ON HOLD FOR BOARDING SCHOOL ❤️ Cecily Vey is a street girl who's lived in the slums her entire life. She's a thief, a fighter, and the smoothest talker around. In the Pits, she's known as Rook: deadly, dangerous. If you see her, run. But Rook's hiding secrets, and a lot of them. She has a power that nobody's ever seen before: the power to take somebody's pain away by carrying it herself. But if a slum girl has a power in Nimera, she's taken by the Guards and used for her powers without mercy. They turn you into a killer. Sure, Rook is already a killer. But there's a difference between being forced to fight in the pits and fighting for the people that killed your family. Prince Caelan has always lived in his brother's shadow. While his brother is powerful, deadly, and cold, Calean is softer after years of being told he's not good enough. It's not easy being the son of King Typhor, the most powerful shadow wielder ever known, and Queen Madeline, an extremely adept mind reader. His parents have always hated him for his common ability: he still wakes up drenched in sweat from memories of his mother delving into his mind in brutal, excruciating fashions, and his father's cutthroat punishments. He still has scars. And then they collide - literally - and everything changes. -- Warning: ⚠️ Mentions of abuse, swearing and violence

Everyone pours their day into a diary, and so do I. But I also love expressing my thoughts through poetry, so what if I combined the two? Featured on @newlywrittenbooks

-"She'll ruin you! She'll bring you to your knees." His answer was a prayer, murmured above me. "Even better."- ~A tale of oaths, and the people who break them~ Cassia Aurelius is a thief, an orphan, and a girl who made a terrible mistake... she ate Fae food. Now she's trapped in a realm of beautiful half-truths disguised as mercy, where the price of survival is combat. Forced into deadly trials before a crowd of merciless Fae, Cassia fights to keep her life, unaware that the game was never meant for her to win. When a dashing Fae Lord steps in to save the hapless human girl, she sees no way to live long enough to find her way home, except his unwanted offer of marriage. This Lord had his own reasons for this chivalry, however. She was not to be a bride, but a key. Hunted, terrified, and betrayed, Cassia finds an unlikely ally in the court of her betrothed. One with secrets that echo her own... one who leads her to a reclusive and broken Fae Lord who sees the darkness she hides. As war brews and ancient magic stirs, love becomes a weapon. Cassia must decide who to trust before she loses more than her home and freedom. In the Fae realm, looks can be deceiving. And after a life of hot and cold, Cassia isn't certain she can trust a "just right".

Four years ago, Juliette Bennett walked away from Mason Brooks, the golden boy of college hockey and the only person she ever truly let in, and never looked back. She rebuilt her life in silence, burying heartbreak under long nights, hospital shifts, and the one secret she swore would never see the light again: her daughter, Maisey. Mason Brooks has spent years becoming everything he was supposed to be, star forward, team leader, the future of professional hockey, without knowing the biggest piece of his life was already missing. When fate drags Juliette back into his world, the past doesn't stay buried for long. Old sparks don't just flicker, they ignite. And the truth doesn't just hurt... it changes everything. Now there's a four-year-old girl with Mason's eyes, a love that never really died, and a history built on a misunderstanding neither of them knew they were living in. Juliette wants to protect the life she fought so hard to build. Mason refuses to walk away from the one thing he never knew he had. And when a daughter becomes the center of everything between them, one question remains- Do you forgive the past... or does it destroy the future you never got to live?

Struggling to sell a single painting and drowning in student debt, Marisol Reyes, a fiercely independent but lonely artist in modern-day Chicago, is just about ready to give up on her dreams. When a mysterious storm crashes through her studio, she's pulled-brushes and all-into a world of primal beauty, where men can transform at will to different animals, cities are carved from stone and bone, and technology is nothing more than a fantasy. In this untamed realm centered around women and powered by instinct, Marisol finds herself at the center of the beastmen tribes. With no phone, no way home, and no clue how to survive in a matriarchal society where women must take multiple male consorts to stay protected, Marisol must quickly adapt-or risk becoming prey. Thrust into the spotlight, she must navigate between aggressive females, obsessive men, and unexpected desire. Armed with nothing but her creativity, courage, and the heart she wears on her sleeve, Marisol begins to uncover her place in this wild world. Maybe she doesn't need to return home after all... maybe she was meant to paint a new life here.

This is not a story about what happens. It's about what almost does. At an Ivy League medical school, Isabelle Laurent is known as the Ice Queen-brilliant, distant, untouchable. No one gets close. No one stays. Alexander Whitmore was never supposed to be different. Charming, privileged, and infamous for never staying longer than a few weeks, he understands desire. What he doesn't understand, until Isabelle, is restraint. She believes he doesn't want her. He knows wanting her openly would destroy everything. So they choose the most dangerous thing instead: friendship. "The most dangerous thing about Alexander Whitmore was not his reputation, nor his charm, nor the power he would one day inherit. It was the fact that he never asked for anything from me, and somehow, without realizing it, I had begun to give him everything that mattered." Slow burn • Dual POV • Consent • Emotional intimacy
