THE SPINNERS' GUILD, an adult romantic fantasy

#QuestPit #A #F #RF #Q
A violin hidden behind a web. Text says: An agent's guide to THE SPINNERS' GUILD DEAHNNA’s music gifts her the power to Spin listeners under her spell, compelling them to reveal secrets she can use to protect her city. After two years spent abroad as a diplomat, she uncovers news of a brewing revolution that sends her rushing home, where she’s tasked to root out the rebels—only to discover that the one behind it is none other than her once great love: Zephyr, the monarch’s own son. ZEPHYR’s city is flooding and he will do anything to save his people, even if it means overthrowing his own tyrannical mother. When the monarch closes the borders, shutting off the city’s final hope for aid, he must decide if he can trust Deahnna with his secret, or if she’s a threat to more than just his heart. Together, they’ll have to work through old heartbreak and incite a rebellion if they want to shatter the sovereign’s grip on the city before it sinks beneath the waves. The tropes: music-based magic system, second-chance romance, glittering political intrigue, ballroom mayhem Moodboard with 4 images: two people dancing; a dark hallway; a window in a shattered greenhouse; a violin in water

There’s something in the water 🌊

When an island whispers different versions of unwritten local legends and turning into a creature of the deep as a result of heartbreak makes you want to drown your ex- no one is safe

Especially not the ex boyfriends

Blue Crush 🌊 x Sirens 🧜🏼‍♀️

When wanting to drown your ex after they break your heart is a normal feeling it’s also a normal reaction in Breaker Bay 💔
And when you’re a girl gang of sirens whose love language is violence…
It’s a little too normal 😏

THE NEVER GIRL = CINDERELLA x ONE DARK WINDOW

When you are kept in the dark, never to be seen or heard, people forget to mind their tongues. In their careless whispers, they give away their souls. When you become the very shadows themselves, truth becomes the only light.

Death might be a god, but he’s not a god like everyone else. When a soul’s life hangs in his hands & long-lost legends come about, Death must reclaim his mortality to save Morticia’s life. The only problem? The rest of the gods have other plans for them. #questpit #W #A #F

CANE BROTHER SERIES x UNFORTUNATELY YOURS meets TWO BROKE GIRLS

What if Max Black was a receptionist that had to fake date a man to keep her baking business afloat?

#A #R #W #QuestPit #AmEditing
Reddit Post: AITAH for making my fuck buddy be my personal assistant and fake girlfriend? I, 32M, have been hooking up with my co-worker, 25F, for a couple weeks. We have an understanding that this isn’t anything romantic, and agreed to the terms: no feelings, no dates, no one has to know. Everything was going great until my cousin stuck her nose in my fucking business. Now all my friends think I’m lying and that I’m actually dating my co-worker turned fuck buddy. To get her to agree, I saved her from being fired by making her my personal assistant, but she said it would cost me to get her to pretend and be sweet. She told me no more sex, that she wants use my massive kitchen for her and her best friend’s baking business, but then also told me I had to fund the damn thing. What the fuck?? I said no and invited her to move in with me (and my asshole cat that hates me) instead. The gall of telling me to give her money to run THEIR business. I’m a person, not a fucking bank. The thing is...I’ve caught myself feeling more than I should, but I know I can’t go back on what I said. There are things from my past that I can’t just move on from, but she’s fucking gorgeous, funny, smart, and that dickhead cat of mine actually likes her. But after telling her I wouldn’t take her on dates or buy her flowers when we were fuck buddies - er, technically work enemies with benefits - how can I salvage this? I can’t give her what she needs and I know she feels more for me than she lets on. So AITAH for making her do this with me? Knowing she was in a vulnerable place after a breakup, too? Reddit comments with tropes & comps Tropes: enemies to lovers, romcom, enemies with benefits, forced proximity, fake dating, she falls first Comps: A Not So Meet Cute, Unfortunately Yours, Two Broke Girls Snippet: “There’s still one issue,” I say, squaring my shoulders and crossing one leg over the other. “If you need a girlfriend, then you need someone that seems to like you. I’m not kissing you in public, or calling you a stupid pet name like Sweet Honey Baby Muffin.” “First off, I would never want you to call me something so fucking stupid.” He holds up one finger, then another. “Second, how will anyone believe we’re dating if you don’t act like it?” He lied to me for two weeks about who he was, all while reaping the damn benefits. Beckett may have had me where he wanted me before—pinned underneath him and whimpering his name—but now, it’s my turn. Nestling into my seat, I shrug. “You’re right, but it’ll cost you.” Pinching the bridge of his nose, Beckett sighs. “And what will it cost me?” His hand falls, slapping against his thigh. “What do you want, Nat?” “No more sex, for one,” I announce. His jaw drops as a smirk tugs on my lips. “Two, you’re going to let me use your kitchen whenever I want for baking. And three, you fund mine and Summer’s business, S&N Sweets.” Blurb: Natasha has one dream: to take S&N Sweets from side business to storefront bakery. When her sugar daddy leaves her, she’s chef kitchenless, broke, and lands flat on her back underneath her annoying co-worker, Beckett. Rock has met bottom until Beckett makes her an offer she can’t refuse: pretend to be his live-in girlfriend, and she can have full access to his ovens. Another agreement without sweet promises, because no one stays in Nat’s life forever. Beckett doesn’t need a girlfriend to be happy, despite the protests of his friends and family. All he wants is to be promoted from VP of Operations to COO of Carmichael, Lennox & Ross, Corp.. He just needs to survive the acquisition of Sterling Property Group, all while pretending to be someone he’s not. When Nat derails all his plans, he wrestles between being the man he promised someone else he would be, or the happy one he never thought he’d be again.

