Summary
When your high-powered marketing career goes up in flames, you find yourself back in Texas and out of options—until your old childhood best friend Tommy Miller offers you a job at his family’s growing construction company. The only catch? His older brother Joel, the project manager with a chip on his shoulder and zero patience for your city-slicker attitude.
You clash instantly: you’re clever, confident, and painfully corporate. He’s quiet, rugged, and set in his ways. You push his buttons. He pushes back harder. But somewhere between long meetings, late nights, resurfacing memories, hurt, along with one very unexpected work trip… the tension starts to shift.
What begins as bickering turns into banter. Glances linger. Walls crack. And neither of you is quite sure when things started to change.

Summary
Newly settled into Jackson City, you’re assigned to patrol duty with Joel Miller; a man of rough edges and cool appraisals. His story is buried deep beneath scars of loss while you hide your own grief behind flour-dusted hands and the desperate hope of belonging. What begins as forced proximity slowly shifts into something fragile and all-consuming. But as the past creeps forward through old wounds and the ever-present threat of raiders, your feelings for one another become both a sanctuary and a liability. In a world already broken, where there is already so much to lose, can you let yourself love Joel Miller?

Summary
Thanks to your No-Maj parents' messy divorce the summer before your seventh year, you're plucked from Nowhereville, USA and shipped off to the Scottish highlands for one final year at Hogwarts. But after catching one glimpse of the castle, you couldn't bear to leave the old-money life of manors and ballgowns behind.
As far as anyone at Hogwarts knows, you're a pureblood New Englander with style, grace, and the Gringotts vault to back it up. And somehow you've managed to seduce Draco Malfoy. You should be set for life... until you meet his father.
Lucius is sharp, cunning, and searingly sexy. Passion flares immediately. You should stay away if you know what's good for you—Lucius is twice the man Draco is, and a lot harder to fool—but attraction is a hard thing to fight, and as your shared secret gets harder and harder to control, for better or for worse, your fates become intertwined for good.

Summary
I caved. I'm NSFW artist and my bitch ass caved to writing this so excuse me if my writing isn't perfect. I wrote this in the second perspective because I'm a slut & I know y'all are too.
Preview:
You match his sultry gaze. "Well—what's your idea of 'a little' fun?" as you inch closer you have a better view of those pearly whites. Those same supple and strangely, hypnotic fangs that once pierced your skin seem to call—no—beckon you. Almost begging to penetrate those same veins that you once offered freely.
You feel—hypnotized as your lips purse against his and he responds promptly. You're not sure if it's the alcohol influencing or your imagination but for a vampire—his kiss feels inviting and warm...while you do enjoy your playful interactions with men time to time—this feels different. Pretty boys were never your thing, but Astarion isn't pretty—he's beautiful. From the features of his cheeks to his jawline to his lean muscular figure, he is magnificent and you ache to see that smug, arrogant smile of his melt into obscene depravity of the likes which he has never seen.

The Accountant’s Guide to Taking Down an Evil Vampire Lord (and maybe bagging Astarion while you are at it) by Cinnamontails

Summary
“Fine,” she said. “Do you know the statistically most common way for the authorities to take out organized crime?”
Well, if that was her idea of enticing conversation, it was no wonder she had all those evenings free to chase after scoundrels like him. Still, Astarion didn’t want to antagonize her further and ruin the game, so he pursed his lips and guessed, “A very large, well-placed cannon?”
“Tax fraud.”
She looked at him as if she expected some sort of reaction – maybe a dramatic gasp? A palm flung to his forehead in a theatrical rendition of How could I not think of this?
Everything he could muster was a blink. “Tax … fraud.”
She nodded, obviously excited about what Astarion was sure were two of the most boring words in the English language, combined.

Summary
You glance up at Astarion as he pauses; he seems almost hesitant, his expression pensive. “I didn't get a chance to thank you,” he finally says. “For earlier.”
“Hmm?” You tilt your head inquisitively, searching your mind for what he's referring to.
“For what you did back there, back with that vile Drow who wanted me to bite her.” He almost spits out the words, and you can plainly hear the disgust in his tone. “You stood up for me when you didn't have to. Thank you for that.”
━━ ◆ ━━
Or, you and Astarion spend a night together after reaching Moonrise Towers.

Summary
How Halsin’s romance might have played out if we could have had his kisses, adoration, and been totally railed senseless by Oak Daddy from the end of Act I. An ode to Halsin’s hairy chest, big arms, and the vein that I know stands out so thickly on his *muffled horny noises*

Summary
Severus Snape and a restless student share a secret hiding place across the lake.
Story begins in 1995 in 5th year, canon-compliant through to 1998, and then diverges into a post-war AU.
This is an atmospheric slow burn and my romantic take on a Snape character study.
I have the entire story more or less outlined.
This is a plot focused reader insert.

Summary
She was in Professor Sharp’s laboratory out of sheer necessity. A healer in the making who just needed it to finish her thesis. Completely focused on her goal.
She didn’t account for how difficult it would be to concentrate each time the ex-Auror’s hard eyes landed on her.
She definitely didn’t account for how good it would be to feel his rough hands on her skin, or how fast her heart would beat each time he said, “Focus, Miss Fay.”
