Some people are born enemies. Others are born for each other. Rarely are they the same person. Raven Aragon has one rule: stay hidden. Magic is a death sentence, witches are hunted, and the dragons who serve the Crown don't ask questions before they burn. But when desperation drives her into the Celestial Games, a brutal tournament where warriors compete for glory and blood, she comes face-to-face with the one person who could destroy everything: Kael Ash, the King's most lethal dragon sentinel, whose sole purpose is hunting witches like her. He's ice and fury wrapped in dragon skin. She's fire and lies barely concealed by a glamour. They hate each other with a passion that feels dangerously close to something else. When her glamour shatters and her true face is revealed, his dragon roars a word that will damn them both: Mate. Now, with the kingdom hunting them and an ancient curse awakening, they have a choice: honor the war that made them enemies, or forge an alliance that could destroy everything they've ever known.

Maya Thornton vets manuscripts for publishers, finding the dangerous details authors shouldn't include. But when The Ravine lands on her desk, she recognizes the murder-a real unsolved case from her hometown. Every detail matches perfectly. Details the police never released. The author must be the killer. As Maya investigates the elusive E. Winters, her own memories begin to fracture. Notes in her handwriting she doesn't remember. Security footage from places she's never been. Evidence in her apartment she couldn't have planted. Unless she did. The manuscript she's been reading isn't a confession. It's a mirror. __________________________________________________ A psychological thriller about memory, identity, and the lies we tell ourselves.

Scarlett Rodriguez thought she was just spending the night in a creepy old bedroom for her latest ghost-hunting case. But the Rose Room has other plans.

The past is about to repeat itself, and Scarlett knows how it ends: in heartbreak, lies, and death. Now she has one night, one ball, and one impossible choice that could change history. The Rose Room isn't just haunted-it's holding onto a truth that's been waiting 200 years to be set free.

Good girls don't lie. Right? Elira Maxwell is everything a daughter should be: obedient, soft-spoken, devout. The kind of girl who never causes trouble and never tells the truth unless asked. But when her father, a beloved pastor, dies under suspicious circumstances, Elira becomes the only thread left to pull. Her diary, that Detective Marco Lorne snuck out, is clean. Too simple. And he has started to wonder if innocence is just another kind of mask. Good Girls Don't Lie is a chilling psychological thriller about silence, control, and what happens when a girl stops playing by the rules.

Meher Vishwanathan talks too much, laughs too loud, and always packs extra food-just in case. Aarav Malhotra is the boy who says nothing at all. Years later, in a new city, their paths cross again. This is a story about unexpected reunions, silent connections, and the love that simmers quietly between shared meals and second chances. Warm, witty, and full of flavor, The Extra Tiffin is a slow-burn rom-com that celebrates friendship, food, and all the things we leave unsaid-until we don't. Because sometimes, the smallest gestures become the ones you never forget.
