Lily Parker was born from two powerful bloodlines- the Gemini Coven... and the last surviving heir of the Melvraux witches. A siphoner as a father and an elemental witch as a mother. Raised in the shadows by Katherine Pierce, Lily became her mirror: sharp-tongued, untrusting, dangerous, and taught to always put herself first. Her magic-Veiled, elemental, and tied to an ancient forest spirit-has kept her alive, hidden, and alone. But when a vivid dream sends a warning pulsing through her blood, Lily does the one thing Katherine always forbade: She goes to Mystic Falls. What begins as a mission to save her mother-figure turns into something far more complicated. The moment she steps into town, old magic stirs, secrets unravel, and the past she was never meant to know begins hunting her down. And it all starts when Lily crosses paths with the Salvatore brothers, men tied to her mother's death. And she learns that there is more than what can meet the eyes.

The only thing more dangerous than a Shelby with a gun is a Shelby in love. Nell Shelby is a name spoken in whispers. She is the "Iron Princess" of the Small Heath, a woman with the calculating mind of Tommy and the defiant heart of Ada. She doesn't scream to be heard, and she doesn't use a gun when a single, well-placed word could do more damage. She is the Shelby's most lethal asset: the negotiator who never blinks. When the power struggle for London reaches a fever pitch, Tommy Shelby makes a calculated move. He sends Nell to Camden Town to oversee the distillery of the one man he can't control. The brilliant, erratic, and utterly mad Alfie Solomons. Tommy's instructions were simple: Watch him. Report back. Don't let him breathe. But behind the locked doors of the distillery, the cold war between the Lion and the Shelby turns into something far more dangerous. In the moments between business deals, Alfie finds the fire beneath Nell's silk dresses, and Nell finds the only man alive who is brilliant enough to keep her interested.

The Costantino Sequel - Featuring Costa, Millie, the twins, and all the Accardi madness readers know and love, ROCCO is a slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers descent into obsession, loyalty, and fire. The Accardi family is back. And this time, it's Rocco's turn. At 30 years old, Rocco Accardi is known for a lot of things-his temper, his recklessness, his complete disregard for consequences. As the future underboss of Sicily's most feared family, he was never meant to feel anything. Until her. Alessia Russo, 26, Palermo's top real estate agent, has spent the past three years keeping things strictly professional. Which is hard to do when your most dangerous client spends every meeting flirting like it's a sport-and you've had a crush on him since day one. He's chaos. She's control. Their relationship was never meant to cross the line. But one wrong step-and everything spirals. Rocco doesn't know how to love. But he knows how to destroy. And once he decides she's his, he'll burn the city before he lets her go. Something is coming. And nothing will be the same after it hits.

Scarlett Sovanna doesn't have time for nonsense-especially not the kind that wears a backwards cap and throws parties on Tuesday nights. As a dedicated ballerina at a top-tier arts college, her world revolves around perfect pirouettes, brutal rehearsals, and keeping her spot in the program. There's no room for distractions. Especially not him. Elliot Sinclair is college royalty-the star quarterback with a devil-may-care attitude and a line of admirers trailing behind him. He lives for the game, the thrill, and the spotlight. He and Scarlett couldn't be more different... except for one inconvenient truth: their families are practically intertwined. When Scarlett's dorm situation turns into a nightmare, the Sinclairs offer Elliot's guest room to her. Sharing a space with the person she finds most insufferable on campus? Not ideal. But as the walls come down, so do their assumptions about each other. What starts as chilly silence turns into heated banter. And somewhere between late-night talks and stolen glances, feelings develop. She's all discipline. He's all chaos. Together? They just might fall into something real.

𓅩 𓅩 𓅩 𓅩 𓅩 𓅩 Matteo Marchetti feels like he has something to prove being the new leader of the Italian Mafia, he tries his best to leave his past behind and show everyone that he's stronger than they think. Valentina King has never known anything other than being alone. She spends her time finding different ways to scrape by, like stealing from a certain mafia. At first glance the pair are total opposites, there's no way that they could be remotely involved in each others lives but the more time they spend around each other, the more they uncover and soon enough they start to realise that their lives might be more intwined than they think. #1 in stealing (15/12/21)- (7/01/22) #1 in orphan (20/1/22) #1 in kidnap #3 in opposites attract
