HEIRS SERIES #1 ~Eres Academy~ Paige Bennet is a commoner, forever chased by her life's monsters. Wealth, comfort, and security aren't part of her world. But what she does have is intelligence, and that's what's earned her a scholarship to the world's most prestigious school for the Royal and the elite: Eres Academy. In an instant, she's thrust into a world vastly different from her own-a world that dazzles at first glance with sports cars, glimmering gowns, entitled rich kids, and spoiled royals. Amidst its glamour, Paige is confident in her smarts and certain that a group of wealthy, golden-bathed teenagers won't intimidate her. But soon one learns that all that glitters isn't gold, and even the rich have monsters of their own. Which no textbook could ever prepare her for. Blake Carlisle isn't someone to mess with. He's rich, he's handsome, he's elite. Oh and one more thing-he's a bully. Life experiences are said to shape us, in Blake's case, they've shaped him for the worse. Ever since his birth, he'd been at the top of life's food chain. Commoners are preyed by the wealthy, thus, in Eres, to him, they don't belong. And he makes sure they know it. This school year, he's planning to do the same. But things change when the commoner isn't like the others. She's a fighter. Yet no matter the fire in her eyes, she was just another commoner who would always remain beneathe him, he just needed to her remind her of her place. And in Eres, he wanted her gone. But what happens when a fierce rivalry turns into attraction? When the target lowers her guard, and the bully's heart turns soft? One thing's for sure: We'll all be damned. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For only fire can melt even the purest of gold. And her flames are those he'd never thought to behold. _________________________ Highest Rankings. #2 teen fiction #1 Monarchy COMPLETED

Samhita Maity, a historian, found excitement in discovering long-lost secrets of histories- a perfectionist in her work. However, there was one mysterious figure eluding her expertise-the exploration of the most celebrated king of ancient India, whose name resounded across the world. His unwritten and unfinished books ignited her curiosity, and day and night, her thoughts were consumed by him. Who was he beyond the exterior of a king? How did his empire attain such advanced and flourishing heights that even contemporary science couldn't reach? Why were only fragments written about him? Where did he vanish so suddenly? These questions lingered, morphing into an obsession. Driven by an insatiable desire to unravel his mystery, Samhita set on a daring journey through time, stepping into his kingdom. As the threads of time intertwined, Samhita became Rajadhiraj Vikramaditya's own obsession. She had entered the realm of an eagle, and now, there seemed to be no escape. Would she find her way back to her own time? Would he permit her departure or would she be held captive by the sparks of dominance and power that crackled between them? Could their individual dominances coexist, or would they crumble in the face of each other's compelling forces?
