In the enchanting kingdom of Veridonia, where magic flows through every part of daily life, traditions and ancient spells hold a quiet power over the realm. Lady Adeline Wycliffe, the adventurous and spirited daughter of Viscount Wycliffe, dreams of a life unfettered by noble expectations. With a sharp mind, a kind heart, and a secret gift for magic, she yearns to explore the world beyond the rigid walls of nobility. But her aspirations come to an abrupt halt when her family arranges her marriage to the enigmatic Duke of Wintermere, a man she's heard of only in whispers. Duke Lucien Valenhart is known for his honor, his strategic brilliance, and the aura of winter that seems to follow him. Steadfast in duty but guarded at heart, Lucien sees marriage as a necessity, a way to strengthen alliances. Love, to him, is a luxury he cannot afford. Bound by duty but brought together by circumstance, Adeline and Lucien find themselves navigating the grandeur of court life and the quiet magic that fills the Duke's estate. Facing unexpected dangers, enchanting mysteries, and the warmth of small, shared moments, they begin to see each other in a new light. But to truly find one another, they must first let down their walls and open their guarded hearts.

In the realm of Quomared, which occupies the biggest part of the continent, magic is a scarce and precious resource. Fewer and fewer humans are born magic bearers throughout the last decades. Zaretha is the only daughter of the Alsayid, religios leader and grand mage of the country, the most powerful still-living sorcerer on the continent in service of the emperor. She is, however, born empty, magicless, to everyone's disappointment. An attempt at a coup d'etate takes place after her twelfth birthday, and her father is assassinated under mysterious circumstances. An orphan now, she is brought to live in The Priory of the White Stones, a home for girls from families that have or had magic-bearing members. They are schooled to be concubines or wives that a noble family can acquire for their heir, because even if magic-less, they still carry the gene and have a fifty percent chance to bear a magic-yielding child. __________________ Mentions: Please don't copy and all that. It makes no sense; just write your own story :). My stories are for mature audience. There will be violence, gore, explicit sex and other stuff not meant for kids. Proceed at your own risk. I will point out the more intense ones but questionable stuff might be all over so if you are sensitive DO NOT read. English is not my first language, feel free to point out the spelling errors, I always appreciate that. I am generally always really happy about Feedback. :) To set expectations correctly, this is my most high fantasy leaning, lore heavy book. It will take time till you get to the romance. Once you get there, there will be stuff 😏 but till then only crumbs. 😂

Sky Gods is a dystopian twist on a traditional romance, where love unfolds within a crumbling empire and long-buried, ancient secrets. 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.

★𝐀𝐌𝐁𝐘𝐒 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟑 𝐓𝐎𝐏 𝐏𝐈𝐂𝐊 - 𝐇𝐔𝐌𝐎𝐑 𝐍𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐋★ As Poll and Eujae, they can't stand each other. As Ten-Ten and Gaele, they care for one another. Art major Apollo Helios Torres and business student Eujae Nigel Castillo have been clashing with each other since their first day of university. They've been arguing for so long that they both believe there's no chance for them to be in good terms even in another universe. Unbeknownst to them, they have been getting along just fine in the internet world. 𝘔𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘮𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦. 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘧𝘪𝘥𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘴 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦. Is it possible for a person to adore someone they've always disliked? One has to be insane to think that it is. But then again, Fate always manages to create some crazy twist. Content warning: swearing, a few (maybe two or three) sexual innuendos throughout the book, and discussion of certain social issues. Nothing explicit. Nothing that would warrant a change of rating to mature.

Life is like a rollercoaster, it has its ups and downs, but it's your choice whether to scream or enjoy the ride... When life's rollercoaster throws you off track, do you scream, or do you hold on tight? For Ira and Rudraksh, the journey is far from smooth: one suffocating under the weight of failure, the other nursing a heart shattered into pieces. Two strangers caught in life's ugliest turns, where every step forward is a fight against invisible battles. This is not a story of being saved by each other, but of learning to live despite the wreckage, of finding the courage to stand when the ground never stops shaking. But if their paths converge-bringing their emotions and differences-will they find solace in each other, or will those very differences pull them apart? ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️ GENRES: General Fiction • Literary Fiction • Contemporary • New Adult • Realistic Fiction ⚠️ Disclaimer: This story is a work of imagination, entirely original and fictional.

@YARomance Undiscovered Book of the Month, December 2022 Multiple times featured. The magic of first love, set against the backdrop of a small island hidden beneath a mysterious fog. At first sight, the tiny Foggy Island promises Liam an uneventful summer, with the haunting prospect of starting a new school at the end of it. But does this magical, sleepy place hide something else? Is there something, someone lurking beneath the fog, expecting him? Maybe an old mystery waiting to be solved? Trigger warning: An old case of suicide is mentioned in the story. It is a part of the unsolved mystery from the Victorian Era and doesn't directly affect any of the main characters. This story was crafted around three short words : a broken key, an old book, a smell of rain.
