In the kingdom of Lysandria, where power is won in the glittering halls of the palace and love is a dangerous game, Magnolia Rosenthal faces a fate she never chose. Forced by her ambitious mother to enter the newly introduced Trials - a ruthless competition to win the hand of Prince Kyrell Lysander - Magnolia must navigate a world of opulence, deception, and deadly ambition. But beneath the prince's charming smile lies a darker truth: his uncle, the cold and ruthless King Soren Lysander, rules with iron will and a heart as unforgiving as the palace walls. As Magnolia is drawn deeper into the deadly game, she must fight not only for survival, but for the chance to reclaim her own freedom and identity. Torn between a secret love from her past and the dangerous allure of the king, Magnolia's journey is one of heartbreak, courage, and the unyielding fight to control her own destiny.

Love doesn't always need words. Sometimes, it just needs someone to stay. When Louis is admitted to a quiet recovery clinic, he's expecting discomfort, isolation, maybe silence. What he finds instead is a shared room-and an unexpected connection-with the Styles triplets: quiet Edward who rarely speaks, clever Marcel battling anxiety, and radiant Harry navigating hallucinations. As the days pass, bonds form. Healing begins. And in the quiet moments between sketches, stargazing, and soft laughter, Louis starts to feel something he never thought he'd find again: hope. A story of healing, found family, and the kind of love that doesn't need to be loud to be real.

Some men ride to escape the past. Jack Rourke rides to survive it. Jack's lost everything that tethered him to the world-his brother, his best friend, and any sense of peace. Now, at twenty-nine, he drinks too much, rides too fast, and takes courier jobs that pay in cash and silence. His bike, Widow, is the only thing that still responds when he screams. But then there's her-Eve. She's sharp-eyed, ink-stained, and working dead-end night shifts at a petrol station off the A2. Jack isn't looking to be saved, and Eve isn't trying to save anyone. But when their paths collide, the road begins to bend-pulling them through grief, violence, moments of aching tenderness, and the kind of connection that makes you forget you're broken. In a city that never sleeps and a past that refuses to stay buried, Jack has to choose: keep running, or risk everything to feel something real-just once. Before the road runs out.

After decades of misrule, the fate of the Empire of Sanressia hangs in the balance. Throughout the realm, the great and powerful await the demise of the ailing Emperor Sigismund, eager to exploit the uncertainty of succession for their own ends. As the most influential people of the realm descend upon the capital of Renewal, the future of the Empire appears murky. The court is powerless to stop the re-emergence of factions and contradictory visions for the future. Within the growing chaos are three who may yet have a larger role to play than they believe. Lady Ladislava, a young noblewoman of one of Sanressia's subject kingdoms, dreams of assisting her best friend in her mission to bring long overdue reform and support the people of the Empire. Sir Zachary, the only son of a house accused of treachery twice over and derided as heretics, longs to restore the honour of his family and faith in the eyes of the those that once counted his forebears as equals. General Frieda, a rising star of the Imperial Army from the humblest of origins, wants only to uphold her oath and defend the Empire and its citizens from all enemies, both those without, and those within. All of them wish for a peaceful and more just Empire. But as plans laid long in advance come to fruition, deals are struck behind closed doors, and engines of war are made ready, the fate of Sanressia may already be sealed. Content Warnings: Violence, war, poisoning, disease, religious persecution and xenophobia.
