When Darlene Hathaway is discharged from the hospital, the first thing she does is go to her dance studio. Sure, she might not be taking ballet classes anymore, but it's better than being alone. The first person she meets there is Hope McKaye, an up-and-coming comic book illustrator, the only student at her high school to graduate at sixteen...and Darlene's childhood best friend, whom she drifted away from in ninth grade. Hope's happy to see her again, and she's even willing to let her stay at her apartment for as long as she needs, despite Darlene's hesitance about letting her back into her life. But her entire life can't be made up of late night walks on the cold beach and following Hope around her various jobs. Darlene has to come to terms with why she's here--why she's freeloading off of someone who used to be so close to her instead of forging her own way in life---in order to move forward.

Book Description 📖 Some faces are remembered by time itself. Hazel Singhania comes to Duskwood chasing a future she earned with blood, sweat, and sleepless nights. A medical student. A believer in forever love. A girl certain she has lived only one life. But Duskwood watches her like it knows her. Strangers stare as if she is a memory resurrected. Some offer protection she never asked for. Some carry a hatred they cannot explain. And some look at her like she is the reason they once lost everything. She has no past she can remember. No secrets she is hiding. No reason to be feared-or desired. So why does her presence awaken something ancient? Why does love feel familiar... and danger feels inevitable? Because some loves are reborn. And some curses never die. ~Tropes Expect the unexpected... " You wouldn't last an hour in the asylum where they raised me..."

Three teenagers in Scarlet Bay have gone missing, and all fingers are pointing at 28-year-old Milena Scarlat. While Milena tries to find the teenagers and the person who framed her, she receives a text from someone from her past---someone who's supposed to be dead. Former covert operative Flynn Ward knows he's on countless criminals' hit lists. When his best friend, Chase Knight, goes missing and he receives an ominous message, he knows the past is finally catching up with him. Reunited by a common enemy, Milena and Flynn must deal with unresolved feelings and, with the help of a resourceful teenager and a (possibly) genetically-enhanced cat, race against time to find the missing people.

A curse is merging their bodies cell by cell, and the only thing more terrifying than becoming one person is how badly they're starting to want it.

In the fog‑choked town of Mirageton, reality is never as solid as it seems. A man is found dead behind a shop's glass door - frozen in terror, blood smeared beneath his hands. He's the latest victim in a string of killings, each body discovered in abject horror, as if they had seen - and fought - something impossible. Across town, Ian Hale is coming apart. Plagued by migraines, violent dreams, and a reflection that doesn't always move when he does, he knows one thing for certain: something inside him is wrong. Something watching. Waiting. He wants to run, to leave the rot of Mirageton behind. But the town won't release him. Not his father, who treats him like a debt to be collected; not his own fracturing mind; and certainly not Elaine - sharp, relentless, and the daughter of the lead detective. She's hunting the truth behind the murders. And Ian may be the only thread that leads to it. One wrong move won't just expose him. It will shatter his life, hers, and everyone's in between. As suspicion spreads, an old legend bleeds into waking life. Reflections linger. Glass remembers. And the line between monster and victim begins to crack. The horror in Mirageton isn't just what's hiding in the mirrors. It's what's looking back. ONC 2026 Prompt 76: Your reflection smiles before you do and then begins mimicking things you never did.
