🩸 BLURB When Sanya Essien is elevated into the immortal ranks of the Thirteen (an ancient circle of Jamaican vampires who have ruled from the shadows for centuries) she loses control of her awakening power and accidentally bites a human. He isn't supposed to survive. He definetely was not supposed to transform. But Jason Richards does both. Awakening with abilities no turned vampire should possess-including the impossible talent to walk in daylight and bend minds with voice and eyes-Jason becomes a threat the Thirteen cannot predict or contain. Brought before them to be judged, he makes a dangerously simple promise: Try to kill me, and I will expose you. Instead of killing him, they make him an offer none has ever received: a place as their daylight operative, hunting the people they quietly decide should disappear so they can feed. Reluctantly, Jason agrees. But as he navigates the brutal politics of Jamaica's immortal elite, he begins to uncover fragments of a buried truth: his power may not be an accident. His bloodline may not be human. Sanya is assigned to contain him, but Jason is determined to outgrow the role they've forced upon him. And the Thirteen are starting to fear that the boy they tried to discard might be the one who can break their centuries-old rule from the inside.

The Window Between Us by Tina Jada In a quiet little town where mornings move slow and sunlight paints stories across windowpanes, two women live parallel lives divided only by an alley and the courage it takes to reach across it. Teyanna, soft-spoken and introspective, finds comfort in her morning rituals: coffee, cinnamon toast, and the golden light that reminds her of her own beauty. But what she doesn't admit, even to herself, is how often her gaze drifts to the window across the way where Jasmine lives. Jasmine, radiant and untouchable, fills her days with quiet melodies and unspoken dreams. Her music drifts through the air like a secret, drawing Teyanna closer with every note. Between them lies a thin stretch of air, a fragile connection built on light, longing, and the kind of silence that says more than words ever could. The Window Between Us is a tender, slow-burn queer romance about two souls finding each other through glass, melody, and the courage to be seen.
