Prom is supposed to be about dresses, dates, music, and one perfect night. Instead, the senior fundraiser turns into the biggest event on campus when a masked Spider-Man starts hanging upside down at the Kiss or Slap booth. Ace Calloway is confident, shameless, and way too good at entertaining a crowd. Behind the mask, he's turned a stupid fundraiser into everyone's favorite excuse to cause chaos. Then Y/N gets nominated by their friends. One choice. One ridiculous moment. An entire crowd watching. And suddenly, the harmless little game becomes the kind of moment nobody stops talking about.
When Y/N's car dies in the middle of nowhere during a violent storm, there's nowhere to go except the only place for miles: Kane's Garage. He fixes her car without asking many questions and makes it clear that once the storm passes, she should leave. Except the storm doesn't pass. And neither does the problem with her car. Days turn into nights above the garage. Ryder keeps finding another reason the car isn't ready. The town has secrets. Ryder has even more. And the longer Y/N stays, the harder it becomes to tell whether her broken car is keeping her hereโ or whether something else is.
One Halloween party. One stupid decision. One rule: keep it casual. Dean Di Laurentis and Y/N were never supposed to become anything more than a bad decision made after too many drinks and too little common sense. No dating. No feelings. No expectations. Easy enough. What was supposed to happen once starts happening againโlate nights, random sleepovers, teasing texts, excuses to be alone, and the same โthis doesn't mean anythingโ conversation every time things get a little too close. So they keep pretending it's nothing. Because as long as nobody says it out loud, nothing has to change.
She owns the hotel. He has no idea. Y/N Sinclair is tired of being treated differently because of her name, so she checks into one of her own luxury hotels under the radarโno assistant, no special treatment, just another guest. Then there's Ronan Voss. The cocky, tattooed receptionist who flirts with her like she's anyone else. And honestly? She kind of likes it. Until he finds out who she's actually checking in with.
Y/N has everything people spend their entire lives chasing. At thirty, she's the powerful CEO of her own company, born into old money and living a life of private jets, luxury cars, exclusive parties, designer clothes, and people who know exactly who she is before she's even introduced herself. Now she's building the house to match it allโa massive private estate, designed from the ground up exactly the way she wants it. And then there's Weston Cole. Twenty-five. Construction worker. Dusty boots, rough hands, crooked grin, and absolutely no interest in being impressed by Sophia's money or status. At first, he's just another guy working on her house. Then he starts teasing her. She gives it right back. A few jokes become inside jokes. Casual conversations turn into lingering ones. The flirting gets bolder, the looks last longer, and somehow Weston becomes the person Y/N starts noticing the second she steps onto the property. And the longer the house takes to build, the harder it becomes to pretend the tension between them is just part of the job. Some things aren't meant to be built. Some things just happen.
She came to Sin City to forget one man. Instead, she caught the attention of the one man who never gets attached. Ryder Steele lives for attention, temptation, and bad decisionsโand Y/N quickly becomes his favorite kind of trouble. What starts onstage doesnโt stay there, and the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to keep things casual. Ryder has always been good at keeping things simple. But Y/N might be the first person who makes simple feel impossible. Maybe itโs just a game. Maybe itโs something more. Either way, someoneโs going to lose control.
Ace Donovan is the Hockey golden boyโthe hockey captain, campus favorite, and professional troublemaker. Everyone knows the reputation: parties, hookups, bad grades, and a smile that somehow gets him out of everything. Then Y/N becomes the one thing he can't charm his way through. With his eligibility on the line, Ace gets assigned a tutor who isn't impressed by the captain status, the popularity, or the carefully maintained reputation. What starts as forced study sessions quickly becomes a constant battle of sarcasm, teasing, frustration, and unexpected chemistry. Ace is used to people wanting his attention. Y/N is far more interested in making him earn hers. And for the first time, the guy everyone thinks they know has someone looking past the jersey, the parties, and the reputation.
Heโs her best friend. Sheโs his favorite person. Heโs also Briarโs biggest Playboy. For years, Dean and Y/N have had the kind of friendship where nothing is off-limitsโuntil tiny things start feeling different. Not suddenly. Not dramatically. Just little moments neither of them thinks twice aboutโฆ until โjust friendsโ starts becoming harder to define.
Y/N finally lands the fashion opportunity she's been waiting forโa major campaign with Adrian Vale, one of the industry's biggest names. Then she gets another job. Photographing Spider. The world's most mysterious masked superstar. To everyone else, Adrian Vale and Spider are two completely different men. Different faces. Different worlds. No connection whatsoever. But behind the camera, things start getting complicated. And the closer Y/N gets to both men, the more familiar certain little details begin to feel. And Y/N might be getting dangerously close to figuring it out.
She was just a girl singing a VANTA cover with her band on TikTok. He was just another bored night of scrolling. Then Riven Saint heard her voice. One video becomes the inspiration for a songโflirty, reckless and a little too specific. He writes about her without knowing her name, her story, or whether heโll ever meet her. The song drops. It goes insanely viral. Now the internet is hunting for the mystery girl behind the lyrics, while Y/N has no idea that the biggest song of VANTAโs career is about her. And when they finally meet? Sheโll have to decide whatโs more dangerousโVANTA himself, or the fact that he already wrote a song about her.
