"Love is not about what you look at, but what you feel." In a world obsessed with appearances, light, and perfection, Liam has lived his entire life in the dark. Born with a condition that took his sight before he could even understand what it meant to see, he knows the world only through sound, touch, scent, and memory. To others, he is "disabled," "limited," or "living in shadows." But to Liam, his world is complete, rich with music, stories, and a clarity of mind that sighted people often lose. Elara is a young woman carrying a heavy burden. In the eyes of society, she has everything-beauty, opportunity, and a bright future. But inside, she feels broken, invisible, and constantly judged for not being "perfect enough." She hides her insecurities behind a smile, terrified that if people really saw her flaws, they would leave. When a twist of fate brings her to work as a volunteer reader and companion at the center where Liam teaches music, she expects to be the one helping him. She couldn't have been more wrong. Because Liam cannot see her face, her clothes, or the mask she wears every day, he sees something no one else does: her soul. He listens to her voice and hears her pain. He holds her hand and feels her strength. He talks to her and understands her heart. For the first time in her life, Elara feels truly seen-by the one man who has never seen anything at all. But their love is not without obstacles. Faced with misunderstanding, pity from others, and the fear that their differences are too great to overcome, they must learn that beauty is not found in the light, but in the darkness where true feelings grow. Beautiful in Darkness is a touching story about how love helps us find the light within ourselves, proving that the deepest connections are formed not with our eyes, but with our hearts.

[ONGOING - POSTING EVERY FRIDAY] The world is too loud, too bright, and far too crowded. For years, I've hidden behind thick white silks and the safety of my marigolds, speaking to the petals in my mind because words always feel like jagged rocks in my throat. In the Meadow Pack, I am the quiet one, a girl of shadows and soil, waiting for a Mating Ceremony I never wanted. Then the forest breathed, and he stepped out of the willow trees. He wasn't like the others. He didn't smell of heavy perfumes or forced grace. He smelled of crushed mint and the deep, solid scent of a forest after a storm. He was a mountain of black fur and scars, a beast the stories warned me about, the Alpha of Stormridge. They call him a monster. They say his heart is as dark as the ink on his skin. But when our eyes locked, the noise in my head finally went silent. For the first time, I didn't want to hide. He is the storm to my sunlight, the growl to my silence. He doesn't know how to be gentle, and I don't know how to live in his loud, violent world. But the moon doesn't make mistakes, and my blood hums a song only he can hear. The wolf with the scarred eye has found me. And for the first time, I think I'm ready to let the silk fall.

They said the Hunt was sacred. That if I was chosen, it meant fate. But fate didn't feel like a mouth on my skin or claws at my back. It felt like blood. Mine. For years, I stayed hidden. Quiet. Unclaimed. I stole seeds from the state fields, grew food in secret, fed my family from soil and silence. I did everything right - stayed beneath their radar, beneath their noses. I didn't make waves. I didn't ask for more. But monsters never forget a scent. And when the Hunt came, I was scented. Tracked. Taken. I stabbed him. I buried the blade in his shoulder and watched him bleed. It didn't matter. Because he still bit me. And the world saw. Now my face is on every screen. The girl who didn't run. The girl who fought back. Some call me a rebel. Some call me a mate. But they all forget one thing. I wasn't made to be claimed. I was made to survive. And if they want to collar me, cage me, crown me - they'll have to reckon with everything I've kept buried beneath the roots. Because I am not the flower. I'm the fire beneath it. Rewrite version of formerly known book Escaping the monsters Embrace

Jane Blackridge has no illusions about herself. She knows herself to be no great beauty, yet she possesses what Society too often undervalues: a sharp mind, an observant eye, and a tongue inclined toward wit rather than flattery. Content to remain in the shadow of prettier debutantes, Jane intends only to endure her first Season with dignity intact. Nathaniel Ashworth, heir to the Marquess of Worthington, has never known what it is to be overlooked. Handsome, charming, and assured of his place in society, he moves through ballrooms with effortless grace, the object of admiration from every quarter. Yet beneath the polish lies the constant weight of expectation-the heir, the model son, the man who must never falter. When his attention falls upon the unassuming Miss Blackridge, no one is more surprised than Jane herself. Her calm indifference unsettles him, her quiet humor disarms him, and soon Nathaniel finds himself drawn to the one woman who refuses to be dazzled. What begins as sport becomes something far more dangerous: a contest of pride and perception, where one risks his heart, and the other, her trust. But when the truth behind his courtship comes to light, Jane's trust is shattered - and Nathaniel must decide whether to defy society's expectations, or to lay himself bare for the for the only woman who ever saw him clearly. To Woo a Duchess is a Regency tale of sharp minds, subtle flirtation, and the unexpected power of seeing - and being seen - for who you truly are. COMPLETE

A Marriage in trouble story. They were the "couple goals" from the moment they met in high school. The ones everyone believed would make it. Ten years later, their once-solid marriage begins to fracture under the weight of vicious gossip, half-truths, and misplaced trust. As outsiders worm their way into their private world, Paige and Trevor are forced to confront what's real, what's been lost, and where their loyalties truly lie.

Historical context: By the time the Powers had caged Napoleon Bonaparte (Boney) his armies had ravaged all Europe. Only little England remains unscathed but for her soldiers. Her citizens were only touched emotionally. Soldiers return to crowds of hero-worshipers. The younger brother of the guillotined Louis 16th is propped up on the throne of France vacated by the Emperor Napoleon. But the ogre's old Grande Armee chafes on the bit of idleness and King Louis's aristocrats pant for revenge. Story: Peacetime is no more tranquil than wartime for some families. The Darnleys are in debt. What is the solution? Their children must marry money. But while showing obedience, the siblings form their own ideas. Could the perfect partners fall for them? Could they fall for the perfect partners? Do perfect partners even exist? Politics refuses to bury the past. Covered intrigues and grudges must surface. Secrets decades old collide and rock foundations. Reputation and wealth is everything. War might return. Extract: "You are three-and-twenty and have been nine months in the army. You are inclined to kick up larks, gamble, game, bet, and flirt with actresses. You want taming. In a few words, you want a wife. Our house is on a financial precipice. Any gust of wind could push us onto the rocks below. We want wealth. Look about you at this season's debutants. Neglect the belles backstage. Look around you with a keen and serious eye. Before you have only inspected society beauties with a mind for dalliance. Now inspect them for the qualities that might suit you in a wife. I cannot dictate them. You are familiar with your own tastes. Let her be decent. Let her be comely and, above all, let her be wealthy." Completing this speech, Lord Darnley placed his fingertips together and awaited his son's response with a touch of his former anxiety.

Lady Helena Blackwell enters her first Season expected to be chosen-never to choose. But when she crosses paths with Gabriel Bennett, Viscount Hays, their quiet connection ignites into something dangerous and undeniable.

When blackmail threatens to drag her back into scandal, Gabriel refuses to let her face it alone. Yet love does not silence the past so easily. Helena must stand against a mother who treats her like a bargaining chip, while Gabriel confronts the legacy of a family that taught him distance instead of devotion. Judged, whispered about, and pushed toward obedience, Helena chooses him anyway-learning that courage sometimes means disappointing everyone else. Set against glittering ballrooms and moonlit gardens, their story is one of defiance, resilience, and learning to stay-proving that real love is not perfect, but fiercely brave.