Mixing sugar with butter? Good.
Mixing business with pleasure? Bad. Terrible. Stupid.
But there's no crying in baking, and the cost to save S&N Sweets? Pretending to be his live-in girlfriend.

It’ll Cost You A dual POV romance with anxiety and grieving rep Comp Titles: Cane Brothers Series for similar writing style, hate sex and alpha CEO MMC Unfortunately Yours for similar character dynamic, mean cat, and wrong first impressions Two Broke Girls for FMC starting a baking business with her best friend, who is the Caroline to her Max. All three are sexy and funny Short synopsis blurb about the book. Beckett Lennox-Ross has been VP of Operations at his family’s investment firm for five years. Standing between him and his promotion to COO is the acquisition of Sterling Property Group, where the mean, but attractive, receptionist makes his job hell. Natasha might think he’s an operations manager, but one wrong move lands her right in his lap. After her sugar daddy ends their contract, Natasha Marino is humiliated, broke, and pinned underneath her annoying co-worker, Beckett. To relieve the stress of her and her best friend’s failing baking business, Nat agrees to a sex-only relationship with Beckett. Everything seems hopeless until a strange client tricks her into saying she has a boyfriend. Desperate not to be set up by his meddling cousin, Beckett makes Nat an offer she can’t refuse. She can live with him rent-free and have full use of his chef’s kitchen, if she pretends to be his girlfriend. When the lines of real and fake blur, what will it cost? Snippet from the book: “Beckett.” His name slips out in an involuntary and contented sigh. I feel the need to suppress it and scream it louder at the same time. “Still hate me?” he asks, lifting his head. That damn smirk of his; he must know how sexy he looks. Before I can answer, he sucks gently on a sensitive spot on my neck. My eyes shut as I pop up, pressing my chest against his and bringing us impossibly closer. I whimper the first syllable of his name, like I’m an old disc with a scratch on it. “I’m going to take that as a no.” “I do though,” I insist, but my voice is quiet and sweet, almost whiny. His eyes meet mine as an electric shock falls through me. “We’ll see how long that lasts.”

Nocturne's halls hold secrets darker than Alyss ever imagined. With sinister professors & corrupted moon magic, she'll need to work with her ex, his new girl, & an infuriately charming vampire to avenge her sister's murder.

A Memory of Moonkissed Malice Villain Era Protag Frenemies to Lovers Queendoms Found Family Fantasy Dark Academia Vampires Feminine Rage Corrupted Moon Magic The Pitch 18-year-old Alyss Veylas wishes to attend Nocturne Collegiate for one reason—revenge. Five long years after her sister was murdered by the school’s guardian, she finally gets that chance. Armed with a Moon Fragment granting memory magic, and the aid of her ex and his new girlfriend, Alyss must confront the woman who took away the person she loved most. Chapter One The rain made it easier to rob his grave. My shovel carved through the sodden earth, the water contorting into murky veins around its edge. Desperation drove each labored thrust, the burning ache in my muscles but an afterthought to the prize that lied in wait. Even the Valera Forest held its breath; the fog thick enough to smother the night’s whispers. All was silent save for the spilling of soil under the deluge that drenched us. Us. As I lifted my gaze to the boy standing across from me, I found that word had lost all semblance of warmth. For Fans Of... The lush, gothic prose of... A fantasy academia setting like...
