Claude Pierre Frollo is more than just a silent leader of Paris, and Esmeralda knows that. His eyes hide a secret darker than the catacombs of the city. With a steel fist, he governs over the church and the city, striking fear into the hearts of grown men with just a look. With anger and malice he drives away the Gypsy people, his age old hatred for them running deeper than the tunnels of the Palace. She is both irritated and intrigued by the dark, brooding leader; and everyday she gets curiouser and curiouser. Is he really the evil fiend the town paints him to be...or is there a man worth dying for hidden underneath? Can there be any relationship between an outcast and a priest? Or will he give in to his hateful character and kill the woman he claims to love? ******** This is the story of a priest who fell deeply in love with a gypsy, a woman who was one of the outcasts he wanted to get rid of. Read on as he tries to prove his love and disprove the church while trying to cover his sins. Can he do both? Or will he be consumed by his condemned conscience? A fairytale rewrite of Victor Hugo's most famous stories, THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME!

Moira is probably the strangest teenager you'll ever meet... Strolling through a blizzard in the snow-covered streets of London with a book or two in hand might be weird, but causing a grown man to vanish into thin air is definitely weirder. Determined to remain a wallflower in order to protect her strange abilities, capturing the interest of the narcissistic Kieran Wright seems to change things...and not exactly in a good way. All it takes are a series of strange events, a mysterious talking tree spirit and the enigma that is Alvar Blackheart, to make Moira question her sanity. But the truth is unquestionable that humans aren't the only beings in the universe; other dimensions are host to millions of Supernaturals, with the majority wanting her dead. Could this be the adventure she seeks right at her fingertips? What is Moira and how can she keep the world from discovering her secret? Beautiful cover by me! ALL RIGHTS RESERVED @2018

Or so they assume... She's beautiful yet silent, not by a defect, she simply dislikes to mingle with gossip.Yet she has emotional scars that no one sees behind her smile, but a few. Cover by @forcade
