Game of Thrones meets Pirates of the Caribbean in this thrilling tale of war, revenge, and adventure on the high seas! Lilyth the Red, an elite assassin, made a promise to her family. She failed to keep it. Now, she will stop at nothing to hunt down the pirates who wronged her-even posing as the champion of a goddess, brainwashing an army of cultists, and igniting a war so ruthless that it threatens to awaken the ancient horrors of the Drowned Sea. Erin Rose, a street urchin, only ever cared about picking pockets with her father. But that's no longer an option. Alone, the price of survival is costly, paid in flesh and brutality. The only question is whose blood will be on her hands: her own or her newfound friends. First Mate Jameson, a pirate-turned-storyteller, left a life of violence behind him. Or so he'd thought. But life on the sea is crueler than it has ever been. Trapped between sea monsters, cultists, and pirates, Jameson's stories might be his only salvation-and the ruin of the gods. War ravages the Drowned Sea, monsters rise from its depths, and heroes drown in them. In this world where land is sparse and gunpowder rules the sea, only the villains will survive. Lilyth is coming. No one is safe. All will drown.

"This bounty is mine, Xander," He said. It was the first time I ever heard his name. Xander smirked, "Kill me first, then take her." He proposed arrogantly, a silver knife resting confidently in his hand. The man only nodded once as his hand slithered inside his jacket, pulling out another knife. "With pleasure." He finally said and stormed forward. ⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆ After her father died, Elora escaped her arranged marriage, leaving behind the only boy who had ever shown her love. But in pursuit of freedom, she suddenly found herself being hunted by every bounty hunter in the seven territories. The strongest of them all would capture her for his own selfish intentions, and Elora would quickly learn the reason why she was so valuable, who was an ally, and who was not. ⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄ Please do not get scared or bored by the first chapter, trust me, it will pick up after that;) Book One of The Mile Man trilogy. Book Two is called My Willful Flame. Book Three is My Charred Grace This story contains violence, some sexual scenes, and strong language. This is a slow burn, with emphasis on slow. If you will give it patience, the story will be rewarding later, or I hope it does. It has a lot of focus on the plot, so this is not where you will find your smut, although I do not judge even slightly. There is sexual scene, however, that is later, when the plot has been established. Dive in if you dare. ⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄ Promoted by the Stardust community and Magical community.

Death has lost its meaning. Everything is calm in Myria, where the bold claims of an undead man appear to hold no value. The dead stay dead, and the living stay living. The Myriad is a capable ship with a loyal crew, a royal insignia, one maybe-haunted room and one definitely-haunted captain. It's all still, and it's all about to move. There's an enemy out there that just refuses to die, keeping with him an old lover of the same nature. There are legends coming alive, myths becoming reality and powerful people back in the game once more. All of that is only mildly concerning, of course. The true cause of the panic? There's a lost champion. Freedom is just out of reach. * Cover by xxsoteria You may encounter mature themes in this book that are further detailed in the disclaimers chapter. This is book three in the Venture Series. It is not standalone and requires the knowledge of the first two books.

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.
