'Just one more question. Well, two questions. Did the Goddess ever get her voice back, and has anyone met her?' 'She did, but no one knows how. It's a mystery! The Goddess does not like showing herself to people, but she had to when it came to fixing the rum situation.' 'Maybe, I will get to meet her,' Jacques said proudly. The Captain chuckled, 'My boy, you might get to.' From that day forward, Jacques sailed the seven seas waiting for the time he would get the opportunity to meet the Goddess. As Jacques sailed on the ocean, he heard the same humming sound as the Captain once did before him. In a tale of adventure and forbidden love, Jacques, the captain of the ship Sparrow, has been sailing the seas ever since he heard a mysterious voice from the ocean. This voice belongs to Arieshell, a siren who has controlled the waves for millennia. When she encounters Jacques's ship, she falls in love with him. The story explores whether Jacques and Arieshell can find what they are searching for despite the challenges of their different worlds. ------ The cover credit goes to @lorenasanz15 The banner credit goes to @starisredy Character Aesthetics credits edible_autumn Word count Goal: 85,000-115,000 Word Count: 177,928 ----- Highest Rankings πŸ₯‡ #1 in Sirens - 11/08/25 πŸ₯‡ #1 in Sailors - 11/15/25

When visiting Canada for a wedding, a commitment-averse dive instructor must pretend to date her Australian seatmate to avoid conflict with her ex and judgmental mother. *** Audrey Clarke rarely felt like other women her age. Not as a teen who'd never gushed about gorgeous celebrities, nor at almost thirty, with no desire to marry, have kids, or settle down. She would much rather explore reefs in Southeast Asia and adventure around exciting places. Even when she meets travellers with similar dreams, none are the right romantic match. Until Caleb. When flying home to Canada for her friend's wedding, Audrey dreads confronting the pain she caused her ex and facing her judgemental mother. It drives her to connect with her seatmate, Australian environmental scientist, Caleb, who also craves a distraction. Despite his charm, he is enigmatic about the cause of his stress. They agree to fake a relationship to make their lives easier. The more time they spend together, the more real their act feels. Will Audrey be brave enough to share her true feelings before the trip is over? *** Featured on - Humor's 'Ambassador's Monthly Pick' reading list (Nov 2025) - Ambassador's recommendations "Aces!

Some girls run from their demons. Frankie trains with hers. In a world where purity is weaponized and allegiance is everything, Frankie Oliveira returns to the one place she swore never to set foot in again-Fleur Panache. Branded a fallen purist with a broken demize clock and a past buried in flames, she must now survive brutal retraining, political land wars, and the spiritual elite's suspicions. But as the boundary between the living and the possessed begins to blur, so does the line between truth and manipulation. Allies are scarce. Her enemies know her better than she knows herself. And then there's Xanthe Linea Morais, part heir, part executioner, whose interest in her may be a game of power... or something far more dangerous. Haunted by her choices and hunted from both sides, Frankie faces an impossible question: Can the girl who was born to uphold the sacred survive becoming the symbol of its unraveling? One wrong move, and purity won't just be lost, it'll be redefined.
