Project Roomie
Alice inherited everything the day her world fell apart — money, villas, cars, and a grief she can’t outrun. So she does the only thing that makes sense: fills her empty house with roommates. What she doesn’t expect is Joe — the guy who answers her Instagram post, moves into the room next door, and somehow ends up walking into her new job three weeks later. Slow burn, high tension, and a friend group with secrets of their own. Some rooms share walls. Some hearts take longer to admit it.

Thriller

Elena Sanchez is just a nurse — until Dante Petrovic, heir to a rival mafia empire, recognizes the ghost of her old life in her hands. To escape him, she runs. Instead, she’s captured, unmasked as Eleonor Valentino, and dragged back to the father she fled. As his estate strips her identity away piece by piece, only one man is reckless enough to breach the gates for her. But by the time he reaches her, he may be facing a stranger wearing the woman he loves.
