Luca Chessman has been longing for love his entire life. The only problem is-he can't seem to find a guy that likes him the same way. With his family cafe, Chessman's, struggling to keep afloat and no help from the bank, he's slowly accepting the demise of their business which he holds so dearly to his heart. Declan Nash is a regular at Chessman's who wears an expensive suit everyday and sits at the back on his laptop mysteriously-whilst being stupidly good looking. It's safe to say he's caught Luca's eye but with no confidence to speak to him, all Luca can do is smile, take his order and admire from afar. After a robbery at the cafe, leaving Luca with minor wounds and an empty till, Declan soon realises the future of the cafe. He decides to step in and help them get their business back on its feet with a cash loan from himself. But as they grow closer, Luca calls Declan his miracle but does he know his true intentions? - This book is the second book in the Silver Linings Series. You can read this as a stand-alone or read Signs From The Universe before to meet these characters. Tropes: - age-gap (10 years) - bxb - millionaire/wealthy man - forced proximity - found family - spicy scenes

The Howl of the Forsaken LitRPG | Dark Fantasy | Sci-Fi/Fantasy Apocalypse. Four hundred years ago, the world shattered. Portals tore through the sky, merging Earth with realms of bloodthirsty Vampires, savage Lycans, and nightmarish Demons. Humanity barely clings to survival in the last 45 mega-cities scattered around the world. Kael Bloodfang was born into nobility but cast out like trash. Half-human. Half-lycan. And worst of all-an Omega with no ability. Scavenging the ruins of the forgotten world, Kael scrapes by in the shadows of hunters, monsters, and machines. But when a brutal encounter triggers a mysterious system unlike any other, Kael unlocks a path none have walked before: The Eclipse Forge. No shadows. No minions. Only constructs, twisted from Rift-warped metal and burning with raw energy. Now hunted by monsters, hunted by men-and haunted by the bloodline that cast him out-Kael must rise. To evolve. To forge. To howl loud enough that even the gods hear it. Will he survive the Rift? Or be devoured before the world sees what a Forsaken is truly worth?

Determined to prove himself, Naruto will rise beyond the expectations of his clan, the village, and even the shinobi world. But wielding such power comes at a cost.

[BOOK 1] After a war over a century ago, there have been several laws set in place to restrain the rights of individuals with special abilities-most commonly referred to as abnormals. The Nocona family came to power during the worldwide conflict, resulting in Marley Nocona becoming the eventual heir to a throne that will rule an entire half of the planet. However, after an incident that reveals him to be a member of the abnormal race, he is sent to 1-A IAP, where he is to be studied until a cure is found. This is the plan, until of course he meets a man named Nero Accardi. Said man happens to hate his entire family with a burning passion-not exactly uncommon amongst the residents in the institution. Marley, now forced to deal with a moody roommate and an extremely inconvenient abnormality, feels as though the world is just generally out to get him. His life is only complicated further when it becomes apparent that not only is Nero his only way out of the place, but he also has a tendency to make Marley question everything he's ever known. Marley is positive of one thing, though, and that is the fact that he needs to do anything possible to ensure his kingship- It's the only way to finally correct the world that his predecessors have wronged so cruelly. [] [] [] [General Warnings: um I guess age gap? Marley is 17 then 18 and Nero is 20 so if you have an issue with that then I don't recommend reading. Also blood/gore and it gets kinda graphic because this dude happens to get injured. A lot.] [Mature Warning: sexual content, swearing, & past physical (and verbal) abuse. The abuse is not explicitly graphic or anything, but it still has an impact on the story.] ❦ AN: I promise you this book is not as dark as the warnings are ok. give me a chance or don't I'm not your dad

Harlan has a unique power, one that makes him see things others cant, and therefore got him thrown in an asylum when he was only a child. Now he's a reluctant hero, thrust into the profession since he lacked any other option. He's amazing at his job, and six years into his work, is the sidekick to one of the most notable heroes of his generation: Lavina. Unfortunately, he also hates being a hero, but there's one thing that makes it worth it. The numbered. A series of villains who appeared out of nowhere and have an exceptional skill at avoiding the law, heroes, and just generally winning or evading consequences. Consequences, which are the only part of Harlan's job he enjoys. Harlan wants to find the root of it all more than anything, and he's beginning to get close. He intends to find out at any cost. He intends to win at any cost. That, he's sure of. His drive is unmatched. Until something entirely foreign to him gets involved: Feelings. [WARNINGS: smut, gore, swearing, some heavy topics, morally grey characters (the usual)]
