Summary

Love Was the Most Dangerous Thing is not a love story that promises safety.It is a story about attraction that feels like fate—and slowly reveals itself as a warning.Aria believes she understands love. She’s careful, self-aware, and grounded in a life she’s built with intention. Then she meets Sebastian—a man whose intensity feels like connection, whose attention feels like devotion, and whose certainty feels intoxicating. He sees her in ways no one ever has. He listens. He notices. He stays.At first, it feels like everything she’s been missing.But love doesn’t always arrive loudly. Sometimes it slips in quietly—through concern disguised as care, affection that slowly turns into control, and devotion that begins to demand ownership. As Aria’s world subtly reshapes itself around Sebastian, the line between intimacy and manipulation blurs, leaving her questioning her instincts, her boundaries, and eventually herself.When Ethan—a man from her past who knows her without trying to possess her—unexpectedly reenters her life, Aria is forced to confront a truth she’s been avoiding: not all love is safe, and not all intensity is passion.Love Was the Most Dangerous Thing is an emotionally charged psychological romance about red flags we ignore, warnings we explain away, and the courage it takes to reclaim yourself when love asks for too much. It explores how easily affection can become a cage—and how choosing yourself can be the most difficult, powerful act of all.Perfect for readers who love:Deep emotional tensionSlow-burn, psychologically complex romanceStories about self-worth, boundaries, and emotional survivalLove that feels real, messy, and dangerously believableThis is not a story about falling in love.It’s a story about recognizing when love is no longer freedom—and choosing to walk away before it costs everything.

    The contract said it all, feelings were forbidden. 
My ex husband left me pregnant and penniless. 
When my best friend tells me about a once-in-a-lifetime job opening to be a personal assistant to the city's most eligible billionaire, I decide to go. After all, I have no health insurance and a baby on the way. 
When I get there, I sign what I think is a NDA. 
That's when the mistake is realized. 
I just signed a contract stating that I agreed to fake marry Reed for one year and the only way I can get out of it is by paying an obscene amount of money. Which I don't have. 
No other options, I decide to go through with it. 
Now I'm living in his apartment, wearing his ring, but carrying someone else's baby. 
I've fallen for my fake husband and I want this relationship to be real. 
Problem is, he still doesn't know that I'm pregnant, and I don't know how to tell him. 
If you love fake romances with swoon-worthy heroes, you’ll love The Contract with the Billionaire.

    Pan and Noah's story continues... 
For every problem Pan solves, he makes three more, but accidentally turning Noah–his only connection to magic and the man who has been helping him–into a selkie might be the worst. Now he needs to earn Noah’s trust, and Pan has no idea where to start. He’s a god; people are supposed to beg him for forgiveness and aid. 
Then a group of drak start following him around, thinking that he’ll be able to help them recover their ability to breathe fire. The last thing anyone needs is shapeshifting fire-breathing cats. But when they offer their prayers, Pan can’t refuse. 
Noah should have realized he couldn’t trust a word that fell off Pan’s tongue before kissing him. Now, he kind of needs him because there are no other living selkies, and he doesn’t know what to do. Not that he even wants to be a selkie, but the coat is now his, and only his. As much as he wants to run away from all of this, the mythos aren’t going anywhere, and helping Pan gives him something to do. 
The trouble is, the more he is around the powerless god, the easier it becomes to forgive him because he really is trying to help his people, even if it is only so they will worship him again. At least this time, Noah understands Pan only cares about himself. 
Or at least he thought he understood…

    It was such a good idea on paper. Ginger Barnes would chauffeur her mother’s dear friend, fierce floral competitor Iffy Bigelow, to the world-famous Philadelphia Flower Show in time to perfect that day’s “Sew What?” entry. In return, Gin and mother Cynthia would tour the magnificent displays with scarcely anybody else in the aisles. Heaven! 
No such luck. Iffy gets herself strangled behind the Tastee Freeze booth, and all hell breaks loose. While Iffy’s co-competitors pretend not to be overjoyed that their cantankerous longtime rival is out of the picture, Cynthia Struve is raising a ruckus. The police favor the victim’s mentally unstable niece for the crime, but Gin’s mother is having none of it. “You solved a murder for your husband,” she reminds the amateur sleuth she raised. “Now you can solve one for me.”
