Isla Whitmore has always lived under bright lights-runways, cameras, the hush of silk, and spotlight. Drawn into the orbit of four men who are as different as they are devoted- a Real Estate Mogul, a History Professor, a Fashion Designer, and a Lawyer- Isla finds herself consumed by their presence. But when whispers speak of a secret cult built on an ancient myth- one that believes Isla to be their means to salvation- appear out of nowhere, will the five of them survive? A story of love and sacrifice, of hunt and patience, and of devotion that brushes the edge of insanity. Here love-fierce, loyal, and wild-is the only thing powerful enough to save her. Or to destroy them all. This is The Elysian Lies. (Book 1- The Elysian Paradox) (Book completed) Chapters 1 to 5 out Oct 29th, 2025. Promised regular updates. Twice a day.
