In chapters with * there will be mature content. Also, I had a hard time choosing the male lead character... At the end, the story flow and the characters decided for me. So, if you are up for a little game, try finding this ML before he reveals himself! Finally, English is not my native language. I'm sorry if you find grammatical mistakes.

𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐚 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐫. 𝐇𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐬𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧'𝐭. On the wild Danish coast, two broken souls collide-drawn together by secrets, silence, and a desire they can't name. In a town that remembers every whisper, love is just another way to drown. ❝𝐈 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠,❞ I spit, though my pulse betrays me. ❝𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐛𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐛𝐲 𝐡𝐢𝐦.❞ He doesn't smile. He doesn't swear. He takes the last half step like a verdict. ❝𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝,❞ he growls, brutal and soft at once. ❝𝐈 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧'𝐭 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐡𝐨𝐰.❞ Alexis Carter was born to sing, to fill rooms with light-until the spotlight burned her alive. Now, along the wind-brushed Danish coastline, she learns that healing isn't peace; it's confrontation. That love can be a miracle or a mirage. That sometimes the people we trust to save us are the ones who teach us how to breathe alone. The Summerhouse is a story of friendship, love, betrayal, and the tender truth that surrender and survival are often the same thing. A haunting exploration of loss, self-sabotage, and the quiet courage it takes to stay. The sea keeps its secrets, but the truth always returns with the tide.

Meera had always dreamt in colors no one else could see, indigo skies, silver rain, and a face that shimmered between memory and myth. In the modern city of Varanasi, she lives quietly, painting forgotten temples and lost goddesses, unaware that her art is awakening echoes from another lifetime. In her dreams, she is the poet-saint who once sang of Krishna, not as a god, but as the soul she could never unlove. Every brushstroke she paints now becomes a whisper from that past life, calling her to remember what her soul once vowed: that love is not a wound to be healed, but a path to divine freedom. When she meets Arjun, a musician with eyes that hold ancient recognition, her carefully built world begins to dissolve. He isn't just a man; he's the doorway between her past and her liberation. But to find him again, Meera must finally face what she denied across lifetimes - that the divine she sought in others has always lived within her. As time folds, dreams bleed into daylight, and art becomes prayer, Meera's final birth becomes her first awakening. A love story that spans lifetimes - not to unite two souls, but to dissolve the illusion that they were ever apart.

In the heart of the 18th century, power is everything-and betrayal lurks in every shadow. Siya Randhawa, a master spy with a vendetta, is hired to infiltrate the Rajvanshi Haveli. Her mission: uncover the secrets of the royal family and expose the crown king, Raghubir Rajvanshi-a man she despises with every fiber of her being. To the world, Siya is a simple music teacher, charming and gentle, blending effortlessly into the royal household. But the Rajvanshis are not as they seem. Behind velvet curtains and gilded halls lie dangerous secrets, tangled loyalties, and hidden rivalries that could destroy anyone who dares uncover them. And then there's Raghubir-the crown king himself. Cold, commanding, and unreadable, he moves like a shadow, observing everything, his silence more terrifying than any weapon. As Siya navigates the perilous corridors of the haveli, she must decide: follow her orders or confront the unexpected truths that bind the family-and the king-to secrets darker than she imagined. Trust becomes a weapon, love a danger, and every melody she plays hides a note of deception. In a world where every glance could betray, and every step could be her last, Siya's greatest challenge may not be her mission... but the man she's meant to destroy. I

In this dramatic dystopian novel set in ancient Atlantis, prepare for romance, betrayal, and adventure. Atlantis stands on the precipice of chaos. In the floating Capital, a political coup shakes the continent to its core, threatening to unravel what little stability remains. As ancient technology collides with forbidden magic and a powerful A.I. religion tightens its grip, familiar faces and new players emerge to fight for a world on the brink of collapse. Among them is Inanna, a noblewoman who has spent her life in the shadow of her powerful Sumeri family. But when the empire fractures, she is thrust into a storm of danger, deception, and destiny. She finds herself drawn to Ibris Mansa--a towering, charismatic man with the horns of the sacred Atlantean bull, a genetically engineered halfbreed, rebel solider turned Underworld titan. Torn between the weight of her family's legacy and the pull of Ibris, Inanna must make choices that could reshape the world forever. With betrayal at every turn and the empire's fate hanging by a thread, Inanna and Ibris walk a treacherous path of power, passion, and peril. In a land where ancient secrets linger in the ruins and the line between machine and magic blurs, every decision she makes carries the weight of history itself. "The Sky Gods of Atlantis" is a science fantasy novel based in the Third World Universe created by author Sunny Ghauri. It offers a fantastical retelling of the stories of Atlantis. Though a sequel to "The Halfbreeds of Atlantis," it stands alone as a complete novel.
