are thrown into chaos. Worse, her boss’s brother turns out to be a man who briefly crossed her path. Crazy twist of fate? Definitely. The fact he’s the definition of a sexy silver fox isn’t helping.

Eighteen months after losing his wife, Richard Jones is still trying to move forward. Losing himself in his career as an airline pilot is no longer filling the void, and all work with almost no play isn’t a life. When his sister insists that he join her at influencer Eliza Merritt’s mountain home for Thanksgiving, it sounds better than being alone. But when he discovers Eliza is a woman he happened to meet by chance…and flirted with…his interest heightens since something about her online persona isn’t quite matching what’s behind the camera.

Secrets, truths, and modern-day mass media meet under one roof for Thanksgiving in this contemporary twist on the holiday film, Christmas in Connecticut!

There is but one lesson humans are slow to learn and quick to forget: the fae lie . . .

When half-fae Bronwyn is caught fleeing the scene of a robbery, a Crusader arrow finds its mark. But as her roguish partner-in-crime Eoin tends to her wounds, a spark between them replenishes Bronwyn’s magic—revealing her as part-Siren. And quite possibly cursed.

Meanwhile, word is spreading of the two thieves and the illegal magic they left behind them. To escape discovery, Bronwyn and Eoin accept a dangerous yet tempting job: a wedding heist that leads them into the depths of the fae realm.

But August, the merciless vampire lord of the Selene Court, is used to getting what—and who—he wants.

In a land of deception, seduction, and meddling gods, Bronwyn puts her life on the line, only to discover temptation may be her undoing. And time is running out for her to make a choice, before she’s stuck on the wrong side of a looming war.

The Curse of the Siren is a steamy, plot-driven romantasy with magic, political intrigue, and two tempting MMCs.
