All he has is the vague recollection of a holy mission to vanquish a terrible evil, but the world he finds himself in now is greatly changed, and evil is everywhere.

Forced together by the most unlikely of circumstances, our two heroes find themselves up against a corrupt clergy, a ruthless secret police force, and entirely too many monsters. As they uncover truths surrounding Alaeron's missing past and Skender's uncertain future, they are drawn ever closer to to a dark figure long believed lost, now once more awake and very, very hungry. If they are to survive, they must do so together. That is if they don't kill each other first. UPDATES MONDAY AND THURSDAY

Ardent Currents - Book 1 An artist who's trauma has driven an important part of his past from his mind meets a loan shark scion who remembers every stolen glance. If you like dark mafia daddies, snarky AIs, heated eye contact, ridiculous levels of "down so bad" longing, spicy tension, and scenes that will leave you checking to make sure no one's reading over your shoulder or in the reflection of your glasses... this one's for you! Jamar Devereaux All I ever wanted was my mother's company, not the dream he stole, not even the time before the accident that took my memories. But now, Mother's crossed the Union's most notorious loan sharks... and what they want as payment might be the end of my life as I know it. Alaric Mako I've hunted him for so long, and at last, I'll finally make him mine. Summary: When his mother defaults on a deadly loan with powerful loan sharks, Jamar Devereaux is forced into an arranged engagement with the son of the most notorious loan shark in the Union, even though he's sure he's not into men. Jamar's fiancé? Alaric Mako: the devastatingly handsome, cold and calculating heir who's spent years watching Jamar from afar. Jamar can't remember their brief past before his accident, but Alaric Mako has never forgotten. To save his mother and himself, Jamar agrees to the proposal. But as he fights to ignore the magnetic pull toward Alaric, he discovers feelings his accident suppressed. Thrilled to have found him again, Alaric Mako woos Jamar the only way a loan shark can-with dogged obsession. In this far off, technology-driven future of corporate dynasties, news-fluencers, and ruthless debt law, will Jamar and Alaric cut through the tension to a happily ever after despite being bound by debt, or will the way they started be too powerful a force to overcome, and bring their end again? Can Jamar and Alaric overcome the suffocating weight of debt and an arranged engagement to find something stronger: chosen love? Read to find out!

Landon Ashford. Star quarterback. And keeping up with the stereotype, he's a Grade-A asshole. Normally, I would have kept my mouth shut. But Hayley just confessed to him that she's really into him and wants to go out on a date with him. "Helena, you're not adequate enough for me," he mocks. "And you're not even pretty enough to ignore your lack of a personality. So please get it through your head: Dating you is out of the question." Cue the laughter of his loyal pack of brainless minions. Cue Hayley's tears. And cue me-finally snapping. I step towards him with slow claps, "Impressive." He looks at me questioningly so I continue, "When you were a little boy, your parents said they wanted you to be exotic. But the dyslexic you misunderstood. And now you're just toxic." "Excuse me?" he is annoyed. "Just because I don't want to date your petty friend doesn't mean I'm toxic." "With all due respect, which is none, this has nothing to do with you rejecting Hayley," I maintain an even sarcasm with my tone, loud enough for half of the cafeteria. "It's about your words. Seven thousand languages in this world and still you chose to speak shit." "Your friend needs to understand her place, in whatever language she gets," he states. "Audacity must be on sale this year, right?" I ask everyone around. I could hear a few giggles from some students and my friends. As their fight continues, Shanaya Kapoor starts to realise... she is making an enemy out of Landon Ashford, the golden boy. And Prince Charming sure will be ruthless towards this evil witch trying to dethrone him. It's going to be a trying time for the rest of her days at the university. Which have just started.

As you open the book and delve into its pages, you are immediately drawn into the fragmented consciousness of our protagonist. He flickers into awareness within a boundless void, an expanse devoid of light, of form, of sensation. A slow coalescence of being, not an awakening, but a gradual assembling of self within the nothingness. Confusion, not as a coherent emotion, but as a formless disquiet, permeates his nascent understanding. He is, yet he is nothing, a solitary point of awareness adrift in an uncharted sea of possibility. He is not alone...

Young Alex's life has not slowed down once since he can remember. But he can't remember before his eight birthday, so that's not saying much.

It leads him far away to an abandoned school for little wizards, with a missing Headmaster and a murderous dysfunctional staff. When he gets there, he is surprised to find everyone already hates him.
