"His name will bear no meaning." Political-dystopia fantasy story about a controlled new world order where children are turned into symbols of fate, and a detached weapon-like man is forced to protect a boy everyone considers an omen-while both are tied to a buried past no one is admitting. In a world rewritten by fear, a boy condemned as an omen and the man ordered to handle him may become the very thing that destroys the New Age.

October 30DC GOLD - Sticker Coming Soon! Rule #1 of lying low at Kingsmore University: Don't flirt with the hockey captain. Don't make eye contact. And definitely don't get into a fake relationship with him. Honestly, just avoid him entirely. Too bad Aaron Varenko doesn't do subtle. And for the record, I don't do relationships. But the moment our eyes locked that first day on campus, the plot twist started writing itself. I was hoping to be a side character, preferably one who stays out of trouble and off-page. Too late. But, when a certain psycho from my past turns up, Aaron makes me an offer I couldn't refuse: "Let him think you're mine and he won't touch you." Totally logical right?🙄 The problem? He's a little too good at pretending. And I'm a little too good at forgetting it's not real. Now the lines are blurring and the secrets I worked so hard to bury are coming back to life. And Aaron might be the only person who can save me...or completely break me.

"𝑰 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒕𝒓𝒚 𝒕𝒐 𝒇𝒊𝒙 𝒚𝒐𝒖." Anaya Mishra has everything going for her: the looks, the money, the education, the perfect life, according to many. What more could she ask for? Her mother, a well renowned designer in the world of fashion, with her fusion of South Asian and Western culture making its splash in markets, and her father a leading entrepreneur in the tech industry, determined to make tech accessible for all. They're good people and more importantly good parents. Now all she has to do is meet her their expectations. Can't be that hard, right? Well, given that her older brother has far surpassed any expectations they had for him, all she has to do is surpass those. Abba expects university, Ammi expects ballet - but that's the last thing Anaya wants to think about. Ballet's ruined her, quietly. It's eroded from a passion, to a reminder of her naivety, her stupidity. Her brother tells her to do what she wants, what she likes, but what she likes - music, writing - isn't acceptable in their world. And then there's Wylan Colbert, the exact antithesis of Anaya in every way. A world away from Anaya's carefully curated life. He has the looks (he's been told), sure, and the education since Lindenhurst gave him the scholarship. But that's where the similarities end. He doesn't have time for frivolities like she does. Hobbies are a no, friends are a no, relationships an even bigger no. He has far bigger things to be concerned about - i.e: protecting his younger siblings from their father's vicious beatings. All he wants is some sleep at the end of his days. So, do sparks fly when their worlds collide?
