Blurb Born the second twin, Fae was always the shadow-the quiet teacher, the caretaker,,the one who stayed in the shadows and let her siblings shine . When her sister became Luna to a powerful Alpha, she recognised his widowed brother, Blaidd as her own. But he was a man still bound to the memory of his dead mate. For eight long years, she raised his children, kept his home, and did her best to make him see her. But when she discovers the rune carved into his flesh-a witch's mark ensuring she could never bear his child-the truth shatters the last illusion of love. In a public hearing before her Alpha, she asks for what no mated wolf ever has: the right to live her own life. Her courage ripples through the pack, exposing the cracks in every tradition meant to keep her bound. And as she steps beyond her mate's shadow toward a distant land and a craft that calls to her soul, she begins to awaken to the woman she was always meant to be - one carved not from obedience, but from fire, freedom, and forgotten dreams.

Liam thought he could keep his past casual and his present serious. Too bad Kashvi doesn't do half-truths. Or half-commitments. What started as one week of unexpected connection turned into something deeper-until a tagged photo, a flirty comment, and one very territorial (ex?) situationship flipped everything upside down. Now Kashvi's in Vancouver, furious. Liam's in Toronto, flailing. And the line between what they were and what they could've been is starting to look a lot like... nothing. Gilded Nothing is a standalone novella about messy timing, unfinished pasts, and groveling that takes more than just flowers.

Nora never wanted much. Just a steady home. Simple days. A life that held its shape. She didn't crave excitement or change. She only needed predictability. Her routines, her quiet, her small world. It was enough. She believed that if she kept everything perfectly still, the life she had built would hold. And for a long time, it did. But when the ground finally shifted under her feet, Nora didn't move with it. She froze in place, the way people do when they have no other direction to turn. Because where does a person go when they have nowhere to go? Warning: This story uses mature language and scenes. © IcecreamSundae5. All rights reserved.

"Olive Smith, a 17-year-old innocent girl. Her life changed when she went to a new high school to complete her final year. Life does get exciting when two extremely handsome guys fall for her and show her the true meaning of love. James Anderson, the popular jock, and Nick Miller, the bad boy. Who will she choose without breaking too many hearts? Will she be able to save her heart in the midst of all of this?" Yes! Of course, she will save her heart. That's all she did throughout the whole book! Using people as she wanted and then just dumping them! And it's all forgiven only because she's the main character. I hate her, not just because she is a manipulative person, but also because she broke Nick's heart so many times. When all he's ever done is help her. And also, the writer of this book tried to show Nick as the "Bad Boy" when he's actually the best character in the whole book. You might be wondering who I am and why the hell am I talking about a teenage high school cliche book. It's because I'm in it now. Hi, I'm Zee Thompson who magically got trapped inside a book. Saving Nick's heart wasn't exactly my mission in this world, but it is now. I'll do anything to make sure his heart doesn't break at the end of this. I hope mine doesn't break either. .............
