Aaliyah Johnson is in her final year at Magnolia State University, where she's balancing a scholarship, an art degree, and the pressure of not knowing what comes next. Elias Carter, the university's baseball captain, seems to have everything figured out, except his own heart. When mutual friends and a poetry club bring them together, sparks ignite in the most unexpected ways. She's brilliant and blunt; he's disciplined and mysterious. But between classes, practices, and the expectations of everyone around them, connection becomes the one thing they can't plan for. From strangers to friends to something far deeper, their story grows with every season, rooted beneath a magnolia tree that sees it all. Autumn brings sparks: "I'm curious about you, but I don't even know why yet." Winter, closeness: "You calm me when I didn't realise I needed calming." Spring, love: "I've known for a while... I just didn't want to ruin it." Summer, uncertainty: "Even if everything changes, you've changed me already."

She falls first, he falls harder. Eighteen-year-old Kehlani Adeyemi never expected to win a scholarship to St Augustine's College, one of London's most elite private schools. Here, uniforms are crisp, families are rich, and she sticks out like a sore thumb. She plans to keep her head down. Blend in. Survive. But when her path crosses with Nate Devereaux, those plans turn to shit. Bad-tempered and impossible to read, Nate is determined to pretend she doesn't exist... until he doesn't. While new friendships form in the glittering world of St Augustine's, Kehlani's real life grows heavier: grief she refuses to touch, siblings who depend on her, and secrets she has sworn never to speak aloud. She can navigate St Augustine's. She can survive home. But she can't let the two collide. Yet the closer she and Nate become, the harder it is to keep her two worlds apart. How long can she maintain this game of pretend before the truth is revealed?

However that takes a turn for the worst when she kisses Azian, a boy who seems too beautiful to be human and ultimately finds herself trapped in a world of magic, curses, spells and.....Legion. **TRAILER INSIDE** THIS IS BOOK 2 OF AZIAN PRINCE OF DRAGONS. **** I'm going to be truthful..this is a good book minus all the none editing and stuff and it was a great idea at the time. You will enjoy this book even though it isn't edited. However, this was just a rough outline of a growing idea, and the whole this realm to that realm isn't where I should have headed with this book (though everyone seems to love it). This is the mate, lycan version of Azian prince of dragons..a very rough rough version and unedited. It is being rewritten and will give it a major turn around to be more like a game of thrones, way of kings novel than a remix of a twighlight thing so yeah.. Feel free to read this version but know I will put up the sample of the other version Kings Of Earth and Fire very soon.. Just vote. Comment and follow!

Set against the ravaged landscape of World War II Europe, The War She Painted follows Zora Lenz, a biracial German woman whose life unravels under the Nazi regime. Born in Berlin to a German painter and a French-Senegalese mother, Zora once lived a quiet, art-filled life with her husband Wilhelm Weiss and their young son, Lukas. But when Wilhelm joins the SS and renounces her to preserve his status, Zora is torn from her family, her son seized, and her identity erased. Branded as "impure," Zora is arrested and sent to Ravensbrück concentration camp, where she endures forced labor, starvation, and dehumanization. There, she learns the language of survival, silence, endurance, and clings to fragments of hope. Her memories of Lukas keep her alive through nights of horror in the camp's brothel, where she becomes both prisoner and pawn in a machinery of cruelty designed to erase women like her. When she catches the attention of the Kommandant, a cold, enigmatic man who both despises and is fascinated by her, Zora's fate takes a twisted turn. He removes her from the camp, claiming to need her artistic skill, and brings her to his estate. What follows is a haunting, psychological entanglement, an uneasy coexistence between victim and captor, built on power, obsession, and a strange, reluctant empathy. As the war's end approaches and Germany begins to burn from within, Zora is drawn into a web of impossible choices between vengeance and forgiveness, love and freedom, captivity and escape.

Toronto, 1954. The city hums with neon, jazz, and whispered secrets, but for Selina Carter, a young Black woman trapped in the polished confines of her respectable life, it is suffocating. Married to a well-meaning but distant husband, Selina carries the unspoken grief of a childless marriage and the ache of desire that goes unmet. When her car breaks down on a quiet summer evening, a stranger comes to her aid-a man of rough hands, quiet authority, and a dangerous, magnetic presence. Reed Sullivan owns a small mechanic shop in the city's shadows, and from the moment they meet, sparks fly that neither can ignore. What begins as polite gratitude quickly turns to stolen moments, lingering glances, and a hunger neither has felt before. Their affair is intoxicating, charged with erotic tension, secret laughter, and the thrill of the forbidden. In his arms, Selina discovers a passion and tenderness that her marriage has never given her; in her, Reed finds a vulnerability and longing that unsettles him entirely. But Toronto is not kind to women like Selina. The affair threatens not only her reputation but everything she has been taught to value-respectability, family, safety. And Reed, brooding and fiercely protective, demands a reckoning: a choice between the life she knows and the love that could destroy them both.

A SEQUEL TO SPOKEN IN SILENCE After Edward Whitcombe's tragic suicide, preceded by the loss of his mistress and illegitimate son, his legacy falls to his elder son, Miles, now burdened with the family estate and law firm. As war breaks across Europe, Toronto becomes both battleground and backdrop, and Miles enlists in the Canadian Army, stationed at home, striving to forge a life separate from the shadows cast by his father. Francis Whitcombe, younger and unapologetically himself, navigates a world that refuses to see him clearly. His queerness, a quiet rebellion in a society gripped by conformity, entwines with the social upheaval of war and family expectation. In the haze of underground clubs and whispered defiance, Miles meets Anya-Francis' radiant friend with secrets of her own. Their love, fragile and fervent, blooms away from prying eyes. Yet fate places Miles on a path toward a marriage arranged for wealth and stature, binding him to a woman he cannot love. As the war intensifies, so does the pressure to uphold the Whitcombe name. History looms, duty beckons, and the echo of past mistakes threatens to drown the possibility of a different future. In stolen hours and hidden places, Miles and Francis each fight for the right to live-and to love-on their own terms.
