"I always thought I was the ocean, you know? Always reaching for things I can't have. Always crashing into people who don't want me back. The moon pulls. The ocean follows. Even when it hurts." "You don't have to, Noah. Why can't you stay? Why can't the ocean stay with the shore?" *** Noah Reed has spent years trying to outrun the boy he used to be- the one who froze under his father's fists, the one who kissed a stranger under the stars and watched him disappear. When Noah and his mother escape their violent home and move to Novacrest, he's prepared to rebuild quietly: new school, new friends, a job at a café, and maybe-finally-something like peace. Milo, the sweet, steady football player who keeps showing up for him, feels like exactly that. Until Noah sees him. Eli Blake. Quarterback. Golden boy. Untouchable. And the first boy Noah ever kissed. Eli acts like he doesn't remember him at all. But his eyes say something else-fear, anger, longing, something sharp enough to cut. Thrown together for a biology project, their old summer-camp secret forces its way back, tearing open every wound Noah has tried to bury. And just when Noah's heart begins leaning toward Milo, Eli breaks through his defenses... and kisses him again. Now the past is unraveling, the truth is clawing its way out, and Noah has to choose between the boy who makes him feel safe and the boy who makes him feel seen. Because oceans don't choose what pulls them. But Noah has to- before he breaks apart for good. Book One in the Ocean & Moon series.

When unrelenting darkness swallows the country you love, and the people you swore to protect are slaughtered, what's left to fight for? The answer is simple-each other. Nicolas and his followers are forced into a final push to end this nightmare, but their resolve is shattered when Nicolas is captured. He is torn apart, both physically and mentally, pushed to the very edge of his sanity. The torture he endures is cruel and unrelenting, not just in the body but in the mind. The pain is overwhelming, but the worst wounds are those that dig into his soul-doubts planted, fears twisted, and the haunting whispers that claw at his thoughts. Every ounce of strength he has left is tested, and his mind might break under the weight of it all. Yet, even as his spirit is crushed, he clings to the only thing that keeps him from fully unraveling-the ones he loves, the promise to end this torment, and the undeniable will to survive. But as the mental torture intensifies, so does the pressure to make the most challenging choices of his life. Now, with the help of his followers, he must push past the shattered remnants of his mind and body, overcome impossible odds, and face the twisted mastermind who has tormented them from the start-the one who has caused all this destruction. There will be no mercy. The time for hesitation has passed. There is no more survival-it's them or us. The final confrontation is upon them, but is it truly the end?

"We caused the end of the world. Turns out it's easier than you might think it is. All you need is a group of eco anarchists and an ounce of magic, and the world goes down in a poof." After another manic episode, Phoenix gets written off his parents' will, and he's trying to find a reason to keep living. Causing the end of the world and being the only one who can save the world wasn't exactly what he had in mind. Phoenix wasn't meant to have magical abilities, and he most definitely shouldn't have been able to make all the money in the world disappear just by thinking about it. To make matters worse, it came with a minor side effect: a disease called Gold fever. In other words, people started to turn into gold. Over the course of a single day, Phoenix becomes the most hated person in the world. As the economy collapses around them, only three of his friends are willing to stay by his side. Their job is to keep Phoenix alive while he tries to make money reappear and find a cure to Gold fever. Which turns out to be more challenging than they thought, as they find out someone is tailing Phoenix with the intention to kill.
