Maven Wood is ready for a fresh start. After an injury on the soccer field leads to her dropping out of college, she needs a change.

When her godfatherā€“the coach of the hottest team in the NFLā€“tells her about an open position as a sports photographer, she jumps at the chance to apply. The pay is good, but it doesnā€™t cover her rent after her roommate moves out. Out of ideas, sheā€™s not sure how sheā€™s going to afford to make ends meetā€¦ until the cute kicker comes to her rescue.

Dallas Lansfield never thought heā€™d be a single dad, but heā€™s embracing the role as best as he can. With a four-year-old that has too much energy and not enough time on his hands, he needs help.

Desperately.

So when he hears that his coachā€™s goddaughter is looking for a way to make more money, he practically begs her to come be his nanny.

Maven and Dallas arenā€™t allowed to fall for each other. Getting involved with a player on the team is off-limits and a quick way to get fired. But what starts as a professional relationship turns into something deeper.

In front of people, theyā€™re colleagues. Behind the cameras, though, their attraction only grows. Late night talks turn into sharing a bed, and soon, Dallas would rather give up his career than give up the feelings he has for Maven.

He canā€™t have her. So why does he want her so damn bad?

Butcher and BlackbirdĀ is a dark romantic comedy about two serial killers who only kill other serial killers. Think: a sweet, protective Dexter meets an artsy, sassy female Dexterā€”but make it a rom-com. Thereā€™s pining and piercings, a little light stalking, some cooking, and, of course, killing, dismemberment, elaborate crime scenes, lobotomized butlers, and mildly inappropriate use of a mummified corpse. Basically, it’s a lot of messed-up serial killer chaos. Itā€™s pretty awesome. Ohā€”and every year, they play a rousing game ofĀ who-can-identify-hunt-and-kill-the-serial-killer-firstā€”you know, for funsies.Ā  Sloane and Rowan, our serial killer couple, meet by chance when they unknowingly go […]

The Kingdom of Mamoris is ruled by an evil king who covets magic and power. His firstborn and only child, Princess Verena, is the sole heir to Mamorisā€™ throne. But, despite the kingā€™s many, and often abusive, attempts to draw out Verenaā€™s magic, she remains powerless.

After many failed attempts at producing a worthy heir, the queen (Verenaā€™s beloved mother) dies in […]
