In the heart of New York, the city's most feared mafia isn't the one you can see-it's the one you can't. The Ghost Syndicate is a criminal empire with no known leader, no traceable members, and no evidence of existence. Yet, every major crime in the city has their signature-a playing card left at the scene, always The Joker. When detective Dante Raines stumbles upon a cryptic clue in a cold case from 30 years ago, he realizes that the Ghost Syndicate has been operating from the shadows for decades, erasing anyone who comes too close. But the more he digs, the more he realizes something chilling-every investigator who looked into the case disappeared... including his own father. Now, the Syndicate has marked him. Every time he wakes up, he finds a Joker card on his nightstand. His closest allies turn against him. His identity is erased. His bank accounts, gone. He becomes a ghost before he even dies. With no one left to trust, Dante has only one option-to join the Syndicate himself and destroy it from within. But the deeper he goes, the more he questions: •What if the Ghost Syndicate is more than just a mafia? •What if they are rewriting history itself? •And what if... he was never meant to exist in the first place?

When a malevolent witch wakes up two-hundred years later in a completely different England, she has to solve the mysteries of her past with the help of an old immortal nemesis before her true enemies get to her. *** In 1822, Lady Aster Byrne is considered the most powerful witch in all of England for her ability to step into dreams and manipulate dreamers. But the night of the massacre changes it all. She thought she died, but she didn't. She just slept for two centuries. Two-hundred years later, she wakes up in Genesis City, one of dozens under the Saint Society. She's told that while she slept, witches had survived the huntings and won the war against the vampires. Ever since, the society had thrived, creating borders to keep them safe from the ferals who survived the war. Now that she's awake, she's no longer just the powerful witch who can navigate dreams and nightmares. She's now the possible answer to immortality. And from the moment she wakes up, Aster gets the royal treatment only given to Astrals. That is until she discovers something that will turn her from worshiped to hunted. Something is wrong with her. And something is definitely awry in this new world. As Aster tries to figure out what really happened to her two-hundred years ago, she comes face to face with Harald Evensen, a cold, immortal piece of vampire she hated then and forever. He betrayed his coven to be part of the Saint Society for a very good reason. And part of that reason is her. As much as she wants to have nothing to do with him, she needs him. Being the only one who had lived for the two centuries she was asleep, he has answers to her past. And he has blood to offer. Whether Aster likes it or not, her life depends on both.

"You are so afraid that love will destroy you, that you destroy yourself so that you could save yourself from the murderous hands of those that will never touch you anyways" You were gorgeous, but so was your possessive ex-girlfriend who didn't want you to move on to other women. But there you were, moving on to me, controlling the crowd as if everyone belonged to you. You have the power the fill this room with energy or take it all away; all with that crooked smile and a cigarette in your mouth. But... "Relationships are a hassle," Secret little encounters, the proximity of pristine emotions, bicycle rides, rainy nights, your face burns into my memory and I know that it is brave to love "You've made me realise I don't hate people. If there are people like you out there, then the world doesn't seem half bad of a place to spend a century in,"," I see the end to the chemistry we shared as we sat beside each other that afternoon with energy drink cans in our pale, sweaty fingers, just you and me under the Eucalyptus shade. Drying our sun-burnt bodies under the shade, I can smell your presence like the first time rain hits desert grains, my golden world runs azure and I look at you, And you were looking at me. "Now I understand why men lost their minds and fought wars for women. They must be women like you"

Sick of cliché Wattpad books? Then this isn't the book for you. We take every single over-used plot, character and trope on Wattpad - from player-meets-nerd to my-boyfriend-is-a-vampire - and mash it all into one, awful, hilarious parody. NOTE: This is a parody. Characters have not been created to mock a race/nationality/sexuality, they have been created to lightly poke fun at the way certain teen fiction writers reduce them into crude stereotypes. Thanks for helping this pile of junk get to #1 in Humor!

From Kamery Solomon, #1 bestselling genre author and creator of the bestselling series The God Chronicles, comes the international bestseller SWEPT AWAY, a time travel romance fraught with danger and secrets on the high seas! BLURB: Dead men tell no tales... For more than 200 years, the Treasure Pit on Oak Isle has baffled treasure hunters, engineers, and the common man alike. When Samantha Greene arrives, she finds her estranged father has spent years funneling energy and finances into the endeavor, finding nothing. When an accidental death occurs in the pit, fulfilling the prophecy that seven lives must end before the treasure can be found, the search kicks into high gear, with more than one party vying for the secrets that lie below. Finding herself the closest to the treasure anyone has ever been, Samantha throws herself into the work, landing among the coveted prize. Just as she's about to discover what's truly hidden beneath the island, the pit begins to flood with ocean water, sweeping her away despite her attempts to swim to the surface. Upon awaking, Samantha discovers that, not only did she not drown, but the year is 1695-one hundred years before the Treasure Pit was even discovered. Carried off by the pirate Tristan O'Rourke, a rouge Irishman with more than his share of secrets, she soon finds that there is much more than she realized in play. Will she discover the secrets of Oak Isle, or will an unexpected love keep her from finding out the truth? Will she ever make it back to her own time? Perhaps the real question is this; will she want to?
