    Summary

    Rey Palpatine has always enjoyed books: it meant falling in love with fictional characters and immersing herself in far-off worlds....

    She enjoys them more than her own reality--since her social life, professional life, and love life are disasters all across the board.

    It's all pretty harmless until Rey meets a mysterious entity that curses her to be trapped in an unfinished novel. In order to escape, she must resume the main character's identity and bring about the story's conclusion.

    But when Rey begins to REALLY fall in love with the main character's soon-to-be-ex-husband, Ben Solo, she begins to question whether her old life is worth coming back to, and struggles with the moral dilemma of taking over a fictional life that is not hers-- all while trying to solve the insidious mystery ripping through the story's plot line.

    Ben Solo is the only other person she can trust to help her solve the puzzle, but can she continue to lean on him when her feelings for him only grow stronger with every step taken toward her freedom?

    Summary

    Fed up with working at TeedoMart, Rey surprises herself by accepting a job as a “domestic intimacy provider” to reclusive tech CEO Kylo Ren. She’s nervous about the job and all the intimacy it entails, but she needs the money to pay off student loans from the degree she didn’t even get to finish.

    Ben Solo—known to the outside world as Kylo Ren, CEO of Dyad Energetics—hasn’t left his Chandrila estate in almost a decade. On the advice of his therapist (sort of), he hires a young woman for companionship, though he’s braced for her to quit and run away the instant she sees his face.

    Instead, two lonely souls find kinship, belonging, and the opportunity to heal together. If only their arrangement didn’t involve an eighty-page contract, a six-figure salary, and a potential expiration date….

    Summary

    Benjamin Solo hadn’t always been abhorrent. 

    There had been a time, long ago, when he would smile freely and laugh until he couldn’t breathe. When he would grab her hand, so small within his even then, and together they’d run through fields of grass and wildflowers.

    Those memories felt tainted now, in the wake of his glares and his sharp tongue.

    Now, Benjamin Solo wasn’t just abhorrent. He was an unfeeling, unabashed rake with a soul black as a country night and no heart to speak of. He was the worst person Rey had ever had cause to interact with. And, most repulsively, he was now her bloody fiancé.

    Summary

    To anyone looking in, Ben Solo had it all. He was rich, popular, a star athlete—dating the head cheerleader—and still, he couldn’t shake the feeling that something was missing.

    Rey Niima was the outsider. A foster kid in hand-me-down clothes, used to being overlooked and deeply suspicious of anything that promised permanence. To her, the idea of a soulmate felt less like destiny and more like a cage.

    When their skin touches and the soulmate bond is triggered, Ben and Rey are pulled together from opposite worlds—where even the broken pieces fit, if the bond can survive everything high school throws their way.

    Summary

    Her Majesty Leia Organa, desperate to save her son from the path he's being lured down, insists he marry. When he chooses a random servant who rejects his proposal, his fascination with her destroys Snoke's plans... and Rey's.

    "This angry woman, who’d kicked him in the royal jewels hours before, wanted for him to escort her to admire the stars. She’d been intending to fall asleep but now that she knew Ben planned to meet with the First Order, now Rey wished for him to stay here and show her the stars. It was absolutely ridiculous. But even more so was that Ben actually turned his head and looked at her. 
    She looked so absurdly delicate. Rey had not put on a single garment and stood only in her chemise, shivering but resolute in the cold air of Alderaan’s night. Lit by moonlight, it seemed as though the woman might blow away or fall apart and yet her feet were planted as if she were were the very mountains of this country. As he turned to face her fully Ben burned this image into his mind. Of all seen so far, this face of her beauty was most profound. If Ben could show this to the world, no one would ever question again why it must be Rey above all others."
