The world is brimming with myths, cleverly disguised as concepts, standards and the elusive idea of perfection. Nobody is perfect. Everybody has a thorn pricking in their chest whether we know it or not. We are designed with flaws, each struggling to walk the path we believe leads to 'perfection'. These false perceptions often pull us to the darkest corner of existence. Are the 5 strangers any different? Of course, not.

Ironically, they unravel fragments of their lives, try to salvage themselves from the chaos within and solve the most critical yet inevitable problems of lives. But how could they really do it when danger lurks at every corner,sorrowful memories claw their way to the surface and a cascade of unwelcome events threatens to break them? Can they rise above it all and live their lives as a bunch normal 18 year olds or will they be thrown in to a pit from where they can never escape? As they confront these challenges, will they be able to hunt their own treasures buried deep in themselves-or just lose hope entirely? To unveil such an enigma and follow their gripping journey, buckle up because this is going to be a ride to the unknown, the unpredictable and what not!

"Gölgeler ardımdaydı... ama ben hep ışığa yürüdüm."

In the heart of a city steeped in secrets, Ghasan Lashari returns after a decade, his heart a storm of anger and determination. Obsessed with revenge for his sister's disappearance and the shadowy truth behind it, he is a man torn between darkness and the fragile light of redemption. Maryam Khan, a woman who embodies strength wrapped in calmness, has spent years seeking solace in faith. Haunted by her own past trauma and the betrayal that marked her childhood, she shields herself behind the unwavering bond she shares with her brother, Shayaan Khan. But beneath her serene exterior lies a storm she barely understands. Shayaan Khan, a man who has always been Maryam's anchor, knows too well the cost of love and loyalty. From the depths of pain, he has built a life of protection for the sister he swore to keep safe. But when Ghasan walks back into their lives, the balance he worked so hard to maintain is threatened. Lyla, a force of ruthlessness and cunning, whose presence breathes a spark of unpredictability into this tangled web of love, betrayal, and revenge. She holds the key to a secret that could either destroy them all or set them free. As Ghasan's dark quest collides with Maryam's quiet strength, truths are laid bare, and loyalties are tested. Will vengeance consume them, or will they find redemption in the ashes of their broken pasts? "WHISPER OF WIND" is a tale of love, pain, and sacrifice, where the line between good and evil blurs, and where two souls find that even in the midst of darkness, there is a glimmer of hope.

In which I fall in love with my sister's brother. "I should hate you." He whispers against my lips. "You do." I say and he nods his head "Then why does it feel like I'd burn the world for you." ** Karina Poleman never planned to marry Nicholas De La Noche-her sister's blood brother, her personal nightmare in a designer suit. Cold-blooded, calculating, and devastatingly cruel, Nicholas forced her hand to seal an alliance between cartels. Now, she wears his ring. Sleeps in his bed. And burns every time he looks at her like he owns her soul. She should hate him. She does hate him. But hate tastes a lot like want and lust when the lights go out. There's something in the way he watches her. Like he's waiting for her to run-so he can chase. Like he wants to ruin her just to see what's underneath the ruins. Like he's been bleeding for her long before she ever said I do. Torn between a past soaked in blood and a future built on lies, Karina is pulled into a deadly game of loyalty, lust, and legacy. When Nicholas is poisoned by someone from her past, a league of deadly assassins and illegal chemists-and the list of enemies starts with her name-she must choose: let him die, or face the truth she swore she'd bury. The past comes roaring back-coated in ash and names she swore never to speak. To save him, she'll have to go back to the shadows. To the place she became a ghost. To the truth that might destroy them both. A dark, erotic romance about knives, bloodlines, and the kind of love that feels like war. Intended for a mature audience (18+) only! viewers discretion is highly advised. Started: January 1st 2025 Ended:

Book I of the Hidden Hearts Series --- In the city of Sainthollow, ruled with an iron fist by Lord Eins, fear and loyalty are his greatest weapons. His son, Lord Wels, stands in stark contrast, kind hearted, compassionate, and beloved by the people. Yet one servant, Anwen, finds herself ensnared in Lord Eins' relentless wrath. Targeted and punished for reasons she can't fathom, she endures a torment that lays bare the true cruelty of his rule. As summer's warmth settles over Sainthollow, Wels begins to notice the quiet strength and resilience that define Anwen. Her endurance sparks something within him, a need to protect her, to become her secret guardian, offering fleeting moments of mercy amidst his father's cruelty. With each stolen glance and whispered word, his feelings deepen, forcing him to confront the growing conflict between his duty to his bloodline and his urge to defy his father's oppressive reign. In a world where even the simplest kindness invites suspicion, Wels is willing to risk everything to shield Anwen from the man who should have kept her safe. As tensions mount and forbidden love blooms like summer's wildflowers, both must decide how far they are willing to go, for freedom and for each other. --- Started: October 15, 2024 Status: Complete || Soon to be published on Amazon.
