Bikinis in the Holy State
We were on a field trip to the Holy State of Aram, when the prom queen, Susie Lambert, complained about the hot weather and called for a bikini party.
My boyfriend Ken insisted on bringing the whole class along just to satisfy her whim, even though I warned him, "That's against the law, and visitors who are found guilty will be remanded, if not killed…"
He slapped me across the face and snapped, "Don't try to scare us! You're just jealous that Susie's got a nice bod, and you don't want to see us being happy together!"
Everyone else in the class roared in approval too. "Exactly! You already took Ken away from Susie, and you'd now come up with such bullshit!"
I was furious and frustrated, but for their sake, I spoke to Mrs. Dent, the class teacher.
She scolded everyone when she realized what they were doing and called off the bikini party.
However, Susie got so upset that she ran off alone and flaunted her bikini at the beach anyway, and she was caught before being executed as a spy by zealots.
Ken blamed it all on me. In the middle of the night, he sneaked into my home and set fire to it with gasoline, killing my entire family.
Afterward, the entire class testified on his behalf to create an alibi.
But I opened my eyes again and found myself returning to that day when Susie goaded everyone to join her bikini party.
This time, I simply smiled. "Go ahead, enjoy yourselves all you want!"

Mistaken Name, Perfect Match
My boyfriend's assistant, who also came from the same university as him but a lower grade, has an incredibly similar name to mine. While mine is Marissa Parker, hers is Melissa Barker.
At the party our colleagues are throwing to celebrate the end of my unmarried life with my boyfriend, Liam Yarrow, Melissa once again mixes up our names.
Everyone is cheering and joking around as they unfurl the banner they had prepared, and one person reads the wording out loud.
"Congratulations to Liam Yarrow and Melissa Barker! May you two be happy and blissful forever!"
In an instant, the originally noisy room falls silent.
Melissa's timid voice then rings out. "Sorry, Marissa. I accidentally made a mistake again."
Instead of answering, I turn to look at Liam.
Liam's brow doesn't even wrinkle in the slightest as he subconsciously assures her, "It's just a minor matter. She won't mind."
Following that, he gets up, walks to Melissa, and stops in front of her, placing me opposite him.
With this action, his figure completely blocks her from my sight, and like many times before, he shoots me a warning look.
"Marissa, it's just a banner. Mel didn't mean to mess it up. At the end of the day, everyone already knows that you and I are the stars tonight, so don't dwell on this, okay?"
He calls me by my full first name, while Melissa gets an affectionate nickname.
Can his feelings be any more obvious?
I slowly release my grip on the balloon I was holding.
"Alright, I won't."
I will never dwell on anything to do with him again.

***
He bit me at a frat party I only attended to get over my ex. Three days later, he was sitting across from me at my mother's engagement dinner – and then standing at the foot of my bed unbuckling his belt at 1:47 AM.

It's working.
But his father is worse.

A jealous she-wolf who feels every orgasm through a broken bond.
An Alpha uncle who considers my existence a death sentence.
And a law that says the punishment for a human knowing about wolves is execution.
Knox claims my body. Dominic reads my soul. Both will burn this family down before they let me go.
And I can't stop going back.
Contains: werewolf shifters, stepbrother/stepfather, MC bikers, over-the-knee discipline, bite bonds, Level 2 shifts that make him BIGGER in every way, and a mother who never looks at the right moment.

Off Camera
Connie Reid doesn't date athletes. She doesn't talk about her past. And she definitely doesn't play hockey anymore.
She built her new life at Crestfield University carefully — warm smile, sharp instincts, a matchmaking reputation that keeps everyone else's love lives running smoothly while her own heart stays locked away. It works perfectly. Until the university board decides her skills belong to them.
The deal is simple and non-negotiable: fake a relationship with Kyrian Maddox — Crestfield's most controversial hockey recruit — on a live reality dating show, or watch her most painful secret broadcast to every student on campus.
Kyrian Maddox doesn't explain himself to anyone. He arrived at Crestfield already carrying a scandal he didn't cause and a reputation he can't escape. The PR arrangement forced on him is just another thing he has no choice but to endure. The girl they've paired him with is warm, clever and reads people like open books.
He finds that deeply suspicious.
Off camera they're strangers who tolerate each other in cold silence. On camera they're convincing enough to trend. But the longer they share a house, an ice rink and the weight of secrets neither will speak aloud, the harder it becomes to remember where the performance ends.
Then the boy who destroyed Connie's life walks into the show house smiling like no time has passed. And everything she buried starts clawing its way back to the surface.
Kyrian notices the shift in her before she can hide it. What he doesn't know yet is that protecting her might cost him everything he came to Crestfield to rebuild.
Some performances become real. Some secrets refuse to stay buried. And some people are worth burning everything down for.

Frequently Asked Questions
I just got back from vacation and actually felt a little disappointed with most 'best beach reads' lists. They all mention the same rom-coms or domestic thrillers, but if you really want to relax, you need something that doesn't demand too much brainpower yet still pulls you in. Elin Hilderbrand's Nantucket novels are the gold standard, obviously, but I found 'The Hotel Nantucket' especially breezy—it's got just enough drama and setting to feel immersive without any real stress.
For something a bit different, I always throw in an Agatha Christie paperback. 'Death on the Nile' or 'Evil Under the Sun' literally take place on vacation and the puzzles are engaging but never emotionally draining. It’s a different kind of escape, one that feels classic and clever rather than just fluffy. I noticed a lot of people at my resort were reading Colleen Hoover, but that seems like the opposite of relaxing to me—way too much angst for the beach.
