Rosaline Skylar Reeves does not believe in destined love. At least, not for herself. She crafts luxury weddings for a living, flawless and extravagant celebrations choreographed down to the last rose petal. But love itself is a risk she stopped entertaining a long time ago. Her heart is off limits. Her world is curated and controlled. Until him. Calvin Blaze Kenneth, the boy from her childhood, the one who made her feel safe before she learned how to build walls around herself. He walks back into her life just as she dreams about him for the first time in years. Coincidence, maybe. But the way he looks at her now, as if he can read every thought she tries to hide, feels anything but casual. Rosaline tells herself nothing has changed. But her pulse skips when he leans too close. Her voice trembles when he says her name. And when he confesses that he has loved her all along, her carefully guarded world begins to unravel. She wants to stay composed. Professional. Distant. Untouchable. But Calvin feels like fire, and she is so tired of being cold.

"I was sold in the name of duty," she whispered. "Every time, they called it love." He clenched his fists. "Who taught you that pain is the price of belonging?" "Life," she laughed bitterly. "And people I trusted." Her voice broke. "I learned to survive without dreaming." He stepped closer. "And I will teach you how to live again." She looked away. "What if I'm already ruined?" "Then I'll love every broken piece," he said softly. Tears fell. "I'm tired of being strong." "Then rest," he murmured. "I'll carry you now." For the first time, darkness felt afraid of hope.

🌲 Bound by Wroth Hollow 🌲 Some towns vanish from maps. This one vanishes from memory. Detective Daniel Mercer arrives in Wroth Hollow seeking quiet answers. Instead, he finds a town wrapped in mist, where shadows linger longer than they should, and silence feels... rehearsed. The streets are too still. The woods, too watchful. And the deeper he digs, the more the town begins to dig back. Pulled by echoes he can't explain and names no one speaks aloud, Daniel finds himself caught between what is seen and what is felt-between truth and something far older. 🌲 Where memories rot beneath the roots, and time forgets to move forward.

A/N: THIS BOOK IS BEING RE-WRITTEN, THE ORIGINAL CHAPTERS WILL STAY POSTED BUT THE NEW VERSION DOES NOT FOLLOW THE SAME STORYLINE. In Hamelin, power sings a deadly tune, and Rowena 'Aster' Craft is caught in its melody. Born under a legacy of forbidden magic, Aster has spent her life hiding in the shadows of Hamelin, a kingdom where secrets fester and power is sung through ancient music. Controlled by her cruel stepmother, the head mage, Aster longs for freedom, unaware her caged magic is both her greatest strength and deadliest curse. When she's thrust into a secret academy where music bends reality, Aster discovers she is the key to an ancient prophecy-one tied to a lost panpipe rumored to command souls and a legacy that could bring Hamelin to its knees. The bastard prince, his smirk a veil for secrets darker than the shadows he walks, becomes an unexpected player in her fate. Drawn to each other by secrets neither can afford to share, they must navigate a world where love is as treacherous as magic. Haunted by visions of the dead and those who fear her power, Aster must unravel the truth of her lineage before the Piper's curse consumes her. In Hamelin, every sacrifice demands a song: Aster must choose if she will be its instrument or its dissonance. #1 Readers Pick of Fantasy Pitch Wars by @Fantasy 🏅 #1 in sword and sorcery 🏅 #1 in epic fantasy 🏅 #2 in magic 🏅 #2 in sacrifice

A deadly stage collapse. A message that vanished without a trace. When Detective Ryan Hale investigates the Summer Hall tragedy, he finds more than just an accident-he finds fear. Survivors refuse to talk, evidence disappears, and every lead circles back to one name: Noah Fletcher. Charming, intelligent... and utterly unreadable. As Hale gets closer to the truth, he realizes he's not just chasing a suspect-he's walking straight into a game where the rules were set long before he arrived.
