    Summary

    Lottie Saenger has everything a Southern woman is supposed to want. Old money, a mansion overlooking the Mississippi, and a handsome fiancé from one of Mississippi's most powerful families. She would rather be dead.

    Five years ago, Ben Solo, the poor boy she loved with a viciousness, disappeared without saying goodbye. Now, on the night of her engagement party to Poe Dameron, a mysterious oil executive named Kylo Ren purchases the cemetery at the center of her family's marriage agreement.

    When Lottie finds him standing over the nameless grave where she and Ben once hid from the world, she realizes Kylo Ren is no stranger but rather Ben, returned richer, meaner, and determined to reclaim every piece of land--and every piece of Lottie--he was once told he could never have. Caught between a respectable marriage and the boy who knows every rotten part of her soul, Lottie must decide whether to remain the obedient daughter her family created or surrender to the monstrous love that's haunted her for years.

    Summary

    Dear Hot Bread God,

    Please put me out of my misery and shove your yeasty fist up my pussy.

    Signed,

    Your dough, waiting to be pounded.

     

    Um. Too desperate?

    ---

    Rey is thirty, terminally single, and has been on enough bad Hinge dates to last several lifetimes. One evening, the Instagram algorithm delivers her something unexpected: a pair of extraordinary hands making bread, and a voice that tells her she's being oh so good.

    She doesn't follow him. She's not going to be caught being horny on main.

    She does, eventually, subscribe to his OnlyFans.

    What follows is a completely rational series of decisions that leads her, one Saturday morning, across an international border, to eat pizza with a stranger from the internet.

    Just lunch. Just to suss things out.

    Summary

    Looking back on it all, as another inch of his cock pressed inside, it was ironic that this had started because of 'safety.'

    But that was neither here nor there.

    Summary

    Ben Solo is Canada's star hockey player-brilliant, volatile, and ruthless on the ice. The pressure to win is constant, his career meticulously controlled by coaches, contracts, and expectations. There's no room for mistakes. No room for distractions.

    Then there's Rey-the coach's daughter. Sharp-tongued, fiercely independent, and completely off-limits. She's grown up in arenas and locker rooms, knows the game as well as any player, and refuses to be treated like something fragile-or forbidden.

    Their attraction is instant. Dangerous. Impossible.

    With an unbreakable rule hanging over them and careers on the line, Ben and Rey begin a relationship that has to stay hidden at all costs. Every stolen moment risks exposure. Every glance on the ice could give them away. And if the truth comes out, it won't just shatter reputations-it will destroy trust, family, and everything they've built.

    On the ice, Ben plays to win.
    Off it, he's risking everything.

    Inspired by Heated Rivalry.

    Summary

    A year ago on Christmas Eve, Kylo Ren (in truth, Ben Solo) left Rey a note in their London flat saying he had to run out for a quick work assignment but would be back. He failed to do so. After four months of waiting, Rey - who has serious abandonment issues - decides it's time to pick up the shattered pieces of her life and move on. What happens when Ben and Rey unexpectedly run into each other the following December at a New York City gala? Can what was broken be rebuilt? And what secrets will be revealed?

    UPDATE DEC. 24, 2024 -- I got to thinking about this story from a year ago. In particular about the characters and where they would be today. I was inspired to write a couple of new chapters to satisfy my own curiosity. I hope you will enjoy them as much as I've enjoyed revisiting the tale.

    UPDATE DEC. 5, 2025 -- Did I say a couple of new chapters? I mean a handful ... three year to date, and another couple to go. If you've hung with me this far on this story, I appreciate you. I'm having fun with it, and I hope you will, too!

    UPDATE FEB. 2, 2026 -- Done and done! Thanks for being on this journey with me. It was fun!
