Orphan Ashalia sleeps with her eyes open, walks with her back to the dormitory walls and never lets the other kids see her fears. In a world powered by greed, every moment could be her last. She also has a secret. An ability so powerful that if the ruling caste knew of what she was capable, they might do to her what they did to her parents. At eighteen-years-old, Ash's recruitment day is approaching and she must face a choice - save her brother from certain death on the streets or risk her own life at the hands of a mysterious stranger with silver-blue eyes, who keeps turning up at the most dangerous and inconvenient moments. This story is for fans of Avatar the Last Airbender. Or those who love a book about hidden magic schools and hate-to-love slow burn romances. *COMPLETE* This novel was originally signed to Harlequin's 'Digital Series First' imprint before it closed and the author's rights were reverted.

"𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐆𝐈𝐑𝐋 𝐇𝐀𝐒 𝐀𝐋𝐖𝐀𝐘𝐒 𝐁𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐇𝐀𝐋𝐅 𝐆𝐎𝐃𝐃𝐄𝐒𝐒, 𝐇𝐀𝐋𝐅 𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐋" Delphinium Tesla is anything but the normal girl she pretends she is, especially not with the power of telekinesis behind her fingertips. Haunting her nightmares are memories of the evil organization that trained her to be a murdering assassin. One of her worst fears comes to life when she is captured by a government organization and forced into a team with seven other enhanced individuals. Along with a strongman, two orphans, one healer, a charming criminal, a slight lunatic and a crime lord, she must take out a rising evil that is killing innocent people for an unknown purpose. This group of criminals have to come together if they have any hope of surviving to unravel the mystery that is not as it seems. But they all must beware: a few of the team members are far more dangerous than they let on. Together, they will endure lies, betrayal and treachery. Ultimately, Delphinium and her crew will have to ask: "Can the past really stay in the past?" Eventually, the truth will emerge... 𝐖𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐄𝐑𝐒 𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐒𝐀𝐈𝐃: "I've never really read anything like this before. And as a first-timer, I fell in love with it. Hard. I'm so glad I chose to read this book because it satisfies me in so many ways. The author writes such a unique story with such unique aspects and I really hope that people take the leap of faith to read it." "Bizarre, action-filled, funny, heart-thumping and so much more!" "I can't help but put in some time to comment and say what an astounding book you have written, I love it so much that I'm begging lots of people to read it and give it a shot. I know it's not something they'll regret, I for sure didn't. This book will go far!" "This is the best book I've read. Beautiful."

Arabella Diaz 20 year old woman, forced into the marriage between her and a ruthless Mafia leader Mateo Salvatore. It doesn't matter to him that he's a married man, so he continues to live his life like normal. But when even the simplest of things about her intrigued him. From her her soft feathery curtain bangs to how peaceful she looked while she slept. Could he risk hurting himself again for her, or would he become broken beyond repair. ~•~•~ "I'm trying Arabella, but it's so fucking hard to stay away when you bite your fucking lip." He hovered over me as I laid flat on our bed. His thumb grazed over my bottom lip removing it from between my teeth. "Oh fuck it!" He kissed my lips with his soft pink ones. His teeth bite my bottom lip and I arched my back with both pleasure and pain. ~•~•~ This book will have warnings before each chapter in case the content is 18+, a topic not everyone is comfortable with, or torture. If you don't want to read about those things please DO NOT read. And if you would like to you can always skip the part where those subjects are brought up. Sincerely, A
