    Summary

    Violet is happy to helm story time for the early-learners group occasionally—it is her bookstore after all—but she has no interest in catering it for the holidays. None. Nada. And for the last time, there will be no tinsel in this building, Ridoc!

    Enter Xaden Riorson: handsome tattoo artist and single dad. He's just trying his best to make ends meet, get his daughter to that reading-session-thing she likes so much, and make sure she has the best Christmas now that she's old enough to remember it.

    Oh, and convince the gorgeous bookstore owner that the holidays aren't so bad after all if they celebrate them together. That too.

    Summary

    Violet Sorrengail lives for the stage. As a prima ballerina, she’s built her life around discipline, sacrifice, and the pursuit of perfection. But behind the scenes, she hides the chronic pain that threatens to consume her—and the fiery memories of an encounter with Xaden Riorson, a man whose sharp tongue and smoldering presence have left a mark she can’t erase.

    or:

    The AU where ballet is Violet’s world, Xaden is the storm she didn’t expect, and nothing is ever as simple as a perfect pirouette.

    There was nothing Violet wanted more than to complete her family with Xaden with a child of their own. It took longer than they thought, but the wait was worth it.

    Summary

    There were plenty of ways that Violet Sorrengail would’ve preferred to spend the Winter Solstice. Marrying Xaden Riorson was not one of them.

    She supposed it all worked out, in the end.

    Summary

    “There’s no distance or circumstance that could ever kill my love for you, Remi Sorrengail. You’re it for me. You gave me your heart and I’m keeping it.” He leans in, so only I can hear his quiet words. “Why do you think they’ve given me those orders?” He asks. “They’re afraid of us—of what we’re capable of as a team—and so they should be.”

    ✨ 🐉

    Remi Sorrengail’s life has been completely upended. The monsters that gave her nightmares as a child are real, her dead brother has been secretly alive this entire time and never once contacted her, and her partner has been lying about all of it. Oh and he’s also royalty.

    Throw in a bunch of assassins, a psychotic vice-commandant and a war on the horizon, and she truly has her work cut out for her—and that’s not even taking into account matters of the heart.
